Indeed. You’re the one making these projections, Dayzee.

Hey if you have any sort of issue with it then just ignore it. I'm enjoying this because I like making lists. I see no harm in it. If it insults you that much don't look at it.
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Just, saying, it just seems that you’re simply riling yourself up with your own writings and saying it’s part of the original plot.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
I wasn't getting myself riled up. I was just pointing it out in order to sort of add it to the plot. You know, like Hagus adds things and then reacts to them?
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Dayzee, that was kinda one of the reasons we asked you to tone down on the death descriptions in the first place. If you're getting disturbed by your own description, you only have yourself to blame. Don't get snippy with D-Rock and Hagus. They're responding to your characterization of Tarot's death as particularly "brutal and violent"
On that note, I would like to make it clear that if the extra descriptions of character deaths are bothering anyone, we do invite that feedback and we can ask that the descriptions be toned down or stopped. If it's taking the fun out of it, it doesn't need to be here. And if it's cool, then let it continue

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
I wasn't getting snippy when I posted that. I was simply trying to explain. Hagus has some actions that happen in-game and then he responds to them. I am asking why I can't also do the same thing? If it is because I over-exaggerated her death then, I get it and I will no longer emphasis that.
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
To be fair, I respond to the events in this because I’m the one who runs this thing. I don’t mind you posting the deaths in a list, it actually makes it easier to keep track of the deaths. I just think you should tone down the brutality of some of the deaths. If it isn’t explicitly stated in the death, it is up to people’s imaginations on how a character got eliminated. It’s perfectly ok to voice your own imagination of how it went down as long as it isn’t too brutal. And like Obbl said, if anyone has an issue with a specific death, please feel free to speak up! I actually will be removing the suicide deaths for next season because it’s a lame way to go out and too dark for what I’m trying to go for here.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Alright then. I will tone them down significantly as much as I can. The movie and the game in it itself was incredibly violent so it might be a bit difficult but I will work on it. My issue was that people saying that I was snippy when I wasn't snippy. You can't tell my tone over the internet. Though if I wanted to be snippy, I could.
Then I would immediately remove the post because I felt guilt about it.

No doubt about that and its not so good. Also, it doesn't help that I tend to take a lot of stuff as an attack when its not because I'm really sensitive. >_<
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Folks do rib each other from time to time on this forum, but there's not a lot of vitriol eruptions. Sometimes, what's meant to be kidding does get a little sharp; we live in cantankerous times. If you're not sure, take a pass.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
These two haven't interacted throughout this entire season. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a rift in their relationship
Sabrina and Jess. Both strong, smart, and untrusting. They're both probably afraid the other is gonna attack them in their sleep!
Peanut: I'm seeing double...
Aran: I get that a lot
Cat Joey: Who are you?
Aran: Aran.
Cat Joey: Aran Ryan?
Aran: No, Long Lost Cousin Aran.
Cat Joey: Cousin to who?
Aran: I-ok its a long story.
Yelstin will be fine, he's strong

I’d be questioning my sanity if I had Duchess as a girlfriend as well. Poor Marion & Bailey.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
I would be hoping it is not enough because Fox is usually the one that deals the blows and if he were to learn that it is because of them that Bino isn't realizing that he doesn't have to put up with Duchess it probably will be just another thing to feel guilty about for him.
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Let's kick off day 6 by checking in on the three brothers that we all know and love!
Reminds me of that scene from Castaway
....ok so there's only 2 brothers now but thats ok!
GUYS THE BERRIES ARE OUT FOR BLOOD
That is quite the alliance. Duchess seems kinda misplaced, she doesn't contribute anything to the group but I guess she convinced them somehow!

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
I feel like Hagus jinxed Bino by saying that knowing that one of the brothers would end up getting killed off and further satisfying his sadistic streak.
Anyway, that's another death.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
That would make an interesting story, I’ve always thought that the ferrets as, eccentric as they are were generally harmless, and their projects for Babylon Gardens seemed to have the interests of the pets at heart. Duchess on the other paw, her with power is a frightening concept. I’d have it resolved by Gale (either hired by the Miltons or doing it on her own) investigating Duchess’s family and finding malfeasance, and threatening to expose it unless Duchess backs down.
One idea of the alliance with Duchess could be the idea of keeping your friends close and your enemies closer. The others can keep their eyes on Duchess easier if they are together.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
I like the idea of involving Gale (maybe Terrance and the K9 investigators, too). And, since its Duchess, Bino and his bunch (Boris, Rex, Yeltsin, Griswold) with a feral or two as well.trekkie wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 6:54 am That would make an interesting story, I’ve always thought that the ferrets as, eccentric as they are were generally harmless, and their projects for Babylon Gardens seemed to have the interests of the pets at heart.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Pretty typical happenings for the games.
Aaaaaaand there goes Max! Not much to say about this one, I think Cory really wants the win
Marvin is preparing but I'm not sure how much good that will do against Cory's sword.
If I were Deevee I would run too
Now if that isn't the deadliest alliance we've seen yet I'm not sure what is!
Keene and Breel still separated, they don't seem to be working together very well
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Pretty slow goings here, though yeah, Cory seems to be quite offensive-minded.

Someone out there is simping for Sabrina, lol.
That was bloody, horrifying and made Cory all the more terrifying.
What if he's not going after Cory, tho?
Yikes.
Well, I won't be sleeping very well tonight.
Husband/Wife (or in this case, Marten and Ferret) teams never work out.

Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Cory's a versatile lad, ain't he?
Re: Housepets! Hunger Games
Man, all original cast members. How sad
One member left in each of the first three districts! Which will last the longest?
I wouldn't have guessed Marvin would be the last man standing, but here we are! The wolves are doing decent as well!
I SWEAR Joey and that cat are related. Somehow. Maybe I'm losing my mind. Am I crazy?
District 11 is DOMINATING right now! Aran has 3 kills, and Keene and Breel are both alive! They got a good chance at winning!
