"What happened to YE and Karl?"
« on: January 23, 2004, 08:56:00 pm »
That's what everyone's been asking me all day.  Well, no more secrets, I think it's time to come out in the open with the cold, hard truth.


Last night, the continent of Australia was struck by a large meteorite.

Apparently, the servers holding each of the Aussie player's times pages were instantly incinerated (presumably, along with their bodies).  There is currently a desperate search being conducted for any surviving backup times pages.  Please, if you have any info on where we could find them, contact me or Youse as soon as humanly possible.

Oh, and, I'm sure we'll really miss all of the Australians themselves, as well.  Especially Your Elit- erm, I mean, Karl Jo- no wait... Neo, yeah, Neo.  ...on second thought, nevermind.

Stupid fuckers, YE is such a @#%$ crybaby.

Apparently they did it because they wanted to see what the Elite looks like without Australians...I don't know, I consider them all gay now (Matt did it too, and I thought he was cool). I should move to some other place...anywhere but England.

Haha omg my rankings own ANYONES rankings.

I hold the pages to be updated on my own comp, so nobody but me can change the way how the update will come out.
I do all the changes. It's kinda what Wes used to do for GE.

Also it's cake to make their pages using old updates.

And.. Funky Buddha should probably be out anyway, having no proof etc, but I guess Matt doesn't see that since he's a fellow Aussie and such. Same deal as with the Dutch for GE right now.
sexy, this

...seems like it's called a "meteor" until it actually hits the surface of the planet or something.

So, i take it they're back up on the rankings now? I didn't lose any sleep...

Actually, no.  "Meteor" is the general term for space...uh, crap...such as asteroids, comets, orbiting pebbles/dust, etc...  It's only a meteorite when it strikes the planet.

*h5's Bizi*  But you got it in while I was writing, so you suck...or something.

It could mean death to the world if it were going to hit the planet, but otherwise, it's not any different from any other piece of space...uh, crap.

Yeah, the Meteor WOULD have meant total earth destruction... or at least the death of every living thing (So that Sephiroth could take all of the resultand Mako), except for the fact that that blue crap (a lot of life energy) significantly lessens the impact and saves it all (Defeating Safer-Seph., Calling the Holy Materia, etc.)

Yeah, and I can't wait for that suave Advent Children, but I wihs they didn't make them try to look so real.  I appreciated the pseudo-anime characters, not these human thuglike things.  Sephiroth doesn't look mean at all, he looks like a girl.

Okay, you guys are @#%$ gay.  Obviously @#%$ with rankings pages is the cool thing to do these days.. maybe I should change all my times to 0:01 just to be cool like all of you!

Why @#%$ with the rankings and remove the 2 best players for some reason unknown to most people then?  Its disrespectful to people that actually care about the ranks and to derek who spends money to keep the site up.  Just keep the ranks accurate ffs.. is that so hard to ask?

Meteroid = A space rock in outer space
Meteor = A space rock in the Earth's atmophere
Meteorite = A space rock that is resting on the Earth's surface

Don't you think you disrespected the elite more than us by claiming the 113? What the hell are you trying to get at? You want us to admit that we disrespected the elite? OK. I admit it. Will you shut up and go back to FFA or General now?

There's no doubt Come dissed the ranking when he claimed 1:13 and called everyone asshats for believing it (:b ), but you can't use that as a justification for what the Aussies did.  

Obviously, Come cares about the rankings now, so don't dig up what happened half a year ago and try to use it against him.

Meteoroids are just pieces of debris that fly around in our solar solar system.  Meteors enter our atmosphere but are disintegrated by the gases etc., and meteorites are any debris that strike the Earth's surface.  It's because of our atmosphere that we're not covered in craters like the moon.  They say that a meteorite around 10 km in diameter destroyed the realm of the dinosaurs, and that's how big it would have to be destroy the entire Earth.  Of course, it all depends on where it hits (ocean, land etc.).  Small meteorites have little or no effect and there hasn't been a single report of one of them killing a person.

I didn't know till a few weeks ago either, Bizi :p

In any case...don't say "what the Aussies did", say "what Matt, Ryan, Greg and Karl did". Because...Moore, Genisics and me aren't gay.

I think that one of the rankings moderators should put up a new page with Karl's times, just so the Elite maintains its integrity of having the true World Records.

The same could be done for Shade, with his times filled in where proof exists and with N/A where it doesn't.

Except that Shade created a fake player and moved him up the ranks. So he is banned. Plus you have got lots of Karl's times wrong.

I took them from the most recent rankings update.

So don't blame me, blame the 21 pages of player times.

And didn't NGamer already affirm that Cetu's IP matched no one including Shade?
