Elemental team all twittered out

Elemental team all twittered out

Just curious did you guys abandon the Twitter idea?  Last twitted or twatted or whatever it's called on Sept 19th.

perhaps somehow assign somebody who  is usually in there to post big news from  #elemental on twitter?    I'm not sure how else you could do it  really.

No, you'd just put "#elemental" in the tweet somewhere if its about Elemental. People can then search for that, effectively. That's how things like the Iran Election and Windows 7 chat happen.

BoogieBac must have been abducted by that Twitter bird with the giant flaming sword.  Hopefully it flies back with him sometime!

I don't get this twitter thing.  Who cares?

I second this opinion.

Even something as simple as "looking at code x", "fixing the UI", "home sick", or "asking Brad for a raise" would be nice.  It doesn't have to be anything too big or earth shattering, but it's nice to know you're alive, Scott!

Why? When he has news just put in in the forums. Besides the twitter thing is a bit stupid and boring as hell to read.

'I'm picking my noise'

'My butt itches and I need to scratch it'

'Watching paint dry on my wall and writting this stupid tweet'

 

I rest my case.

For those of us who aren't twits, or whatever it is called, could you post them here, also?  Thanks.

Twits I think is the correct term.

I just want to point out a couple things.

1. There is an edit button.

2. You can put more than one idea in a post.

3. How does one pick their noise? Do they choose between saying "boing!" and "ka-boom!" every time they tweet or something?

4. Have you actually read the Elemetal twitter updates? They are nothing like your "examples."

5. If you don't like twitter, don't use it. I know, that's a hard concept to grasp, but I think you can do it:P

1. well that is good

2. really but most don't in the Twists I've seen on my friends tweeter. But that is good to know

3. Well they just type, "I'm picking my nose." Now are they just typing with one hand while doing the deed. Thhis I cannot tell you.

4. I have not read the Elemental Twitter updates so you got me there. But I have read many Tweets in the past and they were simialer to what I wrote.

5. I don't use twitter do to it'a mind numbing content that people usally post on it. So I have already taken your advice as hard as it was.

6. As long as we don't have to Twit to get updates I have no problem with it.

Tweet us the color of your sox! This could inspire a wave of board slave creativity!

For me the point is simple.  Stardock is working on stuff that is far ahead of what we see in Beta/Alpha.  It would be nice to get updates on the overall development so we know there is a light at the end of this tunnel.  Plus it would be good to hear something other than "it's not fun".  I'm ready for "Wow wait till you guys get your hands on this".

Agreed.  It seems the Twittering has, well, twittered out (like the post says), which is sad.  It was fun while it lasted, though!

And I spoke too soon.  There have finally been some recent posts, although not from our dear friend BoogieBac.  I think he's still lost in characature-land, drawing up princesses and such.
