Well those are strategy games, big difference there. Puzzle games are scored-based, so they should be about achieving a high score within a certain amount of time, not a marathon to see how long you can last.

Those guys tended to translate that to everything they played.

Isn't the point of 'Marathon Mode' in puzzle games to go for as long as possible?

Mop it up · « **Reply #27 on:** June 18, 2009, 12:19:28 AM »

No. Your score isn't measured in time.

Stratos · « **Reply #28 on:** June 18, 2009, 12:43:34 AM »

then why the name "Marathon Mode"? You want to keep going for as long as possible. That is what that mode is for. For a player good at the game, more time playing = higher score.

That doesn't mean it has to last for hours. The difficulty should ramp up quickly so you can try to last longer and longer without having to have 5-hour sessions each time.

Some games take a long time to ramp up in difficulty.

Those games bore me.

Stratos · « **Reply #32 on:** June 18, 2009, 01:06:41 AM »

Same here most of the time, but they do exsist.

Guess who's working the 13 hour security shift and is bored? At least I can patrol the building from time to time but that's getting old again. Instead of the security office door not opening my mag card can't open any of the outer doors. But I have a hard key for all those so it's not a problem so long as I have those.

Anyone want to tell me a story? (a safe for work story?)

Can you watch the Zelda live blog?

Stratos · « **Reply #35 on:** July 18, 2009, 07:54:21 PM »

No,internet connection isn't that good. I saw it for a bit but it kept having to rebuffer. I also don't want to spike my bandwidth to much and too often and risk losing my internet privelege.

What about joining the chat? Maybe somebody could give you a play-by-play...

Stratos · « **Reply #37 on:** July 18, 2009, 08:36:42 PM »

I was on the chat, but no one was chatting back until some weirdo asked if I was a girl and then I got disconnected. :/

Plus I can pretty much guess where they are from Maxi's comments here.

Wrong chat, lol.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #39 on:** July 18, 2009, 08:43:37 PM »

Yeah right now they are going to get through the Gurudo Fortress and trying to avoid being caught.

Stratos · « **Reply #40 on:** July 18, 2009, 09:08:19 PM »

I actually enjoyed that part a whole lot back in the day. Partly because as soon as I got Epona wandered anywhere and everywhere I could in the game and felt all special discovering it before the game told me about the area.

Good times.

Nobodys told me a story yet...

Mop it up · « **Reply #41 on:** July 18, 2009, 09:14:43 PM »

Yeah sorry, busy. Why don't you write a story?

Stratos · « **Reply #42 on:** July 18, 2009, 09:15:10 PM »

I don't wanna.

Mop it up · « **Reply #43 on:** July 18, 2009, 09:16:35 PM »

What better do you have to do?

Stratos · « **Reply #44 on:** July 18, 2009, 09:17:33 PM »

But I did see a funny poster in the school here.

It says "Protect Yourself, Taste The Rainbow" and has a bunch of different colored condom packets falling from the sky and a whole bowl full as well. Odd and funny. Thought about starting a thread about it but I can't find the image online and I think that would be perfect.

They just started taking a break from the Zelda marathon.

Are you working tomorrow? I'll probably be up late tonight since I've had a lot of sleep today.

Stratos · « **Reply #46 on:** July 18, 2009, 10:01:43 PM »

I am. But I might be able to be on for a little bit tonight. I want to do some things in my town like water flowers and finish clearing the stuff I collected from you off the ground. I never put half of it away.

And you wonder why your boss doesn't give you any hours for 3 weeks straight.

Stratos · « **Reply #48 on:** July 19, 2009, 12:13:25 PM »

Has nothing to do with that.

Client I was highered specifically to help with canceled their contract. I'm not the only one getting little to no hours. Besides, I'm allowed to use the internet. So long as I make a patrol every hour and watch the cameras it is all good. That is what I was told. I don't normally work here anyway. I'm the official cover guy for this site when the two main guys are not available.

What if one of the two main guys is reading this right now? ...And that fellow is vudu?
