Round XXVI

Scott Hardie | June 26, 2005
To conclude several ongoing discussions about the goo game (or at least merge them into one): I have decided not to tamper with the rules this round. I will more likely than not switch to a towers system for next round. For now, my primary emphasis is on "fun" goos, and my secondary emphasis is on "easy" goos. I don't want many goos this round to be difficult or unpleasant.

For the moment, I have added two bits of information to the site: A tracking of each player's main GOO statistics next to their grid, and a list of all Upcoming Goos at the bottom of the Current Goos page. (link) I will be adding a few more little touches like this as I have time. Suggestions and requests are always welcome, though as many users can tell you, I'm not so quick to implement them. :-) Thanks for making the goo game such a fun interactive experience; I wouldn't enjoy it half this much if I didn't have this outlet to talk to y'all about it.

Also: Now's a great time to begin trash-talking.

You know, you threatened to shut down TC for problems and now you seem to be inciting them, geeze, Hardie.... make up your fuckin' mind!!!!! :)

Well... I'm guilty of the crime of kidding on the Internet, which is easy to take seriously. I don't actually condone trash-talking; I'm making fun of the trend towards goo trash-talking. I'll stop. (And no more spoofing Bill O'Reilly in other discussions for me either.)

I was kidding around... I got your sarcastic vibe. I'm just overtired, overworked, and underpaid.

You actually work? Where do you find time to play the goo game and txt msg me all day when I actually have a job to do? I mean seriously, work harder on getting fired so you can fully concentrate on not losing this round.
