What? Is that sprite legit? I dont remember MISSINGNO ever looking normal.

It sometimes uses one of the Pewter Museum skeleton sprites or the Lavender Tower ghost sprite, depending on your character's name.

The famous glitch block form people usually think of happens if your name has an H in the third spot (and Ash was a name a lot of people picked).

Missigno can appear as a number of Pokemon. Or as the sprite of those fossilised Poke's.

 

[Cess007]

They almost just used Dig...

It would be hilarious to be able to use dig inside an elevator xD

Edit: Democracy time!

CHROME USERS:

Go to Extension shop or whatever and type in Twitch Plays Pokemon. The chat anti-command script is in there so you don't have to keep putting it in.

I've been using this and it works flawlessly, but it needs to be updated with the anarchy and democracy commands.

 

[Grizzo]

B4.

Oh Helix, please let us reach Giovanni soon D:

Thanks! And obviously it's the last choice when we manage to bring up the control panel... this is gonna take some time.

 

[Kid Ska]

It's kind of unbelievable how little Anarchy gets done.

 

[Mr. RHC]

Democracy will bring order into this chaos now..harharharhar

 

[Paper Sparrow]

Dat democracy push.

 

[Rapstah]

What? Is that sprite legit? I dont remember MISSINGNO ever looking normal.

All MISSINGNO.s are legitimate entries in the internal Pokémon table. The fossil sprites all come from such entries. They put the sprites on MISSINGNO.s so they could tell the game "show the sprite of Pokémon #189".

 

[highoffcoffee496]

democracy is back

(guys we really actually need it for this part)

 

[Cyan]

It might help if you put the kotaku/knowyourmeme article and the google doc in links in the op.

Sure, anyone got the links?

 

[Drencrom]

Oh come on, where's the fun in democracy mode?

 

[everyday math]

Sure, anyone got the links?

Document page!

Basically has everything already in there.

Edit: Oh thank god for Democracy.

 

[Professor Lich]

Even though it moves away from the original intent, I actually kind of like the demo system. In a perfect world, it would be more organized.

 

[Azuran]

This is stupid. Do people seriously not have any patience? Simple tasks becoming torturous was the charm of this.

 

[papercamm]

Sure, anyone got the links?

google Doc

 

[Dion Blaster]

Now this is drama. Can democracy get us to the 4th floor before anarchy kicks in again?

 

[Phire Phox]

democracy is damn slow lol

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Yeah I think a better course of action might have been for Democracy to be another input instead of one side of a slider. Have 40% of the chat say democracy? Put it into democratic mode. Falls below the threshold? Goes back to before.

That being said introducing two more possible, separately weighted inputs has been a great input sink that helps cut down on the chaos.

 

[Mit-]

See everyone in a couple days when this game is beat.

 

[Insaniac]

Oh come on, where's the fun in democracy mode?

I get to see some actual progression?

edit: it'd be interesting to see how efficient twitch could be in anarchy mode if there was no delay

 

[Trey]

Even though it moves away from the original intent, I actually kind of like the demo system. In a perfect world, it would be more organized.

A perfect world would be anarchy with much less latency.

 

[everyday math]

This is stupid. Do people seriously not have any patience? Simple tasks becoming torturous was the charm of this.

Non of this is charming.

 

[A-V-B]

I wonder why it takes multiple turns to change directions? Is that the lag in effect?

 

[Mr. RHC]

Now this is drama. Can democracy get us to the 4th floor before anarchy kicks in again?

It will be damn close, I can feel it..

 

[ThatStupidLion]

so much LEFT!

edit: SO MUCH UP

 

[TFORTOM]

Sure, anyone got the links?

Kotaku Link

 

[Phire Phox]

Where are they? Team Rocket Hideout?

 

[GeeDuhb]

Yes, it is true the original system got it this far, so anarchy "worked," but you have to remember that all this progress was far before the stream got so popular. With so many people entering commands (upwards of 100k,) the anarchy is just pure chaos.

So I for one think the change was warranted...

 

[RionaaM]

Democracy again? Damn!

 

[Cess007]

Even though it moves away from the original intent, I actually kind of like the demo system. In a perfect world, it would be more organized.

In a perfect world we will use only democracy for the really hard-navigation parts. Everything else should be anarchy

 

[A-V-B]

Wow, what the hell? Is it slow mode?

 

[okayfrog]

This is stupid. Do people seriously not have any patience? Simple tasks becoming torturous was the charm of this.

No patience whatsoever. ADD Generation, yo. They want things done before they lose interest. Sad.

In a perfect world we will use only democracy for the really hard-navigation parts. Everything else should be anarchy

In a perfect world, a "anarchy" stream and a democracy stream would have been started at the same time.

 

[Sora2k7]

Sure, anyone got the links?

[ZSaberLink]

I'd consider the elevator a hard part, so I think it's fine to use democracy =).

 

[HK-47]

Knowyourmeme link

 

[Mashing]

I just want to see anarchy for battles, demoracy would be stupid for those

 

[whitehawk]

Guys, enter "adowndowna"

 

[Grizzo]

I think the delay is gonna make us miss "B4F" and hit the "CANCEL" button

Edit: Yeah that's what I thought... we just moved to the first floor because of that

 

[Cess007]

I'd consider the elevator a hard part, so I think it's fine to use democracy =).

Oh no, believe me. That i agree. I just wanna battle Giovanni on Anarchy mode

 

[Ambient80]

I've been using this and it works flawlessly, but it needs to be updated with the anarchy and democracy commands.

Mine filters those out. Maybe do a manual update? I'm only seeing people talking, no A/D stuff, or other commands.

 

[Kouriozan]

Even in democracy mode it's going to be a pain it seems.

 

[kahboomkin]

Even democracy cannot defeat the elevator!

 

[Whools]

Democracy is constructed by the evil Dome God, designed to hinder the true spirit of red. All actions taken under it's influence are illegitimate.
But seriously. There will never be another event like this again. Even if this concept continues to draw large numbers, which I doubt, this is forging a new path for online games. Why would we want to A. make it end quicker and more importantly B. Remove the compelling nature and the challenge from it. Anarchy is not only the best system. It's the necessary one.

 

[diablos991]

Is democracy broken???

 

[Professor Lich]

In a perfect world we will use only democracy for the really hard-navigation parts. Everything else should be anarchy

I guess "in a perfect world," was a bad phrase to use. I agree with what you said however.

I think Demo would be better if it was quicker. Maybe the first to 20 votes or something.

 

[Bedameister]

oh come on democracy. Democracy can't get shit done

 

[A-V-B]

Oh no, believe me. That i agree. I just wanna battle Giovanni on Anarchy mode

If this system works properly, it'll be democracy when everyone knows what needs to happen and just has to execute it. Anarchy for more open experimentation when people are creating new solutions, like during boss battles.

 

[everyday math]

oh come on democracy. Democracy can't get shit done

Got us out of the maze.

 

[Azuran]

I'd consider the elevator a hard part, so I think it's fine to use democracy =).

We manage to succesfully use a PC multiple times. Using the elevator shouldn't be considered hard. It might take a short time, but it would have been done eventually.
