Off-Topic V3

Imasockpuppet? Imasockpuppet!? Curse you addam...you have won. Well played. Even so, Neuro was able to get a 1001st post before I was able to lock it, so her name is immortalised instead.

Welcome to the third iteration of TUGOWU's Off-Topic thread. Any topics not to do with God Of War are to be placed here. So if it's not to do with the union/games, put it here.

There could have been up to 59 seconds between you though.

Alas, it's over, no win for me today.

The fact that neuro got post number 1001 is to her credit.

I have no idea who the "Imasockpuppet" person was. Perhaps they will introduce themselves in the proper thread one day.

I think I deserve some kind of award for the fastest creation of an account EVAR!

Playing fair? Vastly overrated.

The WIN was mine and it felt soooo good.

Well, the posting time is ~:44 for both addam and me. We posted our posts at the same moment. At least that's how it seemed from my side of the screen ;)neuro_killer

What can I say, the gods favoured me on this occasion. All I can say is thanks to that mysterious poster, whoever they were.

neuro: Sorry for EDITing one of your posts in the caption competetion, I found it distasteful to do so. I was just trying to placate FMM and IQ. No hard feelings? It won't happen again.

snake: WIN slipping through your fingers? Sheer clasz. Just didn't have time to mention it in the race for the prize

EDIT

I just happened to have a spare e-mail, I couldn't have created both in such a short space of time. I got a little worried when I recalled you mentioning that you had a couple of "secondary accounts"

addaminsain

Thank you, and you did create that account fairly quickly. I do have a couple of other accounts, but I wouldn't have used them, I would have wasted a minute at least trying to remember the passwords, very convulted they were.

Question, now that we have powers again, does anyone feel like a new/different banner? Or is it just me?

There could have been up to 59 seconds between you though.Snake4eva_92

Blaming alphabetic order. That would do it.

Perhaps I should add a few extr "a" to the start of my name to make sure an aardvark never gets the better of me.

Good point. I forgot how punctuation marks and numbers override true alphabeticism.

snake: New banner? have anything in mind?

Nothing in mind, it just feels like the union's 'been reborn', and so deserves a new banner to feast our eyes upon.

I'd try my hand at it, but my so called 'designer skills' are lacking lately, and they were never great to start with.

I might try it, but I'm not going to expect to make anything usable.

Still, won't hurt to have a stab at it.

WRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

Perhaps it is a job for AIG? unless anyone else wants to try their hand at it.addaminsain

I'm already working on one for you. I'm making one for all the officers.

Here is Addam's.

I'm drawing a blank for yours Alucard... any hints?

Something Half-Life inspired would be nice, or Hellsing.(my username)Or Broly, or Hollow Ichigo(Bleach). I realize I'm rambling and it would be more helpful to give you a more specific hint, but any of those would be fine with me.Alucard_rules

How's this?

Okay, guys. I'm requesting you put a little chunk of text at the top of your signature. Use mine as a teplate. (UNION Position - Username)da Leedah

Yeah, I agree. A Leedah, 5 officers and a recruit. A series of horrible mistakes is just waiting to happen and that we should avoid at all cost. So what both the leedah and the officers have this eye piercing, green/orange label near their avatars. It surely is not enough. I suggest the "little chunk of text" in the signatures is bright red or better flicking and repeated at least trice because someone might still overlook it :]

Thanks, what inspired the choice of design?

any chance of having the "addaminsain" not "ALL CAPS" ?

EDIT

Loving the red text there neuro. Sheer clasz

(sigh) Must you pick apart everything he does? It's getting old. Alucard_rules

Old? And...? I mean, who cares? Not me. Besides, I don't pick apart everything he does. If I wanted to do it I'd have to write all the time. I generally ignore his presence but his latest idea is just so senseless and embarassing that I decided to comment.

And I'd prefer it if you'd at least begrudgingly follow the rules so that I can continue enjoying your company in the off topic threads.Alucard_rules

There isn't a single rule in the TUGOWU rules that I broke with the previous post.

That's besides the point.

I just hate seeing you continue to do this, when I'd rather not have to take sides. Whatever, I'll leave you to your own devices.Alucard_rules

Yes, do accept all he proposes regardless of everything - for the sake of neutrality.

Well, I'm not that easy to alienate, y'know. And I don't try to make a bad guy out of you. I might be a bit surprised by your passiveness but you're right, there's not much to talk as far as this whole situation is concerned.

just to add to the "confusion" I have not yet added the tag

Heretic!

I don't like the yellow colour gamespot forces you to use when linking. So instead I've linked my signature.

I'll alter yours and addams sign later, probably not today. I had originally used a solid background but thought it would look cool transperant. I imediately realised my folly when I posted it here.

NEURO: It wasn't meant for you in the first place, just the officers. The reson behind it is so if we post on other boards it will let people know who we are.

Sooner or later. I'll get to it. Avatar and all. Banner even.

~Big Train rests his case

NOTE: I've had the urge (again) to use false links that only convey extra info through the description.

Yeah, I know.

The reson behind it is so if we post on other boards it will let people know who we are.174IQ

And what is the purpose of that?

Yeah, the problem is that TUGOWU does not trigger immediate assocciations with God of War. Frankly speaking, when I didn't know what it is, it did not trigger any assocciations at all, well maybe with an exception of the Go game and on second thoughts some Chinese stuff (the 'wu' bit), however not spontaniously but forcedly.

Ask yourself a question, what would you think if you saw some user with something like this in his signature:

IIJAGU officer - Kerner

Hmm, discreet YouTube advertising, I never thought of that.

As I do not post at other boards I will not be adding the TUGOWU Occifer text
