It's mighty quiet around these parts. I guess nobody can take things seriously unless everything is on the line like in a LGT. That is, you lose, gg sir, you're gone forever.
Or maybe a lot of this silence has to do with everybody only trying to come here with a trusted ally, and leaving when they realized their buddy left. Kind of makes sense, there can only be so many Akiyamas and Yokoyas in here--seems like a bunch of weak players who can't fight without help, lack any resourcefulness whatsoever. Perhaps you guys were wise to give up. I'm not saying all of you are weak, it's...just a hypothesis. I challenge you guys to prove me wrong.
...Guess I ought to finish that 1v1 game I was making since I'll be the only opponent for the next 100 miles.

Yes, having incentive not to lose generally gives players incentive to win. But I don't think many people would play if losing was as bad as the LGT. And I don't have the money to make the payouts that good either.  On a more serious note, I'm going to be running this for as long as I can, and that's only dependent on activity. If, for whatever reason, we lose everybody, then that's that. But as long as there's at least 2 players around, I can run games for people to play. However, the more the merrier, as they always say! So if you did happen to come here with said trusted ally who left... bring them back in! Or bring in another!  |

Let's hope we can even get to lgt 3. I will keep on my non-posting way of doing silly things.

Now I'm curious, how did we get a bunch of players in the first place?

By my understanding, the Casino brought in people from previous LGTs, along with players connected to those players and the dealers, plus a number of people who found this by pure happenstance (or advertising/links that others put up). I'm actually rather happy we got up to 25 players in the first place, though in actuality only around 18 people participated, and only 5 remain... If we still had that pool of 18 players, or even just 10, this would be a much more active forum.  As for the other LGTs, I wasn't around for their beginnings so can't tell you. I happened across LGT2 by chance after wanting to make a RL version of LGT so quickly signed up. Sometimes you just get lucky?  |

And here we are, with nuthin happening again.
Where art thou? Dealer fatigue of the lies and deceptions? Liars afraid to put their pride (and gobs of money) on the line?

People disappear. And when they don't, they lurk. As they disappear, less things happen. As less things happen, more disappear. It's a sad and vicious cycle that must be remedied! ...or else things shut down... Like so... Ahah! Hah... *cough*

Another possibility is to introduce yourself in the introductions board by making a thread there and so forth. Or create a thread somewhere else, like the lounge with some topic. Hopefully people would respond? Just a suggestion. People around include 10k, Iain7, Cyrus, Moritaka, and Freih. Morte was around until the closing of the Casino, and he may be checking in from time to time, but it would appear that he's no longer participating. And Moritaka's not much of a poster (I still say it's the M's!). Other than that... most people have disappeared after maybe playing a game or two, hence the existence of this thread. |

Hey Alydar, where IS that 1v1 game I was working on anyway? Last time I remember, it was next to that paper shredder you kept grinning about...

It was my turn to respond? Paper shredder? Hmm... I remember differently. *shuffles through papers* *finds a few and takes them out of the stack* *looks through them* *sets them down to think* *begins rolling dice* *writes down dice rolls* *calculates offset from by-chance probability* *repeats dice rolling* *thoroughly distracted from initial goals* *the papers sit forlorn on the desk* *has an idea for a game* |

Hah! Funny that the thread called 'Nobodyville' should become the casual message board! Anyway, it's nice to meet you, Rise. If you're looking for information about the goings on here, I'd suggest you read Alydar's post in my introduction thread ( lgtcasino.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=intro&action=display&thread=476 ) since he was kind enough to explain what happened prior to my arrival. Not a bunch has happened since I've been here. Shortly after I showed up, Moritaka joined our number and him, myself, Iain7, 10k and Morte played Directionally Challenged. Then the Casino 'officially' closed, and Morte sort of disappeared, likely leaving since all the good food was gone. During the closing of the Casino, another girl registered, but never activated her account. Shortly after it closed, a plucky young man named Freih showed up - I imagine him as plucky anyway, very energetic. Then all of us (sans Morte, of course) played 10k's minigame, Rigged Cee-lo. Then you showed up. I think that covers it. Anyway, good to see you, and I hope the games continue joyously! |
