Until now!
"Everyone is an idea man. Everybody thinks they have a revolutionary new game concept that no one else has ever thought of. Having cool ideas will rarely get you anywhere in the games industry. You have to be able to implement your ideas or provide some useful skill. Never join a project whose idea man or leader has no obvious development skills. Never join a project that only has a web designer. You have your own ideas. Focus on them carefully and in small chunks and you will be able to develop cool projects."

Having a winner is great and all. But what about 2nd and 3rd place?
I know the concept is Last post... but you know, think of the great contributions made by those 2nd and 3rd place people.
And besides , the first place guy probably cheated, or it was fake news, or possibly a hoax.
And let's not forget about the Matrix. Can we ever really be certain we are making a post?
Just a few electrical signals sent to the brain maybe wouldn't qualify.
And where is the official rule book located? I'm new here.
And I just don't know. It sounds like fun, but is it worth all the time and effort of being the Last Post Standing?
And what if you win. That's a lot of responsibility to reign as the Last Post Standing King or Queen. Wow. That puts a lot of pressure on me. It's overwhelming to think about.


A lot for me to think about. I know.

I do have a lot of stories though, come to think of it.
Maybe i could come here, post one of those stories and be winning, even if it is only for a little while.
Hmmmmm.


I'm 72 percent not sure, 17 percent I don't know and 11 percent undecided.

ProTip 1: anybody using the phrase "I'm a True Fan and You're Not!" is an obnoxious, self-centered, egotistical, elitist, narcissist douchebag.
ProTip 2: anybody who uses the "Royal We" when making a demand wants to pass their own opinion as everyone else's.
ProTip 3: Only the people that do nothing but criticize don't make mistakes. Do things. Make mistakes. Learn from them. And screw those who do nothing but throw poison and criticize.
ProTip 4: If the Duke Nukem Forever fiasco wasn't enough of a lesson, perfectionism leads to nothing positive. Don't be afraid of releasing a buggy product. Even the most polished product has its flaws.
