TACODON Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I legitimately feel bad for the Historian. The guy is more or less on their side and has alway seemed to be fair enough in how he treats people. These trolls aren't biting the hand feeding them, they are mauling the person. I keep being amazed at how terrible that group is getting and they just keep shocking me with more escalation. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree- if anything I've appreciated how impartial he's been in the face of those psychopaths. Sometimes I get the better of myself, but I really respect the job he's tried to do. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+frankodragon Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 The whole fiasco with Atari suing others is like a short, angry man yelling at artists and musicians. Tacos Monday. Who says you have to have tacos only on Tuesday? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you mean by "fake," because it was posted in the official Atari VCS Facebook and had a few dozen reaction GIFs after it from hungry followers. Then they deleted it. It was not a fake post, but maybe it was a false announcement of an announcement. Someone at "Atari" must have sent the social media minion a message about teasing not being nice.

Inky Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) So how many announcements of announcements for the Naturally Ass System does this make? Edited September 17, 2019 by Inky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many to count. It's easier to count the annoucements themselves: just two counting the one they're finally not going to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Historian Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 The Gameboard-1 is like a flat computer with a square display, 16 inches-by-16 inches. It is thin, light, and portable, and you can expand it by connecting it to other Gameboard-1s. You can also connect a private screen, like your smartphone, to it so you can play a game like poker, where you want to hide the cards from other players. It’s a novel idea that comes from an unlikely pair of founders, Shail Mehta and Rob Wyatt, who created The Last Gameboard company in January. https://venturebeat.com/2019/09/12/gameboard-1-will-be-a-digital-slate-for-your-tabletop-board-games/ 1 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
