Under rating threshold (show) we have a big debt, bad health, 75% taxes and bad defences (even mozambique can conquer us) but people is happy. I wonder what could make them sad.

+ - !

Developer response from delosford

Turns out you can spend a lot of money and make people happy even if things aren't generally going great. Of course the problem is that it all unravels after a while, much like the Soviet Union.

Under rating threshold (show) And there was also nothing relevant on that screenshot. I'm not sure what your point is?

+ - !

(3)

Developer response from delosford

Oh, so you see nothing relevant, your buddy thinks it supports you, and everyone else sees it as damning evidence? Why yes, it looks like I did indeed ban correctly.

Under rating threshold (show) http://i.imgur.com/k9dJ9iY.png If you're talking about this one it doesn't show furoa doing any of the things you are talking about.

Developer response from delosford

There are in fact an infinite number of possible screenshots that do not show what I'm talking about. Which isn't really proof of anything much.

Under rating threshold (show) Also I never defended kiran in any way here. I love the guy to bits, but I don't even know what you guys are talking about in here. Just looks like text walls that I'm unwilling to read. So, I'm glad I proved you right?

Under rating threshold (show) Well I mean, ok I guess. Ya got me, I've spent 4 years building badges on an account just so that you'd never suspect that I hack a silly flash game. Darn. /sarcasm

+ - !

(4)

Developer response from delosford

Why would the age of your account matter at all? I never claimed you made it with the intent to mess with my game, and the game isn't even in flash.

Under rating threshold (show) What is this "Deep Throat case"? I actually never heard about before (and DELOSFORD actually clean me of suspicion, it's not a trick).

+ - !

Developer response from delosford

It's a game mechanic that reveals other things.

Under rating threshold (show) Absurdly large national debts seem to not reall faze anyone, but I don't really care aswell. Go America!

+ - !

(3)

Developer response from delosford

Seems all the newbies definitely altered the debt:gdp ratio quite a bit. It jumped from ~30trillion to ~50trillion in a day. You'll see people trying to correct that now.

Under rating threshold (show) Ok, just went on google, got the first screen recording software i could find, and recorded the game eating my messages. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F43alIFnoNc

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from delosford

The front-end could easily be modified on your computer to do that. People routinely spread information about how to do things like that around the game. Oh, and they're all your friends that I also banned. I posted the code. Anyone can read it. That trumps your video in a lot of ways.

Furoa

Nov. 25, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) What exactly about that screenshot proves your suspicions, then? You claim to be so good at debate but every time we ask for clarification or rebut one of your points all you do is dance around the issue, use ad hominems, or handwave the rebuttal away without addressing the issue at all.

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from delosford

No, I give you proof, you claim it isn't proof, everyone else accepts it as proof, and we all go on with our lives while you keep asking the same question over and over again in the comments as though the answer is somehow going to change. Again: common stalker tactic to try and make me look evasive when I'm actually just tired of answering the same fucking question over and over again while you pretend I never answered it.

Under rating threshold (show) delo "took care" of people working with stalkers? It's as if the game is becoming real.

+ - !

Developer response from delosford

something like that

kiraninja

Nov. 26, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) I didn't, i still try to post and nothing happens

+ - !

(4)

Developer response from delosford

I just showed you the code. That's not possible. Please point out the line on which it sets your message to a blank message. After noticing that there is no such line, you just might notice that the check for rejecting blank messages is on the very next line after your message is set to something non-blank. Which means your claim is logically impossible. Go away, stalker.

Under rating threshold (show) President Gote Focker has vetoed an Expand Anti-Discrimination Programs bill that was introduced by Kingsaa. its official. the president is racist. if theres one thing we can rely on obama on its to not be racist!

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from delosford

Considering the low chance of those bills even showing up, I'm surprised this ever happened. I think it happened with UFO funding too, didn't it?

Under rating threshold (show) These assassins are crazy, a car bomb blows up then on the way to the hospital the ambulance blows up. Later i'm apparently having a speech in my hospital bed and an assassin somehow misses the shot.

+ - !

(6)

Developer response from delosford

And everybody always wonders why they don't just give themselves massive salaries... well, I guess the round of new players needed to learn that somehow.

Under rating threshold (show) I'm interested in knowing whether 'Almost Flawless Past' affects the ability of people to uncover scandals on said person with that trait.

+ - !

(7)

Developer response from delosford

Yeah. The way it works is that an investigation has to be of at least a certain roll to even have a chance of finding a scandal. The value of that cutoff point is higher when you investigate people with nearly flawless past.

Under rating threshold (show) I looked in the store but I can't find xXxEXTENDERxXx TURBO EDITION anywhere. I saved up my $359,820,000 and I'm self-conscious about my little congressman. Wat do?

+ - !

(7)

Developer response from delosford

In recent news, congressperson Warhero was arrested on charges of corruption. Authorities are reportedly questioning how exactly he managed to get more than a quarter of a billion dollars spending only a scant few years in office. More details at 10.

Under rating threshold (show) This game is like herding cats while fighting over the controls of a plane in a downward midair spiral. This can only end in a glorious trainwreck.

An apropos description.

Under rating threshold (show) You are awesome for actually reacting to us...

+ - !

(7)

Developer response from delosford

Thanks for saying so! I'm not sure why other developers wouldn't... I certainly don't think I know what everyone wants off the top of my head, and player feedback just helps me make the game better.

Dec. 19, 2012

Under rating threshold (show) I really wanted to play the worst politician ever, so I find it a little annoying that I can't just pick every single negative trait. Is there a reason for that?

+ - !

(7)

Developer response from delosford

haha... The game would be near impossible if you picked that many negative traits. Your stats would be super low to start and you'd have a hard time doing anything or gaining any clout. I tried to make it so all character creation options give you a viable character. Please don't let that stop you from playing the worst politician ever, though! Remember: stats aren't everything :P

Under rating threshold (show) Goddammit stalkers, all I want to do is boink interns and steal from the people whom I've sworn to serve in peace.

+ - !

(16)

Developer response from delosford

The stalkers oddly don't seem to realize that getting everyone to hate them while trying to control them isn't really a sustainable plan.

kiraninja

Nov. 24, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) Am i missing something then? I haven't seen one person support the banning of furoa and it looked like the only evidence you had for dancraig being a stalker was his name.

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from delosford

Yes, you seem to be missing a lot. Huge swaths, really.

Tarrock

Oct. 07, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) Alternatively, it could have some effect on the state of the game after reset based on what win bill it was.

+ - !

(5)

Developer response from delosford

It certainly could. But it won't. Because incentivizing wiping the game seems like a really bad idea for a variety of reasons.

Under rating threshold (show) Well, you just said you had one that shows what you ARE talking about, care to direct me to it?

+ - !

(4)

Developer response from delosford

Why would I bother? Didn't you see it before and say it wasn't good enough? That's always the response from you folks. There's no player mutiny. Everyone knows what's going on and what happened. There's nothing actually left for me to answer.

wiifreak20

Oct. 16, 2014

Under rating threshold (show) to be honest, Delos, It's significantly more likely that the stalkers that have it out for Clout infiltrated your hosting company, and have been "tripping" over the cables that link your server to the world than our ISPs messing with traffic heading to/from your server and your server alone.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from delosford

Oh, yeah, I doubt it's your ISPs causing it. But they can look into it.

Under rating threshold (show) Thanks for answering to my message, i think that you responding to every comment creates a kind of bond with the players and you 5/5 :)

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from delosford

It definitely seems to be something people like about the game. Part of what's helped me improve Clout is all the comments/reports/etc from players over the years, so it seems like it's good for everyone when I interact with the players.

Under rating threshold (show) Game says: "You should read/watch teh tutorial before you start because the game is very complex" Yes the game is very complex! AND i can't find the tutorial :( How am I supposed to get into it?

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from delosford

The tutorial starts as soon as you create your character. Look in the log on your status screen. The one that had "HEY LISTEN" pop up over it when you created.

There was an issue with the internet connectivity to the game. Feel free to try it now.

So what are you doing when you create your character? What name are you putting in?
