And I'd like to offer that exactly none of those points qualifies me to be part of the dev team.korexus wrote:You offered to make a game for us. Oh and you persistently made constructive comments, without starting any flamers. If you're going to be useful, inteligent *and* reasonable of course you're going to get lumbered with the responsibility!
And I offer to make lots of things for lots of people every day ... that only makes me a friendly person who is unable to deliver on his promises. When I actually *make* something that others can play (the map thingy doesn't count -- that's not really a game ... although it might be seen as a form of entertainment, if you're easily entertained) ... then we can talk.

I suppose a joke about Goatherder here would simply get me in trouble, eh?

I dont recall the forum being this active for a long time.
I wont steal the thread here but I am simply loving the fact that I got some juices flowing here Vortan. Sorry if I offended you personally but please keep in mind that this is a gamingcommunity. Anything goes. As some pointed out I tend to make fun of everything (including myself) and I believe that I am an acquired taste so to speak so hang in there and eventually youll too see the humor. In the meantime Ill do my best to get on your nerves.
Oh and I am originally Norwegian so Mullog might be a problem.
Ok. Sorry. I'll let you all get back to the WSC debate and that discussion you have about....goats??

I've spoken with Mullog separately (we're old mates ever since we happened to join in the same month), but is this Mull's first re-appearance on the public forums?
In which case, any new people should know that WOK owes Mullog a lot. Mull did the main programming that essentially changed WOK from play-by-email-look-at-the-site to play-online. Yep, before Mull, you used to have to send your orders to the GM to input for you. And it took the GM ages. A then-student Kor was effectively Mull's apprentice at the time, before Kor assumed his current godlike level (see kor's post above about handing the keys back).
I just thought new people should know who Mull is. So we all let him win a game occasionally, OK?

Hey, Duke! The new players are taking you seriously! That's pretty funny!
Where are those stories that Duke wrote? Show them to Vortan and the other new players. That will give them an idea of what Duke is all about.
On a related note ... is there really a thought about bringing back the WSC? Don't you need more than about 6 people playing WOK for it to make sense? (just slightly joking with that last sentence)

Or you can let me team up with Han in every game. Then I'll win anyway.Hannibal wrote:I just thought new people should know who Mull is. So we all let him win a game occasionally, OK?
Anyway. The ones who really deserve praise are Korexus, and Han and Trewqh and the others that kept developing the game while nobody else were around! Maybe we should chose them as WOK Supreme Chancellors?
