Heard about this a couple days ago. Should have known you frickers would have a thread on it.

This is awesome. Want to get home and contribute to the mayhem.

The entire subculture it has spawned is pretty hilarious.


ETA: Post 420.

The group controlling democracy right now is on a roll. It seems like they've finally adjusted to the delay.

I have never played Pokemon either but this whole thing has really intrigued me. I've heard they have already started other streams doing this with other games such as "Zelda."

I think if you find the perfect two player game where two groups could attack each other in this fashion it would be absolute gold.

There's no possible way. They wouldn't be able to use their sword properly to kill anything.

Yea, it wouldn't work at all.

Watching this feed is driving me nuts though. The trolls are just lame.

Pokemon works because you select what you want to do from a menu.

Yeah, Zelda would not work. I just took a buddies word for it without thinking that part through.

I still don't comprehend how they're doing anything. I feel like the mod or whoever is manipulating the game to make stuff happen.

I think people are using bots to spam commands. Either that or I have no idea how the decision process is made because I refuse to believe that there is a majority of people out there who want to troll.

It just seems like the troll inputs far outnumber the nontrolls.

The idea behind this is really cool and quite funny, but the actual people taking part are making me lose faith in humanity.

Also, I really must not understand the input system. Right can be chosen 20 times and then one left seems to negate the multitude of rights. Just seems odd.

ETA: This will never work without democracy.

There was a massive issue with bots, t he stream actually went down earlier today to see the accounts that were still inputting commands after the stream was down. They banned all of those accounts and restarted the stream.

They won't get into the gym until another country takes over and democracy won't happen with the current players.

The only way they get into the gym is with democracy. Anarchy isn't gonna cut it.

Nope. It's pretty sad. They can't get anywhere near democracy either.

This is a social science experiment to validate the pros and cons of democracy.
