[Crooked Bee]

Have patience, we're in the middle of some calibrations.

 

[EG]

I won.

Chris Avellone will do it for us.

No, he won't. His answer was pretty clear on this one.

Damn our lovable Lord.

 

[CappenVarra]

Random fact of the day: "talanteuein" means "to weigh out money" (src: Greek Myths by Robert Graves). Could this be made into a tribute to Taluntain and the jewgold? Hmmm...

 

[hiver]

I think Chris and maybe a few other devs, if they are watching, had a few smug laughs of vengeance about all of this.

 

[Gregz]

I truly hope this will be a grand narrative worthy of the ages.

 

[SerratedBiz]

I just hope this doesn't end up making us look like prepubescent tards.

Might be too late for that. I don't get why some people suggested an entire area. Doesn't this need to be something very simple? Do we need to go back to the drawing board with tighter rules on what this is supposed to be?

It would be interesting to see what the exchange between our Codexian Overlords and our man-god MCA was like. I mean, was fellatio involved?

 

[Gregz]

I think the most important part we get right is the statue and the plaque.

So much butthurt between you two. What's the problem? Not enough romance in the game?

Riiiight.

Because the site itself doesn't do a good enough job at that already, eh?

"OH NOES! THAT SITE FULL OF DUDES WHO ACT LIKE PREPUBESCENT TARDS POSTING CONSTANT SHITPOSTS ABOUT VIDEOGAMES...I REPEAT....VIDEOGAMES HAS A THING IN A VIDEOGAME WHICH MAKES THEM LOOK PRETTY MUCH EXACTLY AS THEY ARE!!!"

 

[EG]

It's not the videogames, its GD.

Fuckin' GD, man. It's everywhere!

 

[SerratedBiz]

Riiiight.

It's the recent surge in excessive arrogance which has me put off, certainly not the fact that Codex is about games (I mean, wtf kind of reasoning did you pull there, man). Personally, I find that the whole "last bastion of good games" shtick has gotten stale and that maybe some people should take a closer look at the Skyrim and Diablo 3 threads in search of their elite brethren.

But hey, don't let this get in the way of your raging, it's not like you completely missed the point.

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

Errr, no, son. You missed the point. By a goddamn mile. Especially since I was only taking the piss (errr, hey I'm a member here too, did you get the memo?) you fucking twat.

 

[SerratedBiz]

To be perfectly honest, I'm now rereading that second line and the stream of consciousness after it and I'm not even sure I get the point now.

Regardless, if I misinterpreted your intention then I owe you a beer or something. Cheers.

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

I was just goofing that all of this (and I mean all of it...the site, us, videogames in general, etc) is fairly juvenile. But expecting us to take seriously the varying levels of monocled-brow-levels is even more juvenile (i.e. those of you upset about this whole thing because it will make us look exactly how we look anyway tickles my funny bone). That and...well...if you really were truly monocled (and by 'truly monocled' I mean distinguished, aloof and unflappable) your "Can't Be Bothered-ometer" wouldn't even budge.

 

[EG]

Perhaps we need to contact the manufacturer of our "Can't Be Bothered-ometer" and report the malfunction.

 

[SCO]

the thing that gets me, is even if the codex succeeds in suggesting something understated, there will be a few others lulz locations like the something awful one.

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

I just don't think the devs are stupid enough to make any of these things so glaring as to destroy their own fucking game.

 

[sgc_meltdown]

lulz locations like the something awful one.

tell me about this something awful location that makes one laugh out loud in a corrupted manner

 

[SCO]

sgc_meltdown, probably was thinking of RPGWatch, not sure which others raised more than 10.000

 

[hiver]

... only a complete juvenile retard can think of all videogames as juvenile... not surprising seeing who posted such a brain malfunction, while trying to paint himself as some sort of experienced dude that can call others "son".

How fucking pathetic...

Games progressed as a medium. The fact that they are used for fun and entertainment does not make all of them juvenile - at all.

lol



Also: keep un-ignoring me, son. The more you do, the stronger I become.
