Your direct link to your game doesn't seem to go anywhere in particular. I can see the game ID in the URL, but that doesn't seem to mean anything to the flash navigator. posted by Malor at 12:41 PM on August 26, 2008
Odd, seems to work for me in multiple browsers, and the "number of times played" on the game seems to be shooting up (wooohooo, now all I need to do is monetize the suckiness!), so some people are playing.
Incidentally, I also started a helicopter game where you have to fight against the giant heads of cortex and mathowie, but it was actually worse than MeFi Plate of Beans. Feel free to take the idea and run with it, though. posted by blahblahblah at 12:45 PM on August 26, 2008
Yeah, it works for me, too. posted by sveskemus at 12:46 PM on August 26, 2008
Ah, I figured it out, it was NoScript. Sorry! posted by Malor at 12:47 PM on August 26, 2008
I was playing, and I liked its suckiness. posted by preparat at 12:50 PM on August 26, 2008
The Plate of Beans game is annoyingly addictive. posted by ardgedee at 12:51 PM on August 26, 2008
Heh. I'll have to play with this later when I'm not totally at work. Maybe I can recreate the Timeout Playroom. posted by cortex at 1:03 PM on August 26, 2008
I have never been more comprehensively terrible at a game than I am at MeFi: Plate of Beans. Seriously, it's tragic. posted by hifiparasol at 1:07 PM on August 26, 2008 [1 favorite has favorites]
I totally fail at Mefi Plates of Beans. *sigh* posted by jokeefe at 1:07 PM on August 26, 2008
Shoot the spinning heads of Mathowie and cortex before they shoot you. Destroy the MeFi spheres for bonus points. Watch out, cortex spins amazingly quickly, though the head of mathowie is notoriously inaccurate.
Moderator Battle 3000 is cool. I like how shots will occasionally bounce off my rotors if directed from above. posted by Durn Bronzefist at 1:32 PM on August 26, 2008
MODERATOR BATTLE 3000!!!!
Shoot the spinning heads of Mathowie and cortex
WHERE'S JESSATRON?
Dude, the cortex head chips zapped the crap out of me within 2 seconds of starting. Just blam. No remorse. The mathowie head chips couldn't hit me for anything. I swear the mathowie head chip shot me and it just bounced off, and then the cortex head zapped me. No fun without the Jessatron though. posted by cashman at 1:34 PM on August 26, 2008
Who do you think is flying the chopper?

I was playing Plate of Beans, and I was the suckiness. posted by Elmore at 1:41 PM on August 26, 2008
I really do like how plate of beans only has 2 levels. Indeed just pull back and let it rip. posted by cashman at 1:55 PM on August 26, 2008
Nice shoutout to the MeFi steam group. Count me among the terrible at PoB. posted by absalom at 3:08 PM on August 26, 2008
Hey, don't blame me! posted by P.o.B. at 4:02 PM on August 26, 2008
No other contributions? When a FPP mentions something like limericks, everyone participates. But choose something really geeky, like games, and I am the only one who makes something.
Sorry, I'm working on my blog about the X-Files. posted by cortex at 7:59 PM on August 26, 2008
Amazing AI on MB3K, I go after Mathowie, and cortex takes me out from behind.
It's just like MeTa. posted by Alvy Ampersand at 11:10 PM on August 26, 2008
I love the music on PoB. I want that playing behind me as I walk down the street and wave to my neighbors. posted by slogger at 3:00 PM on August 27, 2008
Nice how you can edit the game after you lose to make it easier to win. I am teh winnah! posted by notashroom at 9:33 AM on August 29, 2008
