It'll be "I suspect so-and-so because earlier they said this and then contradicted it, but you'll have to go look if you're interested." This is, for serious, the best way to play ROMS. (Honestly, I actually started having fun last game - when I stopped worrying about posting in depth analysis and started just posting whatever came into my head and not worrying too much about justifying myself.) I agree. It's so much more fun to say that 'I recall you doing this, then you did that. I double checked it, but I'm not going to have an aneurysm linking every post you ever made, and people need to do their own research, rather than take me at my word.'

Oh alright, I'll throw my hat in Hey, quit littering the forums with your headgear! (Yay, Firebolt! What convinced you? Was it the Justin Timberlake cover, or the making fun of you for going running in the snow?) So at present I make it: DementedDuck Taelac Leif Jolyma Yasmi BunnyLaRoo Phoenix Setsusa Marinated Luvessy cala firebolt153 Replacements/will play if needed: Riss Vantastic I know 2patch signed up on the YPP forums, but I'd like to see him post here and check he has no problems before adding him to the list officially. That's... 12. 13 with 2patch, 15 with Riss and Van playing. The game ideally wants 20+ players to function, so we'll see how it goes in the coming week. Encourage (or bribe, threaten, whatever) your friends to play, I guess.

And it was a little of both, though I figured a little good game karma wasn't bad if I helped you get to the numbers you guys needed :-p

As long as it's sufficiently clear who they're trying to vote for, the vote counts. That ain't gonna work, sorry.

There isn't actually a dead thread yet.
I'm not going to try to bribe or threaten anybody, but there won't be a game to observe if we don't get enough people, so... *shrugs*

Creepy, but way better than bacon (post bacon pics and you will destroy any chance of me playing).

Honestly, I'd prefer bacon to... that. I like bacon.
(I'm not even sure what that's supposed to be an answer to?)

I enjoy a bagel that's toasted with cream cheese and bacon on it

This thread is rapidly becoming Bacon Addicts: Anonymous.
You gotta stop it, guys, you'll frighten the vegetarians.

You gotta stop it, guys, you'll frighten the vegetarians. Pfft, they'll be okay. It's only bacon. Though turkey bacon is also a good option.

Vegetarians won't eat turkey bacon either, a Pollotarian or Pollo-pescetarian probably would though.
There is vegetarian bacon, which is one of the few pre-made meat alternatives that I actually like.
PS. the smell of bacon (and some other meats) cooking/cooked, makes me nauseous.

Personally, when given the choice, I'll eat turkey bacon over pork bacon (ducks to avoid projectiles). And vegetarian bacon...is that made with soy or something similar?

Seastar, Crazy, because I care so much about you and your vegetarian sensibilities, you want to be nice to me and play, right?

Post by Crazy Mg on Jan 27, 2013 14:28:53 GMT -8
yeah soy. Says the one that started Bacon Addicts Anonymous with her "I like bacon". We'll see. If you get to 18, I will.

I'm a vegetarian sympathiser, too; I just ate a falafel wrap, and it was delicious. We're not actually trying to get people who don't really want to play to agree to do it just to make up the numbers. Just... if you've got any friends who've played before, or who you think might enjoy playing, point them in this direction. Don't force yourself to play if you don't want to or you know you won't really have the time. If you're on the fence, on the other hand, please do allow yourself to be swayed by the idea of helping us out.

You said there won't be a game if you don't get enough. It all makes sense.
Bacon is amazing in grilled cheese. Turkey bacon and any not real bacon sucks. Even the Canadian bacon sucks and I'm Canadian.

Canadian bacon is basically ham, not bacon, so it's comparing apples to oranges. Turkey bacon is different and also meh.
True bacon aficionados may say thick-cut bacon is the only way to go, but I will stay a heathen and keep my thin, crispy bacon, thank you very much.

How many players are you up to guys?
Crispy is best. Nothing worse than soggy hotel breakfast bacon!
I'll eat turkey bacon when I'm trying to be healthy, and honestly don't mind it, til I have some real bacon and realize what a knockoff turkey bacon is.
My very tolerant pescetarian boyfriend will allow me to cook almost anything in the house, and indeed grills steaks and things for me, but does NOT like the smell of bacon, so I only get to have it when he's away.

Or 15 with Riss. Edit: I'll try PMing 2patch later and telling him to come over here and sign up. Maybe I'll drop PMs to people like Goats and Rack, see if they want to play. Or if anyone else has any other suggestions for people to try? Ideally a number in the low 20s would be best. I'm not sure if that's overly optimistic; it certainly seems it at this point.

I made bacon brittle over the weekend. It's not the best looking thing ever (maybe black sesame seeds was a poor choice of add in) but it's fairly tasty.

Sesame seeds make everything better. I'd ask for the recipe but I don't need to eat it
