Worst mistake to be made in Cantr

Postby Racetyme » Fri Feb 23, 2007 4:43 am

So, with all my time off, I lost my caution. I just gave a very, very private speech to the community as a whole. Outdoors. That means everyone. By miss clicking one time, I probably just killed my one and only character, and possibly someone else, just because I couldn't hit the buttons. So, so much worse than any sex talk uttered publicly.

I figured someone would. I know who you are now as well, assuming we are speaking about the same location. I can't believe I did that. The message wasn't as bad as I first thought though, and I think I can play it off. I hope I can, anyway...

I lost a character that way once. Very frustrating and embarassing.

Discussing plans to overthrow the government?

I'm not going to say what was said. I'll spill it some day, if it turns out to be an interesting story.

Clicking the wrong button can be dangerous...One of my characters once decided to tell his friend what he really thought of the town leader, little did he realise that instead of whispering the comment to his friend he was actually whispering it to the leader himself. Fortunately the leader seemed to take the comment on board as constructive criticism. :?

It's even funnier when you think you are talking safely inside a building and then, when you hit the button and the page refreshes, you see the man has just entered while you were writting. :lol:

I usually cut the text after writing and refresh the page to check that no one has come in in the middle (if it's something private). But you migth lose some funny situations that way. Also if you are checking that the other person hasn't said something more that might make your reply seem vague.

Imaginary example: A person says "Hi, how are you?" And you're going to reply "Fine, thanks", but while you're typing they might add "Would it suit you that I killed the town leader?" And if you say it only then, it sounds like "I'm fine with that, thanks for offering".
