Comments for Clout: The Game

Yeah, that's new. I don't see him either now. The stalkers seem to be modifying the code in minor ways now. I'll fix it before long.

I really don't think you understand the meaning of the word "harass". You also got caught in a chatlog trying to hack the game in damaging ways and did various other things in violation of the rules. What did you expect?

You don't have access to The Lobby. So you can't play The Lobby, shockingly enough.

I haven't really implemented rewards for winning one. It's kind of the assumption that the US will generally win, which means you should go to war mostly for the purpose of changing the government of the target country to one more friendly to us. It'll also generally improve their nation stats and relations with us such that trade will occur (which indirectly improves the nation).

Why would I need to gain sympathy or trust? You seem really confused. Probably because you've been banned for a while and don't actually realize that nobody who still plays ever gave a shit about your banning... and they certainly don't now. Do you think there's some kind of raging mutiny going on? Because I'm pretty sure everyone who's not banned already forgot about it.

Dude, you're just rambling at this point. Are you hoping people forget your complete lack of credibility?

You get money for campaign contributions when your bill actually goes into effect, not when you pass it. Bills go into effect at the end of each day. The reason why this also pays out contributions is due to the possibility of a veto. If your bill gets vetoed, you'll have to pass it again before you get the money.

It probably helps that the community stays active and I'm developing a tie-in game that's nearly released.

Wars aren't exactly hard to stop

CT2 gives more options for energy use with less stress generation. Though, remember there's always interns and hookers if you're just trying to stay away from drugs!

Because they already tried to kill me with the same sort of stuff and it didn't work. I seem to actually have pretty much become tolerant to it and have found other things that counteract it. So now I'm tracking down those responsible.

I stopped updating those a while ago.

It just might start showing up in assassinations in rare instances....

You pointedly said what you were doing was going to get you banned because you saw me write the rule in the first place for everyone to see. But nice attempt to lie.

I think it sort of is a religion already? But like... with one follower. So maybe you're like, a splinter faction of timecube.

Glad I could help.

Well, I guess subjugating people and forcing them to pretend to agree with you is kind of like people liking you...

Seems like people are finally turning it around.

The function for ability strength loss is nonlinear, but the general idea is correct.

oh noes

Thanks for the feedback and support!

You can't see how far above 100 two of the stats are.

lol... I was already aware. I really should do more from the napoleonic era.

...until you get investigated, scandalized and lose the next election. Hence why you'll need to get into managing your constituent support with public appearance offers, coverups, advertising, and other things. You're shielded from having to take care of a lot of the more complex aspects of the game until CT2, which can be achieved in a couple days in order to give you time to get a hang on the simple stuff. Feel free to read the extensive help files if you'd like to learn more about the more complex aspects of the game.

I don't

They're definitely annoying. Looks like they're mostly jealous that the game runs maintenance-free, when the shitty-ass cobbled-together systems they run require constant attention to keep running in a reasonable state.

heh

Groovy. Now I know who to ban.

no

This is what happens when you give everyone 200k/wk.

Thanks for saying so!

The server has never crashed even once in the entire 5-year history of the game. Please read the announcements.

why would increasing frequency of slander make it a bigger story?

j'ai beaucoup des ananas sous mon chapeau

This is correct.

Framing you for what? I posted the code. Anyone can read it. Unless you're legitimately trying to claim that the message I put in the code would be seen by anyone as real after it became evident that all your chats were just producing that?

heh

So how'd you know what I wrote into the code?

Indeed

Facebook kind of throws a bit of a wrench in that plan... not to mention the fact that they way Kongregate's server and my server communicate doesn't actually ensure that events are processed and displayed in the order which they occur in-game.

Seems most everyone else can, what with all the votes he has. Maybe you need to get the right fonts for the game to display properly.

I definitely don't get it

Apparently so

This isn't a bad idea, but the question is what is "too" big? It's kind of arbitrary.

Right, because there's no possible way a court or other cops would spot discrepancies in that.

Well, it does seem the stalkers have upped things to actually modifying the code in subtle ways, so maybe they did something (they added a % sign to a value a couple days ago). I should really get on that thing for the hosting company so this'll stop.

That is certainly a screenshot of the Clout interface. Has nobody told you that people routinely post fake things in this game? Why not set your profile to public so you can prove who you really are.
