Hoothooters! Can I get sum?

[Bulbasaur4]

I'm sure they're just busy and that they'll approve that/those which need to be approved. *looks longingly at her reffing post* ^_^;;

I find that I'm much to impatient in regards to battles though... mostly because since I'm the 2nd noob, I have that... beginner's enthusiasm. XD At least, that is what I'm labeling it as.

[Unsolved Puzzle]

*jumps up in air*

if ur the 2nd noob i must be the #1 noob! whos #1? Im the biggest noob! gooooooo NOOBY

*cough*

back on topic, chris hasnt been on so much so that may explain the slow going, i have been waiting 3 weeks to learn if i am an aproved ref but even i the #1 noob must try to restrain myself

~puzzle

[Mew Master]

Dont' refer to Bulba4 as a n00b, that's demeaning to anyone. Besides I have too much respect for ppl on here even if they're new to ASB they've been with the board for years.

[Greyfox]

At ease, Mew Master. Bulbasaur4 referred to herself that way first, and Unsolved Puzzle merely interpreted it incorrectly.

Unsolved Puzzle, when she referred to herself as #2, she meant that she was the second-to-last member to join ASB; the last person, or "#1 noob" is in reference to her friend, Dr. McNinja.

-Grey

[Unsolved Puzzle]

see , i am new to the forums in general , and i make the most mistakes, so i am the 1# noob

[endy]

So i'm new here, and waiting for my team to get aproved, after it gets aproved, how would you recomend that i start my time at this forum?

[Blademaster]

Just post an open challenge and wait for a reply.

Be sure to include in it at least the following:


-the number of Pokemon per player
-who sends out first and who attacks first
-how long either player can go without posting before their DQ (disqualification)
-what type of arena you'll be battling in


Anything else you may want to include, like banned attacks, time limits, or the like, is entirely optional.

Good luck, dude/dudette.

[Bulbasaur4]

Yeah, I was referring myself as a nooooooobiiieee....

although, I am quite happy I was approved as a ref. I might be a rookie, but I like to think I'm fairly fast and helpful! ^_^;; lol

[Mew Master]

Whoo-hoo for the Rookie Refs!

Rookie Ref Powers ACTIVATE!!

Form of a corprelite! *turns into a rock and starts slowly scooting off*

[Blademaster]

Uh... I would REALLY rather stay as far from that as possible, but corprolites aren't technically rocks, dude...... >>;;;;;;;;;

[Bulbasaur4]

Oh oh, let me try!

ahem...
ROOKIE POWERS ACTIVATE!
*turns into a fluffy Eevee*

... ... >.> <.< >.> ... well this isn't that scary, is it?
*wanders*

[Mew Master]

Blade, you are technically correct as corprolites are technically fossilized dung. BUT, they are fossilized which means that they went through a process that replaced all organic material (okay more like 99.9% of it) with minerals. So it's a Rock anyway. *scoots in front of Bulba4's Eevee form, making her trip*

[Blademaster]

Technicalities, technicalities... HEY! It's illegal to trip things that are that cute!!

(drop-kicks the rock into the next forum)

HE'S YOUR PROBLEM NOW, FANFICTION!!

[Greyfox]

We got these rings from a box of Frankenberry...

Anyway, as I was venturing through the forums that aren't ASB (a collected gasp consumes the fast food joint), I came across Endy's welcoming topic, in which Lady Vulpix thoroughly outed him as Unsolved Puzzle using her special Super Mod powers.

Now I'm not sure of the legitimacy of said powers, but I'm more inclined to believe her than Endy the newcomer, so I've come to ask the ASBers - what's your take on this?

Has Unsolved Puzzle, stricken with the sheer amount of grief the board members have put him through for his annoying, yet unbeknowing, post tactics, conceived an unruly plot to shave off his former existence only to return moments later wearing a top hat and a fake 'stache in hopes to make fools of us all?

I mean, both accounts do have similar posting styles and grammar issues, but c'mon... this is the Internet. There are literally thousands upon thousands of Unsolved Puzzles infesting countless online communities with their subpar fanfiction and their horrific ideas for bettering the foundation they have just joined. Could Endy just be one of those Unsolved Puzzle would-be's, and not the Unsolved Puzzle himself?

Or is it as Lady Vulpix politely, yet bluntly, pointed out - Unsolved Puzzle = Endy? It is strange that Endy's account wasn't created until after Unsolved Puzzle's departure, bringing me to this coincidental, yet appropriate, simile, "Has anyone ever seen Superman and Clark Kent in the same room at the same time?"

Of course, like a wanted criminal with evidence piling against him, Endy says "no way, not me" to the Lady G's claims. He even goes so far as getting Unsolved Puzzle's name incorrect when confronted by the thought.

This, of course, leads me to believe that both Unsolved Puzzle and Endy are, in fact, the same person. However, it's not what you think. Perhaps the two accounts were created not by a thirteen-year old kid curious about the outside world via the Internet, but by a twenty-something college student with a hypothesis eager to experiment. What if he created the Unsolved Puzzle account as a clever and thought-provoking riddle amongst us members, then shafted the account only to create a similar account just to keep said members guessing. It seems apparent - Endy knows about IP banning and even challenges anyone to do it. Both accounts, when first created, asked the typical "newbie" questions; surely, if Unsolved Puzzle was Endy, he'd know the answer to those questions already, and wouldn't need to ask them again, even if he were trying to be someone else. But that tool is, perhaps, too crafty for a thirteen-year old - especially one such as him.

We also know that Unsolved Puzzle, when challenged, is not afraid to lie, even to the point of backing himself into a corner. Take, for instance, his post in Fanart - he posted a link to a slideshow of pictures he claimed were his. When Bulbasaur4 called him on it, stating that the pictures weren't his, he offered to prove his skills by offering to draw a similar picture for anyone who requested. Bulbasaur4 then countered by stating that she knew the person responsible for some of the drawings, someone not Unsolved Puzzle. Before he could post his rebuttal, however, he left the forums altogether.

Given all this, my theory is that: Unsolved Puzzle = Endy = Anyone on this Forum.

These obviously shared accounts could be shared by anyone. Hell, I could've created both accounts just to screw with everyone? How can I prove otherwise? Well, I can't, same as everyone else...

We could all very well be Unsolved Puzzle. We could all very well be Endy.

-Grey

[Bulbasaur4]

XD XD XD... *sees Mew's flying fossilized dung form hit mr_pikachu, out of pure randomness* Poor pika...

Oh, and I like your logic. However, I am female and I believe endy = puzzle was male, thus ruling all females out. XD

*of course, all her words come out in eevee language*

[Greyfox]

Because boys never imitate girls... especially not online. Oh wait, look what I found in VirtualPlay's signature:

"I'm not really a girl, I just play one online." ~Me

Despite your well-formed rebuttal, cutely strange talking Eevee, I have disproven it with LOGIC!

-Grey

[Blademaster]

"Logic is like beauty - it's overrated, it's relative, and it is often overlooked because people are too blind to see it."

~Me

[Bulbasaur4]

;_; B-but I don't want to be him/her!! NYUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!


DARN YOU LOGIC! YOU ALWAYS FAIL ME!!!

*wonders what a loud, 'nyuuing' eevee sounds like*

[Mew Master]

*bounces off a confused Mr-Pikachu, richochettes off of Mystic_Clown in RPG, ends up tumbling off Lady Vulpix in PCG, before blasting towards Chris, who with his mighty UBBER-ADMIN POWERS knocks him back to ASB where he promptly whacks into Blade before sliding to a hault, back where he was*

Mekaleka high, meka hiney God I hate you soo much... @_@

Whoa *head stops spinning* Okay... my take.

The internet, in all it's wonderful obscurity, gives anyone the chance to be someone they're obviously not. For instance, I could be a 13 year old girl in Thialand with a well understood concept of the English Language. Only a few people could rebute that because only a few have ever seen any actual pictures of me. And hey those coulda been faked, so only like.... 3-4 people on TPM have ever seen me via Webcam or in Real life. So you all accept I am who I say I am.

Also, the ammount of greif that UP experiences is pretty much what all newbies to any Message Board get. To some degree we were just like UP/E when we got here. Very excited and hyperactive to the point of posting. Just like I kinda am still. I mean, for crying out loud when i'm not on work I just refresh the Who's Online to see Who's Online that's by extension involved with any of the other posts I make. Plus it helps me check with my popularity in RPG and Fan Fic... when I used to be a major poster in FF... looong time ago... before Bush's second term.

But you see, we all calmed down, got jobs and realized democracy is a pipe dream and all America is, is just a Federal Republic. Wait... what were we talking about again?

Oh-yeah. Nyu-ing Eevee: Euuuuuuuuuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee!

Because boys never imitate girls... especially not online.

Dude where have you been when the internet was created?! You do NOT play World of Warcraft do you? I can easily imitate a girl on that to the point that someone tried to flirt with me. Hell I wasn't even immitating a girl, I was in character. O.o

[Chris 2.1]

Hmmm

Puzzle and Endy are probably one and the same. It's Rapamon/Hero86 all over again. Puzzle has got off on the wrong foot in ASB so it makes sense for him to try it all again under a new alias. This time he'd know the rules and know what mistakes he made.

To be perfectly honest though I feel a lot of people in this forum have been increasingly cold to Puzzle. I stumbled upon people - for lack of a better word - ripping the piss out of him in some of our collective topics and for what? For being new, young and inexpirienced. These are topics he's probably going to visit himself, and to find members (the older, more mature members of the community I regretfully add) laughing about him.

Let's say it is a young, naive kid. What impression is he going to get? He's going to assume one mistake leads to constant ridicule and lack of respect from ASB peers.

Ok the guy was a bit irritating. But he wasn't like Rapamon2, who seemed to wage a PM war against me and Dan when we put our foot down. He didn't cheat, he was pretty nice really, just a bit confused.

If it turns out to be some sweaty 20something year old then I have no problem laughing at them, because they could do with something else to do.

Anyway can we all just try to show a bit of respect to anybody that comes into ASB, not just friends, or friends of friends. That would make my weekend if we could abide by that.

[Mew Master]

I showed respect to BM... which is why I whacked into his head after Chris thwacked me back here <-<.

Although yes. We were kinda cold to UP, due to the age difference and how he was typing... Yes it was annoying. Was he a bad guy, no.

[DarkestLight]

Yeah >>

Even though that 20-something crack burns, Chris (¬¬)===---|vv|...:ulls out meat tenderizer...::

I'm a goof-off by nature-a successful goof-off, but a goof-off nonetheless. I just like me Pokemon and computer time just as much as anyone here. And yes, some people were colder than icebergs to Puzzle-and that really didn't help him. Yeah the erratic triple posting in topics were annoying-but in the short time he was here, he did try to get better.

Often look forward to "newbies " though. They kinda are here to remind us why we post here, to create a community...not a closed off society.

:eers at the cropolite:: I'm so not saying the chant, I dun even wanna know what I'd come out to be...

[Bulbasaur4]

^^ I was completely nice to him in RPG when he bumped his topic in RPG and one of our members even helped him make his RPG better. I didn't mind his tendency to post a lot or write slightly incoherently.

The only thing that really bothered me was what he did in Fan Art, because that was plain foolish and aggrivating... but again, it is one of my 'no no, you don't do that' areas. ^_^ Hopefully this Endy will be better.

[Chris 2.1]

I like that "lets create a community, not a closed off society thing"

[Mew Master]

Say it DL,... SAAAAY IIIIIT!

[DarkestLight]

NO! I REFUSE! Though I bet its almost as addicting as that danged Bulbasaur song x_x.

Chris: The more you know... *Shine*

[Mew Master]

*scoots over towards DL chanting* Saaaay it. Saaaaay it. One of us. One of us.

[Chris 2.1]

If anyone was around in 2001 they might remember me as Lugia_Master2K1. Give me a break guys I was 13 -_-;; From there I became Lugia_Master2K2 (see the pattern?), Shinymarill, Kecleon (Serebii forums only), Brit Chris, and finally Chris 2.0.

Geez.

[Pichu Luver]

I think I rememeber you Charles. I always notice the odd names. Heh ^^''' I think it was because of the Ryu. Wondered what that was . . .

If anyone was around in 2001 they might remember me as Lugia_Master2K1. Give me a break guys I was 13 -_-;;

That was you?!? O.o *mind is boggled* I don't really remember where you posted, I just remember your user name cause I thought it was odd. ^^''' *continues to be boggled* I was around in 2001 (joined in March) as Pichu Luver then I kinda left after a few years but browsed around and retuned as Twilight Lune. XD I joined ASB for probably one of the shortish times ever, disappeared again and came back as Asayake and now River. Lol.

[Greyfox]

I'll jump on this bandwagon and display my many legions of usernames as well, I s'pose...

• Greyfox10584
  • The original name - Greyfox because I liked it, and 10584 because "Greyfox" by itself was apparently already registered, and 10584 was already tacked onto my AIM handle at the time (Viper10584).
• Greyfox500
  • Boards got hacked, and many usernames were deleted (including my own) temporarily. I created this account to use until the boards came back to order. 500 was my number back in older, far more archaic message forums.
• Greyfox
  • Registered a new handle after about a year because I wasn't fond of the numbers. Had the admins demod my old account, then remod me under this alias. Eventually I got tired of the handle though, and went back to--
• Greyfox10584
• But then, the boards upgraded and we all got access to "custom usernames". I had several at this point, including, but not limited to:
  • Arbiter
  • The Arbiter
  • arbiter, the
  • Blank
  • Ages
  • The LIFe
• Then I left for awhile until coming back to the new boards as my original handle, Greyfox10584.
• The Arbiter
  • Changed to this after making a request - entire username was changed to "The Arbiter".
• drew
  • Wanted a change, and Chris changed my public display name to drew up until the boards switched over, and my name was yet again changed back.
• The Arbiter

Woo, quite the roller coaster ride.
