BS meter

Post by PsychoSniper »

Can we have a 'BS meter' for any press that Bethesda does for FO3 ?

Basicly, they do any more vague chicken shit comments, the meter shows it (it'll prolly just stay in the red) and we have at the top of the .cx homepage a breif quote from their latest round of BS, and a quote of someone calling it BS>

I propose the Press Release Condition Rating...

PRCON 1 would be 'Not a damn thing to write, even the trolls are idling'
PRCON 2 would be 'NMA is trundling out some vauge eurobullshit port/mod, rest of world yawns'
PRCON 3 would be 'DaC does an IRC interview...'
PRCON 4 would be 'DaC does an IRC interview... and the developers actually say something.'
PRCON 5 is when the shit hits the fan and there's an actual PR release.

Nothing like a slow-moving localized apocalypse to really make you think about proper data backup procedures.

you googled "bullshit meter", took the first result and then copied the descriptions from here onto the images using mspaint?

brilliant :umbrella:
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

I used paint to cleant it up, then used photoshop for the text.

Easier that way cause I have a template amd redo as nessacary.

Im thinking, keep the basic procon levels, but redo the descreption occasionly depending on the news article.

No, it would violate DaC's neutrality policy.
