SYNTAX	EXAMPLES
1. facebook <message>	1. facebook is very happy that it's Saturday.

USE:

Use Facebook when you want to post an arbitrary message from your currently logged-in TriadCity character to your Facebook Wall and News Feed.

Some things to note:

You must have already linked your Facebook and SmartMonsters accounts. You do this from the TriadCity application page on Facebook. You must also grant the TriadCity application a Facebook "extended permission" to write to your Wall. You'll be prompted to do this the first time you use the TriadCity application to login to TC. If this sounds complicated, don't worry. Just click the link above, and follow the instructions.
Your message will be formatted this way: "<Your first name>'s TriadCity character <current character name> <your message>"; e.g., if you're Mark, and you're logged in as Poobah, and you type "is very happy that it's Saturday", the message which appears on your Facebook Wall will be, "Mark's TriadCity character Poobah is very glad that it's Saturday."
If you post too many messages too often, Facebook will cut you off for a while. We have no idea what the rules are: they don't seem to be posted anywhere on the Facebook site. If you find them, please let us know.

Facebook and fb are synonyms for the same action.

"Two of the most common approaches [to academic study of] adventure games seem to be apologetics and trivialization. Both generally fail to grasp the intrinsic qualities of the genre, because they both privilege the aesthetic ideals of another genre, that of narrative literature, typically the novel. For the apologists, adventure games may one day -- when their Cervantes or Dickens comes along -- reach their true potential, produce works of literary value that rival the current narrative masterpieces, and claim their place in the canon. For the trivialists, this will never happen; adventure games are games, they cannot possibly be taken seriously as literature nor attain the level of sophistication of a good novel. Although the trivialists are right -- adventure games will never become good novels -- they are also making an irrelevant point, because adventure games are not novels at all. The adventure game is an artistic genre of its own, a unique aesthetic field of possibilities, which must be judged on its own terms. And while the apologists certainly are wrong, in that the games will never be considered good novels, they are right in insisting that the genre may improve and eventually turn out something rich and wonderful. This may or may not happen, so the only way to understand the genre is to study the various works that already exist and how they are played."
