I don't recall Desperado being a derp-hammerer; why the hesitation, XScorpion? Do you like your vote on Grimgroove?

Didn't realize that the wagon on TV had grown since the vote count.
This L-1 is way too low-profile for my liking (did you evenr ealize it was L-1?), and so is XScorpion's reaction to it. Especially Xscorpion's reaction to it. When someone is being put at L-1 epmhasis needs to be put on that event, not on how you will leave your vote on a random absent player and distance yourself from a derphammer waiting to happen.

VOTE: XScorpion

And Turkish Van is at L-1, no derphammering please.

No need to be so condescending. I read your post as a criticism on Who's vote rather than reasoning for not putting your own vote down.

I unvoted TV because things were going slowly and I decided to get a wagon going. Then I realized that someone else had voted TV so a wagon was going. TV is currently at L-2.
Who said that?
Chamber. It's all a conspiracy.
Or is it?

My vote is also in a good place since my misunderstanding has just been misconstrued as a misconstruction.

A misconstruction serves a purpose, a misunderstanding doesn't.
A misconstruction hides construction mistakes by making sure it looks to have solid foundations, a misunderstanding assumes it has solid foundations.

If I were misconstructing, what purpose would it serve, bearing in mind the fact that the construction-mistakes would be immediately evident?

I never said you were misconstructing.

You interpreted me wrongly. That's it. What else do you think is going on here?

Seeing you considered my faulty interpretation as vote-worthy, my definition of misconstruction seems more likely to be what you meant.

Oh shit.
We both did math wrong.
BROseidon is voting me, so the only votes on TV are Who and Trine.
I'm sorry :(

Turkish Van (2) - Trine, Who
Grimgroove (2) - Hermy, XScorpion
Trine (2) - Desperado, Turkish Van
XScorpion (2) - BROseidon, Grimgroove

Not Voting (1) - Sanhora

Which means Who was wrong about the wagon growing (Trine joined but BRO left).

Do people want me to ignore weekends for the purposes of prodding? I'm just trying to keep the game going quickly. Certainly if no one posted on the weekend it would be silly.

I've only recently been trying the 48/24 prod cycle rather than 72/48. 72/48 was a bit slow (especially for micros/minis) but perhaps 48/24 is too fast.

Sorry, busy weekend.

The Scorpion and Grimgroove thing looks like town on town to me at the moment.

On a semi OT (but indie game related, so yeah) note: I went and downloaded Surgeon Simulator 2013 today, hoping for a few hours of hilarious fun. I complete the operation on my first go with an A++. *siiiiiigh*

Forgot to mention, we also got our first choice. Which would probably be more exciting if either of us knew diddly-squat about indie video games...

Speaking of games, this would seem to be the one we should check out around here... :giggle:

So you think Grimgroove is town and are voting him? And have no objection to XScorpion voting him?

VOTE: Hermy
