Isn't this just gonna make the mod more famous?

Yup, awesome, eh?
I checked it out. It's no more than a map with npc_citizens. It's not even a mod. Just a custom map.
[QUOTE=Kinglah Crab;28646116]pawnstick (maker of checkerboarded) sends his regards
or he probably would if he was online right now
god damn school shooter is getting so much publicity

just pawnstick and probably some other people in ccof[/QUOTE]
Big props to Pawnstick, I honestly didn't think he'd make it this far
Hey, Jack Thompson is back! I missed the little rapscallion.

except it's nowhere near complete.
Who cares about Columbine? That was like forever ago. If I was going to make a troll game, I'd make one where you play a tsunami and have to destroy Japan called [I]Pearl Payback 2011 [/I]. And it would be a real game, too. You'd get XP for killing people and destroying stuff, and use it to make your tsunami bigger and enable you to destroy nuclear power plants and give tons of people cancer.
I was bored a while ago and had looked at Thompson's Wikipedia page, believing he was out of our hair forever.
I was wrong.

That sounds like a horrible idea for a game. Moreover, it's a nature killing simulator! It'll teach kids that they can use divine powers to kill millions!
I would love to see how this ends this time

You can't compete without some kind of RPG progression these days. Super Columbine RPG was ahead of it's time.
I climbed on top of my school roof because I saw a pole that looked like another pole in the old splinter cell games. It was awesome.

Just another humiliating defeat for Jack Thompson, nothing unusual

FINALLY GET TO USE THIS![/QUOTE]
Woah nostalgia.
No I'm not an old man. Our computer lab teacher in grade school used to play this song.
This looks cool, I wanna try it. Link please?
[QUOTE=Jack Thompson]Speaking for myself alone (for now), you have until five o'clock pm Eastern standard time this Friday, March 18, 2011, to shut down this public safety hazard I predicted years ago this school massacre game would arrive. [b]I hate being right all the time.[/b][/QUOTE]
Wow what a pretentious little shit.
I knew school shooter north american tour 2012 would reach the news sometime. ( I think the creator made a thread once on facepunch but it got locked )
[url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/school-shooter-north-american-tour-2012[/url]
The creator is probably having tears of joy right now, giving an interview to the escapist is like one of the most easy gains of mass controversy ever, since the quality of the mod isn't even that good.
[QUOTE=Psychokitten;28647307]Proving that Jack Thpbtson dosn't believe what he says.
He's just another troll.
:v:[/QUOTE]
I would believe that too if I hadn't seen the way he treats gamers who email him to have an intelligent discussion.
He's just a jackass who was given undeserved legal power. He's a condescending douche who can't admit that his claims have zero basis to them.
Hell, mere hours after the Virginia Tech shooting he was on the news, spouting how the kid was an avid player of games like Counter Strike (which turned out to be bullshit with zero evidence to back it up).
Who's the guy who spoke for the mod on The Escapist?
I want to congratulate him for being such an awesome troll.
hahahahaha
oh my god
if this isn't fake then lol

I think a "Jack Thompson Please Shut The Fuck Up" mod would be great. And if he doesn't, beat him with a crowbar till he does.
I'm glad my state disbarred him. Best decision we've ever made.

I don't want to be playing a game and have that tell me to shut the fuck up every 30 seconds.

Shut the fuck up.

Yeah I can see that getting repetitive and boring.
But hey, people still play Call of Duty and it still has similar gameplay ideologies.
[QUOTE]Thompson claimed that copies of the letter were also sent to Checkerboarded Studios, FHE-ASAP [the Florida Higher Education Alliance for Substance Abuse Prevention], the United States Secretary of Education and [b]"significant others."[/b][/QUOTE]How many boyfriends does this guy have !?!?!
[QUOTE=smurfy;28645891]Think of the aliens! ;_;[/QUOTE]
My poor daughter Combii is traumatized after seeing Half Life gameplay on Youtube! She is even afraid to go out in her advisor pod! It's outrageous!
