The Holey Grill

Proposed revision:

Contrary to what you might expect from looking at the grill, the smoke from the foggers don't come out of the holes on the top of the grill.

Arguments for:

  • This makes the fact more specific rather than a simple naration of what happens in the scene.

Arguments against:

  • The fact remains that the vents can be and apparently have been closed, demonstrated by the fact that no fog emanates from them.
  • It's unlikely that The Cheat would want those holes open while he's sleeping. Otherwise moonlight, rain, insects, etc could get inside the grill and disturb him.

Additional comments:

  • I don't think the first line of the revision is necessary. Remove it, and you've got the version above. It is therefore my opinion that those voting to accept this revision should move their votes up top so that it can be folded back into the original. The original might still have a chance with the support of those below.

I Got First Game

The Adventures of Lolo and The Adventures of Bayou Billy are both 1-player games, so Moses Malone and The Cheat couldn't play them together.

From: bedtime story
Posted on: 04:06, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Arguments for:

Arguments against:

  • Looking closely, both The Cheat and Moses aren't operating the controls at the same time.
  • In addition, Moses Malone's questions make it sound like he hasn't been playing the games that The Cheat has.
  • Both of them made the comment "I got first game," implying 1-player games.

Additional comments:

  • I often hold the idle second controller even when I'm not playing, out of habit.
  • If I remember right, at least with Bayou Billy, either controller would work, so essentially two players could play the one character.

Sorry, No Refunds

Although Moses Malone advises The Cheat to save the receipts for these two games, most stores do not accept returns on new, opened software. The Cheat could only return the game if he had purchased it used.

From: bedtime story
Posted on: 04:06, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Arguments for:

Arguments against:

  • The policies for today's software were not in place when these games were new. It was practically impossible back then to play the game without the actual cartridge, so anti-piracy measures wouldn't have been in place.
  • Malone is just talking trash to The Cheat; he's not giving actual advice.
