Exceptions Update

A lot of people who have come out with the "No Mercy" exception have objected that it's not that they don't care about hurting the feelings of other players, but simply that they prefer to play on their own. This is an oversight in the results definitions, and will be addressed in the future. Thanks for bringing this flaw to our attention!

For the time being, I have updated the definition of "No Mercy" on the Exceptions page as follows:

No Mercy

You rarely if ever care about hurting other players' feelings – mercy is for the weak! Alternatively, you may simply prefer to keep your own company and not enjoy playing with other people.

Thanks for making that amendment, guys. I saw the 'No Mercy' exception in my results, and I was a little surprised with the description. As many others have said, it's not that I don't care about the feelings of others when I play with them, it's that in general I don't play videogames with other people at all.

I hope you don't mind, I did a little write up on this and put a link on my blog.
