Dibblez

May 22, 2002 1:13 PM

Dibblez is a really cute and fun game. Yeah, it's not time for Friday Time-waste, probably, but I love when people create amusing stuff like this. If only someone would do a (better than scorch2000) networked version of Scorched Earth...

I must be missing something. To me, this just seems stupid, pointless, and confusing.

Seems cool, but people keep leaving before the games are over.

Aw, it's fun. I lost, but it was fun anyway. C'mon, I wanna play against a mefioso.

yeah, weird. Very worms-like. Metafilter Mike, you left before we could finish the game!

That was cathartic.

The chat thingy doesn't seem to work though.

It's like killing a bunch of Elmoes. What's not to like?

That was fun. It's most fun when both people don't know what's going on. What color am I?

I see someone logged in there as "freshfish." How rude, stealing most of my name.

that was cool.
if you're losing in terms of # of guys but you're at ~equal health, the tornado/whirlwind thing can usually pull a draw out of it.
also, volcano weapon is pretty hard to aim/too arbitrary.

I'm just lulling you into a false sense of security!

Same problem here - maybe we Mefite's are just too experienced at the smiting of others for them to stick around!

I've revised my opinion. Now I just find it stupid and pointless. A little fun, though.
