Lol, damn. Someone messaged me at 12,000, which of course covered up my game and sent the poor boy to his death. Oh well, I got the medal, but I still think I could have went for another couple of 1,000 before I got hit.

I heard it was the toilet. Anyway, after a few months of not having time for medals... I still don't have much time for them. I'm STILL trying to get that damn Penguin Popper medal in Domo Kun! I don't know why I haven't been able to get it by now. I'll probably get DD before I get that stupid PP medal!

lolz "PP".

Cool, I made it to 15838 feet. It got repetitive, definitely, but it seemed like they had less birds past the 10k mark. It sped up, but it's definitely doable past that mark.

Yes, I'm lame and had already run out of puke by then.

Nice game. Got 6500 on my first try. I don't know why, but I always move slightly to the right when dodging birds... so I end up near the right side of the screen which of course gives me less time to dodge the birds, so I have to try to move left again... would be much easier if I just stayed left in the first place. -.-

How do the shift 4 medals still not work? You lazy mother fucking piece of shit admins need to get your priorities set and take care of that. There is absolutely no reason for such a long process. I don't give a fuck if you all had swine flu (which is virtually impossible considering theres a shit ton of you) or if your working 12 hours straight on this gay NG chat that nobody wants anyways.

You got other shit to do? Fine I understand leaving it for a couple days. BUT NOT 3 FUCKING WEEKS.

I will never get to level 6 because I don't want a black hand as my avatar. Is that racist?

Better idea: Tom removes the current medal system. Honestly, acting like that doesn't tilt the odds in your favor. The whole system should be scrapped if this is how you (or anyone else) is going to act just because you can't get a few medals in a game. Show some appreciation from time to time. The administrators have better things to do than mess around and fix up a medal game.

Even though the medal system is still in beta it's running smoothly (to an extent) on its own. No major bugs, nothing that is in dire need of fixing. PsychoGoldfish (.. or whoever) will fix whatever needs fixing when he can, in his own time. He isn't an internet entity that works around things for your convenience, he's a busy guy. Surely you can understand that.

If your inpatient read a book, play outside or try and achieve some new medals.

For the record, there are no new medals to get and I believe this not the definition of impatient. If you're supposed to receive a package in 3-5 days, and its been 3 weeks and it still hasn't arrived, what do you do? sit there and continue waiting without saying anything?This is beyond patience and you know it. Get off staff dick.

--> What staff member gave us all a solid, set date for which the fix on Shift would be approved? <--
--> Even the author has stated that they do not know. If it is indeed true they have uploaded the 'fixed' version. <--

No need for a war within this thread. Again. For like, the fifth fucking time.

Go outside, do your homework, there's gotta be something you can do, yes? :) Not having a medal game should not be the sole prerequisite for you flipping out. If so, um... try and rethink what plays a large role in providing happiness in your life. Or at least, your online life.

A game doesn't get updated, you flip out, rail against the staff, mods, even users here that try to clear the air and I find that scary. And please don't rant at me. I'm trying to mediate and explain the situation. So, we were not given a concrete date. That means? Wait. Nothing else to do.

You have nothing better to do than increase a meaningless statistic on a website? Accept that the staff are busy. Whining and raving like a 9-year old brat doesn't speed up a process. There are certain ways to say things without sounding spoilt and selfish. I've yet to hear someone say there is a limit to patience; 3 weeks is nothing.

Get off staff dick.

This isn't a case of me sticking up to the staff. I'm going to leave it here, this is nothing more than talking to a brick wall.

Well, i'll give credit where credit is do. You at least write a half decent post. However you lost me at the brick wall part, as thats exactly how I feel talking to you.

Perhaps you don't realize how simple a task it would be to fix this. The author has done his part, and as far as I know, (I'm no server administrator of any kind) all you would have to do is upload his revamped file to the NG server to allow the medals to start working. Regardless of how busy staff could be, it really doesn't take much time or effort for such a simple fix. Hopefully i'm not wrong in that assumption, and provided i'm not, I feel no sympathy for busy staff. Thats simple laziness. I could make another analogy like the late package above, but you didn't seem to get that one so I can't see why you would understand another.

And yes, maybe my post was a bit harsh, but sometimes its worth taking that 2 minute penalty (or in this case a 2 day ban if the mods decide to enforce it) to get your point across.

Well, patience obiviously has a limit, but come on, Shitf4 medals are not THAT important...there are other medals you can get, right?Yes, you're gonna shout at me because l have them, but hey, l swear that l would say the same things even if l didn't have the medals..since nobody can get them now it's still "fair" right?

There's nothing to get if your analogy has no factors that apply to the current situation. We were not given a delivery date- we never have in the past, I've been following this thread since day one. The system is in BETA.

BETA. I know that you comprehend the implications of that. I do like how you're ignoring all the other broken medals and games, and pick the one you've been playing almost every day to rant about.

You could put all this energy to positive, good use. But instead.. insulting staff and users, ignoring the big giant BETA flag... I'm sorry, but I honestly don't agree with the method you're trying here.

But I will not lie, I will not be a hypocrite. I do empathize slightly. I remember my little hissy fits I've had about Seed of Destruction, but I left it at that-- since I did what I could..
Politely messaging the author, talking to other users to gather intel about their experiences, and once I realized that nothing could be done on the user level, I left it in the hands of those working this system. And c'est tout finit.

You have no right to bitch or complain about anything whatsoever.

Go vent your nerd rage on your skinny cunt sticker while screaming at yourself in the mirror.

This thread isn't for bitching or complaining. Especially from free loaders.
