Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), weight loss photos, posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. Weight loss photos go in /r/loseit, DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

Here's how you win the game: * get rid of your first symptom * get basic resistance * get one of the transmission attributes * then go do something else for 10 minutes * come back, make it deadly

The guy you're replying to sort of misused it there, but uhh:

In the game, it tends to be Madagascar that shuts down all of it's ports etc immediately, leading to people claiming it's practically impossible to ever spread their disease there.

Super skills my man!

Really I haven't a clue how that happened... I let my parasite play out on its own for about 100 days, then bumped up the infectivity. After places started getting infected, I let it go for another 100 or so days until everywhere had closed down, then started bumping up the lethality.

It was a pretty slow game, so maybe that's why. [I started in Cuba by the way]

[–]tyson31415 16 points17 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I've played it less than 10 times, but I've won twice.

The trick is make the disease harmless with no symptoms and high resistance. It takes forever to get spreading, but because it isn't killing anybody the ports stay open long enough for the disease to spread everywhere.

Once you've got infected everywhere, then kick up the lethality as fast as you can to shut down the hospitals. After that its just a waiting game.

I have a question for you. What's the score based off of? I killed every single man, woman and child on Earth and my score was around 47 000. I looked at the high score board at people had 400 000+ scores.

Is it scoring more points for killing every fast? Did I miss out on style points?

As someone who won the great-race of seeing who could be the person who beat this game the first in my Graphic Design class, I can tell you that starting in Madagascar is actually one of the worst places you can start in. This is because, just as it's hard to get the pathogen to Madagascar, it's equally as hard to get it out.

Protip: Don't go anything past tier 1 for symptoms. Ever.

I just won, second attempt. What I did was go parasite and remove all my symptoms then get level 3 resistances in all but drug, I started in the US and eventually it spread to the whole world. When they started researching a vaccine I quickly researched Drug Resistance 4 and they closed down all the hospitals and the vaccine never got made. Then they all died when I started adding symptoms.

It's always awkward to explain this game.

"What are you playing?" "Pandemic 2" "What is it?" "You have to design a virus, bacteria, or organism that spreads globally, and then implement symptoms that will kill the host. The goal it to wipe out humanity. I have only done this once before." "..."

So i started a new game and in just a few days got this: http://imgur.com/yt2Ii

Bacteria, no symptoms bought, level II for every resistance, and every transmission except for water.

It started in Greenland, and rapidly it spread to Australia and Madagascar. Three islands in a few days. This is so lucky that i know I'll fuck it up sooner or later.

I think the only way to win is to have Madagascar be the first place your disease breaks out.

How did this game become popular? I've heard a lot about it over the years, but not anything that makes it sound more than an interesting 15 minute diversion.

That would be horrible :( I was referring that it would be too soon for any natural disaster there. Not what has happened :(

Had this. They shut down the ports before it could spread off the island...

This happened to me once and I had the same reaction you did.

The disease proceeded to stop at Madagascar....

if you go with parasite that has no symptoms.... chances are it will affect everywhere. Then use your evolution points to make it crazy deadly

There is actually a way to ensure that Madagascar is always infected, check out the walkthrough if you are interested.

I always restart the game until I start in Madagascar. Not cheating. At all.

My husband and I played that game for an hour last night. I was trying everything to get to Madagascar, and then I did it!

Two seconds later, my husband says, "Hell yeah, it started my disease in Madagascar!"

I was pissed.

Sorry, not the best place to get the disease to spread the fastest. I would suggest Canada or a few other countries (can't think of them at the moment.

you make a disease and infect the world before they close airports/seaports/borders and create a vaccine. Madagascar always closes everything the second they realize someone in the world is sick. It spawned the "Shut down everything" meme.

TIL that "Shut Down Everything" came from Pandemic 2's Madagascar. I always thought it was when some country was trying to shut down the media/internet/something.

It's even harder to win when it starts there, because they shut down everything before it can spread anywhere.

Me and some of my friends actually managed to basically make a school project out of pandemic 2. Got an A, everything went better than expected.
