10,000th Post

[Mark_K]

I still get the warm fuzzies thinking about the LOTR game were you were lynched day 1 as a villager. You then return as a substitute and your first night back, you get lynched again as a villager.

Congratulations on the 10,000 and thank you for making POG a special place. [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Oh crap. It was wasn't it. I don't remember games at all once I have played them. Unless the name of the game is Pirates of Pogglesworth.

Ok Zurv, sorry to turn you into Stephen, my memory obviously sucks. I would love to replay that game with Durron or Luckay in Xorbie's stead to see if we could have pulled it off.

I didn't want to brag about bringing secret sub-plots to POG, just like I didn't brag about bringing prostitutes [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Well, you can't post pics of your wife and daughter (and my gf) and brag about bringing postitutes in the same thread.

I am probably alone in this, but the original days in POG are over-romanticized. I constantly people saying things like, "this is why I don't play games anymore". People don't play games anymore because they get annoyed or burnt out. The people are as good as ever.

If people are turned off by bickering and arguing they would have run screaming from Kyro in his acerbic heyday. We don't have a Karpinski and AlphaWice to deal with, and most everyone who signs up plays to the end. So times are good.

I agree with all of this. The main difference is that there is more fps now then there was before. Some like that, some don't. Villagers faking seer used to be quite rare and now it's common. Sometimes it's good for the village but IMO it usually isn't.

Things like the recent blowup over talking at night have been around since the early days.
