Title: Why is Crimm posting in the funhouse so much?
Post by: BeautifulShy on April 05, 2010, 10:16:26 PM
Everybody knows that the staff really don't post on the forums other than to post in Talkback and the blog section. There has to be a reason for this sudden spike in Crimm's activity.

I have come with a few ideas why the spike.

Crimm is being paid more per post he makes.

His recent handling of PAX East has gone to his head and thinks he is a celebrity.

He for some reason has less responsibilities as a staff member and wanted to post more.

Post your thoughts and possible reasons for this spike.

Be outlandish as you want;)

I think he's quit his job on staff because he was hired to do commentary on NHL games based on the bang-up job he did in the videos of me and Lindy's match, and since he's not staff anymore he doesn't get secretly beaten by TYP every time he posts on the forums.

Or I've taken over as site director...

Try to make up something believable.

I think the answer is obvious. Look at my life for an example: when I have assignments or things I have to do where do I go? Here. Crimm is just procrastinating.

I figured his 360 was busted again and since he doesn't play Wii games he had nothing to do last night.
Title: Re: Why is Crimm posting in the funhouse so much?

Let me respond to some vicious rumors:

1. I have not kicked someone out of a car since I became an adult in the eyes of the law. Any previous incidents are sealed.

2. I used to post here quite a bit, but nobody ever bothered to troll me, even after I became community manager (except Ty, who did so in epic fashion).

3. I play my Wii plenty, but who wants to hear about that kiddy system?

4. I have not played the 360 in three weeks. To my knowledge it still works, unless vudu messed with it.

5. I play the DS a lot, so it's not like I'm Jon "No Nintendo. Please" Lindemann.

6. I'm not technically not engaged in procrastination. The feature scheduled to go out yesterday was pre-empted by Neal's feature. As the Features Editor I could have stolen his thunder, but decided not to. It would have been ready before yesterday, but situations beyond my control prevented it.

7. I wrote a review while I was here last night.  I gave it an 8.  The review, not the game. It is one of the FOUR reviews I have in various states of ready.

8. I moderated buckethatt yesterday. That counts as work, therefore not procrastination.

9. Everyone in this thread is cruisin for a brusin.

10. Sexually

Yo, Crimm!  What's up with the round tables?  Were they scrapped because they interfered with your playing of RPGs no one else cares about?

You should roundtable the forum instead.
We are the most interesting part of this place afterall.

As long as he's not procrasturbating (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=procrasturbation) while in the forum, I'm okay with whatever else he does around this place (or lack thereof).

I think Crimm was duped into taking the position without fully knowing what it entailed if I recall correctly.

It's April, so that must mean it's almost time for the 2009 Game of the Year Awards.

Hey I like that feature. How come there wasn't one?

I can assure you there will not be a game of the year awards for 2009. That doesn't mean I don't have something else ready.

As for the timing, there was much saber rattling and arm twisting.

Do you really think I have the kind of authoritative dominion to get them to agree on 18 months of games? Hell, I can't get them to agree on category names!

I assumed any GOTY plans were scrapped in favor of the Game of Decade voting/vetting on the 'cast?

No, it's turned into something else entirely, something I actually prefer to arbitrary awards.

You should all be aware that I roomed with Crimm at E3 last year. The sexual tension in the room was electrifying. We were both mildly disappointed that the room had two beds.
Title: Re: Why is Crimm posting in the funhouse so much?
Post by: vudu on April 08, 2010, 02:49:03 PM
They did attempt to push the beds together, but their combined upper body strength wasn't enough to move the beds because the frames didn't have wheels on them.
Title: Re: Why is Crimm posting in the funhouse so much?
Post by: Halbred on April 08, 2010, 03:00:45 PM
Nobody said we used BOTH beds.

I have a pretty mild case, honestly. I was a competative swimmer in high school and part of college. So far the disease hasn't really caught up to me yet.
Title: Re: Why is Crimm posting in the funhouse so much?
Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on April 08, 2010, 03:47:43 PM
So what you're trying to say is that you were on top?
and even if you wanted to be a bottom, your CF wouldn't let let you.

Ah this is gotten disgusting funny.
Hey i have another idea why Crimm is posting in the funhouse.
There is a bet that he has to keep posting in the funhouse or he has to show up at the next big gaming event in a ballerina outfit.If he can make it to the next event with one post in the funhouse each day than he is safe from other bets of this sort in the future.

Getting Warmer

He is a ballerina. Thats why he was pacing up and down the PAX hall. Getting a feel of the room for those twirl-and-tucks.
