The difference is subtle, but I think it is more along the lines of your intent.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

Edit: Was you exemp'd down or something? Or is that player in front of you NOT you? [judging by your powers available im going by you have to be a minimum of 32]

Doesn't look like Atlas to me. With those type of walls in the background (and the hill), I think it's in Hollows (which has exits to both Atlas and Skyway).|

Edit: Should I say "busted" on this one? :-P
Edit 2: It also says in the picture "Smokin Joe has defeated Outcast Initiate Slugger" so it has to be Hollows. Most definetly busted! :-)

A common... I guess you would call it a "game"... in America, particularly with children and young teens, goes as follows: - Two people say the exact same thing at the exact same time - One of the two says "Jinx! You owe me a Coke" |

Even in the UK its a well known game for young children. One of those things thats done entirely by accident.
I know a slightly different version however that when two people say the same thing at the same time and one of them says "jinx", the person who is then jinxed cannot say another word apart unless they say the same word as the "jinxer" at the same time. If they do this correctly then they are no longer jinxed. If they fail however, there was a failure punishment which i cant remember.

We had the Jinx thing, but Coke/soda was never involved. It's been a while, but I think it was something like you were open game to be punched if you talked before someone said your name.

That Jinx game is not a "thing" where I'm from, and I'm in the southern US. Never heard of it before today. Anyway, didn't Halle Berry play a character named Jinx in a bad James Bond movie?
Also: The worst name I've ever actually seen on a player is something I can't repeat here, at least without using a bunch of *s. I reported it, as did some of the other players standing around gaping.

I remember it being anything the kids agreed upon. The satisfaction of saying jinx first was usually enough though =P
In fact, I was jinxed just a few days in a global channel. ^_^;
