The Safari concept was entertaining.

I'm not into the board culture over at PD, but they seem overall to be an interesting bunch of folks.

Hey hey, Payne here, from PD.

Just wanted to post a few thoughts on your safari.

I wasn't involved in the safari from PD to here, or in yours back to PD (except for posting a couple times about my WOMP work, with naturally inflated ego regarding my abilities. I'm not really THAT conceited*).

Overall, I think you guys achieved what you wanted out of it which is what's really important. The first phase reminded me terribly of our own first safari. Back then I was very much involved with them. We boarded some Canadian general discussion board as colonial-era explorers complete with pith hats and were looking for "Dr. Livingstoned". When the admin showed up, we were banned en masse.

While you weren't banned, your safari was received in much the same way as our very first.

With some hints and tips from Tiki, I think you were much more successful with your second attempt. You seemed to have fun anyway, which is the first priority. Some people refused to play along even for the second go, but that's more from a sense of 'once bitten, twice shy'. As you may have noticed if you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone.

The only thing I noticed was you seemed to be interacting with yourselves far more than with the regulars (fair enough, really. It was interacting with the natives that got you burned in phase one). Seeing as people are throwing around 'out of 5's' I'd give this overall attempt 3/5 and the second phase 4/5.

Internet Safaris can be hella fun, but the fun comes from the challenge. If you are trying to lead a bunch of people with 'authority issues' through a situation which you're trying to avoid becoming a mass boarding/trolling exercise, it can be difficult. Getting it right can pay off big time though.

Also, to give you a little background information here, there has been a bunch of paranoia and bad blood floating around PD lately. There has been at least one person sabotaging some of our projects which is totally NOT cool. If it wasn't for the slightly defensive nature generally adopted by PDers, you'd see we're normally down for any program. Not to say everyone would play along, but you'd have more people who were willing to.

I may stick around for a while to see if I actually like you guys or not, but on first impressions, I have to say you're not ALL bad.

Goodbye, and good luck!



*Okay, I am usually that conceited. I sign my name "THE MOTHERFUCKIN' MESSIAH!" after all...

P.S. I'mma post this on your thread on PD too, just cause it's a general announcement type thing.

Cellar roving reporter at your service once again...

So, I 'read' about 1/3 of PD last night. That's all I could stand. Remember the bi-polar grad student we had in the lab years ago? It was like trying to read her lab notebook when she was ramping up to full blown mania.

Some things were interesting...some funny-ish. Pretty much a collection of a bunch of inside jokes, like if we tried to write a book about the Church of the Whale Penis while high on 'shrooms. :3eye:

Meh.

Why was that dumb? Did they make fun of our foreheads?

classicman 02-06-2009 08:40 AM

Sorry everyone - you're stuck with me. That place was just....
not right.

Sundae 02-06-2009 08:43 AM

Be fair - not right for us.
I'm sure they'd find this place too slow and twee for them...

Me? It's my home and I love it.
