Here, I went to bed and woke up. Let me explain this.

I am upset, because Taste tried to use me to gently caress over another player other than me because of "forums drama" and that Winvirus allowed this because he thought it would be funny. What Taste tried to do had nothing to do with the game, it was personal to him. In the chatlogs above you can see he was upset.

I am upset because Winvirus instead of stopping this when I came to him, lied to me.

I am upset that Taste won't owned up to what he did and admit he was wrong. Because he knows he is wrong. When I told taste I was going to inform Winvirus of what happened, he began editing the skype logs. He was trying to do damage control. Just like how he was trying to act above it all in this thread a while ago.

I am upset because I wanted to get through this game with the minimum amount of "drama" possible and tried to avoid hurting people. But what Taste did was tried to use me to gently caress with another player. And this really had nothing to do with the game, but Winvirus allowed it.

This game lost any sort of validity of actually being a game.

Shits hosed up.

Just so everyone is clear, the moderation team will use better discretion in the future regarding things like this, and opting instead for straightforward answers instead of "this could be rly funny to mess with capps for a minute" and letting it spiral into some huge issue that affects multiple players. There's not really much else I can say on the matter; I've already apologized and I am prone to human error just as much as anyone else. I am leaving my personal opinions out of this.

If someone is claiming they're cheating, and I find out they're not, then they're just a jerk and maybe you should vote to eliminate them. If someone is actually cheating, they will be instantly eliminated and blackballed from any game I run.

If anyone has any further questions regarding these issues, I urge you to contact me privately. If you wish to exit the game, simply do not vote for two consecutive cycles. If you are no longer having fun, take a few days away from a game on the internet and do something else. Happy holidays!

Capps, you're a loving baby who can't process that maybe making fun of someone who claims to know everything that's going on by introducing new conflicting info isn't in fact either a major violation or somehow an attempt to hurt someone else.

I would explain further but I actually do care about the integrity of this game and winvirus, whose rules I have not broken in letter or spirit.

I realize you consider yourself some sort of TGR savant and that's fine but consider embracing the idiot portion and realizing you don't have to act down to the age jokes people make about you.

Taste, you're not in this game anymore and nobody's going to be impressed if you get the last word. Just stop.

# ? Nov 26, 2014 22:08

t a s t e: Sep 6, 2010

I don't really care about the last word, I don't intend on sticking around any further.

I just wanted to make it clear that I have nothing to apologize for.

I never claimed I knew everything in the game.

You are just making yourself look like more of an rear end in a top hat.

You are lying. Stop trying to save face Taste. You went out of your way to gently caress with a player in this game who isn't me because of stupid forums drama. And you tried to use me to do this.

I have spoken with Taste privately and he will (should) no longer post in this thread. Thank you all for your cooperation.

I don't find thanksgiving meats very exciting. We normally have dinner rolls on the side and I love those. Also, pumpkin pie.

I'm still not clear on why that's wrong, though. It seems like it's in the spirit of the game

I'm doing the thing I call other people crazy for and just submitting my vote early and chilling out.

I voted for Nexal. Sorry Nexal!

Happy Thanksgiving all!
