Yeah, Rutibex’s taste in board games matched his taste in Path of Exiles builds, apparently.

I haven’t played Talisman since the 2000s, so maybe it got good in the meantime, but if you’re not familiar with it, just think of it as a fantasy adventure simulator that makes Monopoly seem like a short, strategic, enjoyable interactive experience in comparison

Yeah, long story short is that an anarchist group took over part of Seattle (CHAZ) and some kids got shot by CHAZ antifa, and the ACAB/thin blue line argument happened as usual but with participants trying out the other side to make it novel

Yeah, I think we’ve had a good explanation on this one and can move on to more saga-y sagas. Thanks to everyone who contributed.

I regard Bioshock Infinite as the Citizen Kane of video games, but I’ve never seen Citizen Kane, so I’m just assuming that the movie also turns into a rushed incoherent mess with bullet sponge enemies halfway through

also, I think he was the speedrunner who destroyed his own career by cheating at Paper Mario

I would like to hear more about this if you have more details, because it also sounds hilarious.

Going back to history chat, I remember an exchange from years ago that went something like this:

Poster A: "Canada sucks because they've treated First Nations people like garbage pretty much from the beginning."
Poster B: "Hey, that's my country you're talking about, who the gently caress do you think you are?"
Poster A: "I'm Cree."
Poster B: "Oh, uh, let's all be friendly, alright?"

Don't know that I've seen such a quick backpedal on these forums, before or since

"Yelling at a webcomic artist about your ship not being canon so hard that he shows up in the SA thread to dump your PMs" and "tanking your Twitch speedrunning career by obviously cheating at Paper Mario" together are an impressive loser resume even by goon standards, although I feel like it needs a fetish roleplaying account to really hit the trifecta

I feel like “cheating at a game to speed run it in a way that means you’re still two hours away from the record” is just pathetic enough on its own to stand out

most of cccc is threads that are super annoying and unwanted but they have a ton of posters and arent necessarily breaking rules so they get shuffled off there and maybe given thread iks and left to do whatever

When Koos Group became the main admin for D&D, he moved the main US Current Events discussion thread over there for a few months. Somehow that turned one of the shittiest threads in D&D into... well, I don't know, I'm not gonna read it, but according to the mods it's now it's far far less lovely and they have no idea why.

I don't think we should come up with weird cutesy nicknames for people who gently caress up, because that comes across as a reward and encourages gigantic weirdos to deliberately gently caress up so that they get a cool nickname, and gently caress if I want someone like nom epique to pursue becoming a SA Legends Superstar

In this case, I'm okay with an exception because

Re: TobleroneTriangular, didn't he retire from the gimmick once he noticed himself legitimately starting to have libertarian beliefs and reactions to things and hit the eject button, or was that some other legend?

Yeah, that was him. He had D&D/LF mostly convinced for nearly a year before he stepped back because he spent so much time figuring out how to respond to things 'in character' that it was starting to be his first reaction to everything.
