Oooohhhh Aaaaahhhhh

That mask on King Hiss is probably the most frightening thing there. Well done! It reminds me of those masks Crusader kings wore.

Modulok was an amazing piece. There's been a MOTU movie in the works for like 15 years now but it keeps getting tabled or shuffled to new writers. I would not mind at all if this artist got hired to work on the project. Bravo.

Ay what the fuck everybody got custom titles under their name but me or something?

Just a reminder that grammar matters and so does punctuation.

Yikesssss

How crazy is it that I wrote a story (beginning of a book I never finished, actually) about a school shooter setting off the fire alarm before wreaking havoc.

I had told my wife about my unfinished story just last night.

Actual statement heard in the office today:

"Hey Missy, it's Chris from Control Systems. I just wanted to see if, in the next 45 minutes, I could come down there and calibrate your little oven."

Oxford Commas are a legislative drafters best friend. I'll never hear a word against them.

Scotty! You've been missed. Hope you're doing well!

Scotty returns.

The days of Day 1 inactives are numbered.

It’s definitely been a while [mention]MovingPictures07[/mention] ! I don’t think I even remember how to play mafia.

I’ve been busy busy busy and my entire schedule has changed, but it’s nice to check back in here and see y’all still thriving, you old farts!

RIP Billy Graham

It's been like old home month.

Just had a burst of creativity and came up with those:

Supertown JJJ Facts.

Supertown JJJ doesn't lynch baddies. He ends their suffering.

Supertown JJJ is always town. if his role card says mafia, it just means he is in a town with a lower number of people, because he asked the host for a bigger challenge before the game started.

Supertown JJJ doesn't sleep. He prepares his next rainbow list in his dreams.

Supertown JJJ has an avatar of an angry teddy bear because he once tried to put an avatar of himself with an angry face, and the mafia started crying and gave up on Day 1.

If Supertown JJJ asks you a question, it's not because he wants to know the answer. He already does. It's just that he is hoping you'll say something funny so that he may have a quote to submit for the next Sockys.

As Supertown JJJ plays your game, he is also analysing your game design. When the game ends, he will provide a full analysis of your game's balance, including a full calculation of your score according to his balance worksheet.

Supertown JJJ is a Game Facilitator because he wants to let other players have fun too every once in a while.

Supertown JJJ is secretely color blind. He uses colors in rainbow lists because he needs to get a godamn challenge somewhere.

I wish someone did that about me... le sigh

It's all true, I'm the greatest.

This is my favourite.

But you don't understand why he does game facilitation. It's so that he can observe human emotion without the hassle of having to reply to it.

My personal fav was: Supertown JJJ is always town. if his role card says mafia, it just means he is in a town with a lower number of people, because he asked the host for a bigger challenge before the game started.

"Hey DH sign up for a game" they said
"We miss you" they said
"It'll be fun" they said


Signed up for two games like three weeks ago and neither have started one has been full for two days and I still don't even know the theme of the game :P

Get ready for a game to start, DH. It’s happening.

In about two hours, probably.

I see now this was a vicious and calculated joke.

No joke - t minus not-long-now.

I want you guys to know that Aces asked to spend time with me today and I told him no because "The Game is starting literally any minute now" And this was 3 hours ago and he's doing other things now.

So DH, at 3:14 pm Golden said things were starting "in about 2 hours". We haven't even reached that point yet.

At 2:31pm EST Golden told me "It's Happening"

Good call, argue with the hosts before the game, I am sure they are very fair and won't hold it against you, they are very nice people

It's happening.

Or is it?

Now it's happening.

Apparently GoC really is just for the champions who can play. The rest of us don’t even get to watch.

Sorry about that.

Fun thing is you can play AND watch INH's Twin Peaks game G-Man if you haven't already signed up.

This should now be fixed. It took a bit of fancy permissions maneuvering, but everything's all set for spectators to be able to see stuff now.

Mafia is my mistress and I’ve learned that I can never have just a quick fling.

I always overextend myself and get behind at work, so I am using every ounce of willpower in me to avoid signing up for a game right now.

TEN YEARS!!

The best and most impactful LOST episode.

When it aired, I ended up standing and laughing and crying and cheering at the same time.

From the article:

"In other episodes, flashbacks are announced with a whoosh sound. But as Desmond’s mind literally flashes back and forward, there’s no announcement sound, just timelines slipping through in a moment. (Charming: For the first time on Lost, a character onscreen knows the flashbacks are happening, the non-diegetic trope gone hyper-diegetic, like if one day Jack Bauer reached across the 24 splitscreens to grab the latest terrorist-affiliated evil corporate white guy, or if Darth Vader started humming “The Imperial March.”)"

Not only did I get to learn a new word... I just love his examples.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S TEN YEARS!!

I know.

And yes, it was so perfect. The Constant is actually why I kept holding out hope the last season. I knew how perfect it could be, what LOST was capable of.
