re: Twitch Plays Pokemon *OT*

Australia's inability to retrieve Zapdos from the PC after catching him. Those idiots literally spent 7-8 hours trying to pull him out while releasing 12-13 pokemon, only to eventually give up without actually getting him out. It was America who finally pulled him out after the carnage, along with divine intervention from Lord Helix that saved Bird Jesus from being released (he literally should have been released during a democracy vote, but somehow wasn't). Zapdos also survived the anarchy axe 3/4 times

I have tried watching this a couple of time, would someone that has never played a pokemon game in his life please explain wtf is going on? What is anarchy and democracy, I assume it's the masses vs the voice of reason but don't know. Who has master control of what is happening?

Anyone can input a command - A, B, up, down, left, right, start - and multiple people are trying to do this at the same time. "Anarchy" means the game will follow every command regardless of what it is. "Democracy" means the game will wait 20 seconds and follow the command that is made the most within that time. Besides the button commands, people can vote for anarchy or democracy by saying either one in the command, and the game constantly balances between either mode based on a continuous "tug-of-war" vote.

We seem to have hit a hitch with bots spamming down and hindering our progress. Doesn't look like we're getting out of Pallet anytime soon

Agreed. It's just going to be a lot harder with all the bots now. We're going to be riding Lord Helix through Victory Road and past Bruno since the two Jesuses will get stomped by his 2 Onix, and obviously before all of that, through Giovanni as well

Is Air Jordan still with us? If so Bruno shouldn't be a problem with Lord Helix and Air. Oh, and Nidoking knows surf? We're fine against Bruno.

Why is it now offline?

Then why did you laugh and say what is that when you heard Pokemon music coming from my phone?

Dyrus is a believer.
