I dont think it does anymore, but you should play around in there anyway.

The easiest tactic is still complimenting someone while also avoiding posts that let the others compliment you easily. As for a counter-strategy in terms of posts that are made in a way to avoid getting complimented on: just think outside the box.

But I'll give you, that it's kinda hard to get yourself motivated to compliment someone. It's hard when I do it for the sake of complimenting someone, but it's even harder, when you realize that it's all just to get points. Well, maybe I get myself to one or two compliments at some point.

Does "you are not as terrible as I thought" count as an compliment? Not that I'd ever say that to someone, just curious... {XD}

You know what would be really ballsy? Going into the opposing DCC and compliment everyone on that team. I mean there's no rule that completely prohibits doing that. There's just a "please don't do" and those people who cheat delete posts of people not in the respective team. But for that purpose we still can make screenshots. :P

But it deliberately says in the title that you can't post in the opposing team's thread... they can't post in our thread, and we can't post in theirs or we end up getting punished (or at least that's what I got when I was being careless with loads of others and everyone was posting in each other's threads). You have to look for other threads to do it in if you want to avoid the nightmare that is the dreaded red card.

So you can't even compliment your rivals for all the good work they have done so far? Well, that's a bummer. Talk about friendly competition. -_-

I love all the blues, they're just great people

You can do it, just not within their own DCC or your post gets deleted and you get punished.

Well, I suppose you're right. It would be kinda unfair to them, considering that it's almost like spying on them, although we don't have that issue with those secret words anymore, so there's at least that.

I just prefer to figure out different strategies on how to be successfull over actually carrying them out to be successfull. It's one of the reasons why I'm not as active as I coud be, but whatever. :)

Sirfetch’d May 17th, 2015 12:47 PM

Derk will carry us through this round omg

You don't even need to quote them as long as you mention their name. ;)


Also: can we get an updated list of people in both teams? The ones in our start post are a) incomplete and b) still using the old usernames. :)

^This. I sent a VM to Oaka (Sonata) like a couple of days ago saying to him that the teams list for both needs to be updated, he hasn't replied back yet, or is probably just ignoring it (or me) idk.

Now the act of complimenting someone from the #blahblinds, and the thought of it just stirs up countless socially awkward situations... :/

Sonata May 17th, 2015 7:06 PM

Kill them with kindness <3

im going to hopefully update the lists tomorrow hopefully. im the worst. i know.

Oh wow that's the secret to succeeding... I need to work out who those inactive ones are now

Post #1 (1 person)

Well, there we go...

Hikamaru May 18th, 2015 6:46 AM

The issue I have is even finding out who's inactive in the first place.

Lycanthropy May 18th, 2015 7:17 AM

It's probably a lot of people didn't expect the "amicable happening" to be this Treehouse related. Some of the people that subscribed hardly even post here at all.

Sirfetch’d May 18th, 2015 4:46 PM

I see way too much blue here... work on that customized usertitle and make it red instead

Yukari May 19th, 2015 3:41 AM

I know I'm red on the inside because of all the blood flowing through my veins.
