Title: The Wii U perma-ban wager
Post by: King of Twitch on April 03, 2014, 04:34:34 PM
Bet him a perma-ban if he's wrong!

I just saw this. My apologies.

I considered it, but I didn't think a ban was going to work because mods would have to get involved. Also, I don't actually want Ian banned. If anything, he just needs to chill with the negativity. He chickened out of betting so this doesn't matter anyway. If you're wondering, my terms if (really, when) I won was he would have to end each post with "I'm a daft ****" as a separate paragraph. It couldn't be his signature either since (not sure about other people's habits) I tend to scroll past those. He would have to write it at the end of every single post for like a few months, a year maybe (and he couldn't go back and edit them out later).

That would have been awesome, I approve.

Given how many years ago i asked for the Funhouse to be renamed to The Moist Towellettes and Crimm refused, i'm not surprised.

Fine ADROCK, if you don't I will.

IAN, we think you are a beardless child without the courage to defend your tiresome drivel with real action, but we challenge you to accept a real joust nonetheless. If the Wii U is in bargain bins by the end of the year, let the mods perma-ban me; if you're wrong, you get the axe.

No second chances, no sissy private messaging to mods to overturn the results. Perma-bans for the losers.

If anyone else wants to join in, sign below the line. Now haste, and let see whether any here dare say aught.

I don't agree with this wager.

I'd rather see something like "Loser pays $500 to Child's Play" or something.  Something substantial.

What! Is this NWR's house, the rumor of which runs through realms unnumbered?
Where now is your haughtiness, and your high conquests,
your fierceness and fell mood, and your fine boasting?

And so I crave in this court only an Easter pastime
since it is spring and you are young here and merry,
If any so hardy in this house here holds that he is,
if so bold be his blood or his brain be so wild,
that he, Ian, stoutly dare strike one stroke for another,
then I will give him as my gift this banhammer so costly,
this axe--'tis heavy enough--to handle as he pleases;
and if the Wii U is in bargain bins one year and one day hence,
I will abide the brunt, here bare as I sit.
If Ian be so fierce as my faith to test
hither let him haste to me and lay hold of this weapon--
I hand it over for ever, he can have it as his own--
and I will stand stroke from him, stock-still on this floor,
provided thou'lt lay down this law: that if the Wii U is not in bargain bins in one year and one day hence, I may deliver the blow.

when people get banned can they at least be allowed to post here?

We should revoke post editing privileges here in the funhouse. Gotta create parity with "the other funhouse".

If we remove the ability to edit posts in here it'll be too hard to tell which one is which.

Exactly. We need to follow Nintendo's pioneering leadership in account unification and begin the migration to one single board for talkingback and funhousiness. It is what the customers want, after all. You can tell by the fervor of their comments.

Everyone on this site is a baby, but maybe with a bigger outreach effort this thread could get more participation.

The thing is, you'd need to clarify what you mean by "in the bargain bins".  Several EU retailers have had, basically, fire sales on Wii U to clear them out of inventory.  Does that count?

Last time I made a joke like that, it was taken very wrong...
It was in regards to Punch Out and a certain country not being included.

some people just can't take a joke.

To be fair I'd be cranky too if I were from whatever second-rate, backwater country they were from.

Wait a minute! Are you saying you actually cared what some non-American said and took it to heart and are now spewing their unpatriotic whining to others? I demand to see your proof of citizenship because you don't sound very American to me.

I signed up for therapy right after it happened. It was some intense sessions involving sleep deprivation, water boarding & shock treatment. It ended in me signing up for the military where I am now a 2 star captain in the greatest military of the greatest nation on this planet. Earned my stripes by eating, sleeping and bleeding red white and blue. I now carry a gun with me everywhere I go and will gladly feed the barrel of it to any [*bleep bleep CENSORED bleep bleep*] questioning my patriotism. HOO RAH!!! [/bald eagle tear]
