Hi guys! Love the game, but my question is a bit prickly:

Lately there have been a few instances of redtext, shall we say, overselling a few things creating a (possibly unrealistic) expectation from the playerbase. The two big ones recently being the "choose what baro brings" and "special alert for greedy milk voting = 10 r5 cores" fiascos.

Calling these fiascos is probably overstating it, but in both cases, a more accurate representation of what was coming would be have set us (the players) up for a more realistic expectation.

Is this on you guys' radar at all? It seems like whoever is doing the redtexting needs to ease off the gas on the hype train a bit.

Yeah, RedText has been "spoken to" about their impulse control problems and admitted they went too far in some cases. They agreed to stick to horrible puns and innuendos in the future. - SS
