Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
Hence why my visits to this thread are spurious, much more difficult to speak as one, than to merely state one's tendencies.

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
I'm pretty sure you could do better if you spent more than five seconds between every post.

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
Well I think the moral of the story here is not to impersonate you don't know very well. It's not a time thing, I just don't know Dart very well.Adsolution wrote:I'm pretty sure you could do better if you spent more than five seconds between every post.

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
I could, but then the thread might hang around for quite awhile. That's why this thread is flawed because it's solely reliant on people knowing the characteristics of the people posting beforehand. That's not going to be likely with people who haven't been around on here very long, or haven't contributed much. Or even if they have contributed quite a bit they might not have any obvious traits to imitate. So you're naturally going to get kinda half-baked replies like mine because it's impossible for everyone to know everyone in depth. So it shouldn't be a surprise that you get posts that aren't quite up to the game standard. But a game like this shouldn't have a high standard for imitation, because of the reasons I've just explained.
Anyhow, I'll refrain from posting in this thread unless I can actually post a decent impersonation.

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
Yes, you make a solid point. There are times when I'd like to reply but can't, and so it's up for someone else or the thread will be deserted for some time. But I'm fine with waiting rather than making a half-assed post (No offense to you, I do appreciate you trying to keep it going).

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
That's exactly the point though, it builds a sense of community by getting to know people. It's a game thread, games imply some kind of challenge to overcome. The sole rule is clearly stated in the thread title: pretend to be the poster above you. You don't be lame and change the bloody rules if you're a little stuck.rolesfamily wrote:I could, but then the thread might hang around for quite awhile.

@MLII:
It doesn't even need to be remotely decent, as long as it's by definition some kind of attempted impersonation.

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
The rules are clearly stated and so you better learn them!

I'm a head-in-the-clouds kinda guy, and could be impersonated as overly sarcastic, obnoxiously nice, or just not looking before leaping.rolesfamily wrote:Well I think the moral of the story here is not to impersonate you don't know very well.

Re: Pretend to be like the poster above
Alright, but you gotta show me the tings first. Wait for me by the garbage bin on [Some tree]street at 10:00. Holy shit, what the fuck was that! That really fucked me up for a moment. Wait, that was actually hilarious in hindsight, but I forgot my Paft Dunk discotronica album at home.
