High Roller Las Vegas Launch and Play Proposal

I propose to add on a third pre-launch play day. Hence, if you attend the launch party in Las Vegas, you can rent playtime on a station before the two-day head start perks. Eligibility based on registration & attendance, backer level, and hourly rental fee (for the station). As example, based on backer proportional statistics, Avatars can sign up for a computer gaming station for X hours (first in pecking order), while Royalty is apportioned Z hours for the fee during launch. Special guests and friends of Intrepid not withstanding. Hence, when we are flying back home – we have a reasonable head start compensation like the ‘Bravers’ and above who have a two-day head start from the general public. Moreover, the hourly fees defray the cost of Intrepid purchasing computer hardware, setting up stations, hotel space fees, and plugging into the AOC server(s). Make sense. Just a proposal. What do you think?

Might be cos I can't get to Vegas, but, you know.....
Personally, I am planning on using the head start to look around at the released game for a couple of days and then switching servers for the full release.
Nah, Steven doesn't regret offering head start, he got asked that in Discord a few months ago and replied with this.
Ok. Still, I wouldn't count on the head start servers being very populated as people starting on or near launch day probably won't want to start 2 days behind.
If I had more time, I would write a shorter post.
Since when did Death Incarnate have friends?
If you are paying a cent more than the base price of access to the servers, you are paying it because you want to pay it.
maybe friends was too strong a word, meat shields may be better
As usual, your posts are full of pure Win. Keep up the good work!
I don't think you'd understand.
The thing with ESRB ratings though, is that you can't get one until your product is in it's release state.
As to your video, all I can say is, wtf was that? All it is proving is that you do not understand the difference between the act of using a word, and how a word is used.
You say words like "bitch" are banned on these forums, but that is blatantly not true. That word is perfectly fine when applied to, say, my dog. It is not, however, ok to use when talking about another poster. Even if you know said poster well, it is not ok - as neither the mods nor other posters will be aware of that relationship context, and so see nothing other than the use of that word to describe another poster.
This isn't a case of the word being used causing a ban, but rather the way you are talking about another poster. The way language is being used is in the entire construct of the sentence, not in the fact that a single word is present.
Language is not just a selection of individual words, but rather the structure of form, context and meaning by which they are used.
That said, not understanding this would, perhaps, explain some of your posts.
Where did that come from?
Someone you otter know.
Your video was talking about how you think Intrepid needs to have better rules on the forums, and when someone attempted to engage you in discusison about that, you immediately switched to talking about whether a specific post was conductive to harmony and free thought. You immediately, at literally the first opportunity, jumped off of your own conversational topic of forum rules on to a nonsensical attempt at discussion that has no place or merit.
It is saying things like this that are why people think the things of you that they do (see Unknown's post above to understand). This literally makes no sense, and is just outright weird to bring in to the conversation.
No, those specific letters are not something I would ever type out in that specific order (as they are not all words, so I can't say those words are something I would not type out). I've been using this name in gaming since the late 90's.
As usual, I have no idea what you are talking about. I don't think you do, either.
Psychobabble is a term used to describe jargon used in psychology, it isn't a catch-all word to use to denote things you do not understand. You yourself said words have meaning, I think the issue is that you don't understand the meaning of the words you use - as is the case here.
I already explained context to you, which is the key part of what you seem to have taken issue with.
Leader of Men is, iirc, the first to get the invite.
To vegas? I was sure that was higher
They definitely do, but if they did, the forums would become a wasteland very fast and the banhammer wouldn't get much rest.

Can you imagine me getting the ban hammer the forums would shrink
Nah, you're a softie really. There's a big layer of fluff beneath that bony exterior...!
Nah, you're fine.
Can't banhammer a pile of bones anyway. They'll keep rising from the dead no matter how often or how hard you hammer them.
