I'm going to assume it should be broken and that this will trigger the next event that may lead to us being able to decode more of the diary.

i am so depressed right now that this is STILL being discussed... what is the issue with taking a risk and actually playing the game?

inaction on the part of the players is not a form of decision-making. i don't want to speculate about tangents and read new posts that just retread what we've already done. the only potential risk of smashing it is that milwaukee collapses in on itself and the game moves forward from there - which is better than nothing. we did nothing for two months and in hindsight it's very obvious how well that worked out.

the PMs obviously have no plans for what happens if we simply do nothing and wait for the story to progress.

forgive me if i sound like a dick. this could always be chalked up to bad game design on the part of the PMs but from my point of view i just don't understand why this community is being so indecisive.

Break it,its a win win situation

srsly
nothing new except for random "bad stuff" has happened since taking it a part a little. And since you've put it back together again nothing has happened but some random "bad stuff keeps happening"

To steal from Dan Savage a little: BTMFA (break the mother f------ already)
What is the worst that could happen? More/different game path?

Man, such an indecisive community.

All I can say at this point is; Relia, I would not want to be you right now. >_>;

god
even his twitter about the band with the TIMM song on Myspace said "This is what the Champion Dynasty Fund Gets You" ... which was the only thing for weeks... then taking it apart a little gets a bunch more.

I would have broken the crap out of it a long time ago, but that's just me. I can't handle all this "precious"

majority rules!

I'm not liking being me, either. At any rate, I'd like us to decide the fate of the Fund before Saturday morning -- this is when I'll be smashing it, if we decide that. (I work during the day, and am not about to be outside with a sledgehammer after dark. Also, I need to charge the battery for my camera.)

My concern here is that a lot of you are taking Chuck's message as reverse psychology/sarcasm -- but then, how would he have possibly communicated it if he really HADN'T wanted us to smash the turkey? So I'm still trying to revisit his history of tweets for true enlightenment.

I have no problem (other than incredible, enduring sadness) with smashing the Fund so long as it advances the game, because I do love the shit out of TIMM, but I do feel it is important to record this earthshattering event for your enjoyment (also I already picked out a song to play on the video).

I think that smashing the bird is a mistake. I get this from the tweet that says '... I hope nothing else breaks.' I think that assuming this tweet is sarcasm is unwarranted. That, plus the obvious references to all the bad luck items makes me think that breaking this isn't the way to go.

I think if it was to be broken the message would be clear.

I also don't agree that"majority rules" has been decided as a way to proceed. Even if that were the case, I suspect there are a lot of players that haven't even read this thread or voted.

[jebreject]

Just don't break the base. We can buy a new turkey.

Bad stuff happening = stuff happening. Otherwise it's nothing happening at all.

Haha, i'm getting more and more entertained by the idea of breaking this thing even if we're not supposed to do it. We're bound to get some sort of great reaction from Chuck either way.
