Trouble at EPICon
Hello, I'm Titania McGee with Channel 5 Action News, your best source for up to date information!
Channel 5 is still proud to be bringing you the exclusive content live from EPICon! Just before the commercial break, we had Tres Neufeld of Dynamo Systems sharing exciting new information about the updated weather generation engine for the upcoming sequel to Legend of Hilda. If you missed it, stay tuned for a replay later in the day!
Any minute now, the second of the guest speakers will be taking the auditorium stage. Junichiro Kurokawa, the creator of Almost Metal Scientist, is set to hold a Q&A session regarding the upcoming movie adapt--
Quote:
Look at me! I have a third eye! Oooooh, how intimidating!
Shut it, Nico. Do you even know what a third eye is? No, because all your games rely on brute force and mindless firepower.
Er, sorry about that. There seems to be some kind of argument breaking out in the crowd. As I was saying, the creator of Almost Metal Scientist will be fielding questions from the crowd about the upcoming movie adaption. Said to focus on the Revenge Arc of the plot, many fans are wondering how character development will be handled, or if this film will be a product for the die-hard f--

Of course I know what a third eye is. But you're fighting a freaking lock, Manwar. Just go get a crowbar. It doesn't take psychic ability!
Psst! Cover this, Lloyd.

It's not just any lock, Nico. It's ENCHANTED. Brute force isn't going to work on it! Plus, you know, there are undead protecting it as well. You need strategy!
Strategy? They're living dead. You burn the corpses and move on! Gosh, these card games are so one dimensional. Give me a video game with multiple scenarios going on at once, so I have to think!
I hope you're joking. There are so many threats going on in a card game at once! Your hit points! Your remaining deck! Whether or not you should play that card now or risk waiting! Don't even pretend there's any thinking going on in your games. You point and click and BOOM! the monster is dead.
You act like card games are the only games with a risk of death or cooldowns to consider. You realize most video games also have hit points and a risk if you choose to use a particular move now instead of later, don't you? You're so ignorant and outdated. Just because we have spectacular graphics when we do choose to blow something up, that doesn't mean it's mindless! Join the times, Manwar. Video gaming is much more popular than your tabletop models.
Ignorant and outdated?! Have you even tried playing a card game? They're freaking timeless, and they don't require batteries or tons of cables and wires. And you know the best part? I get to play in a room face-to-face with all of my friends, instead of locked away in MY MOM'S BASEMENT PLAYING AGAINST SOME LOSER NAMED xXxTEABAG69xXx .
You leave my mother out of this! I pay rent and she happens to be an excellent cook! I'm willing to bet you that of all the booths here at this convention, the ones related to video games outsell your "timeless" games by a landslide!
You're on, Nico! Loser has to play the winner's favorite game for a day!
Haha, I'm looking forward to seeing you with a wireless remote in your hands. Later, pal.
You heard it here first, folks! A wager between the Video Gamers and the Tabletop Players. The crowd is already is beginning to rally behind their favorite cause, lining up to support Team Nico or Team Manwar. This is going to be an interesting EPICon! More on this story as it develops. This is Titania McGee signing off. Game on, Subeta!

Hmmm is there any way to change sides? I read the wrong descriptions and joined the wrong game side! Can anyone help with that or am I now stuck with a side I don't want to be on?

You can bet that the average will fly when they bring out the other ways to gain points. I dont have any points yet, though Ive tried. I work for 9 hours a day, have a family to take care of, and just plain SUCK at restocking even when I do get time to try.

It would be nice for people to remember, that even if they do join a side and don't earn points, it's not because they're not trying.
I'm not liking this whole "Average" thing. Nico's team has 40k more points, twice as many restockers, more people in the high score table...and is losing. So theoretically, it doesn't matter how well your team does, because some people will join just to get a trophy and never earn a point. Most of those people are probably twelve-year-old-girls who have never even seen tabletop games before.
So, in theory, unless you join the tabletop gamers with less mainstream fans, it doesn't matter how well you do simply because there are more people dragging down the team than supporting the team.
Well then.

I wanna touch Manwars eyebrows... o3o giggles giddily Not a big fan of RS wars (slow connection and slow typer) but I'm still excited. :3 Let the games begin! And I hope there will be really pony rides. Lol. c_c
It would be nice if people were to remember that if they join a side and don't get points, they drag down the average of the team...
I fail pretty hard at RS since I can't remember what items are 45+ rarity. >_> But Nico it is. PWNy rides ftw!
Bahaha~! Tits McGee! Err.. sorry, just noticed.
I'm a bit slow it seems, ha!
ANYWAY! Woop woop! Intense!

...Actually, come to think of it, watching Nico play D&D would be considerably more entertaining than watching Manwar play Halo.
Now I'm kind of rooting for Manny to win just to see it happen :'D

I can't wait to see the prizes for this war <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> Shame on me for getting rusty on remembering RS rares though..
Video games are for those who are too young to understand the sophisticated concept of tabletops. Scre you guys. Nico has WAY too many noob followers.

WELL PLAYED SUBETA. I DID NOT SEE THIS TURNING INTO AN RS WAR.
Hats off to you, friends.
-super excited-
Hats off to you, friends.
-super excited-
i'm really hoping that some other options pop out soon for us to gather points, since school started today for me and i haven't much time to get on subeta. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> in the hour i've been on subeta, i've managed to scrape up a measly 16 points for team nico. xD at least it's higher than the average, i guess.
FFFUUU, I love both. But I'm more of a gamer than a... tabletop gamer. And I chose the obviously-doomed team last RS war, so I guess I'll go with the more popular team this time.
I hope an actual video game and table top game are involved later on <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
I hope there ends up being some battle opponents as RSing bores me to death, but I think I recall Keith saying there wouldn't be..
boohoo.~
boohoo.~
Hey can anyone help me? I'm stuck on lvl 32 of The Legend of Hilda... I'm trying to beat those valy.... valky.... uhm.... those big opera ladies with the metal bras, but the orcs keep getting in the way! I tried IMing Teabag69, but he's afk atm.
And by the way, he's only named Teabag69 because he had 70 teabags left just before he had a brain fart on his name. His mom hadn't gone to the store yet.... He's an Earl Gray nut....
(hehehehe I posted this in the wrong forum.... Are there any events we can do for this yet? Please message me.)

rifle_669... Oh god I can't pick a team, they both have good points, and seem awesome. Plus I like card games(their serious business!) , but video games are good... ugh... does eenie meenie minie moe ... picks Nico's team
How about they just solve it by playing a CHILDREN'S CARD GAME? :V
Seriously though, sounds like a fun event, especially with the promise of other things to do. Can't wait to see what happens!

I want to be team xXxTEABAG69xXx, but since that option is unavailable, I'll just have to settle for team Nico instead. :V (And disregard the previous blank comment; I am a moron)

I wasn't expecting as restock war, not that I really knew what to expect. I am terrible at restocking but I will do my best lol. Gives me something to do afterschool, which starts tomorrow -sob-.
I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out. This is my first restock war.

Dx I thought this was gonna be something much more interesting. I suck at RS wars and with school going on it'll be even harder.
Oh well. I picked Manwar. I was gonna go for Nico, but I decided not to.

We can earn points my other mean that restocking? AMEN TO THAT KEITH!
I like RS wars even though I hardly get any points xD
Now I need to choose a side. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> This is hard.

And school won't get in the way this year.
Wahoo!
And school won't get in the way this year.
Wahoo!
I usually support the underdog in these kinds of things but since I've been playing video/pc games for all but the first seven years of my life, I can't really abandon ship now ^^ So go Team Nico!
What the eff... the firsat bit of my comment was supposed to say "I heart RS wars"
lol dunno what happened there.
I BLAME MANWAR.

Oh Nico, as living dead person I'm so offended by this. cries a river
But I love video games and you're just too cute, so I will joining you anyway. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />

Also, I've been looking forward to a site event since... well since the last one I guess.
Thank you subeta ilu~

This is too hard, they're both so awesome. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
Huh, I would have chosen Nico, purely on cuteness, until he started acting like a typical 1337 gamer douche.
Screw you Nico.
Screw you Nico.
Geez some of the staff members can be a little testy sometimes, so people don't like your event, big deal. Must agree an RS War is a bit of a let down though, it's an event for well practised users, would be nicer to have something more plot based that people can come back to and do after school rather than refreshing like mad for hours and still not getting anything.
Ergh. I have to <i>choose</i>?
But that's like choosing between Jello shots and Muff Dives.
IT CAN'T BE DONE.

Lol, you cry for an event, they give you one, and you complain some more! XD
Yay RS war! : D I miss out on the last one. -Joins-
This is gonna be fun! ^w^

WTF, how am I supposed to choose which team to join? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" /> I LIKE BOTH KINDS OF GAMES. ;___;
I'm glad there will be other ways to earn points xD I can't RS to save my life.
Totally picking Video Games <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

thanks for that info Keith and the rest of the staff. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful for for me that was 'pokes pin in heart and pops & sob' given for me I'm to rusty and can't sit around all day to RS for my team so this part of the event, I can't really contribute much.
I am reassured by the fact that I won't have to RS to get at least some points. (:
Still not happy about the timing, but no point in beating a dead horse--I think everybody already knows this event is kind of overdue/right at back-to-school time.

If you wanted to give us an RS event, then give us and RS event, don't dress it up as something that sounds far more interesting.
RS wars are way too hard for me anyway. Sadly.

Lmao you guys are so ungrateful. I think it's too close to school starting/during start of school to have some deep long event for all of you, and I'm pretty pleased with a restock war. I now have a chance to do one and do it well ;3
... also, how low Nico's ear is is bothering the hell out of me ;A;

Don't worry, there are plenty of other ways to earn points coming out that don't involve restocking at all <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />.
I'm confused. Are there certain items we're supposed to RS? And it says "You can also earn more points by restocking in your teams shop", but which shop is with which team? Sorry, not familiar with RS wars.
why must school start in less than 3 days? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
You're welcome for the event. Sorry we tried to give you something to do when you were bored. :|
Everyone's joining Nico. XD
I'll have to jump the bandwagon,
I love video games. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />

Who to choose? The one who's probably going to win? Or the one I like? Hmm. The cute one? Or the insane one? HMM. THE HEAT IS ON.
oh god, not a RS war. I knew this event sounded more interesting than it should have. well at least i won't feel too bad for missing it. x: i can sign up and get ~2 points juuuuust like last time.
