I've got a little something to say about sportsmanship and gamesmanship.
First, this is a game. Wait let me check the Dictionary... yep... verify with wiki... yep, this is definitely a
game
.
With that said, some of you guys take this game a little to seriously. so much so it's really starting to interfere with my fun and wish to continue. If some of you don't get over it and quick, you are going to be one less player.
Second. This is GI Joe's second win in awhile. Those guys had the temerity to stick it through the losses. To rally each other after each game. Not get all worked up and type up long emails that are unfit for my kids to read over my shoulder. Because i do share this with them by the way. Some of these posts are hilarious and the kids are just as a big a fan of you guys as i am.
This isn't the end of the world, it isn't even the end of the war. We still have one heck of a winning record and even if we didn't... it's Cobra's destiny to lose. We proudly stand beside some of the greatest failures of all time. Wild E. Coyote, the Joker, Lex Luthor. What would happen to some of our beloved story lines/cartoons/ or comic books if these extremely deadly individuals actually got their hands on their respective heroes.
I'll tell you what, my trips to the comic store would become cheaper.
Look guys, lets not gegrudge anybody a hard win they earned. They wanted it they got it. Some of us got to the game on time... others didn't. And what in the blue blazes is this only three people can post per hour in the first few hours of the day. don't you think that might have had something to do with our difficulties this morning. I report to work at 6am. If three people go before me when i check at 0530, then you guys aren't going to hear from me again until i put my kids to bed on some nights. that's after TAPs. and that's why my posts were so late this time around. That was easily the most annoying rule I've ever seen.
Also, it seems the more we push more people into the game the more work the GM team has to do. The more work they have to do the less they write per day, the more testy they get, the less they want to see our inputs added in. I recommend scaling down some. Maybe not replacing the next ten people that leave the team. Quantity does not win the day over quality. Ask the British...
We are 'terrorists' dag nabbit, lets start acting like it.
Anyway these are just some observations i thought i would share with you guys. i liked the game much better last year when you posted what you wanted when you wanted and no one bugged ya. I also liked when you could chit-chat with your opponents in the game thread. i understand it makes the job harder for Pyro, and i don't fault him for what he's doing. but we definitely need a playground where we can all kick it during the day instead of this nonsense.
This is supposed to be a hobby and stress reliever. Not someplace where i have to put my shirt (E6) back on and play nursemaed to grown men. and i feel that as a simple 'cobra blueshirt' i can't imagine how some of the leadership for the teams and the gm team must feel.
What i'm saying is, don't let your love for yourself, or what you perceive your identity to be... to ruin something we all love doing together.
This is the only time i will post something like this.
thanks for taking the time to read this message, i hope those intended take it to heart and do a little soul searching, I think it would be a shame if there was a mass exodus of 100 percenters that walked out together because they just got tired of hearing it all.
If you start missing alot all of a sudden you will get fired? C'mon man, is it really that serious?
