the fuck
just leave it how it was
eventually people will get bored, leave, and when there's less people, there's less confusion/trolling and the level will be cleared
it's not rocket science
Just how you're complaining about there being democracy while at the same time complaining about people complaining.
Lame meme-mongers... really?

Spoken like a true anarchist. You have my respect.
Game Corner to fight Giovanni. The way is clear.
when people get that, progress will be made.
Which is why we have been wandering around Celadon for the past hour even after getting the lift key? No one is actually playing Pokemon, they are playing how they play Pokemon.
ok thx dude

The real catalyst for change in this stream has been the lack of linear goals after the defeat of the fourth gym leader.
Now that there are so many places for us to go, we can't get anywhere.

Against better judgment, Red was directed to Eevee instead of gaining Lapras. They then followed this by buying a fires stone with their money instead of a water stone, meaning no Vaporeon, meaning no Surf. A mix-up at the computer caused Charmeleon and Rattata to be released. Flareon has led us astray.

We were doing shit like that even when the stream only had 10k viewers.
Voting for a lifeline will require 75% of users agreeing. 1 vote per person. It would get rid of the voting metagame for now, until twitch gets stuck for another 24 hours.
I dunno, the whole stupid democracy vs anarchy thing burnt me out. I kept thinking "we're wasting time arguing about this shit when we should be coordinating to get the key." Because we could do it. Rocket Base isn't the hardest area in the game; I think the first Ledge was worse and we beat that. Hell, I think Rock Tunnel was worse since we only beat it through sheer luck of boxing Digrat.
But nooo, we had to waste time arguing about whether we were Anarchists or Democrats.

Oh you mean like what the Democracy system does without the waiting for hours, possibly days on the same puzzle?

People want everything handed to them in a silver platter. A vote for START9, is a vote for ANARCHY.
...we always do that. It took hours to get into the casino with the old system too.

No, we weren't. I've been here since 1800 viewers, and early on the dynamic was while we were absolutely hopeless at movement, we were always progressing in a clear direction. Heading off to totally random places didn't happen, what did happen was 3 hours of trying to walk in a straight line. Even during the wars we didn't go to random places; we just went round in circles. The fact we've gone all the way as far as behind the houses for no reason indicates to me that the anarchy/democracy system is so distracting that the bots are putting in more direction inputs than users.
So at first it was simple. We were monkeys banging rocks together.
Then we discovered a fossil and religion was born.
Then factions broke off into separate religions.
Then we founded a government, and those factions are competing against each other.
When do we get to repealing obamacare?

Maddox in 2014... really?
yes that's the whole fun part
once it's actually cleared it'll be amazing
messing with that lessens the impact
besides if the maze is so fucking hard they should just buy pokedolls and hope to god they don't toss them. seems easier.

people also don't want to spend all their time fighting junk inputs.
This is about compromise.

Gee thanks guys.
The game has opened up compared to the linear sections of early game. The way is less clear to the majority of people and/or there are conflicting ideas of what we should be doing.

Yeah we got the key but haven't done much else since. anarchy/democracy is slowing the game down a good bit.
Here's the thing, whether people like it or not, trolls are part of this experience as well. The feelings of success came from overcoming all these odds and moving forward despite the chaos.
Now all of that is gone and people are more focused on choosing what system they want instead of progression. Which also means the trolls get a lot of power as they can influence the game even more by actually focusing on typing movement and input commands.

You want them to buy pokedolls?
Okay go make them with inputs during anarchy mode. Good luck.
Still over a hundred more pages possible!
Awesome. I need to go find a video of the fight to get the key.

That would be true if we were oscillating between, say, Celadon and Saffron, but we're not. We're dicking around behind houses (or were). Even allowing for non-linearity, there was no reason to go there.
Chat got Eevee. Party was full as a result.
Chat needed a Pokemon that could surf so they attempted to buy a water stone to get a Vaporeon, but bought a fire stone instead.
Evolved eevee into Flareon, but still needed a pokemon that could learn surf, so they attempted to deposit some pokemon to make room in the party.
Ended up releasing Charmeleon (Abby) and Ratatta (Jay Leno) into the wild as a result. Flareon, the false prophet, claims its first victims.
Spoken like a true 50ppp person.
Holy shit.........
