Puffin and Kamau Topic # The... The... Wait, which number is this?

 

Puffin: I told you, it's not # the anything- it's the weekly updates!

Kamau: Oh. Well, that explains the lame title you chose!

Puffin: What, the date? They're all numbered like that.

Kamau: Like I said, lame.

Puffin: Hey, we got a job to do here, focus! Who else is going to bring these people this dire, important news, but us?

Kamau: What dire, important news is that again?

Puffin: You know, like MOTW-

Kamau: Oh! That’s Lega-

Puffin: Kamau, you can’t just say it like that. You’ve gotta do it right.

Kamau: Well fine! *ahem*

Legacy is popular. SO popular that he got not just two interviews, but THREE. SO popular that the ladies faint at his feet as he walks by. SO popular that even the majestic bald eagle idolizes him. SO popular that we couldn’t help but make him MOTW!
* Sources needed.

 

 

Puffin: Well, that's certainly popular, but will he be as popular as our...

 

 

Game of the Week

 

 

Grave Spirit
When you open this game, the first thing it tells you to do is read the html manual included with the download.
I did not do this.
What lies within the mysterious manual? Directions? Cheat codes? Important history so that we may fully grasp the story of this game? The world will never know (never mind, just checked, it's directions). Though in all seriousness, if you intend to play the game, reading the manual is probably a good idea, as it does go over some of the controls which are otherwise not explained. Some stuff is, but as far as RPGmaker games go, this one has some pretty complex game mechanics, and I can see why they wouldn't want to bog down the pacing with too much explaining. Admittedly, I only played through the first few minutes or so, but I intend to play it the rest of the way through. The story has a basic, but interesting foundation and the entire game has a really cool, somewhat morose, but mysterious atmosphere to which is definitely helped by the graphics.

 

 

 

Last Week's Poll Results

Kamau: Wow, Mario got a ton of votes!

Puffin: Yeah...About that... Turns out you can vote multiple times. I voted once, then later, I voted again after mistakenly thinking I hadn't yet. It was only when I saw both votes had counted that I realized you could vote multiple times (hopefully, I didn't do this three times without realizing).

Kamau: You... You mean you cheated?

Puffin: Well, not intentionally-
Kamau: I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU. You... You... overrated egotistical maniac!

Puffin: I am not!

Kamau: Not what?

Puffin: A maniac!

Kamau: So you admit to being overrated and egotistical?

Puffin: I-what?

Kamau: Admission accepted. Now let’s go vote on something else that’s overrated!

Now I feel bad that I haven't actually started Ready Player One. xp

 

EDIT: I have now read the prologue. It counts.

Shhh, we'll pretend.

[lazlo falconi]

Wait a minute, tag team updates? Is that even legal?

[legacyme3]

Woo. Swooning women and the idol of bald eagles everywhere.

 

That's certainly fun.

[Vicious Parker]

I do idolize Leggy, and I love that I am now an eagle. That's a great new nickname!

[Xteven Xavier]

That was pretty good, but i too call shenanigans. 

 

though I think that I should be member of the week again soon, it's been quite a while ;p

 

seriously though good update.

[panda]

Yeah, we should do something about that poll voting fraud.


... is something I'd say if it mattered.

JK. Of course our opinions matter. As a reminder to US folk, election day is next week.

[Lackadaisy]

Election day.

Hah, only squares who are involved in their government and delusioned by the big man vote.

Also I don't have to for another 4 years.

I'm not voting. I don't see the point. In my state, we're being ravaged by political ads that are all saying "the other candidate is a dipshit, don't vote for them"

 

Here's an idea. How about when you make an ad, you tell us what YOU stand for? I have no idea what anyone stands for, and I don't care to know anymore.

 

I'm either voting for a shitty person who is terrible or a terrible person who is shitty.

 

As South Park once put it, we get to have the right to vote for either a douche or a turd.

You can also vote 'no' and make just as good a statement.

 

But I definitely agree with the concept of people saying what they stand for in their campaigning. I hate when politicians only say bad things about the opposing runner, while saying nothing about themselves.

My opponent Senator Kirk claims he loves the taste of a Big Mac, but here he is eating a salad grown out of state i'm Congressman Stewart, and I support Crest Toothpaste!

This is a really ridiculous and juvenile way of thinking, but maybe it doesn't seem so important if you live in a red state. Unfortunately, my state's entire representation is republican, and they've done nothing but block resolutions, worry about what the president is doing, and conduct smear campaigns against everyone, while systematically trying to dismantle every social safety net we have in this state. It's crazy and I need to vote to get rid of all of them.

This is your wisest choice. While I'm vice president, all internet traffic will redirect to Monkeypro.
