Great for the laughs alone! Perhaps too few cards for four players, and it needs more ways to play Bugs, but it's a good deck all around. --Breadman, 28.7.03
Other card ideas: Blue Screen of Death (Bug) - You can't play bugs on anyone until this bug is removed. Destroys auto save if you have it in play. Software Hack (Bug) - Upon receiving this bug, give a random card to the player who played this bug on you. Multiplayer (Feature) - Action: Destroy this card to move a bug in your code to another player. Re-engineering (Action) - Discard a random card to steal a feature from any player. --Doc Immortal, 31.10.03
This deck seems to play better (and was perhaps intended to be played) if you can play Bugs onto your opponents' software whenever you can legally play a Thing. Oh, and it's great fun. :) --Terry, 11.1.04
Useless Error Messages (Bug) Any card can be played on you, face-down. Face-down cards act as mysterious, extra-annoying bugs. Action: Turn a face-down card face-up. If it's not a bug or a feature, discard it. "ERROR - The following error occurred: An error has occurred." --Jason, 11.2.04
18-Hour Support Call From Hell (Action) - Play this on an opponent who has at least one bug. That player loses his or her next two turns. --Jason, 11.2.04
Disastrous Design Flaws should read "Action: Return two of your Features to your hand to destroy this bug." --Jason, 11.2.04
Possible names for featuers: "Spam Filter"; "Wardialer"; "Tip of the Day"; "Undo"; "Controls Coffeemaker and Roomba Via Wireless Network". --Jason, 11.2.04
Definately one of the more playable decks on this site. Also one of the more funny ones. I guess that makes it one of the best. I'll go with that. --Joel, 19.11.04
Just reading the cards is making me laugh out loud (I work in IT). I have to play this and see if I can come up with any more... --Cornflake, 17.5.05
I agree with Terry; this deck should have a Special Rule: When playing a Bug, choose a player to control it. --Rovenhot, 8.7.05
