I heard Rubin talking about this last night and he seemed genuinely touched by the unbirthday party. Nice work!
I like this. I'm sad I missed it.
I'm mostly voting for Gadget's red name in that sea of black. Go Equivalenz!
When I first looked, I wondered why Rubin's name wasn't on the list, but that makes sense since the party was for him... After all, who needs points when you've got a talking soap dispenser!
I tried to google up a location for this little bugger, but the only references I could find were some canadian who took a picture but can't remember where he saw it. *sigh* I guess I'm just going to have to find it myself.
There are so many people reporting "fabulous" results that I expect that people aren't entering the minute of their birth. I suppose its not something that many people know, but if you want to see different results, click the check box on the form and it will assign you a random minute (and hence a random adjective).
thanks for all the feedback!
I can't imagine you needed me to tell you that ;)
...that's not the nicest thing I've ever seen.
Is this supposed to be Equivalenz only?
"there is the measure of your impact on the game and the game's impact on you, but also of yougame on the world at large--what will it be? Here, all I see is this insidious loopback where I make a task and you critique it in your backyard at 2:30am and nothing comes of it--the whole interaction is carefully sequestered from the city, other people--nothing's risked. It's too easy and sort of pointless."
This from the guy who added with the "Snakes on a plane" task?!?
These are wonderful words, but I think thats all they are.... just words you came up with because you're trying to make a point. Like I said before, flags (or in this case, words) are cheap and work is hard. Lead by example, make an impact, then perhaps I'll give your words more credence.
But in the mean time, I'm going to play the game for me. Thats the fun of this game, you get to choose your own level of commitment and involvement.
I also wanted to say that I have been listening to what you have been saying and even enjoying the conversation.... Seeing how you feel, I see that I circumvented your intentions in the manner of my task completion, and that my protest was ineffective and perhaps cynical. But if thats the limit of my misgivings.
As a player of this game, it's not my job to complete tasks in the way the creator would like them to be completed. If you want to choose how tasks get done, either be specific or do them yourself and get lots of points and have fun... thats what the game is for, isn't it? To have fun? For me, fun is just a paper flag and a pack of matches away.
I am going to do the tasks my way and if the big red "X" of rejection comes down on me for the fact that I was a little tongue-in-cheek with my completion, then so be it.... but I've got more faith in the "X" than that.
And yes, this is both a game and a community... Perhaps not a very active or tight community, but hey, we're still in beta ;)
Nice word.
