No one on Sandbox is cool, but earlier this week the clique was running Sandbox up until it imploded with drama and we had 2 new owners. We are waiting to see how Bebop does as owner this time around and if he'll stay away from the clique business.

check our banner, those are the biggest players in our most recent catastrophe (bebop, merlot, jimbei, golbolco, myself, and eris)
golbolco's always around making threads or plugging her goofy setup. lastprophet used to make these insane threads too. meetterry owns general discussion.
Sandbox is a place where people can have fun and be with friends instead of forced into games with supercompetitove people who only care about winning and insult you when you make a mistake. We realize that having fun is more important than a trophy-sized group of pixels or digits next to a win counter.
MeetTerry is fine. He posts a lot of serious discussion threads but he's a trollish person and so sometimes when he gives an opinion that isn't super liberal people take offense to it and think he's just trying to make a joke.

depends on how you feel about controversial topics and bait threads

sandbox definitely gets hostile and neurotic sometimes, but there are a handful of diamonds in the rough that make the community a good place to be. otherwise we just joke and rib each other until things go too far. and then you get conned into forcing someone to be deownered. :^)
If you're playing the actual games and not sitting in the lobby chat all day every day, you'll be alright. The chat is where many of the toxic players who live for drama nest.
So besides mafia, what about the community, tell me all the bizz about that

and hey man, that's fine. it's not for everyone. it stresses me out a little too much. in the same vein, sandbox isn't for everyone either. it's just based on preference.
Sandbox games are different than main lobby unranked games. It's just a way different atmosphere and the factors are always changing, the threats are always changing. When you have the same exact setup every single time, I can see how it does get boring when there is no reward, but our games are entirely different.
I agree, points & karma don't mean anything besides something to look at, but I guess the competitive nature is what's appealing to me

we hate people that ruin the game. when someone suicides and the game breaks or claims virgin as fool. that ain't cool.
and points don't really matter to us. if we need points to post on the forums or give karma or what have you, we pointfarm. but otherwise they mean nothing.
I'm not trolling, I'm genuinely curious. I've played ranked so much, even before tiered lobbies, that an unranked game to me isn't interesting because there isn't the payout that I would find in ranked
