Sorry Bob and everyone else. I definitely have been acting like a jerk. I didn't restrict the numbers in the beginning because I didn't realize that I should, and when I added the restrictions, at first it was fun, but you kept on outsmarting me. This thread has gone much longer than any of the others and Katya has more posts in it than any other thread she's written in. It shouldn't be like that.bobtheenchantedone wrote:Allow me to possibly be a bit offensive.
I don't like how this round ended. It was fun at first to have these challenges, the restrictions, to work around; the topic was far too broad for it to be at all difficult. However, as the restrictions became more stringent and the why-won't-you-lose-already attitude became more obvious the game was no longer fun. I would have dropped out days ago, but was too stubborn and proud to be knocked out by the increasingly difficult additions to the topic.
I said back in the musicians round that I did not agree with starting a topic, playing for a few days, and then adding restrictions to thin the herd and get on with the next round already. I now request that this does not happen again. Please, everyone, make your topic narrow from the beginning.
If you guys want to continue this thread, I'm okay with that (and today's restriction is officially lifted and the day is extended to tomorrow), but it would probably be best for everyone if I kept away from it from now on. If you guys want to start another round, that's good too, but I just need a break from Encore. Maybe the round after next I'll come back.
