...oops… (27 comments) I only just now remembered to decide whether people are cultists. If you joined

I only just now remembered to decide whether people are cultists. If you joined or unidled after the doomsday cult proposal passed, please say so here and I’ll decide whether or not you’re a cultist.

I have no clue what the doomsday proposal is, when it was passed, or what a cultist is.  And Wakukee is gonna get mad at me for babbling.

That doesn’t tell me what a cultist does, but it sounds fun! :)

Also, to clarify things, the doomsday cult proposal passed on August 31 at 18:10:24 UTC.

Fun!  But what is a cultist? And what is the Doomsday cult?

Klisz:

The Doomsday Cult is a cult that caused the zombie apocalypse, and is one of the three “factions” of the game, along with the survivors and the infected. Cultists are members of the Doomsday Cult. No-one knows who the members are, not even the members themselves…

Being a cultist has no effect… yet.

No-one has unidled within the last 48 hours, so this is moot. No-one else is becoming a cultist…

Cool!  Unfortunately, the apocolyps hasn’t happened yet.  The apocolyps is the end of everything.  That means there would be no survivors, no rubble, no nothin.  But It would be fun to cause the apocolyps.

I tried to unidle, because I’m clearly not idle, but no one has bothered and I don’t care that much, even though it sounds cool to cause the end of the world.

The apocalypse has already happened - In this sense, it refers to the end of civilization,. This is post-apcalyptic. Also, the word “apocalypse” is not spelt “apocalyps”.

You say tomato I say tomato.  I will attempt to correct my spelling of apocalypse.

Thank you.

No problem. PLease un-idle me though.  I would like a chance at causing the apocalypse.

Klisz:

...the apocalypse already happened.

Darth, I strangely feel like editing that link away.  For a good reason.

Klisz:

Rodlen, If you do that I will make a proposal to ban you. For a good reason.

LOL, I laughed so hard ^_^

A Rickroll with enough Javascript to force a novice user into killing their browser? Nice move, Darth.

You might find it funny to annoy a new player, but don’t forget that we sometimes have innocent lurkers reading, who’d probably expect the Emperor to bother explaining the game.

I joined after the Cultist Proposal.

Kevan: It was more of payback at Darknight, who sent me to the same rickroll. Come on, DK, come on…

I will now make a genuine explain-the-game document.

Also, you all just lost The Game!

It is the fundamental nature of games that when someone loses, they are no longer playing. Therefore, I am free, because I have won before. Q.E.D.

Klisz:

08-09-2009 17:08:13 UTC

I mean I’ve lost. I haven’t won.

It was annoying and I had to shut off the computer

Klisz:

09-09-2009 00:00:54 UTC

...what was annoying? The Game? The rickroll?

(Hint: Use CTRL+ALT+DEL next time you get rickrolled.)

Quoth the Fearless Leader: “No-one knows who the members are, not even the members themselves…”

Bzzt, thank you for playing.  I quote from the rule set:

Whenever the Leader determines that a Survivor is a Cultist, the Leader ***SHALL*** alert the Cultist via PM but shall not alert that Cultist of the identity of any other Cultist.

So if the Cult exists, then each Cult member should know that he is in the Cult, no?

Klisz:

09-09-2009 18:33:08 UTC

Well yes, but I was referring to the “but shall not alert that Cultist of the identity of any other Cultist” part - so the members don’t know who the other members are.
