Why Spymaster sucks

It started out as a good idea.  For a very brief time I was thinking about playing it. Like many other online games ala Mafia wars, dungeon master etc, you get points for doing things. Where spymaster, or as a friend on twitter pointed out it should be called spam master.(thanks John) So much crap is showing up in my tweet stream.

You may have seen some of these, for instance

Just bought a Makarov PM, 9x18mm. #spymaster http://bit.ly/playspy

or : I just assassinated a diplomat. #spymaster http://bit.ly/playspy (expand)

Here’s a new one, How about you’re playing spymaster, and I don’t give a damn about dead drops, weapons you bought, or any other BS you may be doing. Outside of your SM buddies no one gives a damn. All you’re doing is pissing off your followers. I’ve seen more than a handful of people, myself included, that are just going to stop following you. I liken this to scammers/spammer/twelebs(twitter celebs) and others. Twitascope announcements are pretty damn annoying as well. They may be the next to go, along with people that do nothing but #FF crap as well.
