On to the next run.... more rules.
A fierce fight over the weekend. It’s very special that so many are wasting their weekend for this thread.
Boys will feel really depressed about being sooo close. You did well. I appreciate the significant push! Girls simply did not want to loose. And they didn’t. Unfortunately, I have to introduce a new rule.... Some play this game very serious. They spend multiple sessions of 90 minutes of which only fractions count. Loosing against others who fight even harder is bad but also brings respect. However, living in doubt whether the others are playing by the rule is bad. I already once have expelled a player who was clearly playing different then claimed (posts are removed). Also you Will see banned accounts.... Sad.... sad.... Only thing to say... it happed both with the girls and boys. It’s still bad. There is no good way of being sure in that. On the one hand I want to make sure everybody feels the competition is fair. On the other hand I want everybody to feel confident her/his honesty is not doubted. And I want to keep the competition open to everybody. For that reason: - new players need to have a minimum of 100 posts Or - new players need to start an “ama” (ask me anything) in the ama section >>here<<and be responsive (can refuse questions that are too personal) in that until they have 100 posts or no longer play in this cornertime thread. This rule applies to new players only In addition: - if anybody doubts the honesty of others, feel free to send me a pm. I will not “just” expell people but will surely look into the matter. |
Close....
Okay......
This is bad. Just discovering 3 double accounts on this thread. It took me a bit. First thought of a rule change (see above), But it seems nok. The people I like and know have already used their most effective time. The girls clearly had an unfair gain. Earlier in the game the boys had an unfair gain. Al together,... I think I have to just call the “end”. No winner... Actually,.. better,... all winners. All did time. All did BIG time. To win, for the gender, for me. Thanks. Don’t forget. Be proud! (It will take a bit, but I will make a new thread) |
Hmmm...
Its a shame people feel they have the need to cheat. |
A sad ending, but yes a win for all who stretched themselves, who played.
It was certainly looking weird at the end, even as I was inviting a few guys to join the party. So to them I have to apologize. And especially to Centurion, paaltje, pariah, you came in even when it looked odd and was (temporarily) a losing cause. Thanks guys! |
Ok, last post was 00:30 am my time. I knew it was needed but not much time to really say all i wanted to say.
I can only say,... it sucks. I know, i know very well that most on this thread have played honestly. I know most DID the tedious, long, boring time. I know most reports were genuine. I know they did it to proof themselves, to DO something for the gender, to please me, to feel challenged and more reasons. All should be proud. It is very sad someone found the need not to "just fool oneself" (personally i don't mind), or to write phantastic but unreal reports (i don't mind either), but to push others for doing time on a lie. That's bad. It's probably abuse. Anyway. Don't let the cheater win. You did it! Be proud! Feel a winner! |

And yes it will be announced here. I need some time to recover. I didn't do the standing, but this also hurts me. As thread organizer i feel responsible. Note that the bans are there on my request. Mods normally don't interfere with content but i have asked a mod to check because it became too bad. So... i need some time before enthusiastically start something new. It will be announced here. It will be in cornertime. Let's say...... starting december-1. A nice thread to waste x-mass :) |

Unfortunately, I'll be away most of December. Or is that lucky me I won't be wasting time :) But like this thread, perhaps I will catch it near the end and of the month. |
To be honest,
I had expected "some" cheating. It's unavoidable on a platform like this. Also note that i catched a guy-cheater few weeks ago, its not just girls (he removed his posts so you cannot see it). With the 1/N rule i figured that the impact on the game would stay in limits. I had not expected a single person to cheat with 3 identities. Its bad. And the more i think about it, its abuse. As in "enforcing non-consensual tasks". Nhaa... move-on. Quote:

First of all I want to thank Sir Sam for this competition. Although there were some people who didn't play by the rules, it has been an interesting competition. Especially when the weeks ended.
I would love to push my time further (although it will be boring). And now I'm just wondering what is in store for us next. It will be most likely I will enter the next competition too, if I got the time for it. Just wondering what it will be. The standings weren't for all people a waste of time. I went further than I thought I could, thus pushing myself. And I guess some others here did too. Somehow I got some joy out of the stands I was doing, it might have been the competition or he fact that I pushed myself and succeeded. I just couldn't be happy with a boring stand less than an hour. And Marv, no worries about calling me in. It had been a pleasure to be in this competition and contributing in it. |
I don't understand why anyone would cheat in what is essentially a zero stakes game.
I've never been interested in corner time before but I enjoyed trying something different and the competitive aspect made it even more fun. Looking forward to seeing a new game in the future. Thanks to all the honest players out there who made the game worthwhile. |
New game will be posted in 11hrs and 30mins!!!!
Make sure to keep an eye on this thread. |
