The Peeps Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) The Keyboard Mafia Warning! Keyboard not detected… Press any key to continue. The programmer stared in disbelief at the message. What kind of trick was this? Did Steve set up this little ruse? How could he possibly continue… there is no ‘any’ key! And thus the keys of the board were thrown into limbo. The station could not be turned off but the program would not continue without input. Everyone was being held at the mercy of the elusive Any key. Players: DuD Sheikah Yvonne Diageo Mr-Paul Esequiel Magnus Peterson Cube Aqui1a Jonnas ReZourceman Jon Dedede Rummy EEVILMURRAY Dannyboy-the-Dane Raining Again Who wants to play then? I'll probably start this on Saturday night or sooner. Rules: No typewriters, no touchpads. Day phases are loosely 48hrs, ending earlier or later depending on activity Night phases are 24hrs whenever I'm able to adhere to it No communication in any way with players in the game outside of the game thread (except for mafia) No communication from dead players, aside from the traditional 'oh noes' post - nothing game related. Classic mafia tactics are permitted Standard rules apply Edited August 17, 2013 by The Peeps
Yvonne Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I'm gonna put the mafia in a num lock from which they cannot esc.
Mr-Paul Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I want to be C sharp. You are talking about a musical keyboard, right?
Magnus Peterson Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Musical or computational? Doesn't really matter. I'm in.
Jonnas Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Give me the ~ the ^ or the ç I can actually make them!
Jonnas Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Anyone can make the ^ and the ~. Really? The English language doesn't even use those. I thought they'd be exclusive to Portuguese/Brazillian keyboards (considering Spanish keyboards don't have that key, either)
Diageo Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Well we need it to make funny faces, like ^_^ and ~_~ Also ^ is used to denote indices. Like 5^10 (5 to the power of 10). I don't even know what this ¬ key is but I would never be able to express resentment without it. ¬¬ Oh and Google used to use the tilda (~) sign before a word as a search function for related words.
Yvonne Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 yeah those are used in programming, so that's probably why they're included by default
Diageo Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Really? The English language doesn't even use those. I thought they'd be exclusive to Portuguese/Brazillian keyboards (considering Spanish keyboards don't have that key, either) How can Spanish keyboards not have them. They need it the most.
ReZourceman Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Well I don't want to get left out. Sign me up! I am so down with this, yeah that's right!
Jonnas Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I don't even know what this ¬ key is but I would never be able to express resentment without it. ¬¬ I don't think I have that one It's probably what the Ç is replacing, then. How can Spanish keyboards not have them. They need it the most. They have the Ñ key, since they use the tilde for that letter alone.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 I'm like to be a fusion of Alt+F4 and kill people. Failing that, caps lock so I pimp people up.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 SINCE I WAS KILLED IN THE OTHER GAME, SIGN ME UP FOR THIS. I CALL CAPS LOCK, BY THE WAY.
