What's the most memorable moment in an LSG?

For large social games such as Survivor where the primary mechanic is social interaction.

Survivor players are really into schadenfreude.

Theodora's public meltdown over voting/not voting Gilgamesh/Boudicca was pretty pro. Not as memorable to me as Theodora's Private Forum To Invite Victims To.

TBH nothing individually in Civ was top-tier memorable, but it had a series of very good moments

I'm proud of a lot of challenges from that game (and not proud of a few) but Borobudur was special.

Yes this might be true and I've over inflated the Theo thing. It was by far the best moments of the game. That + the Gilgamesh vote with similar breakdown.

Civ also had literally the first time a see-how-people-voted reward item had a definite effect on the game.

Survivor Greenland where Panzerjager photoshopped a PM to make it look like farside was who leaked the tribe QT and she was going to submit her actual rl work schedule to prove she couldn't have sent the PM to begin with, and some players in the game went real in depth to try to say that no way was it photoshopped, and half the game quit before it was mod-abandoned early into the next challenge.

Yes, yes it was. There was also less rules about whether you could talk cross-tribally or not. But yeah, you're looking at one of the reasons the rule about not being able to photoshop people's PMs happened.

I've played one game and even I think that looks like caveman Survivor

Do I REALLY suck? That's up to you to decide.

Retiring from LSG's and Mish Mash, for the most part. If you want to contact me, I suggest going outside and enjoying what the world has to offer, instead.

Definitely DID suck, in the end...Probably.

Everyone always remembers the Kawazu song, but "Please do not die Hercule" and the associated PMs were even better.

Not to bring up terrible memories, but one of the few memories I have of games I've modded is Greece FTC, specifically "Monika loses because sometimes she used blue text and ani doesn't like how hard it is to read."

Oh that was a much nicer text shade than you used. The blue was really really bright.
