Trilby? Anyone who watched Nathan Barley nearly 10 years ago would have seen that one coming.

To be fair, he burned it down with a constant succession of d-bag moves culminating in that straw on the camelâs back.

âThis is the story of the most expensive, most highly-produced game jam in the history of the video game industry, and how it was dismantled by a single man.â
Why does the man get credit? The man set the stage, but the woman tore it all down by (awesomely) refusing to play along.

Credit to PepsiCo for a long history of keeping the advertising bar low enough for this cretin to crawl under (fall over?).

A trilby is just a closet fedora.

Vapes crit desiderata video comment makes a bit of sense; come for friendly compo, giant booboo space grotes invade, something that would be a firewall tell with that is optimized early.
She couldâve expected a creep-free zone (judges over 8yo, should mostly know how it works being a pretty gender,) if perhaps it werenât (Pepsi? Did absolutely nobody see Tiger+Bunny?) a reality TV show with lighter attached direct-video workup and launch partner commitments. Nothing off about the âsexist jibeâ which is really a come-on begging Oscar Wilde rejoinders (unless he really was offering to nudge the judging by throwing demerits for contestant comeliness; does the substitution test fail for âbeautiful b2g?â)
Oh. I see the IndieStatik page and âTwo of the other teams have women on them. Do you think theyâre at a disadvantage?â following up removing personal style to show off Pepsi cans just so. Ha. Yes thatâs a bit closer to refusing to be horseshoed for a 1-week gig.

If you read the article by Jared Rosen you will understand that the developers werenât told that it would be a reality show until after they go there. And Adriel didnât sign the contract the production company wanted them to sign.
So no, they werenât reality show contestants in the usual sense. Which is probably why they didnât put up with the shenanigans that ensued.

I concur. Hats are awesome generally. No way we should concede hats to assholes.

Hereâs a great recap by Zoe Quinn, in which she proposes that the next game jam be recorded on her terms - low budget, real, raw, no commercial potential. Iâd enjoy watching that show.

He looks like it never sunk in that the bad guys in movies are not the ones you root for, or dress like.

Yeah, what kind of disgusting freak wants to reliably taper off smoking actual cigarettes to reduce their chances of dying horribly of lung cancer while also being less offensive to those around them and wait a minute.
I gotta say, I thought I was inured to everything in the Random Internet Hate lotto, but this one takes the cake. Do you people just, like, have some kind of centralized randomizer that you all subscribe to? Is it only open to people with 10,000+ Tumblr likes?

Oh my. Lifeâs just no fun without some sort of tribalistic signifier to help you more easily shun the out-group, is it?

And the developers lost the opportunity to ask him back this very question.

I Google is a weird combination of words by itself, I might add.
Just you wait for
I, Google.
Glad, but also surprised. I´d have assumed provoking the participants for cheap drama is what the production company paid him for.
Good on the developers for standing up for their colleagues. I hope most of us would do the same thing.
I donât see what the deal is with the hat though? Iâm sensing itâs some kind of thinly veiled attack on his character based on his fashion choices, so is this sort of thing encouraged on Boingboing now? Wasnât his blatantly sexist behaviour a big enough target for scorn already without throwing ad hominem into the mix?
