"Little ghost, little ghost, let me come in..."

"F*** YOU, I'M GONNA KILL YA!"

He's not doing it wrong. He's doing it in the wrong game.

@ B-mac

hence he's doing it wrong....

Pac-man thinks its ok because he had his "pills".
Reply
Nah, he's doing it correctly. It's just that, in this game, it's not a smart move.
Reply
@B-Mac - Again, that means he's doing it wrong. Spawncamping is the general practice of camping near where things you want to have spawn. Camping the spawn points of things that kill you is a bad strategy. How is this not clear? The Pac is doing it (it being "Spawncamping") wrong by doing it at all.

I'm...I'm pretty sure that he is indeed doing it wrong

cause I tried...

So many good Pacs that day

Jeez, what part of "You're doing it wrong" don't you understand? He's camping on a spawn, which means he's doing it right. If he was doing it wrong, he wouldn't be camping in front of the ghost spawn. He'd be camping somewhere else. What he's doing right now is a bad strategy and that does not mean he's "doing it wrong". If he was trying to survive, he'd be "doing it wrong", but he spawn camping. In this picture he's doing it right. What can't you understand about that?

I'm under the impression, though, that spawn camping doesn't include the goal of dieing

so

thus

I do believe

he is doing it wrong

I agree with B-Mac, he is spawn camping the right way, though it may lead to bad results, so he is doing it right

And with that said, I believe that it should say

"Spawncamping

Good luck with that"
Reply
"Spawncamping"...wait... you dumb fuck
Reply
Yeah, I like the other captions provided by Random Man and Glitch. They seem more suited. As for the goal of dying, there is no goal of dying. That's just what's going to happen to Pacman if he tries to spawn camp. Though, I guess that is what Twentay means.

To weigh in on this rather petty and pedantic debate...

I believe spawncamping is carried out for the sole purpose of KILLING the people that come through the spawn spot. Therefore, the intention is that you have the capacity to kill those who spawn there - which Pacman does not. Therefore, Pacman is doing spawncamping wrong, because he is spawncamping without the means of killing.
Reply
Actually, he is spawncamping with the means of killing, but he can't kill the ghosts after they respawn. He is spawncamping correctly, it just doesn't work very well in this game. That's why people think he's doing it wrong.

No, see, for him to have means to kill, he'd have to have one of the big circles. He doesn't have one of the big circles, meaning he has no means to kill. Therefore, he is doing his spawncamping wrong, because he is doing it without means to kill. His mouth does not count in this instance, because it is not a means.

Why are we even arguing this?
Reply
He is spawncamping correctly, but he isn't spawn killing. so "Spawnkilling, you are doing it wrong"
Reply
As you can tell by the picture, he did have a big circle. The problem is you can only kill each ghost once with it. Keeping that in mind, he is spawncamping correctly, but it doesn't work in the ideal way for him. In his case, the only way for him to "spawnkill" is to run to a big circle and back to the spawn and kill 4 ghosts, then to another big circle, etc. But, that is impossible. Some of the ghosts can escape before Pacman can make it to the spawn again. So, all Pacman can do is spawncamp (and die shortly after), but not spawnkill.

I'm just bored, hahah. Thanks to Degillin for "spawnkilling".

This is a video game debate? I thought it was a "you're doing it wrong" debate? Hahah. Or is it a spawncamping debate?

Seriously, B-Mac, stop. You are becoming a MAJOR pain in everyone's crotch, so if you don't want people flaming you, get out of the frying pan (and NOT into the fire).
