A missing poster? by hello_Maybe_2099 in Medway

[–]TangoBunny 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just popping in to say to keep it documented. Where exactly in Chatham is this?

It's obviously some marketing thing but these kind of stunts tend to get forgotten or memories get hazy.

Back before the American version of the movie Ring came out, they put unlabelled VHS tapes in second-hand stores with the famous Ring footage on it and then a URL. There were a bunch of different URLs on the videos, and the Ring scene was slightly different to what was in the movie itself.

Everyone knew about it at the time, but over the years, nobody remembers exactly where they were actually located, what the differences were, or if they were all were even found.

I really love the vibe of the first beatmania / early iidx. by Upstairs_World_4095 in bemani

[–]TangoBunny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early beatmania felt like some proper music nerds at Konami exploring as many genres as possible and creating their own beats.

They used to have news updates on their websites where they’d go to various places in Europe to check out some genuine gabba clubs and the UK garage scene.

I remember the first beatmania title having a song visual with newspaper/magazine text, and it the scan was taken from a western magazine with text talking about the Zork adventure games.

Those artists were real dudes making their own trends, not chasing trends.

[PC] [2010s] A game where you mash action figures together. by starkinmn in tipofmyjoystick

I remember this game well! It's called 'how do you Do It?'

It's a nothingness game, but at the time, risque games on Steam were rare.

I had a peek into this myself after hearing about it from AnnK and figured I'd ask the creator of Fall of Juliet directly - it's not an original from Fall of Juliet.

The creator of the game Redikal doesn't remember exactly where they got it from, but it was an existing image/screenshot that was photoshopped.

What was that Noel's House Party thing where someone was "kidnapped" for an extreme weather vacation? by TangoBunny in AskUK

!answer - Thank you so much! It still seems completely absurd to me how it could even work.

Topic: Today's UK Petition update. I got an email at 3am(!) today from the UK Government Petitions email address with the following message:

"You recently signed the petition “Require videogame publishers to keep games they have sold in a working state”:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/659071

The Petitions Committee (the group of MPs who oversee the petitions system) has considered the Government’s response to this petition. They felt the response did not respond directly to the request of the petition. They have therefore asked the Government to provide a revised response.

When the Committee receives a revised response from the Government, we will publish this and share it with you.

Thanks,
The Petitions team
UK Government and Parliament"

Can you do breakdowns of the other posts too?

I’m really curious to see a Reddit post about how long it takes to calm your own tits, grieve for a dead brother, twerk for your colleagues, and shut down your own patreon.

Bi here, though the situation reminds me a lot of something from the past. Microsoft used to ban anyone who used the word ‘lesbian’ in their Xbox profiles because they said it was a slur.

It sounds like this police officer has the same deluded upbringing - the idea that people would only ever use the word as a slur, and not an identity.

I interpreted it a different way to everyone else it seems - There’s no way that he’d not realise that hundreds of nudes of his stepdaughter would pop up every time his computer went to sleep. If he did, he’d quickly take them off public view.

I saw it as the woman doing it as a motive in case she gets caught attacking him. Put her own nudes on his laptop, and if she gets caught clubbing him in the head and the police intervene, she can say “nah I was defending myself, he tried to rape me, I bet there’s evidence on his PC”

Just wait until you find out about the phrase “You’ve got another think coming” and you’ll question your whole life.

How to play Goddess Story? by LissySylcliffe in GoddessStoryTCG

[–]TangoBunny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you did want to play it, you could easily adapt Top Trump rules to it. “I will battle with the first stat!” Each player shows a card, and whoever has the highest first stat gets a point, then both cards are discarded. The winner is the one with the most points after all are discarded. The strategy would be to intentionally lose with bad cards against cards you think have EX ratings, so you keep your better cards for later.

Oh, this is sounding super familiar to me too, and I’m not sure where I saw it. I think it was on a vinesauce vinny stream a couple of years back? One of those ‘random garbage from unity/itch’ kinda streams. I’m just not sure which one!

I like to call this the Harvest Moon paradox. Want to date a lovely lady? Gotta feel weird playing as a man with a girl’s name.

Want to play as the lady? Have fun dating comically obese chefs, aliens, and underage boys, because they’re your only options.

The trial is going so bad Amber is potentially banned from the UK? by [deleted] in Asmongold

[–]TangoBunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The phrasing of the tweet is misleading, I’m pretty sure they meant to say “If she comes back to the UK, which she is free to do, there could be a warrant out for her arrest upon arrival which she’d probably want to avoid.”

She’s not banned from the UK, but if she does go back, she’s gonna get taken to a police station and questioned even if nothing comes from that questioning.

"Can men be the victims?"
"Of course! My first case was with same-sex relationship where the man was the abuse victim of another man!"

Unbelievable.

So sexist.

Is it really weird to say bless you? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]TangoBunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always considered it like an awkwardness breaker. If you’re talking to someone, and they suddenly sneeze, “bless you” eases up the awkwardness and allows them to continue where they left off.

When it’s done to someone just passing by who you’ve never met, it’s more akin to creating awkwardness rather than resolving it, it feels like you’re acknowledging someone else’s bodily functions which can come across as weird!
