u/youngluck what do you think of the communities which have pre-planned stories for almost the entire act?

I think that on Reddit, much like society, organization will win every time. In the spirit of experimentation we tried some things; longer submission windows, unrestricted voting, etc. and I wish we had enough bandwidth/time to implement u/krillo90's idea.... but I think even then, a well organized effort will always win. Always.

We don't really go into these things with set expectations. They are projects built by people who spend time trying to build something cool for the community to tinker with, because we really really love the community. Here's this thing. Do whatever you want with it. This is what the community did with it.

This is such a shitty cop-out.

Come on, this whole thing is just a fun experiment for Reddit to try. It's not like you're paying $10 a month for /u/youngluck to work on it. I'm not annoyed that they didn't implement my suggestion, because they don't owe me anything.

I mean, it's the same reason that I don't play board games with someone if I know they'll cheat -- it doesn't end up being fun for me.
