Victorian'd

Feeling slightly less dead than before. Wheee! Still need to go into town. Boo.

This is one of the most entertaining games I've ever seen online. You get to be a Victorian person, and have to run the etiquette gauntlet. Funny things happen when you choose badly (the ninjas attacking if you pick the wrong dress for a walk in the park are especially amusing). And the way everyone "talks" ("boing boing boing") is far too hilarious. Reserve half an hour for it if you want to play both male and female and get all possible points.

I am "the picture of politeness" as a Victorian man. I'm having troubles as a woman, though. "Unless they rise to the rank of witticisms, puns are to be scrupulously avoided. There is no greater nuisance in society than a dull and persevering punster." For shame.

I did better as the man, too. I think it was because I played him after playing the woman.

And heh.

Actually, I was the picture of politeness as a woman, too, even though I kept screwing up questions (except the park dress one, dammit!). I can only imagine that the score from the man carried over or something.

The scores do carry over. One day I'm going to get every question on that thing wrong, just to see what happens.
