But did he lose any cans in this transaction?  He's creating currency here.  This can't be good for the economy of this place.

Is tiny can stagflation right around the corner?

GASP!

[smick]

This canflation is eroding the middle can class, and ensuring that more and more of us will come from "circumstances".

This is, of course, except wombat, who is the new King Canchacho.

[jough]

Easy come, easy go.

[Drygioni]

Is Jough the only one who can increase can amounts at will? Because I've seen his cans go up by hundreds all of a sudden.

[AlohaDawg]

Yep.

[theinevitable]

I love what you noticing that implies-- that you consistently monitor people's can counts. and remember them from day to day.

although, I guess going up by 100 at once is pretty noticeable.

I thought that with over 29,000 cans, I would finally be Cured.  That the number would put me outside the whole can economy. That I could rest on my laurels. I would no longer think about it.  I was so relieved.

Right. It turns out that I can perfectly well tell the difference between the numbers 29,112 and 29,113. And 29,114.  And 29,115...

[lprkn]

"Cured" should be a new torture method, where one is forced to listen to massive amounts of The Cure.

*Edited to fix grammar.

[jough]

I don't actually raise mine or anyone else's can amounts, I just change what happens when someone adds or removes cans from them.

There was a user here (yeah, I'm looking at you, jerkoff) who would remove at least 8-10 cans PER DAY from me and a couple of other people.  This means that they came back to the board once an hour and removed cans from the people they didn't like.  This is what their life has come to.

Anyway, in three minutes I wrote a script that looked at who was deleting or adding cans from whom, and then when this individual removed one of mine or someone else's cans the script would add some arbitrary number (I think it adds 20 to Paul, 17 to me, 4 to wombat, etc.).

I may reverse that array some day so everyone gets different amounts.

Anyway, cans are pretty arbitrary, but it's still a WTF moment when you see some piece of shit cocksucking faggot take away cans from someone for seemingly no good reason.

I don't care, because I can always just give myself a billion cans and be done with it.  But think of wombat, people.  She needs those cans.

Wow, those are some serious issues.  And was this person a cannibal?  Because, really, that would explain a lot.

Wasn't me and I still haven't eaten Sarah yet.
