Website to anonymously organize lobbies for dead games. Could be a useful tool for /vm/ threads

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFBCNnOhYgs
>>
Bump
This is fucking cool, got that old internet feel. Hopefully it lasts and doesn't get pozzed.
>>
>>2256531
Forgot to post website link (despite being a bit obvious): https://gamedate.org/

>>2256551
Same, as far as I know the developer is a /v/ anon that just wants to play video games, so I'm hopeful.
>>
this does look cool
I enjoy the UI, it's like the internet is useful again
I'll keep an eye on this site

what does hit me up on tg mean

>>2257689
tg probably means telegram

So is the thing already infested with groomers trying to get you to join them on their social media platforms.
>>
>>2257750
how are you supposed to do that when there are no usernames
>>
>>2257751
There's plenty of good games happening without social media cancer but yeah about every third post the game description is just a discord invite
>>
>>2256531
What's going on I can't post comments that have more then 1 word.
>>
>>2257780
he's apparently planning to make some additions so that fags won't have needing to get the server address and guides as an excuse to lure you into their groomer discords
>>
Did the site not have https before?
>>
>>2256531
How does this work exactly? Who determines what a dead game is and how do we add each other?
>>
>>2258502
There's no council to determine that. They probably pull from some database of game names and you can select whatever game you want. Schedules can be private (viewable only if you have the links). It's basically just a neat utility cause it's usable while anon.
>how do we un-anon each other
Never ask me that question again. I'm sensitive about it.

Any anons using this or is this more of a reddit/discord thing?
>>
>>2261434
Judging by the language used, it's definitely anons
>>
>>2261434
It was advertised to /v/ "first," although seemingly just in conjunction with wherever else the dev wanted to reach out. Overall there's a pretty wide mix as a result, but definitely a sizeable number of anons. Doesn't really matter anyways. If you host a session you can have it be as 4chan-oriented as you want

>censors faggot and nigger because hecking bad words
Kill yourself faggot. Your shitty site sucks. As if i wanted to play with non-imageboard users in the first place. Newfags like you will never understand the sense of belonging to a community. If you did you would have never made this site in the first place.
>>2261750
It was advertised to Reddit first.

You can turn off the filters, retard-kun...

>the sense of belonging to a community
Everyone else understands it perfectly fine. It's why everyone keeps using it and having fun together, while outsiders like you cope and seethe to try to bring it all down.
>>
>>2262792
It is pretty funny how someone on an anonymous board is mad about an anonymous lobby hosting scheduler. You just know he avatarfags in his threads cause that's probably the only value he sees in an imageboard.
>>
>>2262775
>>2262792
butthurt
>>
>>2262894
Why did you give ME a YOU? Was I right about you being an avatarfag? I've been practicing looking into a person's soul through their 4chan posts, so this is a big breakthrough.
>>
>>2262770
The word filter was only introduced to quiet the crying redditors and you can turn it off you queefing fag
>>
>>2262149
I think gamedate could benefit from having a wiki section dedicated for explaining how to install and host games, especially for ones without server browsers
>>
>>2262149
Who made you king pedophile of nigger mountain
>>
>>2263608
IMO that's up to the individual game communities, and outside of the scope of the site
storing pertinent information doesn't really fit the design of the site either
the sessions are deleted shortly after expiring, not unlike 4chan threads
this is presumably to limit necessary resources and make the service economical to operate
running a wiki would be contrary to that, in addition to requiring much more moderation

in general I get the sense that the site is tightly focused on what it wants to do, without burdening itself with unnecessary cruft
I find that admirable

>>2266543
Some of the shitpost session listings had some of them in there, still trying to get anything out of their weird one-sided rivalry. At this point they should just take the hint: if all of 4chan going down didn't get any anons to obsess over them, nothing will.

If anything, the only thing learned from having them constantly try to bother people is that, if every computer blew up tomorrow at the hands of a single individual, the average anon wouldn't even be bothered to learn that person's name. They'd be more concerned with just getting the right mailing list so they can return to writing racial slurs while slackjawed at their desk as soon as possible, like an unflappable pile of mush.

Post something dismissive on trannies in another listing, see if it summons him.
>>
>>2266775
>a server with a specific vision and willing to gatekeep
This seems good though. As long as they're not raiding and vandalizing other self-segregating groups, isn't this the system working as intended?
If you love anarchist-trannoids, you have a place to go. If you don't, then you have a place to send them.

>>2268958
what if the OP is the schizo in >>2268780?
would be funny desu
>>
>>2268961
lel
There's a fair chance, knowing how those people tend to behave. Especially for political shit, it's always the most radicalized who self-select to be an organizer.
It doesn't refute my point as I made it, though.
Gatekept servers with specific goals and subcultures are good. Much better mixing everyone in together.
>>
>>2268981
>much better *THAN
fuck
>>
is reporting the schizo even doing anything?
>>
>>2269004
No idea. I don't report schizos.
>>
>>2268961
It probably is, but less in the sense that they're an actual troon schizo and more that it's from the same schizos that have been shitposting on the site, and in the absence of an actual lolcow, they'll just pretend to be one in order to react to it like it's real.
>>
>>2269128
this this this omg
it's CHUDDIES slandering trans Folk, as usual
>>
>>2269153
That's the weird bit: it's not even you people trying to offend or slander or build a sentiment/bulwark against troons, you're just doing pure social masturbation. It'd actually make sense if you were actually against trannies, but instead it's this strange and other obsessive ritual that has no basis at this point.
>>
uh oh, stinky

god I love thinking about axe wounds instead of actually playing vidya

>>2269229
kek. this is all you have going for in your life? is your hugbox not entertaining enough?
>>
>>2269328
it's true: it's not enough having a hugbox here on 4chan to hide away from the trannies
i need to seek out troons and obsess over them every living moment I can, rather than actually play video games
>>
>>2269377
still mad? go back man lol
>>
>>2268958
this
it's them making a new space for themselves, away from normal folk
this is exactly what everyone said they wanted
what's happening in this thread is old school unprovoked 4chan bullying, except it comes off as just pathetic
>>
>>2269744
It's never fun when it's your team that gets hit, right?
>>
>>2269750
lol
like I said, I think them making their own space is the best scenario
but I'm not on their team and I wouldn't touch that server in my life
I just appreciate it operating out of sight

and this is a separate manner, but modern 4chan has this weird tendency of pretending like other anons are particular people
it's like you don't understand the idea of an anonymous board and that basing your argument on an assumed identity is equivalent to an ad hominem and therefore reflects unfavourably on the speaker's intelligence
but fear not, I have no stake in this and will not spend further energy correcting you
go forth and be as foolish as you like
>>
>>2268780
mod removed it finally, but you can access it with the link and comment lol.
>>
My style of hosting is more of an "in the moment" kind of deal and I feel this is for those things you need about a week to organize for getting even a couple people to join.

In my opinion the more time you give people to prepare, the more time they have to excuse themselves at the last minute.

Dev probably knows that going SEKRIT CLUB at the very start of the site's life is dumb on top of exclusively shilling it on /v/ could fill it instantly with shartards undesirables, through the textboard intro thread confirms me that the Dev knows whats wrong with most gaming communities lately
>>
>>2276057
Hosting discussion there was also pretty much a non-factor, as being able to discuss on the site isn't really part of its purview, and it didn't really host the kinds of thing that the current discussion system is good for.

As it stands, the only concern is that it opened the door to non-anons, but I personally don't see that as much of an issue. With the admin focused on self-moderation and not banning anons, no amount of redditors or what have you will stop you from being able to host and play on the site. If you do host, then randos do well to round out the numbers and populate the session, and if they can't play along and act like whiny redditors, then give them the boot.

The only way it would be an "issue" is just if someone was too socially anxious to take control of the situation, whether to host or to give the boot while the host, and pussies get what they get

Isn't that for the best? At least you can join/dismiss based on preferences. Loud and proud is pretty much the MO of lgbtq+ on the internet anyway, so this site is another avenue for them to showcase themselves.

>>
>>2279708
Threadly reminder that "Queer" is one of those motte-and-bailey words.
The first meaning is just the inclusive "gay" - any non-straight sexual orientation.
The second meaning is "Queer" in the philosophical sense, which is the ideological opposition to all norms and structures simply because they are norms or structures.

Normies don't know about the second meaning, so political radicals will dance between both and play dumb when you notice. Queerness(philosophical) is genuinely evil and committed to vandalizing and unmaking anything and everything without limit.
>>

how queer

Only two people showed up for my session, which I had expected 13 people to attend. I think it's easy to exploit the attendance function to waste someone's time.

>>2282728
It's always been an issue with hostfagging. It's why you generally have to pick games that are highly scalable up and down, and have something to occupy your time with while waiting. Whenever I host something, I usually have some book I'm reading or a smaller game I wanna play on the side.

many such cases. Sad!

Most of the examples listed are people posting their 'cord links/social media anyways, which defeats the entire purpose of the site being its own entity. Take that shit elsewhere.
>>
>>2283276
>Most of the examples listed are people posting their 'cord links/social media anyways
Not even sure what you mean by that.

If you mean the examples posted here
>>2283172
then actually not. The only one that even lists a discord is Atlyss and it explicitly has lobby deets if you don't want to use discord, so it's not really all that much of an issue anyways.

If you mean the lobbies already hosted on the site as a whole, honestly it's actually worse than that, lol. "MOST" aren't posting any deets at all, 'cord or lobby or otherwise. They'll just say "play game" or "we'll figure it out" or maybe a shallow inkling of how you'll connect. People really don't know how to host at all.

But all of this is also just secondary to the fact that you can host yourself, lol. Be the change you wanna see.

I can recommend the saturday killing floor session
my main issues with the game were the retarded leveling grind and the fact that 99% of online servers were animu infested turret shit with homer simpson patriarch and garbage music blasting that cannot be turned off without muting the entire game.
having to deal with neither of these is fucking great. their server is running some roguelike effects per wave, which is cool but I hope to play some normal 10 wave stuff.

Ah cool, I remember ones like those being hosted in the /v/ threads for this. Will keep an eye out.
