@JackSo what happen last night, mate?
Also, 3-9pm rip.
My internet conked out.
Dunno why. Happens from time to time.

1. Don't care.
2. That's not the point.

This is how a fun tradition becomes frustrating.
Spoiler:
All your "points" are things that I had no control over.
-I don't control the internet, making me unable to start the game or alert you of the situation.
-Thread not stickied because I'm not a mod.
-Maintenance Page will plague everybody.
-I can't control other peoples' emotions.
Far as I'm concerned, the biggest detriment to the enjoyment of this game is the lack of participation- side effect of overall diminished forum activity.
Quit blaming me for things I have no power over. Being in charge of the Waifu Game hasn't made me a living deity.
And because you're being such a jerk, no- you are not on the list of candidates to run it once I retire.
Just about the only bit of constructive criticism I've gotten from you is to reinstate a post count requirement.
I've altered that to affect post count as a rewards program: More activity (or seniority, for years on board) equates to more waifus.
Everyone gets to play, but older and more active members get more out of it- what's the problem here?

3-9pm EST.understood.
Remember folks, whoever gets first after Hentainose gets to open up Round 3.
Afterwards, we're back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Okay, that's a matter of "personal" preference but it doesn't address any of the other points. I don't think the fault completely lies with you since you can't sticky or lock threads but you definitely weren't a responsible (or timely) host.
I can't control the internet, mate.
You want to all give me your numbers so I can personally call you when the game starts?

And come on "What has it got in its pocketses?" is totally a famous Gollum line.
That is.

Ok I've got one: What have I got in my pockets?
This isn't.
It's an extension thereof, come on Jack that was a totally getable reference.
I say nay. Much too mundane of a phrase, akin to asking about the weather.
And I'd have to quote Gollum for a correct answer. His mad drivel is not easily memorised.
It's not fair.
I already gave you the +1 stop beating me up about it ;-;
No.
You must give me the fiver as well.
In person.

-Since Bag started the round, first in afterwards is Hentainose Hentanize. Meaning next week, Hentanize starts Round 2.Do I get to choose the time as well? I'm not sure I fancy another 2 3am start.
It could actually be interesting to have hosts from different time zones start the game whenever that day.
Precisely what it means.
Choose a time, and it'll be announced.

It was a Hobbit reference. That's the "riddle" Bilbo beats Gollum with when they exchange riddles.
Well now, I'm going to have to cry foul on that one.
That innocuous phrase hardly comes across as a reference.
"None shall pass" is a reference. "Forth, Eorlingas" is a reference.
"I have no memory of this place" is a vague reference.
"You haven't aged a day" is not a reference. Far too commonplace to merit.
It might have helped if you said it was reference.
The riddle I gave only requires a look through the previous waifu games, a secondary education, and some puzzling together.
A reference requires mass media consumption.

Wait so I get to give you a riddle to see if you get an extra slot? Suddenly Jack is handing power to me and I don't like it.YOU WILL TAKE THE POWER AND YOU WILL LIKE IT- WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
Ok I've got one: What have I got in my pockets?
Is this something with clues about so I can make a deduction, or am I gonna have to fire at will with random guesses?
Proceeding with latter.
-Nothing.
-Your hands.
-Your dick.
-Lint.
-A fiver.
-3 pounds and 14 pence.
-A gameboy colour.
-A PSP.
-A chocolate orange.
-An old receipt.
-Old tickets for the Grand National.
-A pen.
-Keys.
-Discarded wrapper of a red starburst.
-Discarded wrapper of a yellow starburst.
-There is no spoon.
All at the same time.
Oh wow, you didn't get the reference?
The vast majority of references go beyond me. Star Wars, LOTR, and Transformers may be about the only ones that I'll consistently get. Been awhile since I've watched either of them, too.

I figured and it's actually may turn into an interesting idea, I'll probably watch the game from the sidelines and make random claims here and there, but actually competing in the game I probably won't do since as I said having users try to be the start of the game could get messy. There's also the fact that a user may only want 2-3 claims. To me there are a lot of issues that could arise, but hopefully they won't happen. Besides that my health has been on the rocks lately when I'm off from work so I need to take care of that... trying to play a waifu game with me puking my guts out on/off all day yesterday was idiotic on my part (TTwTT)
Well, that ain't groovy.
You take care of yourself and get better soon, you hear?
melvinyongD wrote...
Thanks Jack, i thought my claim is invalid & i kept on visit the thread every 2 hours......
Anyway, could you stick the game thread to the top thread?
Only mods can stick it. So it'll be up when it's up.
In the meantime, it's either search, or clicking on a link.
My sig links to the game, for those with sigs turned on.

Eh, I'll probably sit out this waifu game honestly. I mean I get where you went with this and all Jack, but would have been better to come up with clearer rules initally since that was kind of confusing. Even bagman didn't know he was the first to start the game and if there is an issue where a player doesn't know they are to start the game/timezone starts, etc then it could get messy. Best wishes to those that play this game though, might do the reclaim rounds or something if I remember.Bags starting the game was a mistake, but since a bunch of other people posted, I figured letting it pass was a better option.

Here's the deal.

rotating host shits about to get crazy
Made a thread in IB with this. First person in gets to start the next round.
Thought it'd make things interesting.
