Blogshares – Notes from an obsessed player

There’s a part of me that’s been glad for the long downtime. I think I’m going to try and limit my play quite a bit.

Phase I: Forgot about the 342 out there. Will just have to wait on that.

Phase II: Have begun implementation.

Phase III: Have begun implementation.

Phase IV: Going to be a pain in the butt.

I’ve been dealing with a family member who has been ill so my game playing has been limited, but I am back now.

I had to make some adjustments to my DNS server. If you can’t get back on, get on IRC and someone there can probably help.

According to Jay (yes, that Jay) yesterday, they forgot to renew their domain name. I’ll see what’s going on when I have time to go into MiRC later on….

Update:

“SubWolf: OK, in plain English, it’ll [the game] be back on soon, I expect within 24 hours, hopefully much sooner.”

Also: to get into the channel, he wrote this:

“[09:58] <~SubWolf> http://www.strokealley.com/irc-bs.html is a copy of Chris Pirillo’s live access script.”

Yeah, you. The one who can’t let go of your grudge. You know who you are.

Jeez louise, grow the hell up.

has been rearing its ugly head. Still cleaning and working error queues…

And it’s gotten quite bizarre.

A player (will call him Mr. ???) was sending me messages initially about incorrect votes. I dealt with it. He started discussing a dispute he was having with a player from my corp. Now I’m not corp admin and having heard her side of events, and seen through his transactions what had happened, I wasn’t about to intervene for him. Mr. ??? complained that other players from our corp were attacking him with reindexes and links.  I dealt with the IM side of things and suggested he send a message to this player. End the hostilities.

Apparently, that made too much sense.  He informed me that he would be attacking the corp and that since I held most of the holdings, he was sorry but I would be targeted first.  Since corp interest is measured by shares,  I was somewhat confused, because most of my shares are, well, the impolite term would be “crap.”

Reader, he’s been attacking the industries I work. Apparently, he believes that since he lost 100T in ideas, we should all suffer. Now I have worked almost all of these industries with player from other corps. Rather than hurt them, I a) let them know what was happening and b) offered to sell to them rather than dump stuff on the market and have them take a loss.

That is what I did.

Apparently that is not good enough for Mr. ???

He informed them he intended to reindex the hell out of them.

He has now enlarged the hostilities to players from multiple corps.

And the reason I call this player Mr. ???

Is because it’s more polite than Mr. WTH

is here.

Feels so good!
