I think the fire ring looks pretty cool. Plus I was able to pick up a handy trick from reading the posts. Heck ya it gets a vote!
very well written.
I love when she's not lingering in my conciousness eating carrots, does that count? (08/14/06 update - by the way, for anyone confused by that comment - she was in the movie 'what's up doc' which i don't really remember other than she ate a carrot at one point)
I think this is an amazing example of the breadth of talent on this board. I got caught up in all 3 pieces. The first one because of it's emotional content that seemed oddly familiar without really being mine, and the other two, which both seem to deal, in their own ways, of the seeds of change that are lying dorment in each of us and waiting for that spring thaw to begin their journey to fruition. Very well done indeed.
Looks like you win my vote, too.
Too bad your fairy missed my craiglist posting.
This is one of those ones that I wanted to vote for when I got more votes, but forgot about. So happy belated vote-day.
I was looking through some of the tasks completed by players, both recent and past, and I was surprised to find how many task completions I can miss, especially at a high level. Many of these tasks are voteworthy, but are quickly pushed off the recently completed task boards as new players enter the game and start to learn the system by doing some of the lower level tasks. I did a quick count yesterday and there were 172 boards of completed tasks. At 15 tasks per board that's over 2500 tasks completed. And at my level, I have all of 55 votes to disperse.
I think it would be great to have a way of splitting up the completed task page by level, so that if someone completes a level 6 task, it won't get burried by the 37 level 1 and 2 tasks that get completed. So maybe the last 5 completed tasks of each level with the higher level tasks staying in the forground of SF0 conciousness.
Also with voting, it's tougher now than when I started to discern what completed task I'm going to vote for when. Take my first vote ever cast - it was for a restroom photography task and in my quick study, it seemed the person I voted for was probably within the first 10 to submit the task. Since then, there have been 80ish times the task has been completed. I probably won't take the time to go sifting through each and every one of the 99 completions to find other vote worthy ones, but it does bring about the question of how many vote worthy items through all of SF0 haven't received a vote because they are lost among the avalanch?
I'm not bring this up to say this is an injustice of the system and should be fixed, yada yada yada, because I think the system works fine and a lot of the really great completed tasks obviously float to the top. And I certainly don't have a suggestion what changes to make to get it to be 'better' other than the one above. (perhaps an equivalenz person can figure out how to do that.) I just wanted to point out that for people playing the game, that votes can't be the only carrot (even though spotlight and i agree it's the play of the game that's important) since extra votes and tougher tasks are available only as characters advance in the levels of the game.
Hey, I'm just glad you commented. I appreciate it and if you ever give me a vote, I'll honor it.
By the way, your current player pick can turn a stomache...it's just great...
let's hit a collaboration.
think she'll show up on a povich episode of 'who's the father of my baby?'
