Blame List
|
This article is about Space Sim Lore. It contains anecdotes or Spacesim mythology. |
The blame list is created by the Sim members of a given year and lists members in the order in which to allot blame for a problem. The list is also referred to as A BIT FOO, or as the acronym stands for: Assign Blame in the Following Order Only.
Origin
The blame list started in the 2000-2001 year, under David Owen and Gabrielle Wilson. At that time, the list was simply an in-joke, until the Astronauts used their allocated signing space on the Airlock to write the list down. The same list was continued in the 2001-2002 year, and was referred to constantly during the move to 440 Albert Street. The list remained relatively unchanged throughout that year. Use of the list was discontinued as a joke until the 2005-2006 year, when some current members found the original list on a piece of Hawking Airlock.
