Back when I frequented these boards, we took pride in being an accepting place to minorities, people with different backgrounds, and those with different sexual preferences. Now it seems we have created a forum called "Richard's White Games." The minority community must truly be offended by this gross error in racism and general unkindness towards our brother who may have been born with a different color skin, but who still deserve the same respect as we give to the Caucasian peoples. -------------------- You know, Scorp, there's a good reason you're not a moderator any more.

You are a bit mistaken. "White" clearly it is an appeal to those who are albino or extremely pale, rather than to those of us who are Caucasian as we are closer to "Pink" or "Creamy" than "White". -------------------- Take the Personality Test!

To make matters even worse, this Richard guy is obviously dead. Why would a dead guy make white games? White games are difficult to play, even after fiddling with the contrast on the screen. Maybe there is something different on the Mac, but us Microsoft slaves prefer our blue games, with the pretty hex code describing how badly we failed at multitasking. *this whole thread sponsored by the joke store* -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Please adhere to the definite differences between a white game and a White game. That said, Richard is not dead. He just has an 50% probability of being dead at any given instant. -------------------- -ben4808 Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

Actually, you're missing the subtleties of Richard's White supremacy (or is that Richard White's supremacy?): his games are actually white papers, except their games. —Alorael, who deduced this from trying to think of what else could produce as much aggravation and suffering and difficulty as the games pertinent to RWG. The answer was immediately apparent: the government! The conspiracy is even more vast than was previously thought! Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

Is Richard caucausian (sorry if I misspelled the name) really dead? Or is he UNdead? If he is dead, i hope he is dead, and not an undead. (God, I really HATE undead. they give me the creepes. And when you stand on their remains after slaugtering them, you hear this unnerving sound of bones that crack. *shiver*). -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

I think instead of "white" we should say "color-challenged". -------------------- Take the Personality Test! Deep down, you wish you were a stick figure. Posts: 1629 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00 |

You know, Richard Minority Games makes sense in some ways - they likely are among the minority of the games sold by Spidweb. How about a compromise: Richard Minority Supremacy? Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

Aren't the colors bytes, 0-255? 256 is not byte territory. I was thinking of photo enlarger colors, only confusedly. Firstly, I don't think the notation applies that way, although it might. Secondly, an enlarger has white at R0G0B0. —Alorael, who will note that further research revealed that R100G100B100 is "gigawhite of doom" according to the settings of Orbital Death Platform #77F6.

I imagine R100G100B100 would be a greyish colour. Perhaps Alorael meant to imply that Richard White is in fact Richard Grey? ... actually, that would explain an awful lot. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Yeah, but may we'd better switch RW's color depth to 16-bit, in which our white is R65535 G65535 B65535. ;) -------------------- -ben4808 Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |
