Suppose one of the potatoes only triggers if you're also holding another potato?

I also like the idea of giving potatos to lurkers.

Is it better to keep the potatos moving or not?

No i reckon it's best if we keep talking for as long as possible, so Porochaz's potato blows up in his face.

Did you ever think I might be holding onto the potato for now? Also what about post counts?

I think the only way to work out how these things work is to experiment by acting out whatever crazy idea comes into our heads.

Try juggling the potato, Porochaz.

Or, even better, throw it to me, by deflecting it off Armlx's head.

Potato Tracking Count #1: Nothing has changed.

Porochaz is in possession of a Russet Potato
Crazy is in possession of a Sweet Potato
JohnWWells is in possession of a Baked Yellow Potato

Also, everyone, please don't try to throw potatos you don't have.

This game is just so random...

I have absolutely no idea what to say or do right now.

Wow.

Did we really need all of the pointless posts?

Potatoes asplosions... I was thinking that they would happen mostly along the lines of something like after X posts or X tosses, personally.

'Course, we can only guess until we get actual pink mist. I get the feeling that this is going to be a very unusual game...

Also, Battle Mage, you talk

way

too much...

What are we going to do other than pointless posts until people start throwing potatoes around. We can try an guess how things work, but we aren't going to have a clue until there's an explosion - and even then, we'll only know how that type of potato functions.

I so don't need a prod.

Throw Sweet Potato at Battle Mage

for the love of all goodness.

Through sheer willpower...?

If there's a way to find out what triggers the explosion, this is our way to kill scum. One potato must have a time-related trigger, so by just not tossing them around, we could see which... unless there's a potato that explodes if not being tossed around for X posts.

Hey BM- pass it to me! I'm free and I've got an open shot to goal!

I think we should try and do this like a normal game; vote, and then pass the person with the most votes (or the top three suspects) all the potatos over and over 'till they blow up.

On that note

Fake vote: Wizardcat

for being against everything I stand for.

So what do you propose, that we stand still and hope that the potatoes don't go off at all?

There's a difference between making pointless posts talking about your favorite ways to eat potatoes (Ick.) and at least trying to play the game.

Eww. I joined this 'cause I thought it wouldn't be normal. At least it makes sense.

Also, everything you stand for? What do you mean, Pikachu?

Protip: I think the baked potato is rigged to explode. Or it's so high it doesn't care. Either one.

After X posts is a fun idea. I doubt it, but if that is the case, it's very clever by the Mods.

You think I talk too much? You clearly havent met Armlx.

that is, if the potatoes work the same way every day. It's possible that they get mixed up at night?

Also, i rofl'd at Wizardcat. Nothing in particular. Just generally.

I'm gonna risk keeping the potato for now. Until i think of something good to do with it. Other than eat it.
