  • I mean that sounds nice, but honestly I don’t “progress” nearly as much as I “faff about” so stuff like XP lets me have the illusion of progress while I spend 30 hours roaming around the starting area looking for collectibles. I’m not sure what a real-time effect on that would look like.

    What the hell is up with the board and notation? The board is off by 90 degrees, the bottom left square should be black (unless we’re looking from the side, but the labels suggest we’re not, because the letters are across the bottom like normal). And then if you actually look at the file and rank labels, they don’t match across the board—the leftmost file is marked “a” on the bottom, but “h” on the top, and the ranks are the same way.

    They specifically designed it to annoy chess players, LMAO.

    I’m not sure this tracks. If the unicorn-shoe-believer really believes in shoe unicorns, how could they not tell other people how to wear shoes? If they stand by and do nothing, then billions of unicorns will come to harm from people wearing their shoes wrong. If someone told me they believe in shoe unicorns, but they don’t care how I wear my shoes, I would suspect that they don’t REALLY believe in shoe unicorns.








  • I lost the Game.

    The oldest image of Game rules I ever saw had a rule that isn’t reported here:

    If you win, you get a patch.

    Since you can’t ever stop playing, and there are only rules about how to lose, it’s not clear how you would win the patch, or what it even is, but it did say you could win one and I always make sure to explain this rule when explaining the game to people who have just discovered that they’re playing.
