Samuel Tow hates teaming and 6/8 of the team generally hates teaming with him

But 1/8 of the team usually enjoys it because he gives them his purple recipes.

We need more information to even make sense of this statement. Most people aren't so well choreographed in their teamwork that they'd even notice what other teammates were doing

Unless he's playing a scrapper that's running all over the place or a blaster that's pulling 2 extra groups, nobody should even notice...

Samuel Tow generally is negative towards teaming on the forums. A lot. With lots of words. And he keeps giving me his purple recipe drops when on large teams that I run.

That's about the end of the joke there.

Still no explanation as to what the title is supposed to mean? Do they hate teaming with him because he's constantly typing instead of face-rolling enemies? What?

You might as well have titled the post "Samuel Tow gives me purples, thank you Samuel Tow"

Isn't that what I put in the title? Do you I need to draw you a map? Maybe photoshop some diagrams? Explain the joke to you word by word? Should I hold your hand while I do it?

If it helps any, I got it before the explanation. You know, for what little that's worth.

Venn Diagram: One circle is "People who run teams with Samuel Tow" one Circle "People who get Purple recipes from Samuael Tow". Lable the intersection of the circles "people who enjoy teaming with Sam, Aka me." Lable the circle that's "people who run teams with Sam" excluding the intersection "People who do not enjoy teaming with Sam."

If it weren't for this post I wouldn't have thought Sam had ever teamed.

Plus the OP added used fractions. Using percentages or decimals would have ruined the joke.

I want to know what happened that made everyone but you and Samuel Tow hate teaming with Samuel Tow. The only teammates I hate are level 35+ Stormies that use Gale to blow mobs away from my Tanker

Simple enough??? Don't leave us hanging, bro!

I want to know what makes Samuel Tow such a terrible teammate, to hell with your overly obvious joke

Then draw another circle inside the first circle but excluding the second circle and label it "does not like them here or there, does not like them anywhere."

Did you know that the Ven diagram wasn't invented to help children create posters, but was actually constructed as a tool to solve syllogisms?

On a related note, this topic, in set theory! Let Set A be all people on a team, and Sets B and C subsets of Set A. Let Set B be all people who generally hate teaming with Samuel_Tow. Let Set C be all people who compromise their social integrity for bribes.

Add Set D for fish who don't get the joke and take threads seriously.

I knew there was a reason I hate teaming with Samuel Tow!


(and I refuse to elaborate further on what that reason is!)


 

Posted

Context: I joined the Hamster's team last night, and at the end of that mission four of the people on the team left. I doubt it was because of me, since I didn't really do anything out of the ordinary in that mission (that is to say, not much other than kill stuff as a Brute). I got one purple drop - Hecatomb something - which I didn't need, which I dropped on the Hamster. I didn't need it because I don't use purples, and I'd sold one for 300 million a few hours before and didn't really need any more money right at that moment.

I tend to be very vocal of my dislike for forced teaming on the forums, which people tend to interpret as a dislike for teaming as a concept, and a few tend to be surprised to see me teaming with them over globals and PuGs, especially when the Hamster mentions me by global name. I do team occasionally, as the team game isn't HORRIBLE TERRIBLE, but it's usually when I feel like it for as long as I feel like it, and I do try to be a good sport when I do so.

What's funny is the Hamster was joking about how people left for fear I'd make a long post about how much they sucked, only to end up making a post about said team, himself. I enjoyed it, personally For some reason, I tend to always get purples when I team with him. I don't know what that's all about.
