Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

BEHOLD

    Part of me feels like Tube using an alt will make people more hesitant about bidding next year.

    Assuming he does it again, yeah. Seriously, this strikes me as pretty lame. I'll freely admit I didn't bid this year (I do plan to donate some money directly), but if I had I'd be kinda miffed. Seems like he should at least go along with it for a month or two. I mean I know it's for charity, and nobody's gonna feel bad about donating... but $3000? God damn.

    I donated and thought this was hilarious

    also the glorious edict is now ten times funnier due to the change

    what's that podcast

    you know, where they realize they didn't do the "be in a penny arcade strip" auction item, and how they essentially robbed him, and Gabe's all, yeah but we robbed him for charity, that's a wash in my book

    not the PATV one (they've done this multiple times I guess)

    Wonder what other loopholes we'll see. I suppose TUBE01 will have their account banned as soon as their name is changed.

    the only thing that would make this better is if Ramius posted and said he was in on the whole thing, so Tube's alt won't be banned

    I was thinking...the old alts punishment was banning the original account and forcing them to post as the alt. This would work out just fine for Lewie P's Tube-Dad.

    of course it's the case, but you still did a pretty dishonest thing just to rub a bunch of people who just gave money to charity's noses in how clever you are.

    Can't ban an admin anyway, can you? Even Ramius couldn't, not without removing admin (which is doable I'm sure).

    Pretty lame finish to an otherwise awesome process. Still proud of the 50+ people we had contribute over $3,000 to this.

    then again, as Gabe says, stealing for charity is pretty much a wash

    and this isn't even technically stealing

    how was it dishonest

    he said he would change his username

    he did

    he just made a new account with his old name

    nothing in the rules said he couldn't do it

    Judging by a rough polling of the reactions in this thread 90% of people found this to be funny.

    I think we all fully expected Cardboard Tube to do this

    honestly I was expecting him to change his name for like, a day then change it back

    because technically he could do that as well

    I do not care

    Anyways people are missing the point that charity is just that- a charitable act, you can't look at it in a selfish light because that defeats the purpose of it

    The rules of the forum apply to the users, not the staff. Notice that normal users also can't post in on topic threads to bring them back on topic or violate the glorious edict.

    You could have done that just as easily by making the name/words banned from the name list.

    If I'd done that it genuinely would have been bullshit. That's like if I'd knitted a hat for the auction and stolen it back the next day. This is like knitting a hat for the auction and then getting a new hat to replace it. Y'all didn't lose anything. The prize was the hat, not the joy of taking the hat from someone.
