Yes, I complain a lot. Yes I get offended easily. Ignore this post if you want to. Anyhow, someone gave Ulysses One, a 1, which means: Stay away, stay far, far away.

Now, I'm not going to badmouth someone simply because they hated, loathed and detested my story, but I'd at least like to know their actual opinions about it. Yes, this is a complaining rant, but I'd just like to say, if you hate something, at least leave a comment about the story to say why you think it's so bad. Or PM an author to tell them why you hate their story, if you don't want people seeing your comments. I just find it confusing that a featured game could be considered by someone to be 'as bad as it gets'. In the Help & Info section of this website, there are two articles about rating people's stories. Following those guidelines, even the stories I've played that I didn't like still qualified for 3's.

Anyway, that's my rant for today. I know a single 1 doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but hey. This complaint was brought to you by Pepsi Max - Maximum Taste, No Sugar.

of course it is. think about that episode of futurama with Slurm. its all about making money.

Coke Zero tastes like it has chalk in it to me.  Also, I've tried CokeBlack, and it tastes like Coke mixed with coffee. . .that's not really a good thing.

(oompa-loompa-doompa dimgredient. . .)

I haven't tried cherry zero yet.  Maybe that will be better.  At first I thought coke zero was okay, but then it had an aftertaste like calcium carbonate antacids. . .

I also dislike the fruity kind of antacids.  Mint works with chalky to me, but not sweet.

Does Pepsi have a zero flavor?

(And remember, leave comments on peoples stories please.)

Just live wire sucks. And mountain dew would probably be better as president than bush. Lol!  

Hahah my point exactly.

Except Limewire the downloading tool rocks.

Bah! Pepsi max and coke zero are THE WORST FRIGGING DRINKS IMAGINABLE! also, I too am paranoid that there are people waiting to see my games and give them a 1. Look at WWII GS! 6 people rated it a 1, and did not leave a comment. I agree with tsmpaul this is a serious problem. Some people (clamface and quadcam) go around rating games a 1 for the hell of it. he hasnt been on the site for a while though the ratings remain.

Of course, they could have rated it low for the bugs, which I fixed up last year. Unfortunately the rating remains. I wish someone would agree to my arguement for Versions.... see FWW.

Well guys, hate to disappoint you, but I only really drink two beverages: Swiss Jara (a choc-coffee drink), and Pepsi Max. Coke tastes a bit watery or something to me, but for me, I think Pepsi Max has a lot more flavouring to it. However, I will admit that I have travelled a lot, and in different countries, their coke and pepsi has a slightly different taste about it. Some taste watery, some taste syrupy.

Something about the water in different countries too, I think. I think recipes are also slightly different in different countries where they are made as well. I know that milk tastes different in America to here in Australia. Also, many american foods have corn 'something' (can't remember what it's called) added to them, which we don't do over here. However, I love American root beer! My brother often buys it from a place here that sells American food and drink. (I love Hershey's peanut butter cups as well)

Which brand of american root beer?

I'm a coffee drinker, myself. . .

I just read that "lemonade" is carbonated in the UK and elsewhere.   If that's lemonade, then what's the other kind of lemonade called?

Also, does ginger ale actually taste like ginger anywhere? 

You forgot redpop, madglee.  It's popular, too.  (And rock & rye, but only around here, I guess.)

Oh, oh, and whatever flavor Mountain Dew is supposed to be (don't give me that "lemon-lime" crap- Sprite is lemon/lime. . .oh, I'm sorry, "Lymon")

No, no, it's not really flat either- it wasn't carbonated to begin with.  It's more like lemon juice, but with a lot of sugar.  There's a drink called an Arnold Palmer that is half iced tea and half lemonade.  (The flat kind)

What about pink lemonade?

Also, they sell powdered lemonade that you mix with water. 

Oh, btw, "please leave comments on people's stories."  Relevant comments.
