Considering he's a professional baseball player who grew up with sabermetrics instead of a digital construct who learned about them from Bobson a couple hours ago, I'd give him the edge on that confrontation, yeah.

But Kami knows saberMAGICS, not saberMETRICS.

You gotta understand crumpets to understand cricket, is what I'm saying.

McD, gonna front load this so I come off as less of an rear end in a top hat, because I LOVE this LP, and especially love the baseball history. And I think I forgot to thank you for your kind pinball recommendations from an unrelated thread, so thanks! Not sure my ex gave any fucks, but I appreciate your knowledge.

That said, as a Mets fan, gently caress YOU FOR REMINDING ME THAT YOENIS CESPEDES EXISTS AGH

I believe it. I mean, I was watching live the time he tried to fist fight a South Korean giant.

Just to clarify, gyroball wasn't involved here. Basically, I knew I wanted to revert my decision to kill Dugan due to finding out I screwed myself out of stuff by doing so, and given how meta the game sometimes gets, I just couldn't resist to whip out the RPG Maker and make something to dress it up a bit.

Honestly, that was loving brilliant. :golfclap:

I swear I read some SAS joke about Joe Buck announcing during the heat death of the sun and then this game freaking brings it to life.

Oh god, I missed that the first read-through.

Hey, I decided to take a stab at giving my own take on that design, because it has some things that really annoy me that come from the fact that Dirt Road Junglist didn't have any access to the original resources like I do. For instance, if you use a dark theme like I do, you'll notice throughout the LP that there are some stray white pixels around Bobson that stick out like a sore thumb if you're anal about unclean graphics like I am. I never fixed them because I'm fat and lazy, but if we're talking about a gangtag that I'd be more regularly seeing, then it would probably bug me more.



Brilliant, thanks for that! I was working from one of your screenshots with background elements under the "gently caress That" that made it hard to move the text to the center. I did clean up some of the hard pixels around Bobson's portrait, but it was a quick and dirty by-hand job that only looks good on a pale theme. I would have had to go back and clean it up anyway. (Sup fellow annoyed-by-unclean-graphics goon?)

Btw, in the aftermath of this game someone is going to have to ride herd on Zizek because you know at a certain point he's going to start thinking about using applied ontology again.

Super duper torn between Base Wars, which is a game I super wanted to play after reading about it in Nintendo Power but never did, and Super Baseball 2020, which came out on my favorite system, the Neo Geo, but which I also haven't played.
