Pinko-commie hippy!

Well, yeah, but Aardvarkian games are insensitive according to SCD. You just can't produce fun stories with insensitively designed games.

Squirrels, the other white meat.

When you look around you have to wonder,
Do you play to win or are you just a bad loser?

Oh noes, James Skach has been nibbling on the Bill's Story Nut. Once bitten forever will it dominate your game play.

Quote from: HinterWeltIt is sad really. You have played Aardvarks so long you don't even realize you are not having fun. The biggest part is that you do not now you have colon damage anyway. You just keep tooling away at you Aardvarks and Ant Hills thinking "Oh, I am having fun" but really, you just don't understand that there are alternatives out there. A whole squirrel style of gaming is so much more fun. Remember folks, the Big Nut model of play, Squirrel-Cat-Dog or SCD, can be your guide to cognizant game design.


Please stop saying game design. Squirrel play is not real play. All you have is a few deranged nuts rolling about spewing the Big Nut theory which is so full of holes and pretending to create art. You have no knowledge of gaming lore or strategic thinking . Squirrel play is a pyramid scheme.

Pshaw.  A&A is great if you want to do Ant Hill crawls - everyone knows that. But if you really want to role-play you need to understand SCD and play squirrel games.

Go. Nuts.

Squirrel play is all about fun and actual play with your nuts. No one can argue that is bad. Heck, even if you do not have your own nuts you can always play with some one else's nuts. A&A leaves you high and dry if you do not have your own ant hill.

Big Nut Theory is the only viable theory in RPGs today. Think about your last A&A game. What? Maybe 20 minutes of ant in 4 hours of play? That is because it is insensitive and non-cognizant. You're colon damaged and don't even know it. And don't even get me started on what Cheetos do to your rectum...

Really, take a hard look at your game. Does it fit SCD? No, why not? Most likely because you cannot sit in one place for all the bleeding from your colon. Eat more nuts man!

Dr Rotwang!

...wow.

Just -- just....

...wow.

By the way, if you're not playing with SCD in mind, you are educated stupid.  4-corner dice are the truth.

Nuts constipate me. I'm going to stick with what we know has been absolutely proven by the market to work! Screw this namby-pamby tree-rodent talk, talk, talk. Come on, it's just a pack of hobbist wannabes wanking off. Professional? Dudes it's squirrels. Squirrels, and usually about sexually amoral stuff too. Putting the Wedding Cake in peril is just double talk for an agenda to undermine the Family.

AA&A till I die, baby. Think of the Children.

The management does not endorse the comments expressed in this signature. They are solely the demented yet hilarious opinions of some random guy(gal?) ranting on the Interwebs.

Quote from: DwightAA&A till I die, baby.

Forget AA&A. A&A 3e is much better, because it is using unified rock-paper-scissors. And you can play bunch of other rock-paper-scissors games such as Rock-paper-scissors Forest, where you can play much more anything not just ants.

A plague on both your houses! You AA&A grognards are inflexible fossils fixed in your own matrix of moribund, meaningless play! You koolaid-swilling SDC sans-culottes are waving the red flag of revolution over an intellectually bankrupt and morally despicable theory, throwing out babies with every pan of bathwater!

I will go my own way! Evolution, not revolution or stagnation!

It's wedding PIE numbnuts!  You are there to save Princess Cashewe's Wedding Pie. THAT is a REAL story. You obviously have not read the proper material and I just can't discuss Big Nut Theory until you have.

And Nuts are good for your colon man! Fiber flushes the system. Ants just give you the runs with their high fructose content. Colon damage.
