I noticed that through all the media, the hype, the advertising, and the online discussions, that no one is mentioning “Dumb and Dumberer”, like it’s some forgotten plague.
Anyone have any comments on that?
Yeah… where the heck did Ebola go? Must hibernate for Christmas…
Mind you for me as a kid it was a member of the special weapons task force. No sense of humour. As a 13 year old kid I was chased into a 24 hour grocery store by some drunken teenagers. My BB gun was no match for four drunks and a pickup truck. Long story short when the manager called the police to declare there were men with guns in the store it really excited the small sleepy yokel police department who were sadly disappointed with two scared 13 year old kids were the gunmen. It was a CO2 bb pistol but still….no assault rifle.
They “construed” attacks on terrible tournament design, as personal since they designed it.
That’s not my problem. Read my words again carefully. And the first stone was cast when it was suggested, AA players weren’t competent enough to caluclate NO’s at the end of their turn, or that they can’t be trusted to use tech or play the 41 setup.
As the natural champion of “the people” around here… I jumped to your defence. You’re welcome GHR2. :)
How did you interperet any of that as an attack on the people? Are you seriously assuming that all brand new players know all the NO’s for every country and knows how every single tech works and how to roll with them? Because a significant amount of people who go to gaming conventions are people who walk around and try out new games. So it is logical that for some tournament hosters might want to make things as simple as possible so that new players are less than intimidated and that the game runs faster.
HHhmmm, was there the same hue and cry over Rush and Hannity constantly reporting about that former pro-football player who was KIA a couple of years ago?
You know, the one who was lauded as a hero, gave up his career and died in Afghanistan, etc., etc….
The one that we found out (very quietly) a few months later was killed by our own troops?
