The Periodical That Is Too Sexy For Its Shirt, Among Other Things
Jan 21st, 2010 • Issue 72 • Yorkshire-style news
Awards of the Year race thrillingly poised
In the most prestigious award of the lot, Writer of the Year, the race for second place behind prolific funny factory and champion-elect Hype is neck and neck between apparently-no-longer-hirsute TKF fan-club president and feature-machine Guildy and low-profile but high-quality-output, er, feature-machine Sog1970. But wait! There's still a chance they could get caught by the chasing pack of little-known and modest Scouser Mhaille, hetero macho-man Orian57, antipodean canine PuppyOnTheRadio and none-more-metal mosher Monika. Oh, and some other chancers have been nommed without polling a single vote (including DrStrange, who is currently looking likely to become the first Uncyclopedian ever to win WotM twice, but hasn't carried that form over to WotY - odd). Meanwhile, over at PotY, the race for second place behind Sonje is even closer, with both Modus and some n00b polling a creditable one nom but no votes each! Who will pull ahead by the end of the month? It's a competition you just can't keep your eyes off! Disappointingly, the UotY vote lets the side down, with seemingly a boring old race for first place between Belgian one-man categorisation whirlwind, maintenance addict, broken thing fixer, BUTT POOP!!! junkie and footwear-as-handwear exponent Socky and handsome English admin who wrote this article and is not in the least bit biased UU. The apparent scramble to be runner-up to whichever of these two is runner-up is far more interesting, as non-stop wikifixer MadMax goes up against Welsh Rarebit RabbiTechno, not-Yorkshire-enough admin Mordillo, vowel-free-zone Mnbvcxz and Moterfucking Nigger Lover Roman Dog Bird. Damned with the faint praise of a nom with no votes in this category are the pants bomber, talk page king FU Spang, human non-sequitur generator Modus and absent but deadly hockey nut Gerry. And finally, over where it's really at, the NotD cockfight is almost impossible to call! Will plucky outsider RC hold off the challenge of Apple, Apples and Maddie's life? The tension is quite literally unbearable! But remember kids: whoever "wins", we're all still losers. And now, your not-at-all-struggling-for-material Signpost brings you... Horoscopes!
For the rest of this week's horoscopes in full, see the horoscopes page, obviously. |

Manual hand-typed thanks (to show sincerity)[edit source]
I know this is a bit late but thanks for voting for my article and helping me with it. It wouldn't have taken the direction that it had if it weren't for your pee. Unfortunately, you don't get a template. ~ 16:48, Jan 24, 2010
- Thanks, I'm glad I was a help. And I suppose I can forgive the lack of a thank-you template, but just this one time. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:39, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
You still alive?[edit source]
Work work work! • • • • 23:53 • Sunday, 24-01-2010
- Yes, I'm still alive. And yes, I've started working. Not too much progress yet, but it's a start. It's going to be a while, though: I'm, like, mad busy, so yeah. Also, I'm nearly done with an article on Opeth I've saved on a word document, so I might want to just get that out of the way first. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:41, January 25, 2010 (UTC)
Favre Fnord[edit source]
Thanks for the vote on the unexpected nom. When you said "only questin is whether he'll be back next year" did you mean in relation to the article saying "former Viking's quarterback"? If so I'll change that part, if it's confusing to some people. It was meant to mean that he's dead, so he's the former. You know what, I'm gonna change it anyway, it could confuse. Thanks for providing the couch for my session, bill me the standard fee. Aleister in Chains 00:38 27 Jan. MMX
- That's a good point, maybe I'll try and work it in. The word "former" as the first word in the article really didn't work, so I took it out, and even if you didn't mean to make that point that's how my laser-like pointed-in-the-wrong-direction mind took it, so actually, thanks again!

Continuing Absence Of Certain Users Forces Other Users To Do Things
Also bravely stepping into the "ban magnet" position created by the continuing and lamented absence of hyperactive loon Cajek is, well, a plethora of users. Admins, deprived of their favourite joke-ban target, have taken to joke banning anyone in an attempt to get their fix. Even those devoted to doing only good, just and true works have recently been targeted; and as if to prove this very statement, some power-crazed asshole went and joke banned Socky, RabbiTechno and Optimuschris as soon as he'd written this sentence. Elsewhere, ChiefjusticeDS has been filling the gap left by the absence of someone's enthusiasm for anything pee-related right at the moment by looking after the pee list, taking over as the person with the most in-depth reviews, reviewing everyone else's reviews, and generally not being lazy about it all. At the same time, the continuing absence of the yellow and black sig of Gerrycheevers has forced grumbling British curmudgeon UU to return to the Wiki's only newspaper, the UnSignpost, churning out issues that are, let's be honest, mere placeholders until Gerry gets his arse back here and writes something worth reading. YOU HEAR ME GERRY? GET THE FUCK BACK HERE NOW DAMMIT!Rumours that, in the relative absence of Orian57, Roman Dog Bird will take over the position of "token gay" are unconfirmed at the time of going to press. And finally, in the absence of enough content to make this issue balance out nicely, the UnSignpost is once again resorting to using blatant filler for the first time this year. Shameless, that's what it is. Complain to someone - it's the only way they'll learn. |

So I watched your video[edit source]
And at the start I was like, oh god. Guildy is calling someone out on the internet. About his behaviour on a humour wiki. But then, you started singing pop music to the whole world. And I laughed. IronLung 20:50, January 29, 2010 (UTC)
- I was more like - "Beard at 17 (?) ? What were you thinking! But then you started singing to the world and I chocked. ~ 20:58, January 29, 2010 (UTC)
- I got all the way up to the part where the video started (then I got bored and switched to videos of kittens falling asleep). If memory serves Guildy's vid had some dork in a closet. If that isn't the film equivalent of a Freudian slip, I don't know what is. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 21:08, January 29, 2010 (UTC)

The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.
Feb 4th, 2010 • Issue 74 • Ain't It Uncool? News!
Spang Archives Talkpage; End of World Expected Imminently
Award Winners Speak Exclusively to UnSignpost Well, there you go folks, looks like the "... of the Year" award voting is done and dusted for another year. Thanks to all who voted; without you, the admins would probably have less to do, which would obviously be dangerous. Anyway, that aside, your ever-topical Unsignpost went and mugged the various winners for comments on their various wins. Several of them, of course, have already made their feelings clear to those who voted for them by way of the traditional thanks templates. Apart from UU, because he's a lazy ass. Or because he's busy writing this. Whichever. Anyway again, for the benefit of those who didn't vote for the winners, and don't watch their talk pages, here's what they had to say: Runaway WotY Hype said: "Thanks, you guys!! If you'll permit me to be dead serious for the first time ever on the wiki, this really is an honor, and it's pretty damn touching that so many people came out in support of my work. Whew. Being serious felt weird. I feel... strange. BALLS BALLS PENIS COCK. Ah... there's the stuff!" He then went off to write another My Sojourn spin-off. Even more runaway PotY Sonje said: "Thank you, I intend to return as soon as I can. I am currently in Africa with very limited internet access. I'll try to time my return to co-incide with the Oscars so that I can get some pointers for my acceptance speech." Admittedly, that was before we asked her for a comment, but then, she is in Africa with limited internet access. Joint UotY Socky channeled Churchill to say: "*scrapes throat* Ahem! I would like to say to the community as I would say to anyone who joined this website: Uncyclopedia has nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory. Victory at all costs — Victory in spite of all error — Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival. … That seems to be the wrong Churchill speech. Okay, I'll give it another try. *scrapes throat again* The gratitude of every home throughout the world, except in the abodes of the guilty, goes out to the British airmen and Belgian spies who, undaunted by odds, unwearied in their constant challenge and mortal danger, are turning the tide of the Wiki War by their prowess and by their devotion. Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to two people. And so on and so on… Woot! Woot!" Long-winded bugger. And other joint UotY UU said: "wow, Socky's already left me needing a lot of filler for the right panel, so I'll keep this shortish. First, it's good to see someone who isn't an admin get their hands on this award, and Socky's hard work deserves recognition. Second, it's great to have my complete lack of a life recognised in this way. Third, did someone say Spang's archived his talk page? What the fuck's that all about?." Oh, and Dr. Skullthumper was UGotY, but that was a foregone conclusion anyway. He didn't seem to have any comment of his own to make, so TKF hopped in to the breach with "I call the award a "fascist disgrace" and "move to permanently disbar Mike Socia, that ape from Lighting who made my mole visible to all of the goddamn world watching the ceremony."" Which about wraps it all up, I hope. |

Just about this...[edit source]
I like this article - not as a featureable thingy but just as I found the whole stealing intellectual copyright from a parody source a ludicrous concept, and I used the self reference as I felt the humour would be more effective if I used a parody of a recognisable thing as one of the elements. The assumption here is that people who are reading an article on Uncyclopedia would find the parody of Uncyclopedia more approachable than a parody of College humour or Mad TV, to site the two real life examples that I've used. Is there anything that you feel could be added to this in order to improve it? (Other than more archive6 references of course.) Pup
- Well, more Rosenkrantinpants references aside, your article is fine how it is, beyond the inherent problem of the fact that it's very self-referential and therefore probably not right for the front page. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:35, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

New way to win awards, impress friends, crush rivals!
Yes, that's right, The Article Whisperer is a competition that gives you the ideas to get you started, all you need to do is supply the funny. What could be easier? Well, since you ask, perhaps judging it could? Max is also looking for at least 4 more opinionated types, unafraid of passing withering judgement on their peers. If you're interested in judging or entering, or if you have a good idea that would elevate this competition from being a damn good idea to a colossally awesome one, let MadMax know either on his talk page, or on the article's talk page. For those who want to selflessly improve the wiki while crushing all around them under the steel wheels of their genius, there can be no finer opportunity! General news round-up
Mordillo nearly went mad attempting to feature all articles tied for tenth place in the top 10 of last year. And then spent the rest of this month to date patiently fielding questions about how long the rest of the featuring was going to take, and when normal featuring would resume. POTR did his best to help. When not asked for a quote, Mordillo said "FUCK YOU VERY MUCH AND SEE YOU IN 2011". We think he's just talking about the top 10, and not about taking a 10 month hiatus. That is, we hope so. A recent VFD nomination ended in a deletion marathon, as MrN and RDB spent 2 hours removing every last trace of the notorious Game:Page. Apart from the traces Mordillo deleted, that is. And the redirects to it that UU took care of, come to think of it. But still, all told, an impressive act of mass carnage only made more awesome by the fact that they somehow managed to delete Socky's userpage at one point during the proceedings. MrN claims "Both RDB and me still have sore huffing fingers you know". |

Understanding of the universe is shattered; Creation as we know it is defunct
One of the most controversial elements of religious understanding has been the answer to the question "How did we get here?" This has often been seen in the debate that has been long held between Creationists and Evolutionists. Now that Imperial Colonisation is back on its feet, under the able guidance of IC Buccaneer Admiral Why?, they are educating the masses on this as we speak. "The article had been befouled by some evil doers, probably French or Spanish or Americans or worse. We are diligently researching and writing to bring the article in line with the Truth." stated Buccaneer Admiral Why?. A dramatic re-write is in process, as Why? has all his seamen working towards the noble goal of indoctrinating the masses in Creationist theory. After some false starts involving a banana and a jar of peanut butter, the recreation of creationism is being created. "The colonized article will show how the Empire has the right and duty to colonize everywhere by any methods available, and that anything we do is God's will. We will finish it by Saturday, 20 of February, or by Saturday, 27 of February, depending upon how long it takes us to colonize the natives. Anyone who wishes to apply to join our noble effort may do so at Uncyclopedia:Imperial Colonization." Why? stated in closing. Darwin awards - Uncyclopedia Stylie
Fortunately he showed the resilience that 10 year olds have when they are in the middle of doing something completely idiotic, and continued to trawl through people's talk pages, undo their edits, and generally be a dick. MrN9000, understanding the right balance of politeness and harshness, gave I LIKE PIE!!! a friendly message on his talk page, with a 1 week ban to support the severity of his words. Undeterred, I LIKE PIE!!! later returned. 1 week and 35 minutes after his previous ban, MrN repeated his previous words to the young man, along with a further 1 week ban. Thankfully, it appears that I LIKE PIE!!! took MrN's words to heart, as he managed to last a further 30 minutes after this second ban before he ran afoul of Roman Dog Bird, who in true RDB style demonstrated what an infinite ban actually means. When hard-hitting journalists pressed for details relating to the banning of this pre-pubescent pestilence, MrN replied "What kinda a journalist are you man!?!" Congratulations, I LIKE PIE!!!, for becoming the inaugural Uncyclopedia Darwin award winner, and removing yourself from the meme pool that we all enjoy. |

Games, games and more games! We have more games then you can poke a stick at!
Is the games namespace 99.9% shit was the question elegantly asked by OptyC recently. A simple question that has sparked a storm in a teacup. While Uncyclopedia is, undoubtably, the pinnacle of fine parody, it has been suggested the this particular poor cousin of the Main space has been allowed to fall into disrepair and disrepute due to the influx of poorly crafted content. In the words of one editor Delete it. It's cruft and I'm not even sure if it qualifies as a parody namespace of anything on Wikipedia. However, despite the lack of quality content, a significant portion of users have requested that it remain in play, however it be improved by having a little tender loving care given to it, along with a more rigid amount of cruft huffing. As such, it is with open arms we welcome the inclusion into this realm of the new moderator of the Games namespace OptyC, who will be referred to going forward as the Game Master. Upon the announcement of this singularly spectacular accolade, Optyc's first words were Maybe I shoulda just kept my mouth shut, eh? Although much respect must be levelled his way at the way he has taken to his new role with much gusto, winnowing through the chaff to find the kernels of wheat available in there. For more information on these developments, visit Forum:The Games namespace. It's Alive!
A new blow to the "democrats"/"liberals"/"whiny bitches" of Uncyclopedia, opposing the disputed hereditary law. Senior member of the non existent Cabal and editor-in-chief-in-absentia of this newspaper, UU has announced the birth of heiress to the throne, also known as UUette. UUette was reportedly born holding a scepter and a miniature ban hammer, wearing a crown and QVFD grade galoshes and waving frantically at the hysterical cheering masses. The non existent cabal promptly announced a reserved seat for UUette in the VFS round of 2026 as well as the prestigious position of "Noob of the Month". A shrouded spokesperson for the Cabal noted that "it would have been important for the Cabal, were it to exist, that the existing Cabal dynasty, especially one coming from such a quality genetic specimen such as UU, shall continue without disturbance. The Cabal is greatly pleased with UU and Mrs. UU for bolstering its numbers for the Sporadic demonstration of support were noted around the Uncyclopedia realm, as supporters of the Cabal were seen with "DEAR UUette IS GREAT" and "ALL HAIL THE HEIR APPARENT" signs. So called "democratic"/"liberals"/"whiny bitches" protests were dealt with swiftly and efficiently. And from all of us in the UnSignpost here is one big congratulations UU, may your daughter have huge...errr..tracks of land. |

Just wanted to let you know that I had already decided last month to nom and vote for Puppy for UotM for this month. I'd really like to see both of you get it.

- Honestly, I'm not trying to deprecate myself. I didn't give the award back, after all. :-D But I did feel a little guilty because I won it for a month where I contributed less than I did in other months.

Controversy over Uncyclopedian leads journalist to public outcry
The "of the Month" nominations and celebrations have been marred recently by drama circulating in forums, talk pages and on vote pages in various areas. Fortunately, whenever and wherever a drama has reared its ugly head an Unsignpost reporter has been there to cover it. Why do I need to provide this? is now experiencing his second week of not having been nominated for anything. After mentioning to a respected editor that he had been nominated for at least one award for almost every day he had been part of the Uncyclopedia community, he bemoaned the fact that he had not been nominated for anything this month. "I've been nommed for something EVERY SINGLE DAY of the five months I've been here--until this month. I'm not nommed for anything. It's pretty depressing, really." Why? complained As a result of this complaining, Why? was then nominated for an award that had been more respected in the breach then in the observance - to paraphrase the bard - Nomination of the Month. When, after a series of events, Roman Dog Bird felt obliged to nominate Aleister in Chains' Nomination for NOTM of PuppyOnTheRadio's nomination for NOTM of Why do I need to provide this?'s nomination of PuppyOnTheRadio for UGotM, he simply stated "This is a stupid award." Meanwhile, at UotM, discussion over the number of awards given out led to an obvious discussion about the worth of RotM and UotM, which of course led, as all conversational roads do, to the hugely popular and debatably talented Dan Brown, not to be confused with Dan Kwon, as we aren't quite sure who he is. The debate got unexpectedly heated when a talented and handsome editor suggested that another less talented editor should perform carnal and bestial acts with random household appliances. Remember to cast your vote in AotM, PotM, RotM, NotM and WotM, or nominate the uncyc member that has impressed you most in these areas. And of course, always remember Mordillo's words, "This one is for people who made Uncyclopedia better by cleaning up shop, helping people and allow Uncyclopedia to wobble around without falling over." Vote today. Or tomorrow - depending on if you have the time.
And with the current vote count standing at 6 in favour, and with few regularly active sysops left to vote, it looks like the chances are that there will be new sysops by the end of this month - so time to start deciding who you're gonna nominate! Who will be the next to have a thousand IPs ask them on their talkpage why they deleted their useless little one-line stub? Stay tuned to find out? |

Upsilon Sigma Sigma[edit source]
Hey Guildy, I'm just going around trying to drum up support for a new group I'm trying to get going. I've been sitting here, thinking to myself, "gee, Uncyclopedia has a lot of stuff, a legal department, a political party, and an assortment of other great things, but it doesn't have a fraternity." I also noticed that the top 50 wanted articles list hasn't changed in over a year. Soooooo, I was wondering if perhaps you'd like to join me and potentially others in the 1st Uncyclopedia fraternity, ΥΣΣ, Upsilon Sigma Sigma, a collaborative an independent organization with the aim of writing exclusively requested articles. Also, I just want to point out that this isn't meant to be a competition with Der Unwehr, but rather perhaps a sister project. I feel Der Unwehr is more of a rewritting project than a creation project, and I feel there's a need to create quality articles from the top 50 wanted list since most of those articles have been huffed. Anyways, pop on by the page, if it's something you're interested in, just let me know. -- 16:54 9 Mar, 2010

If there's anything you'd like me to do, you know where to find me. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:50, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Mar 11th, 2010 • Issue 79 • Making the New York Times look shabby since 2008
Investigative journalist looks in to the cabal; Shocking discovery Many veiled references have been made to this cabal, however until now there has been no real investigative attempts to uncover the shocking truth about the cabal. However, despite this, one plucky rookie journalist has decided that the truth must be free, and an investigation into the cabal has been undertaken. Investigating this it appears that the rumours relating to a cabal have come from numerous sources. In investigating this there were a number of dead ends, including pages that appear to have been deleted with no history. One source has come forward to expose the truth about the cabal. Under threat of repercussion, this source has been asked to be known simply as Deep Throat. Upon interviewing this source the following shocking truth has been discovered! There is no cabal.
Any rumours about a supposed cabal are completely untrue. Any suggested sources are in fact fictional and have no veracity behind them. There is no shadowy, mysterious force guiding Uncyclopedia. As I, as a respected journalist, have now been made well aware of the non-existence of this cabal, I am now comfortable to retire my journalistic career. I will shortly be taking a long trip to a very remote location where there is no phone or internet access and will choose to never write again. I may even go to Antarctica. But most importantly, there is not now, nor never has been, a cabal.A useful HowTo? does not compute!
If there were a Cabal (which, as the above article clearly establishes beyond doubt, there isn't), it would encourage you to read it and never write a bad UnNews again. |

The Newspaper That Replaces Analysis With Flashy Graphics!
Mar 18th, 2010 • Issue 80 • Hold the line! News isn't always on time!
VFS: it begins
Leading the popular vote at present is long-serving poopsmith and kvetcher RabbiTechno, gaining a seemingly unassailable lead by being helpful, friendly and competent, and by promising to bake cakes for all who vote for him - a ploy which may well have snared the support of more than just the odd swing voter. In a comfortable position just behind the Rabbi is lengthily-monikered Belgian workhorse Sockpuppet of an unregistered user, the joint Uncyclopedian of the Year for 2009, who seems to be gathering followers by being helpful, competent, friendly, and doing loads and loads of stuff. This cunning stratagem has obviously endeared him to the denizens of this wiki, who seem to be propelling him towards having his own banstick. But hold on, who's this coming up stealthily behind Socky? Why, it's pee review supremo and scourge of vandals everywhere ChiefjusticeDS! The Chief is steadily accumulating backers through the cunning tactic of being competent, helpful and friendly. He also rules PEEING with an iron fist, and spends inordinate amounts of time cleaning and tidying up the place, facts that have led to him coming within striking distance of the leaders in what appears to be a three-horse race. One thing is clear from this - all 3 of the most popular candidates appear to be helpful and friendly, which this newspaper finds unacceptable - where is the next Famine going to come from? where will we find an admin willing to infiban users and delete all their articles just for looking at someone the wrong way, or for being Kip the Dip? Also nominated, and receiving some support are current Writer of the Year and greatest person in the history of all things ever Hyperbole, diplomat by Uncyc appointment to all religions Optimuschris, canine broadcaster and damn fine journalist PuppyOnTheRadio, allcaps-named VFD machine SPIKE, confirmed female on the internets Zana Dark, easy-to-spell feature-machine Guildensternenstein and jaded old-timer Necropaxx. Other people have been nominated without recording a score as yet, but as this article is already long enough to have the editor wondering how many filler boxes he can dream up for the right-side panel this week, they just appear as a brief list: Mnbvcxz, Cajek, Gerrycheevers, Syndrome, The Woodburninator, Why do I need to provide this?, Charitwo and some bloke called Mhaille. Will any of them pick up a sympathy vote before the end of voting round 2? Positions vacant.

VFS reaches third and final round, Uncyclopedians bored to tears
Once again, the Rabbi appears to be in pole position, and there are rumours that Mordillo is already preparing him a traditional Jewish banstick, such is his current lead. Meanwhile, Sock and Chief are neck-and-neck for the second slot, polling three votes each currently. When he interviewed himself for this article, lazy journalist UU exclusively told us: "this reflects well on the site - we have three great, very strong candidates, any and all of whom would do a great job if opped. And a number of those who didn't make it to round 3 will probably make a much stronger showing next time. If there is a next time." All that remains now is to see how the final few days affect the vote, and who finally gets the supreme honour of being able to go delete every single page of shitloads of crappy games that have been nommed on VFD, and the like. Joins us next week for the "From Our Logs" new admin special, when we analyse their first bans, and watch as these new admins mercilessly ban the unlucky loser and abuse their new powers flagrantly. Hopefully. Top 5 Of-The-Months Become 90% Cheesier
Well known and completely badass user CheddarBBQ, known for his increasing his own self-image, and for being one of the coolest guys ever, has now set a record by being nommed for all four "big" nominations in the same month. Even more impressive, he has been nommed for these four without doing much of anything deserving of awards (besides the aforementioned alleged coolness and/or badassedness). The always tasty Eyetallyan snackfood has been able to hold tightly to last place in each one of these all month. When asked about his newfound record, the great man/food had this to say: "I always knew I was special. The bag of cheese curls that I referred to as "Mommy" for 15 years would tell me so on a regular basis. Also, suck it bitchez." Of course the amazing record-breaker would think well of himself, so we went elsewhere, to question his adopted son, Momo. When asked about the excitement over the record, Momo claimed, "Papa De La Rosa is, like, the greatest dad ever, I used to have so much fun with him when I was little. Ya know, he once left me inside an oven when I was a baby, went for a beer and got me out the following morning. That was fun, I'm tellin' ya. And when I was 4, he left me in an amusement park, went for a beer and came to pick me up a whole week later. I spent that week with that nice guy who kept touching my ass.. Good times.. When I was 7, he took me for a beer. And by the age of 14, we were running our small liquor-smuggling business.. Oh yeah, he's a great guy." Curiously, his comment did not much relate to the matter at hand, yet it was deemed necessary to include it anyway. It appears to be abundantly clear that Cheddar is a marvel of a man whom we can all look up to. In other news, it appears that Don Chedds is about to set another record by being the first Uncyclopedian to drastically lose all five major awards in one month. It appears to be abundantly clear that Cheddar is a marvel of a man whom we can all look up to. Here's to you, CheddarBBQ. Oh yeah, and some other people had something to do with it as well. Note: The writer of this article has decided that a fact check as to whether or not either of these are true records would be unnecessary. |

Upsilon Sigma Sigma March Newsletter [edit source]
March's collaboration on Nintendo, our first as a group went really well. You can drift on over to check it out in mainspace. Now onto frat business and stuff. First of all, we need to determine as a group a few things in terms of our monthly collaboration; will it really be a 'monthly' collab, or should we not stick to such a rigid timeframe? Secondly, we need to figure out how we're going to determine future collab projects. Currently we're voting on April's project, but we need to decide if we're going to vote at the end of each month for the following month's project, or if we're going to adopt a rolling queue like IC currently has. I'm leaning more towards the rolling queue idea, but I'd like to get a consensus on the subject. In order to vote on this, go here. I would like to take the time to point out that we are not IC; in fact we're kind of the opposite, whereas they take crap and turn it into slightly better crap, we create the crap that people want the most. Along these lines, any member of the frat is encouraged to contribute to each months collab, not matter how big or small. There aren't really any rules in terms of how we tackle these collabs, so the structure will kind of just spring up.
Ok, the second part of the frat of course is the individual creation of pages from the requested articles list. None of us, myself included, have called dibs on, started, or created any of these pages. I want to stress that this is just as an important part of our group as the monthly collaboration. I hope to make an individual article of my own in April from the list, and I encourage all of you to do the same.
Third, the lesser third pillar of our group, pee reviewing. I would just encourage you guys if you feel like it to go ahead and do an in-depth pee review or two in April.
Well, I think the start of Upsilon Sigma Sigma has gone rather well considering most groups don't get off the ground too well here, and it's all thanks to Aleister in Chains and Pelargonium, who both contributed to Nintendo. Without them, I feel the group wouldn't have gone very far, so please pop over to Frat Bro of the Month at some point and give them a shout out. Also, please feel free to browse the various sections of the group (I spent a bunch of time creating the frat page), and be sure to check the news tab from time to time, I'll be updating that regularly. I'm really looking forward to working with you all in the coming months in making some quality requested articles! -- 22:12 EST 29 March, 2010

The Periodical That Is Too Sexy For Its Shirt, Among Other Things
Apr 1st, 2010 • Issue 82 • You'd better watch out, you'd better beware: if any news happens, the Signpost will be there
VFS Finishes, New Admins Unleashed, UnSignpost already struggling for material for next week
What does this mean? Well, it means there are now two more Brits armed with bansticks loose on the wiki. Their chirpy, endearing optimism and approachability has already been replaced by the dead-eyed stare and world-weary cynicism required by sysophood, and their friends on the wiki have all turned into suck-ups looking for joke bans. When asked for comments, the Rabbi told us: "I'm willing to accept bribes for huffing articles, banning users, replacing pages with goatse and so on and plan to become as corrupt as possible in as short a time as possible". He also said, when accused of being a "Big Tough Admin Guy": ""Big" - indisputably, but it's all fat; "Tough" - only if you mean chewy; "Admin" - yes, can't argue with that one; "Guy" - only until I've saved enough for the operation". Chief hadn't commented at the time of going to press, so we made something up: "I'm going to ban everyone, I have judged this wiki, and found it wanting. All must pay", he might have said. Of course, this situation also means the long-overdue return of the wildly popular Votes for Sandwiches. Already, 3 bread-based snacks have been suggested, and voting is expected to be fierce. Finally, it also means that the UnSignpost, which has leaned heavily on VFS for Frat party; Bring your own kegger Finally the fraternal (and sisternal) instincts of Uncyclopedia's finest minds have a place that they can call their own. ΥΣΣ, otherwise more easily pronounceably known as Upsilon Sigma Sigma, has been founded in the cellar of one of our newest members, who has already earned the level of respect and admiration that many of our members feel. Skinfan13 has taken the initiative of an entrepreneur and put this together with nothing but a jovial spirit and a little bit of random whoring on an excessive amount of member's talk pages.
In their own charter, they claim that they stand for three thing, being Humor, Honor and Hubris, even if they are unable to spell two of them in English. Already boasting membership of some of the finest that Uncyclopedia has to offer, including the founder of Der Unwehr and its highest point holding member, it is focused on creating one quality article per month via collaboration. However, rather than covering the same ground so amply covered by Imperial Colonization, it chooses to take its inspiration from one of most neglected sources, Wanted Pages. However, not content to simply cater to those who like to work together on articles, they also have another focus in their writing sights - Requested Articles. And the third major focus is the betterment of articles by non members through their unstinting work on Pee Review. While this is still in it's infancy the fraternity/sisternity is looking for For those who are after more information, feel free to check out ΥΣΣ today. Or tomorrow, if that works better for you. The bar is always open, although not always stocked. |

I see you mostly stick to different things in your writing than what I usually have in mind - but if you want to try out a different method some time, come over and have a ride at SoS. First time we talked about it, you disagreed on the usefulness of the idea (based on your feeling that the writer needs to do all the work and get all the credit) but I hold to my view that SoS is a great way to collaborate - especially when you don't need to collaborate on any one article, but need just to fit your article in the general idea, and there are many ways to do that. So, read the shit and I hope you decide to help out every once in a while. Although you are a feature engine on your own. -- Style Guide 14:39, April 8, 2010 (UTC)

The Newspaper With Words n' Shit!
Apr 8th, 2010 • Issue 83 • News even an Uncyclopedian can understand![1]
We deliver on our promises As stated in last weeks edition of the USP, VFS is over, and we've run out of material to be able to fill this particular edition. Discussion about what to include in here has been vast and varied. Sockpuppet of an unregistered user suggested we write an article about how it's his birthday today, but how are we going to be able to write an entire article about his birthday? Especially when the bastard hasn't invited us to his party or shared any of his cake with us. Other suggestions included writing the value of π to the first 1,000 digits, or planting drugs on an admin. As none of the regular writers are able to do anything mathematical, and we attempted to plant drugs on an admin, but they mysteriously disappeared before we could discover them, those options were excluded. So instead we have gone back to suggestions for what we were going to do for the April Fool's day issue, where EMC suggested we have an article which simply showed someone being hit in the face with a pie. Working on the assumption that a picture is worth one thousand words, this seems to incorporate elements from most of the ideas we have had so far. If you are interested in helping to Spinning some new yarns
Intrigued, your ever-alert UnSignpost asked the project's founder, Multiliteralist, for some quotes, preferably lengthy ones for the sake of padding. He responded: "You like the truth, don't you? But you don't like it the way it is now? Join us." Which is all well and good, but doesn't exactly fill this article out anything like enough. Fortunately, he added: "Our door is open for anyone with - in the words of Sir Humphrey Appleby - some moral flexibility." That was slightly more helpful for our purposes. Fortunately, however, he followed that up with: "Early this year, I felt something was missing in the world. That something was

UnSignpost 15/4/10 - Yet another on time delivery.[edit source]
The Newspaper That Contains Neither News Nor Paper.
Apr 15th, 2010 • Issue 84 • News? Where we're going, we don't need... News...
Something Scary This Way "Comes"
A recent infestation of glowing dildos has taken over the front page of Uncyclopedia. Many users were shocked on April 11th when they opened up their web browsers and were treated to bright green replicas of EugeneKay's penis. Everywhere. Even poor anti-Semite Mel Gibson couldn't escape the wrath of the glowing dick. And the reason for the Scream in Edvard Munch's famous painting was revealed - turns out to have been caused by a hoard of giant glowing EugeneKay penises - an understandable reaction. When asked to comment on the matter, users simply refused to acknowledge that they had seen the penises at all. "Well, I for one didn't notice anything. Glowing penii are so common around here that these particular examples of illuminated manhood really didn't make an impression..." said Aleister in Chains. HELPME had a different outlook on the whole matter: "of course I noticed, how couldn't I? They were everywhere!" he exclusively told our intrepid reporter. Random internet traffic took notice of the infestation as well, with 127.0.0.1 commenting" "Ballsack!!!11 alolololololololooll pasfsdkjfhaelkfjds PENIS PENIS PENIS." He was promptly banned. The infestation passed almost as quickly as it came and a sense of normalcy returned to the main page when the penises retreated into the dark and abysmal graveyard of unused image files. By April 13th, all traces of the Great Penis Invasion of April 11-13 2010 (as it is now being called) were gone. There are, however, unconfirmed reports that the menace still lingers close to the main page, just waiting to strike again soon. I See IC All At Sea
We didn't need to ask the outgoing Admiral for a comment, as he was falling over himself to give us plenty, so we randomly selected the following: "I'm anal for accuracy", he told us. Among other things. Anyway, if you want to follow in Why?'s footsteps, and those of his illustrious predecessors in charge of the Colonization project, you can sign up to be considered for the post here. If it helps, you may wear a nice hat (please provide your own hat). |

Marilyn[edit source]
I may come back to you for another request at some point soon (see Tim Burton talk page discussion on pee review) but for now: I've been doing some edits on the Marilyn Monroe page, and came across and added the pic on the bottom. Can you help identify the other three? My guess is Lana Turner, Jean Harlow, and Carole Lombard, but may be wrong on all but Harlow. Thanks. And feel free to come and play on the page too, we should have a top-notch page on Monroe and what's there could be a backbone or two. Al sans chains 21:48 29 4
- That's a nifty little photo there. Unfortunately, I'm no expert on fifties' starlets, so your guesses are as good as mine. Also, I've got one week and three final exams of school left, so perhaps after those I'll lend a hand (and start contributing more to the site in general again). —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:07, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

- Thank you. And I was thinking of making a director article myself (Stephen Chow) but I have no idea what to do for it. The only angle I can think to take is his terrible Chinese-English translations/subtitles, but that seems overdone already. Would you like a cookie, sir? 02:29,30April,2010

UnSignpost 1 May[edit source]
Because Uncyclopedia is no laughing matter.
April 22nd 1st May, 2010 • Issue 85 • Insert penis joke here
The launch of a new and exciting weekend edition. Maybe. "Where is my signpost?" was the cry heard from the world wide masses this week. "There should have been an issue on the 22nd and on the 29th, and nothing seems to have been done about it." Fear not, gentle reader, for the signpost will not go gentle into the good night. We have instead taken a brief hiatus for no reason that we could conceivably come up with, and now we are back in a blaze of glory. For those who are unaware of our proud history, the next issue, coming out this Thursday, will mark the (roughly) 2 year anniversary of the creation of the UnSignpost, the unperiodic periodical started by Dr. Skullthumper and Cajek. The good doctor, at the time of the first issue, was asked what his feelings were towards creating the first formalised forum for spam within Uncyclopedia. It was from this that we now have the immortal words "Those assholes better appreciate this. They'd BETTER." Now, two years on from those words of wit and wisdom, the UnSignpost is still There have been varied reports as to why the USP has not been released. One suggestion is that regular contributors just "couldn't be bothered writing." Others have suggested that it comes down to the unwillingness of the head editor, who was recently heard to say "I'm so against... this... again... (E)xistence is far more than (it) deserves."[1] One of the more probable reasons for the lack of issues may be that the news has now gone viral, and is available more readily through facebook then it has been previously. One facebook semi-regular, who bears a remarkable resemblance to a Silent Bob inaction figure, has said of this development "Excuse me, but I think your geek is showing." Dexter111344 supported the move to the social networking site by saying "I won't be joining as I don't intend to ever make a Facebook." Another possibility is the number of users now communicating via UnSkypelopedia. When asked for a comment, EMC said "OH FUCKING CHRIST I'VE CUM" Dr.Skullthumper, however, said "I started both of them.", and then wished to make reference to some forum or something. Ethine, however, was somewhat more constructive, informing this reporter that "Since it's getting close to summer, we'll likely have more calls, as most people's schedules are slowing down. As well as calls, we have the neat little chat thing at the bottom, where everyone sexually harasses each other when calls aren't going." Despite several attempts, I still haven't been sexually harassed. One reason why users have not been as distracted recently is due to the enormous amount of work going on at PEE review. At present there are articles waiting for review which have been there for over three weeks. For all those who are looking to get the review process back and alive, please pick up an article for review today. Your time and investment into this proud tradition can create the next great article, like the recently featured A wizard did it or the recently nominated UnNews:Windows 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 came out, hailed by some as "the most profound and groundbreaking article to hit Uncyclopedia in over 50 years" Another reason why many users may be distracted is the number of collaborations that are currently in progress. Of those there is Tim Burton, being cleaned up by the team at ΥΣΣ, lead by the fantastic Skinfan13. Also starting to make some ground in the spread of reliable information is the team at Multiliteralist/Summit of Spin, lead by the wonderful Multiliteralist. And of course, coming out blinking from seeing the light of Discordianism is the ever faithful Imperial colonization, lead by everyone's favourite canine, And of course, another reason might simply be that the team here at USP are all running around arranging bake sales to assist with Poo Lit Surprise, the bi-annual competition that actually gives prizes to the winners. The most likely explanation, however, is that nothing newsworthy ever happens on Uncyclopedia |

Along the same lines as the above, pee review[edit source]
Very good, both the six-line stanza idea and the additional stanzas about BP and the oil execs in general (along with their governmental cronies from various American administrations and Congresses, including the present ones) Bottom line (here's a bottom line: ______________), would you like to collab? You've started already, with the two stanzas. I'd still like to link each line with something here, as that way all the pages (mostly in UnNews right now) concerning the oil gusher would be linked. Would be very nice to work with you, and we can both come up with ideas and then work out what works best. Yes, the present ending is weak, as I did try to work in a ryme to the second to last line. Well let me know, and I will work on some other stanzas and links in the meantime. Thanks a billion (and F.U. C.K. BP--excuse my fu. ck. in.' language) Aleister 18:10 16 6 MMX
- p.s. lol. Check out the bottom photo caption. An attempt to save the photo on the page (it seems at home there somehow).
- p.s. I've put your two stanzas in, although I reversed them (you probably improve as you go, the second was better than the first) and changed a few words (I think I'll take out Pig, a little too direct and '70ish, unless you really love it!). Can I use them if you don't want to collab on this? And I promise I'll go along with the same theme and put a lot of time in to do it juuuuussssssttttt right (to give BP another nightmare, although be it this one on a clown site). Thanks again, Al 19:03 16 6 MMX
- I'd actually really love to collab. I've never actually managed to successfully do so here (nothing ever got off the ground), but since we're already on the same page here I think it work work brilliantly. I get to work first thing tomorrow. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:02, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
- I've done quite a bit more work. Edits to your stanzas, added a new stanza, and am looking at three more stanzas, for nine in total. One will summarize/comment upon the government, one on the public's response (or non-response i.e. kicking capitalism's behind) and some other aspect. The language flow I've carved this into (lots of double meanings and layers of symbolism--even the Sandra Bullock line and Meg Ryan's facelift are commentaries on the two-faced approach that corporations take to their public and private agendas) has its own logic too. Your idea to add stanzas was perfect. Aleister 2:34 17 6 MMX
- p.s. I'd like to do the last stanza, a call for action, nonviolent but direct, aimed both at BP and the structure of environmental destruction (did you see Chicken, the frat collab for May?]], and final edit on the page (I guess I feel an ownership ego-thing here, but I want it to be perfect and you tossed in a second stage to the project), yet I know you will add further great value to the page. So, fun stuff!

Your version, extremely good writing and edits (neither of us would expect no less!). I'll work them in and around and keep most of it, yet would like to do the closing verse focused on nonviolent direct action. But not until the 'morrow, my mind reels with too much oil, and I am needed elsewhere! Thanks, nice work all around! Aleister 3:36 17 6 MMX
- Excellent, I'm glad you approve. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:27, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
- Damn, it's looking good. I spent an ungodly amount of time mixing the two versions, feeling my way into the many-level based language of much of it, keeping what I still liked and hopfully what you liked. Two more stanzas needed, the last one the call to action thing I have in spirit (I'll have to carve that well). Can you come up with one about pubic reaction or something that moves you for the second to last stanza, or do you want me to go ahead and play it out? Your Red Sea page has interested me but I haven't gotten around to reading it as yet, but will do so right now. And I'm not whoring my HowTo:Reinvent the wheel page either :) (seriously), just wondering if you've read it yet, and if not, please do and make a judgement either way or not at all. It's one of my faves, but wayyyyy at the bottom of the VFH page, hanging on by its nails just as it's gained new life in the last few days. As for the oil poem, I kept the other animals in there too, and Sandra and the bunch, just to expand it out and to add a bit more funny within the serious (and I like them too, like tadpoles you want to protect until the fish come along to eat them). Al 11:33 17 6 MMX
- Hi. Left a few notes on your most recent draft. I guess this is the point where collabs breakdown unless someone does the final edits, which is one of my hats on this page. All strong writers love their own stuff, so we need a captain on each voyage. That's the joy or horror of collabs! On the page, I didn't see various ocean animals as being excluded by the title, it's a title refering to the birds and, as you point out which I didn't realize until you said it, the "well-oiled (corporate) birds". But many of the photos to come will be of sharks (must use sharks, another double meaning), dolphins, turtles, etc. who are right now being driven toward shore by the oil in numbers which are scaring marine biologists and everyone along the Florida and Alabama coast. Cuba will be hit soon too. The most horrible quick-time environmental tragedy since the U.S. prairies were quickly destroyed in the 19th century. Let's get rid of Sandra, Simon, and Meg, which I think is very funny and has the great double meaning of two faced individuals, but you dislike. I'll keep Bennie, as he is a mafia hit victim who was thrown into the gulf to sink in the oil (and I think funny to the people who will get it). Much more, but this is a very large note. Give me some time to work on the thing again, lots of work on it today. Thanks, Al 18:36 17 6 MMX

Call to action, although I have to eat first[edit source]
How about this ending? It feels right, or close to it, and at least throws a pebble into the pond. Al 1:12 18 6 MMX:
Later the next day. I found maybe the "perfect" vid for the bottom of the page. Blessed Be.
Here's the latest last closing stanzas. Thoughts, fears, and recipes? When did you become a wizard? Al 4:22 19 6 MMX
- Students, housewives, and old broken-down hippies,
- Show your love for all nature,
- Not hate of the spoilers,
- Ask for world healing, bring drummers and shamans,
- To a nonviolent stand:
- United Nations.
- "End Earth's destruction", our request to the leaders,
- "Restore lands and waters",
- With the help of the leakers.
- So here, a rhymed call for humanity's quorum,
- Now gather your friends
- At the world's modern Forum!
I like it. Perhaps a little preachy, but that's unavoidable I suppose. A couple things, though: 1)put a "The" in front of "United Nations" to make the meter work better. 2) The rhymes in the first stanza are kind of, well, not really rhymes. I know it's hard to rhyme something with "nation," so I suppose that second time can stand, but the first three lines should really be reworked.
Also, sorry I haven't been around much the last day or so. Yesterday I had a full day of work followed by a full night of friends, and now that I'm back home I have to shortly get ready for another full day of work. I'd help you rework those two stanzas of yours, but I'm not going to be around this weekend much to do so, plus you said you wanted to see to them anyway. But yeah, aside from my two criticisms they're good, so I guess so to that I guess. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 14:21, June 19, 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, I just got back online after a couple of days off myself. Let's go with one of these versions, I would feel bad for my old hippie friends if we say they haven't been laid since the mid-1960s (shivers), probably the opposite is true, they probably get laid more now than anyone else their age who wasn't a hippie--those that kept healthy and active that is.---We have a fun unintentional things in the poem, the CEO's Yacht is named "Bob"! so "bob in the water" can be linked to yacht, and if we don't have a yacht I've got a page in mind to be named "UnBooks:Daddy has two yachts" (seriously, I've already written some of it, a fun one). I'll put in the stuff, and how do you like that video!!! Perfection, imnho, perfection I'se tells ya. I must have listened to the vid a dozen or more times after putting it in. More soon, and maybe this is close to being nommed after the slight rework. Think so? Oily, Aleister 1:05 22 6 MMX
- Well, I'm glad you're just as generally pleased with everything as I am. And I agree, we're basically ready for a nomination. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:06, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
- Great. How about if we wait a day, do it on the 23rd both for luck and to give Ape's oiled bird page time to get his double-digit votes. I'll put up the nom unless you want to do it, Nice changes. And there is uncy page on yacht, although I've wondering if anyone did a UnNews on the yacht fiasco. I'm watching Obermann, now BP wants to drill in the artic. Righhhtttt. Al 2:14 22 6 MMX
- P.S. Or a better idea, how about if we sign both names on the nom. Something like 'Aleister & Guildy' (do you mind that shortening, it's what I always think of you as) or your whole name and I'll shorten mine to fit in the space on the VFH page.
- Feel free to do the nomination when and however you want to, provided you're pleased with the final revisions. You'll certainly have my vote, haha. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:53, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, I expanded the nom comments and my vote a little to make it clearer that this was a collab. Felt like the right time to nom it, I'd done some link changes which seem to work, and a slight tweek or two which improved the pace, etc. And we have enough link spaces to put links to new UnNews pages or a full page or two when people write them. Sort of a depository for articles on the Gulf. Writing this was a trip! Aleister 17:36 22 6 MMX

And there is uncy page on yacht, although I've wondering if anyone did a UnNews on the yacht fiasco. I'm watching Obermann, now BP wants to drill in the artic. Righhhtttt. Al 2:14 22 6 MMX
- Well, I'm glad you're just as generally pleased with everything as I am. And I agree, we're basically ready for a nomination. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:06, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Some grumbling on the nom, that it's not funny enough (not recognizing satire), so I did a little more funny by modifying but using your "laid since the mid-. . ." and redid the Obama stanza so it made me laugh. Neverending saga. Al 2:47 23 6 MMX
- p.s. For funny, would you greatly mind if I put that second stanza back, but maybe using Christian Bale's name (to whore Matfen, of course) or Ann Coulter in place of Sandra Bullock (that she is a man isn't as well alleged as, say, Coulter, and putting Bale in would be saying "as surely as he is a man" in a macho sense). That wold lighten the load of seriousness a bit right at the start. It can be updated periodically as Christian Bale has the operation and no longer is a man.
- Sure, if you think that'll sway the votes of the naysayers and improve the article, than go for it. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 16:28, June 23, 2010 (UTC)
- Naysayers can seldom be UnNayed, but since we are a clown site it seems a little more of the fool should be on the page, it's what the people want, bread and roses and all that. Thanks, Al, minutes later

Conservation Week Approaches
Fancy watering Uncyclopedia's forestry? Want to be a good conservationist? Fancy taking up the rewriting sword of justice, and righteously smiting the dragon of shit writing? Actually, the hell with that, do you want to take a bunch of bad articles, and make them suck less? Then you, my friend, are in luck! Conservation Week 2010 starts on July 5th, and actively encourages users to scour the wiki (perhaps through judicious use of Special:Random, or possibly through exploration of Category:Rewrite or Category:Ideas or even Special:Lonelypages), find lame articles that they consider are taking up the very space which could be occupied by something less sucky, and then using their skill and judgement to turn those articles into shining examples of comedic writing. As this is a competition dedicated to simultaneously reducing the number of useless articles on the wiki and increasing the number of good ones, some naysayers believe it to be completely pointless - Uncyclopedia is the worst, they say, and no amount of well-intentioned competitions can change that. But were it to exist, the Cabal would probably beg to differ. They may call it something like "a genuinely good thing", and "a ray of hope, signalling that occasionally, even the most worthless dreck may be redeemed". So if you think what your userpage is missing is a template called the "Greasy Mechanic Award", then prepare to rewrite like you've never re-written before. Just don't forget to make your new version better than the original. Something summarizing the events of the last month or so It has been said by one of our esteemed administrators here at UnSignpost that if it wasn't reported in the UnSignpost, then it didn't happen. As there has been no UnSignpost produced for the last few days, due to one of the editors having a real life, and another one being lazy, there are several things that didn't happen. Yes, the loss of the UnSignpost for so long sent a shiver down the spines of many an Uncyclopedian. So much so that one member of the community decided that it was timely to look at a new way to produce the UnSignpost. One such idea was to release a monthly periodical in the place of USP. Although there has been several attempts by this reporter to obtain a quote from said insurrectional community member, to date no response has been heard. As part of the ongoing struggle to maintain our independent stance from Wikia, several members decided that it would be a wise idea to create a way to cash in on the popularity of the site. As such the UnShoppe has been created, where you may purchase any one of a number of Uncyclopedia-related pieces of merchandise. So far all purchases have been made by the individuals who created the store. However, if you are looking for the place to buy a shirt that shows that your nipples have been featured, that a wizard did something, whatever it was, and that you have an in-depth knowledge of who Dan Kwon is. There was a competition. Congratulations go to mrthejazz, who got the pun. Imperial Colonisation has taken a brief hiatus after the new head of IC became the old head of IC. He was an Australian, and his example has inspired the entire nation so much that the new head of Parliament for the country is now the old head of parliament. Congratulations go out to the new new head of IC. A strange bandwagon has been created by a drunken Bonner, who has challenged all and sundry to ask him anything at all. As such there are various forums dedicated to asking regular Uncyclopedian members things. These previously were known as user talk pages, but who can stand in the way of progress? And that's all that didn't happen. Although now it's listed in UnSignpost that means it actually did happen. Which suggests that by editing UnSignpost I have the power to change the past. If I could change anything about the past, what would it be? I had sex with a real person![1]

15:16, 24 June 2010Tanks for review[edit source]
I do have good feelings about this article, but the lack of laughs disturbed me a bit. I'll see what I can do. Do you think my concept is too obvious or not obvious enough? I thought it's pretty obvious but some people seemed to be not getting it. I wonder if there might be others out there.
It's also surprisingly hard to find good pics of headshots on the internet. ~
08:21, Jun 28, 2010- Believe me, no one has dealt with people not "getting" their stuff more than me. Don't worry about it. And being witty/clever is often better than being laugh-out-loud funny, so don't worry about that either. Best of luck revising your article. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 14:23, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
So...[edit source]
What's your favourite Kurosawa movie then? That is, if you can nail it down to one. Personally, I'm quite partial to Ran. Fucking beautiful film. Also, I saw you mention Pink Floyd's Animals in a pee you did. Just so happens that's my favourite Floyd album, you a fan too? Stalkingly yours, --Black Flamingo 18:33, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
- Holy fucking Jesus God. Ran is my favorite Kurosawa film, and Animals is my favorite Floyd album. Of course, I also like Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, Throne of Blood, Ikiru, Rashomon, Kagemusha, Dreams, and, like, every film Kurosawa's ever made. Except for The Quiet Duel, that sucked ass, actually. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:11, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
- I'm also partial to basically every song in Floyd's Roger Waters era. Animals and Wish You Were Here especially. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 02:12, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
- I thought I was the only one... I'm actually glad you mentioned Dreams, that's a really underrated Kurosawa film. And yeah, Roger Waters is The Man. His solo stuff wasn't so good though. --Black Flamingo 16:06, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
- I feel exactly the same way about everything you just said. Tell me, what are your thoughts on Ingmar Bergman, Fantasy Football and Porcupine Tree? —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 16:37, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Ok here's where it falls apart:
- I've only seen The Seventh Seal. I loved it however, and admit I should make more of an effort to watch his other films. Any you'd recommend?
- I don't follow football, least of all American football. I'm English but I don't even follow our version.
- And again, I've never listened to them. They any good?
- For a moment there I thought I might have had extreme schizophrenia and was operating multiple accounts at once. --Black Flamingo 16:53, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Aww, drat. For Bergman I'd recommend Cries and Whispers, The Virgin Spring, Persona, Winter Light, The Silence, and Through a Glass Darkly. And though I can't fault you for not liking American Football, it's inexcusable that you haven't listened to Porcupine Tree. They're sort of an Alternative/Progressive Rock/Metal band. They draw a lot of comparisons to Floyd, which makes the fact you haven't heard them yet unforgivable. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 17:18, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

Telling You Stuff You Already Knew, But With Different Words!
Jul 1st, 2010 • Issue 87 • More news than something with less news than us
Things getting boring on the wiki? Time to write at speed!
We're still waiting for that, but until it arrives, Skull's hour-long writing contest will do nicely. Shamelessly pinching Cajek's idea of time-limited writing competitions (which brought us such classics as HowTo:Sexually Stimulate an Ant, lest we forget), but putting his own distinct spin on it, Uncyc's own mad Doctor challenged Uncyclopedians to write an article in a single hour that would survive VFD. Given Uncyclopedia's well-known exacting quality standards, this promised to be a tough task, but a surprising number of people were up for it. And so it was that a frenzy erupted across the wiki, and baffled Europeans and other users not around at the time awoke the next day to a slew of brand new articles, not all of which ended up being deleted. They liked the idea so much, they held their own a couple of days later. When asked to comment on his brainchild, the commotion and excitement it had caused, and the size of his penis, Dr. Skullthumper exclusively told us "Sure. I'll get on that. I swear". Things getting boring on the wiki? Time to start pointless drama! Giant evil multinational wiki-hosting conglomerate Wikia won a major victory last month, when a rebellion by a small but dedicated band of anti-capitalist radicals was brutally put down by a bunch of fascistic Wikia-collaborators. Or at least, that's what happened in the heads of Carlb, Roye7777777 and CartoonistHenning after they nailed their anti-Wikia manifesto to the metaphorical door of Uncyclopedia's metaphorical Wittenberg Cathedral. The 1,000-word anti-Wikia tract, despite the shocking and previously unknown revelation that Wikia was not in fact the wiki-hosting charity that it claimed to be, but rather a commercial company, failed to ignite a spontaneous revolt against Wikia among the Uncyclopedia community. A heated and sexually-charge discussion ensued, with strong arguments offered by both sides. However, it seems that some people were unable to grasp the enormity of the revelation that Wikia's motives were less than altruistic. Eventually, the thread descended into an all-out flamewar and a waaaaaaaaaaaaaahmbulance was called to treat the injured. "We may have lost this round," Carlb told UnSignpost reporters "but it is only a temporary setback. One day, the tyranny of Wikia will be no more. Our revenge will be the laughter of our children." It is rumoured that Carlb, Roye7777777 and CartoonistHenning will employ Black Bloc tactics at the next Wikia conference in an attempt to escalate the struggle against Wikia oppression. |

Reading This Is The Mysterious Second Step To Getting Profit From Stealing Childrens' Underwear!
Jul 8th, 2010 • Issue 88 • Hand-stitched for comfort
Conservation week: how's it going, and what is it anyway?
Conservation week has been running since autumn 2007, starting life in Jocke Pirat's userspace, and spending a confused few hours being called the rewrite-a-thon in an early attempt to get around the whole week-fortnight thing. The first iteration was a resounding success, and about 38 people signed up to rewrite over 50 articles (with Zombiebaron hilariously missing the point and going on a deletion spree instead), making the current iteration look like it has some work to do. However, there was no quality control at the outset - if an article was rewritten in any way, that was deemed good enough. Some of those early articles may well have been made worse, we just don't know (or can't be bothered to check). Quality control arrived later on, when erstwhile gentleman editor of this very organ Gerrycheevers stepped up to run the first 2009 CW, and ran the rule over all the rewrites personally, so that the attendant award was only bestowed on those doing quality rewrites. That task this year falls to Dexter111344, who has promised to be "harsh but harsh". Probably. So, with a prize on offer to the person with the most high quality rewrites, and plenty of time left in which to do said rewrites, the only question left is: "why haven't you entered yet"? We asked this question of one completely random user, and he exclusively told us "because I'm busy writing this week's issue of the UnSignpost, duh!" Image Request: A Retrospective
Established in March 2005 by a user called Machinecurse, this page has been the domain of most of the legends of Uncyc image manipulation at one time or another - as one 'chopper has left, another has arisen to take their place, in some kind of Potatochop Royal Succession stylee. Or something. Whatever, the likes of Paulgb, Zombiebaron, Seeker, Sonje and, more recently, KneeChee27 and MeepStarLives have slaved over hot image editing software to fulfil the esoteric image requirements of the Uncyclopedia populace. The response time has always varied on the page, as it largely depends on how active the 'choppers are at the time, how achievable the requests actually are, and how polite the request is. But for those with a little patience, it is undoubtedly a useful resource in the ongoing quest for that perfect image of Mario and Master Chief riding Pikachu down the Death Star Trench run. Or something. Have a look at the gallery to see some of the more recent work. |

Re one of your Top 10 of 2009 votes from January 2010[edit source]
Dear Mr/Ms Guildensternenstein/archive6, Greetings. I am the lawyer for Arthur C. Clarke's estate. Last summer, following the listing of an article on this website (henceforth referred to as "Uncyclopedia"), namely the article titled 2001: A Space Odyssey, as a featured article, I and my assistant began to prepare a copyright infringement suit against you, and were about to file it in December 2009 when both of us were attacked violently by the user MacMania, who was imprisoned for his central role in this infringement, but had apparently escaped custody to exact revenge against us. Needless to say, MacMania was once again taken into custody, but we lapsed into a comatose state. However, now that we have woken up, we have found out, much to our chagrin and dismay, that you have further encouraged such infringing actions by selecting 2001: A Space Odyssey as the number 2 article of 2009, and that England once again failed to make the World Cup final. We must, of course, take further action, and would like to notify you that unless Uncyclopedia's administrators take action, we will press the following charges: 1. continued support, encouragement, and flaunting of copyright infringement; 2. indirectly causing severe physical harm to me and my assistant; 3. potentially providing shelter to Paul the Octopus, whose psychic powers clearly drastically demoralized the English national football team against the German team, which is an unspeakably criminal act. We will drop these charges only if you agree to furnish us with a Paul the Octopus voodoo doll* for our perusal. Please let us know if this is possible. Your obedient servant (strictly in a figurative sense) |
Better late than never, or at least that's the thought. (Sorry about the length of this, by the way.) Horribly belated thanks for voting 2001: A Space Odyssey into #2 of 2009! Sir MacMania GUN—[01:43 16 Jul 2010]
In case you thought I forgot[edit source]
All Quiet on the Western Front is slightly changed, taking your review into account. I've decided to keep the "noob" because in the book, a large part of it dealt with the innocent, wide-eyed teenagers who get senselessly killed in war (the noobs), and this contrast between game and book is quite nifty. Anyway, give it another look and see if you have any more suggestions. ~ 07:32, Jul 16, 2010

The 40+ club expands
We asked them all for quotes, and Mhaille exclusively told us: ""Go eat more shit, fuckers"...obviously I am excited to have reached the BIG 4-0, and am delighted that enough of my peers deem the quality of my work good enough to have reached that figure, although I have to say I'm a little pissed that at least 10 other of my articles are feature-worthy and are constant overlooked (lengthy bans will ensue, I'm sure), I am equally as proud of my featured images, as well as many of my other contributions that I hope that my peers feel have augmented the work of others. That I am still here after five long years, and still contributing says something about Uncyclopedia itself. What that is, I wouldn't like to speculate. But sometimes you have to in order to accumulate. Apparently." Which is such a long quote we're going to need at least one blatant filler box in the right-hand panel. Bastard. Meanwhile, Modus exclusively told us "It's not that myself and Mhaille have written so very many great and fantastic pages that have, and will continue to, entertain the people for years to come. It's just that Mhaille did. "I" am one of his many sockpuppets. He writes as "Modusoperandi" when he needs a page without a "foreign" accent. Look around. There are a bunch more Mhaille sockpuppets here, too. Hyperbole, for one. Mhaille is like a wet Mogwai." Which is more concise, and therefore OK. Finally, Hype exclusively commented: "I'd like to say thank you to Uncyclopedia for voting to feature my many excellent, high-quality articles, including the drunken insistence that you accept a diseased poodle, the song about having sex with sporting goods, and the blatantly racist tirade about having to wait too long for a Pee Review. Writing 39.5 features has been literally the most important accomplishment I will ever have in my life. I look forward to continuing to service each and every one of you in the future." Which was nice of him. So, the burning question now has to be: who will be first to 50? Modus obviously has the lead, but Mhaille is writing in greater volume than he has for some time, and if Hype keeps up the pace, he's probably a good bet. But they're not the only candidates - Sog is coming up the rails rapidly, and could reach the 40 mark even quicker than Hype - could he overtake the lot of them? The only thing certain is that with these guys around, Uncyc should be assured of some half-decent articles amongst the dross. World Cup over - Romartus struggling for UnNews inspiration
The scourge of Junior Uncyclopedia has discovered his muse in the planet's biggest sporting event, and has been cranking out UnNews articles on the subject at an alarming rate. Now, without Jabulani balls, biting tackles and Messi long shots to inspire him, what is there to inspire him to maintain such prolific standards? Suspicions abound that the Tour De France is passing him by, he seems far too English to care about the various draft and transfer shenanigans in the NFL and NBA and the like, and as the only story to emerge from golf's Open Championship so far is Tiger Woods changing his putter (wow, someone hold me back), that seems unlikely to unleash his inner news-hound. With a worrying lack of global sporting tournaments on the horizon, will we have to wait another 4 years for the next Romartus article splurge? Stay tuned to UnNews to find out! |

Thanks Guildy![edit source]
It was an insightful review; I'm going to read through Moby-Dick again and see what more fun I can make of it (alternatively, and more probably, I may just go to Wikipedia for a summary if when I get tired of the encyclopaedic parts again). Also, ship puns are the new fish puns. Also also, trust me, I was trying to fit Starbuck/Starbucks in somewhere, and the only way I fit Starbucks in (I'm sure you noticed) was a link gag. But since (as you doubtless do not wish to know) I will be expanding on the "frame narrative" by having two sub-sections under the Contents and features section ... never say "never say 'never say never.'" Again, appreciate the review! Sir MacMania GUN—[02:58 21 Jul 2010]

Sucking Journalism's Fat Wang. Badly.

UnNews hits warp factor Whore
That bastard child of Uncyclopedia and WikiNews, UnNews, is in full-on whoring mode. Tired of being relegated to the bilge hold of Uncyc, staff have collectively and to a man, woman or it, decided to resort to the time-honored tradition of whoring themselves for attention. 2010 is shaping up to be a record year for lots of stuff, which I am too lazy to actually reference. We've had lots of cool coding happenings, resulting in a facelift to the Main Page, and a really cool navigation bar giving access to a plethora (well, 7 sections in fact) of sections including Sports, Comics, Editorials, and special coverage of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Contributors to UnNews of note are Funnybony, SPIKE, Romartus, Modusoperandi, Mordillo, Multiliteralist, PuppyOnTheRadio, Happytimes, Matt lobster and MrN9000 (when the bugger's here). Apologies to anybody I've missed. The Newsroom, home to nefarious plots and odd ideas, has once again become an active core of resistance against Uncyc's unofficial policy of ignoring us. Always leading edge, UnNews is acquiring a stable of notable personalities for a new series of Uncolumns called "Reductio ad Hitlerum", a guest column that invites persons of note to do an article for us, usually under threat of blackmail. Discussion here, first RaH column here by guest Sarah Palin. Techno gets Mhaille'd
The award is, unusually on vote-happy Uncyclopedia, not decided on by voting, but is bestowed at the sole discretion of feature-monster, bureaucrat, whoring legend and token Liverpool fan Mhaille, according to his own criteria. Looking down the list of previous winners - Shandon, ENeGMA, Tompkins, Zombiebaron, Prettiestpretty, Savethemooses and the rest, it's pretty clear that the good Rabbi is a) in good company, and b) not going to be here much longer. |

Konbanwa/Ohayō kozaimasu Guildensternenstein-san[edit source]
(I'm certainly not young enough to be called MacMania-kun—oh, I wish I were)
(oh, and I almost said おはようこざいました—I can never tell when to say -ました and when to say -ます, although the latter's probably more proper)
Thanks for the review! Spot on with the concept—basically I saw "HowTo:Become Japanese" or something like that on the requested article list, read some HowTos in that vein, feared what might happen if somebody else actually wrote it, and decided to send up the blasted namespace. (Yes, that blood bag image was inspired unlike any other—only a mind as twisted as mine could come up with that from a reading of Japanese nationality law.)
So, on to actual distillation—needless to say, I've obviously had Charlotte the spider's illiterate grandchildren just grabbing random bits from other HowTos and pasting those onto their cobwebs. (Strikeout jokes rarely work, and I should know since I use them so much.)
- Should I drastically reduce 2a? It helps maintain the impression (despite hints to the contrary in the TOC—which I think may be running into the flag because of 2c's very long title) that it's a straightly done HowTo, but then again, as you say, it's a tad bit common and as such loses comedic quality.
- Should I expand on 2b? The running gag as is falls a bit flat, I'm afraid, and perhaps more content in each item and outside of the list as well (maybe drawing the list out into a few paragraphs, even) might help with humour ...
- What about 2c? I like it as it is—short and bitter (with what TVTropers might call a Double Subversion of a trope)—but perhaps some more anti-racist ranting could help.
Sorry for dumping this on your talkpage, and thanks for the review! Sir MacMania GUN—[04:48 26 Jul 2010]
- Right, thanks. Tried a few things out, but I don't believe I'm done yet. Do you want to suggest anything further to do before I drop this in the review queue a second time? Sir MacMania GUN—[19:25 26 Jul 2010]
- I'll look this over and give you my thoughts this evening after I get out of work. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 15:55, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
- Hurrah, thanks! Changes incorporated, I think. Time for another week in the review queue (and blast it, it's 0500 again for the second time in a row today) ... Sir MacMania GUN—[04:05 28 Jul 2010]
Upsilon Sigma Sigma July Newsletter[edit | edit source]
Well guys, its been exactly 5 billion years since I last did a newsletter and I thought doing one would be a good way to get everyone back into the fold for August. Big things on the horizon for August for Upsilon Sigma Sigma.
First thing's first: Welcome to our newest brothers, Maniac1075 and Happymonkey39! Hopefully you guys will stick around and become regular contributors to our little project here!
Secondly, unfortunately there wasn't really a July collaboration. That's partly my fault from being absent most of the month because of work. The June collaboration, Taco, that got roughly finished and reviewed around mid-July will be our collaboration for both months. Go ahead and head on over to the collaboration page to vote on whether we send the article to mainspace or not and be sure to nominate an article for the que, also found on the collaboration page.
Third, some asshole (cough MadMax) redirected weird to odd, but bad news for him; we're doing weird as our collaboration for August anyways. This one is going to be epic guys, like Tim Burton epic. I'd like an 'all hands on deck' turnout for this one. We'll begin sometime around August 1 or second. I was thinking the approach for the article should be from the perspective of a high school misfit who's unaware how weird he is describing other kids as being weird. or something... Once the collaboration page is up and running we'll hash it out on the discussion page.
Lastly, and I know I constantly pound this, we all need to start doing requested articles individually. This is supposed to be a big part of USS, but our frat has morphed into mainly a collaboration group. Lets try and focus on those individual requested articles over the next few months.
Looking forward to ramping this thing back into gear with you guys in August!

Re: Yahtzee[edit source]
OK, the main problem, as people voting on the first VFH nomination pointed out, is accessibility, I think. Most of your other articles in this style are either about very famous filmmakers or actually take some time to coherently explain the person's background, style, etc in some detail if not exquisitely. The ZP article seems to lack a bit in this regard—as a ZP fan I get that this is imitating the rambling, borderline coherent style of the narration, but the sections with biographical information or subject exposition frankly seem to go all over the place, and it's probably confusing to non-fans. In conclusion, you need to go in a solid, visible direction with each section like you do with your other articles, so that it becomes more easily readable and thus more accessible to those outside of the Yahtzee niche. Don't completely lose the train of thought—throw in the occasional one-liner or visual pun once in a while while retaining coherence; that's what makes Yahtzee rather hard to imitate, I think. (The reviewer, not the dice game.) Hope this is not too harsh and somewhat helpful— Sir MacMania GUN—[03:22 31 Jul 2010]
- Speaking of Yahtzee the dice game, there's a missed visual pun opportunity right there. Heh. Sir MacMania GUN—[03:23 31 Jul 2010]
- I've considered doing stuff along those lines, but the joke (obviously) as that it's an article about Yahtzee done in the style of Yahtzee, and I don't want to toy with that too much. Basically more people should watch Zero Punctuation, and therefore get the joke. One of these days I'll revisit it, though, I guess. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:39, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

As a matter of fact, yes, GLaDOS, there is. Quite a few of us are waiting for the new, creative, inventive quotes that are to come in Portal 2, and actually are sick and tired of people who regurgitate quotes and memes from a two-and-a-half-year-old game.
You're right. I can't become just a soundboard of tired old quotes.

VFD minimum time limit introduced
Further to that, the minimum score required for deletion is in the process of being clarified, so that either a score of at least +5 in favour of deletion will be required before the trigger-happy admins fire up their huffing devices, or 5 keep votes will automatically exempt an article from deletion. One of those. Probably. The number 5 seems certain to be involved, whatever the outcome. Hopefully, this will ensure that BUTT POOP is never deleted again. At least, such is our understanding. Sorry about that. We will now follow this with an article with no relation to news whatsoever, to try and make it up to you. Uncyc Fantasy Football draft off to racing start
So far, the results have surpassed the expectations of all except noted optimist Bradaphraser. Three days in, and seven of the record fourteen competitors have picked a single player each, making this the slowest process since BP started trying to cap that goddamn oil leak. This year's competition promises to be more open than the last, including as it does Joe9320, who admits to knowing nothing about the sport, preferring AFL, and noted British namby-pamby "soccer" fan UU, who has somehow agreed to become an Indianapolis Colts fan for the duration of the season. Hence his adding a picture of what he is assured is the awesome Peyton Manning into this very article. With the likes of the here-one-week-gone-for-a-month Gerrycheevers also involved in the process, it could well end up taking long enough to be ready by the start of the 2011-12 season. |

Russo-Japanese War is bloody hilarious. I was going to review it but I only really have two suggestions to make. They are:
- Move footnotes 3 & 4 into the main text, they are too funny to be hidden away down there, and I don't think they'd interrupt the flow.
- The "nobody cares" link was a bit predictable. At least, I saw it coming. Perhaps cut that.
Anyway, If I'd have come across the article some other way, I'd have definitely nommed it. --Black Flamingo 17:06, August 10, 2010 (UTC)
- Why thank you. I suppose I could integrate the third footnote into the text, though the fourth one is definitely more of an aside based off the point than the point itself, and should probably stay a footnote. And I do agree that the Nobody cares link is predictable, but I needed some sort of segue into the sections on the war itself, and that seemed as good a method as any. Also, if you think it's that good, feel free to nominate it. I'm going to make a couple-three revisions right now, so yeah. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 17:21, August 10, 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, I think I meant the first, not the fourth, I agree on the fourth. Although you could probably move the second up too. I'm not sure what to suggest about your segue. You could just basically explain that there were a lot of reasons for the war (as you already do) but then just say "but these aren't as exciting as giant robots killing drunken Slavic farmers" - or something to that effect. But whatever, I trust you know what you're doing. See you over at VFH. --Black Flamingo 18:10, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

I was actually seriously considering taking Vernon Davis but I already had Crabtree and don't like stacking people from the same team unless it's QB/WR. I got Davis last year for nothing. I'm a big 49er fan and I heard a lot of hype about him so I was picking him up in my 3 drafts last year way at the end - one even as a FA after the draft was over. I sure hope he has a good 2010 because my real team needs him.-- 08:39, August 11, 2010 (UTC)
- Indeed. I honestly thing the 'Niners are going to own that division this year--11-5, I'm thinking. Plus I think Davis could have an even bigger season than last year, per the 'Niners' improved line and stability at quarterback for once. Hell, even if his stats drop a bit, him getting something like 800 yards and 8-10 TDs makes him more than worth it where I got him. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 13:13, August 11, 2010 (UTC)
- I'm hoping that the chemistry will be better with Crabtree in year two and maybe he'll sneak into the bottom of the top 10 fantasy WR's this season at the very least.--
- Hmm, perhaps, though the 49ers probably don't through the ball enough for that. You never know, though, he certainly has the talent to be a Top-10 guy. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 16:34, August 11, 2010 (UTC)
- They started an "air it out" campaign last year, the players wanted it, and then they suddenly backed off it at the end of the season and I'm under the belief that it was mostly a personnel issue - The O-line. If they can protect better this year that extra half second to scan the field is going to pay dividends. These guys want to throw the ball, I know that much.--
- Yeah, but with that line and Frank Gore, I don't know how much that's going to happen. Plus Singletary is a ball-control kind of guy. At best they're going to use the run to set up the pass, and run a lot of play actions, I think. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 17:35, August 11, 2010 (UTC)

- Well, Guildy, using the numbers from Yahoo, your last couple of autopicks have skipped the Jets defense (which is way up there at an average of 55th pick), then it's Pierre Garcon, Minnesota's defense, and finally Jeremy Maclin of the Eagles. I've been told you've been asked to sutopick for the next four picks, but I have no such insider information, which is why I'm not entering them in, but there you go.--<<>> 18:35, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
- Really? Fuck. I didn't even think to look at D for those few picks because defenses usually don't start going until the late 70s. Ah well. No one likes picking D anyway. Anyhoo, I'm gonna do those autopicks now. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 01:08, August 15, 2010 (UTC)
- Your turn. I picked the autopicks, so it's your turn to pick a player. The bad news is that there isn't a highly-rated receiver left. The good news is that there are a lot of great defenses to choose from.--<<>> 18:20, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

You could go down the road of Modus's magnum opus UnMovie Review: The Dark Knight, and make a movie review, you could get all cultured on our asses, and go Shakespearian, or you could review something else entirely. The choice is, quite literally, yours! Something helpful this way comes

If you are in need of added awesomeness on your page, pop in a request and see what happens.

'Tis your turn[edit source]
To everything turn, turn, turn. It appears to be a turn for you to pick a lot of players at once.--<<>> 11:21, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
- Faintly peeved. I only checked back to see if it was my go, and I find my go's been taken despite me not requesting such, and there still being time left for me to take it. I know I put up the vacation template, but generally, I do ask if I'm not going to be around fully - see lest weekend's post on the forum. Ah well. If that def and that kicker blow and cost me the whole thing, guess I'll just track you down and kill you mercilessly. Sound fair? --UU - natter 21:52, Aug 27

- Wow, thanks for doing an audio! (You think that UnNews of mine is feature worthy? I think it might have a shot, but I'd like a second opinion.) —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 04:34, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Special Thanks, Guildy![edit source]
I was wondering why this article was being overlooked and didn't want to throw a hissy fit about it. Thanks for the nom! -- 11:15, September 7, 2010 (UTC)

The Newspaper That Wonders What Happened To You. You Used To Be Cool.
Sept 9th, 2010 • Issue 93 • Our definition of "weekly" may not match yours
The pee is weak - must be time for Pee Week!
Yes, it would appear to be nearly time for the inaugural Uncyclopedia Pee Week! It starts on Monday 13th September. So, the questions must be asked:
If the answer to at least one of those questions is "yes", you could be on your way to winning this soon-to-be prestigious competition! Just sign up here, and prepare to review as you've never reviewed before! The best of the 5.5 years super-extravaganza begins!
That's right, on the fifth of every month, a new vote will start to determine the best somethingorother of the 5.5 years that Uncyc has been in existence. This month's vote is already open, and it's for the writer of the 5.5 years. So get over there, vote, and make your voice heard! Again. Asked for his feelings on seeing his brainchild getting off the ground like this, TKF exclusively told us: "My grand-uncle used to tell me "He who goes forth with a fifth on the Fourth, may not come forth on the fifth!" and I feel that's somehow relevant to this situation." Anyone pointing out that by the time this finishes, Uncyclopedia will be around 6 years old will be asked not to point it out again. UnNews main page
Someone suggested to completely revamp the UnNews main page and in an epic move of Uncyclopedia originality, decided to hold a vote on it. Some people farted. |

Starting lineup? Dammit![edit source]
I thought you were gonna just plug in our players when you created the teams. Now I'm down points! Ahhhgh! (or something). Can you fix it or should I swap out some of my crappy players real quick to try and re-capture my kicking & defense points? ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!* ~ ~ 10 Sep 2010 ~ 03:56 (UTC)
- I can't fix it--sorry. And I'd hang onto those "crappy players"--it's better to have depth at things like RB and WR instead of at kicker and defense. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 05:17, September 10, 2010 (UTC)
- This is truth you speak... I bet you're right though, If I drop them for one week they might get taken before I can put them back. ~ Avast Matey!!! Happytimes are here!* ~ ~ 11 Sep 2010 ~ 00:49 (UTC)
Something or other[edit source]
Sorry for asking this in (probably) the wrong place, but I rewrote HowTo:Sell Ice to Eskimos (first rewrite, not what you'd see today) about a month before joining Der Unwehr. Would that still qualify as a rewrite for Der Unwehr or not? I didn't think that it would, but I thought to come and ask before doing anything, by which I mean doing nothing. Leutnant Herr Thatdamnedfollowspot 20:17 Sunday, September 12, 2010
- Well, if said rewrite is an improvement over the original, than yeah, sure. —Unführer Guildy Ritter von Guildensternenstein 00:15, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
