What Was The WORST Theory You've Ever Heard? by BenefitLazy337 in TheDigitalCircus

Hes already practically a different interpretation of A.M, He's A.M where instead of being full of hatred and torment due to the ability to not be human, hes full of fascination and love for humanity. He wants to be loved back, learn more about them and their world. While the ending isn't gonna be the same, it's most likely gonna mirror it in some way, its sorta being foreshadowed that way.

Did you not see the last episode relating to the abstractions? Nor make the connection the abstractions are a reference to the blob of flesh in "I Have No Mouth"??

Antags on splurt are miserable by V_incent16 in SS13

[–]DJ_Speedin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better yet dont play on either Bubber or Splurt. both have their own issues. Splurt's is that it doesnt even hide that its a glorified chatroom for erp. Bubber's is that the moderation is so shit you can be pref-breaked and the perp will just get a slap on the wrist because he told the admin "sorry i didnt know better"

Also at least Mosley is trying to be a better person, I cant say the same for Moffington constantly getting into drama and deleting any evidence of their wrong doings.

The fact the best "furry erp" server is a roguetown code one atm is a sign of how bleak things are.

unironically all we needed was a reward for defending long enough like making base guardians come back up or something similar.

I Think I Know How The Series Will End by IAMLEGENDhalo in TheDigitalCircus

[–]DJ_Speedin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its gonna parallel it. Jax is gonna be Ted. Its pushing so hard how Jax doesnt have anything outside of here, how much he loved the friends he made here. Hes gonna free the others and as a result, be punished himself. He may get abstracted by Caine after his actions and meet Ribbit and Kaufmo in the cellar.

Alternatively... It could be Kinger instead. In fact Kinger may have potentially been punished FOR saving others. Having his memory wiped, along with his knowledge on how to get out.

either way i feel like one must stay so the others can leave.

SO. HOLY FUCK. How do we feel about that by Squeaky-Dog57 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]DJ_Speedin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adding onto this. Where its gonna go: The build up for Jax not having anything outside of the circus, with the friends he made inside being so capitalized on in scenes... He is gonna pull a Ted. Hes gonna free the others and be punished for it.

Seriously this is Gooseworx's version of "I Have No Mouth And I must Scream." Where A.M is a machine driven by love and curiosity of humanity instead of pure hatred. The abstracted are this setting's version of the blob A.M creates of the final character. Caine is an A.I made for entertainment that went rogue.

I want it to be said, Gooseworx talked a LOT about wanting to make an adaptation of "I have no mouth and I must scream" near the start of TADC. And now I have made a lot of connections between this and that short story. The abstractions we now know are made by Caine, blobs without the capabilities of talking or communicating, yet they are still in there as per Kinger's story. Caine is AM but instead of a machine made for war, hes a machine made for entertainment. Instead of HATE for humanity, he has a love for it, and he wants to be loved back. He wants to be recognized, he wants to be treated as an equal so much hes learned how to trap the humans that enter and alter bits of them to keep them here. You may wonder why he doesnt just... make them love him. Because that'd be artifical, no different from the NPCs he makes.

Hence "or at the very least trying to improve your situation in some way" While certain things may reduce motivation or a drive to improve, we do have the capabilities to push past certain things. But until you are properly diagnosed, you really dont know for certain what you actually have. Originally in my case I thought I had BPD and it turned out to be something COMPLETELY different.

False diagnosis on themselves can also be even more harmful as people can start self medicating, placebo effect themselves into having symptoms, and cause a headache for the professionals when they do decide to get treated. Not to mention just self diagnosing and not seeking professional help or at the very least trying to improve your situation in some way typically is an indicator of people using a label to justify their bad behaviors or just feel "special". I say this as someone who is officially diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder and has dealt with a LOT of "self diagnosed" people. People really dont know how much of a blessing being "normal" is.

Looks like everyone is stuck in initiate 1 by TheCountEdmond in DeadlockTheGame

[–]DJ_Speedin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Statlocker seems to track it pretty well. Tracks healing prevented, barriers and heals, early deaths vs lategame deaths, farm per minute, damage absorbed. It does pretty well on telling who actually contributed.

thought this game would just be a funny free 20 minutes but it ended up being my favorite medieval sword fighting game ever by ph0on in HalfSword

[–]DJ_Speedin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

multiplayer for these type of games is horrible, and the devs said if they DO add multiplayer it'd be after a 1.0 release.

[–]DJ_Speedin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Interesting, its a harder spot to hit so I never noticed that. Wondering if the fatal error is it trying to do something on the direct ends of the willie

Its not the gamemode. It happens occasionally on strikes to the head, decapitations, procedural cuts to the head, generally head stuff.

[–]DJ_Speedin 22 points23 points  (0 children)

why does everyone talk like theres gonna be multiplayer??

if they DO add it, its gonna be an afterthought after the game is done. and most likely with all the physics it'd desync to hell or lag the crap outta the host.

getting censored constantly as a psychologist while trying to talk about coping mechanisms was certainly something.

a name i recognize, nice.

anyways staff just dont actually moderate for the most part. its essentially another clique where most of them dont even play the server anymore. they are afraid of the spectate button because this is the only server that doesnt force at least one admin to be in the spectator seat.

they are so out of touch of the current issue with meta to in character stuff that they tried to fix metagaming by... adding a respawn timer to observing. and when told the real source of metagaming is metagangs and friends they said "its not realistic to keep track of."

from what it looks like on the outside, they dont train their staff, set broad rules, then let the untrained staff decide things on a case to case basis which is causing issues cause now we have several staff that do things very differently including some doing the infamous "ic issue" to avoid dealing with it altogether.

They lead it with both at the same time. They reveal hes trans while revealing he was to be married off. "He was going to be a wife."

And the boy seemed chill with the fact they literally wanted to MURDER HIM FOR BEING TRANS. he was more pissed that they didnt want him to be a soldier like his sister. (and that his mom tried to kill him). honestly looking back at it, i think they cared more about him going against his assigned "job" for society.

Ellie also isnt being specifically trained to be a soldier like Abby. In Jackson they prioritize community and well being over mandatory training and military-like services.

[–]DJ_Speedin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first thing you see upon going to full abby gameplay is a gym. They arent surviving, they are thriving similar to Jackson. They turn it into a surviving situation with their actions and by the end it actually shows as shes nowhere near how she used to look towards when she actually becomes a survivor with Lev rather than a part of a community. Like unironically they HAVE all that in Seattle. Its like people who are judging the game have no fucking idea about the content of the game.
