@CardboardRobot@mstdn.social Seconded. My 9 o'clock #HashTagGames are not a competition. The purpose of my once daily game is so people can come together and solve the puzzle. There is not a winner or loser, or right or wrong way to interpret my game puzzle. It's why I don't boost game plays from the official account. I was going to do "best of", each night at the ActivityPub enabled WordPress site that I setup a couple years ago, and where the games come out of now, but decided against it. I have the same stats and actually run scripts so I could pick "the best of" and have for 1300 of our +1500 games now but I get too many "I'm not smart enough to figure this game out so Don't feel bad if I don't play tonight" messages so I changed my mind and made it "there's no wrong way" because my intention was to just put out something for the community to cleanse the mind by putting it to use for something else other than bills, the news, politics, loud neighbors, etc. I understand this was probably testing the scripts or for PR but I hope it doesn't become a regular published data clown show competition game for my 9pm game. #WhenTheStoryAnnoyedMe @paco@infosec.exchange

If you are seeing the new game in your timeline but missed the game tip in the poster, here it is: "Tip: We know the garbage AI spews in search, chat, history and facts. What if AI enhanced items had the same results. Tell us the item and what AI did, create names for items, etc." #ApocalypticAIenhancedItems #HashTagGames

In the process of "moving" this account over to the new server at hashtaggames.online. Current followers here should automatically follow the newer account where the games are being posted now once it is completed. After the move, this account will have a redirect message.

As of right now, the previous games will stay here but will be migrating those game posts over in the next few days.

Thanks for your patience over the past few weeks.

If you don't merge, you can always follow @HashTagGames@hashtaggames.online #HashTagGames

(I'm doing maintenance tonight on my servers so I don't have a problem like I had before when the server crashed, this includes the new #HashTagGames account server. It started early due to time zone mix-up with my host so I am posting tonight's game early and from the old account. PLEASE BOOST!)

If you're not following @HashTagGames@hashtaggames.online at hashtaggames.online, you won't get the new nightly game post. #HashTagGames Since the server crash, this account is now for administrating the games since I moved the games to a dedicated domain that is not reliant on heavy Mastodon/Fediverse software. Soon I will try to migrate it so following is automatic. Until that time, it might be best to follow that account as well, though

Time For Christmas o'clock #HashtagGames hosted by @paul@oldfriends.live.

#BoxingDayASong
#12DaysOfChristmas
#HashtagGames

How to play: Write something awesome, Use the Hashtag, Toot/Post and Repeat!

TIP: On Boxing Day, the day after Christmas, servants, tradespeople, and the poor traditionally were presented with gifts. By the 21st century it had become a day associated with shopping, sporting events and family traditions.

There's no wrong way to play or interpret the game.

This is the final game of the 2025 12 Days of Christmas series. Thanks for playing!

RE: https://oldfriends.live/@hashtaggames/116072323995143766 How is the new way we are posting games doing for you? I have edited the profile name of the old account to Hashtag Games Admin, am boosting from here, game tips, messages, etc. I am still getting into the groove of navigating the Fediverse with WordPress. Here is the Fediverse account that the games are posting from: @HashTagGames@hashtaggames.online I am working on porting over the old games, with their dates, to it for the archive without spamming the Fediverse. That will take time to get it sorted out. It appears we are having more reach and players now. Feel free to private message games ideas to this account. Thanks for playing.

@pwloftus@pwl.farted.net Thanks. The OG replier I quoted replied back that for them, it was the Elk app it happened in, normal in other apps/web. Thanks for letting me know it happens on other accounts, too. @paul@oldfriends.live
