Title: Unpopularity Contest [Prize Game]
Post by: Mop it up on September 01, 2009, 06:26:35 PM
It's time for another prize game! This time around, the loser will be the real winner! The game is simple: whoever receives the LEAST amount of votes in the poll is the winner. Each person can select up to seven options. Try to guess who has received the least votes so you can increase their count.
The poll will run for a week, and the winner will receive a redemption code for 200 Wii Points. In the event of a tie, a new poll will be created containing only the tied players.
Don't want to participate? TOO BAD! I'm dragging you into this whether you like it or not!

Because people like me so much that that wouldn't vote for me so I could win? Makes sense.

I know I'm already the winner. So is this poll for the runner-ups?

"Kushrenada"
Who the heck is that?
And while I can't find anyway to make this funny, I will say that in Gundam Wing Episode 25, Quatre VS Heero, Treize Khushrenada himself said: I want to be a loser. Just thought I'd mention that for some reason. Yeah.

I copied over the list from my last forum game. If your username was mispelled then you missed the opportunity to correct it.
Curses! Foiled and misspelled all in one blow. Oh sure, I can win the class presidency and American Idol but how does my popularity help me when it counts? Oh, the pain of being liked.

What the hell can you do with 200 points?
Title: Re: Unpopularity Contest [Prize Game]
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on September 02, 2009, 04:31:45 PM
Drive yourself mad knowing that no combination of VC/WW purchases will ever make those 200 pts leave your account.
Or you can buy an additional $10 worth of points using a credit card and then purchase two TG-16 games.
Or get Tetris Party for 1,200.

The 200 point codes are, in theory, quite handy for finishing up little bits of points you've got lying around.
I say "in theory", because with my 20,000 points, I'm not too concerned about it right now. ;) It's great to see that Nintendo actually has a method in place for doing 200 points as prizes and such.

I'd rather have $2, at least you can get a couple Grilled Chicken Burritos from Taco Bell with $2.

Alternatively, it's 4 heart attack tacos from Jack in the Box. Do what tastes right. I'm lovin' it. For a limited time.

Also, if you're a shill, you could buy DLC for a SquareEnix game for 200 points, or a song in a music game.
Can't buy anything in Animal Crossing with it, though.

Post by: Stogi on September 03, 2009, 04:29:58 PM
Maybe you could find somebody who would give you $2 for the 200 Wii Points.
Can't. Wiipoints not for resale. Read the fine print.

Chicken Burritos are fucking great. I can't believe they're only .89 a pop.
Title: Re: Unpopularity Contest [Prize Game]
Post by: Stogi on September 03, 2009, 10:47:46 PM
No doubt.
I haven't had taco bell, in general, for so long but that's what I had the last time I was there. Even better, I "conned" the taco maker to hook it up with volcano sauce. I bought two and I was well satiated.

Taco Bell is one of the few fast-food restaurants which doesn't make me puke. Doesn't mean it's any good, just that it isn't as bad as most others.

That's weird because taco bell is by far my LEAST favorite place to eat only because I feel sick immidiatly after eating their food. Last time I went I was suckered into trying some then-new borrito they had, which was basically their "fiesta potatos" in a soft tortilla + bacon, and while good (albeit a tad too salty) by my last bite I wanted to throw up.
Meanwhile McD's, BK, even White Castle I can stomach just fine the few times I visit there. And while I'm at it, KFC's potato wedges are the SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!
Title: Re: Unpopularity Contest [Prize Game]
Post by: Mop it up on September 04, 2009, 06:47:21 PM
Taco Bell is a franchise so I'm sure the quality and cleanliness varies between locations. Also, I've been there only once and it was a long time ago. I think I just got a regular beef taco, and since I didn't like it then I haven't tried any of their other menu items.
McDonald's burgers taste like the black stuff which forms under refrigerators. Burger King tastes like charcoal. KFC is another of the few which doesn't make me sick, though the chicken tastes like cardboard. The sides are good though, like the potato wedges you mentioned.
I'm sure I could build up a tolerance if I went there more often but that's pointless since I don't like any of it.

Unlike the other franchises you mentioned, Taco Bel is the ONLY one that everyone I've ever been to is just god awful in every department. Foods never great (can be tastey but there's always something wrong, whether its cold or the ingredients are FAR from fresh), staff is retarded, facilities are disgusting, etc. It's sad because from time to time they'll have an item on the menu I can enjoy, but have to pass up because I'm certain I'll walk away with a horrible experience.
I actually don't have fast food that often, so I can't really agree that any of those things taste like you described, since every place has at least one item on the menu I can tolerate.

How many Taco Bells have you been to? I'm sure it is a small number considering how many exist in the world.
I don't know why it didn't make me sick, it seems like it should have...
Title: Re: Unpopularity Contest [Prize Game]
Post by: EasyCure on September 04, 2009, 07:27:48 PM
Well obviously i'll never be able to visit every Taco Bell chain out there, but considering I've been to a couple in various cities of this state, and even TWO as far as Florida (I'm from NY mind you).. well it doesn't give me much confidence to keep going back to the franchise when I have so many other, more tolerable places, to choose from.
I've been to more good McD's and BK's than shitty ones, hell I've been to a McD's Express that was nicer than some of the regular McD's I've been to, but I just haven't been lucky with Taco Bell.
Oh and i'd just like to mention that the only White Castle I've ever been to, which is actually a block and a half away from my apartment, is the only fast food chain I've been to that serves there food thru a window of what I have to assume is bullet proof glass. I love this city.

Post by: Mop it up on September 04, 2009, 07:33:20 PM
You're probably not going to find a good Taco Bell, I just generally don't like generalizations is all.
The only fast-food joint I like is a local one called Skyline Chili. I can't always stomach chili very well, but it's so good that I don't care. Of course, if I'm not feeling up for a coney or something then their salads are pretty good too. They sell the chili and the cheese in the grocery store and so I buy it there more often than at the restaurant. It isn't quite as good but it is cheaper.

The best fast food "restaurant", no **** it, I'm getting rid of the quotes - RESTAURANT, is Chick-Fil-A. No question about it - if you disagree, you're wrong. They will bring your food to you, they will get you refills while you sit at your table, and they actually prepare their food fresh every day (my cousin used to work there), oh, and it's fucking delicious.

It makes a good topping for salads. Can you really dismiss it if you've never tried it?
That's what I kept telling my girl, but all she can ever say is, "There is no way you're gonna fit that thing in my....." I think you know where that conversation was going.

This is bull ****. I'm a mother fucking regular for sure. I'm so unpopular that I'm not even on the list. I win this instantly.
I also laugh that insano isn't on this, he would have expected this because he expressed that he "doesn't stand out."

I'm sorry if you feel left out, DAaaMan64. I didn't want the list to be so big, because then there wouldn't be a clear winner. So I just chose the people who signed up for my last forum game.

I know this isn't the food thread but since it was mentioned, chik-fil-a is giving away an original chicken sandwich from 10:30am to closing to people that show up wearing a sports team logo on Monday.

Right now there is a clear winner, and if I assume everyone used all seven of their votes then 14 people voted. I could probably call this one right now, but I guess I'll let it run through, because you never know. Maybe a rush of last-minute voters will come in and change the tide.

it would be funny to see how this goes, this could be a reverse psychology result, which is why we can't see totals. Only the popular people wouldn't be voted for, which would mean the actual unpopular people would really be the popular ones on the list...so they would get the prize?

There was a four-way tie! GoldenPhoenix, Maxi, Stratos, and ThePerm all got the most votes, which means they are...
LOSERS!
Strangely enough, BlackNMild2k1 received the fewest number of votes, which makes him the winner! Your prize will be PM'd to you shortly, and if you want you can find somebody to sell it to and get $2 worth of Taco Bell menu items.
