Pooping in butts

I'm not going to keep revert warring you, so I'm just going to outline it pretty plainly here: I'm protecting the forum topic again, nothing is being restored, and if you decide to combat either of those decisions, I am going to deop you. You've more or less utterly failed to maintain the responsibility of an administrator, so consider it a blessing that I am not going to take action against you instantaneously. There's going to be no discussion on Butt Poop again because there's already been a crazy amount of discussion on the useless, awful page. There won't be more. -- T​K​F​​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​UU​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​CK 16:47, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

OK, I can understand the decision to delete the file and "protect" the forum but "There's going to be no discussion on Butt Poop again..."??? I think that's an over-reach of epic proportions. Are you capable of logically defending that statement or are you just going to play authoritarian on that? The only reason I'm bothering is because I know you're wrong. Frankly, your tactics are actually keeping the discussion alive instead of simply letting the subject die on its own - not very smart IMO.--    18:52, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Also: I've see tons of outright crap that I'd like to outright delete on this site with zero discussion but I learned a long time ago that it's not MY site - merely a collective of the people who contribute. When you lose sight of that, you're just a content national socialist. The fact that you've even mentioned "there's already been a crazy amount of discussion..." about BUTT POOP!!!! should be telling you something but I guess you just don't want to hear it. Let them eat BUTT POOP!!!! I guess?? Why in the heck would you want to lose respect over one stupid page and or template? That's what you're doooooing!--    19:05, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Have I deleted butt poop? No. Should it have been deleted on sight? Maybe, but I'm not contesting that because VFD already decided. And because VFD (as an extension of the community) decided, in all instances of butt poop, there really is zero need to revive a discussion that has already had plenty of opportunities to go nowhere. Hell, once it even did result in compromise (remember the 24 hour VFD timer?), so isn't that enough? -- T​K​F​​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​UU​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​CK 19:18, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Odd how you consider making VFD more fair and not allowing things that were unfairly deleted previously a chance to be restored a sufficient compromise. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 19:22, 2 September 2011

You know why that isn't a fair compromise? Because consensus has decided against it. Repeatedly. -- T​K​F​​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​UU​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​CK 19:27, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Do you compromise? 1234 ~ 19:47, 2 September 2011

Look, I don't know what this whole mess about BUTT POOP is (personally, I hate that page but that's another story) but I simply don't seem to understand how TKF can claim there's been a "consensus" over the issue when people are still upset about it. From what I've heard, the original template was deleted within just a couple of hours thanks to votes piling on due to incessant whoring on IRC. There's no question that this pissed people off. Socky's just trying to right the wrongs he perceives to have been done with the template, and that too without being a dick. And here you come, protecting the forum page, accusing Socky of being a crappy admin, and even starting a vote to de-op him. This confrontational, hostile way of handling the situation is precisely what will end up escalating it. --Scofield & The Machine 19:55, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

The original consensus was from before you joined, I believe, with the 24 hour rule being born of that, among other things. It has already been discussed half to death, however, and remains a sore point among many. Bringing it up again now simply serves no purpose when there are so many other things folks could be doing, and even helps prevent other folks from doing that. 1234 ~ 20:09, 2 September 2011

What Scofield said. lol! OK, I spoke to you both on IRC and I'll pretty much stay out of this fiasco, I've pretty much said all there's to say on the matter. I just think that more drama from the admin side will draw more user drama into the fray. Can't wait for the big VFD drama when BUTT POOP!!!! Jesus gets resurrected for another vote. Let the campaigning start.......NOW lol! The torture never stops. Just saying "move-on" brings out the punk rock anarchist in people unfortunately. Hey, it sucked me in and I didn't even orgasm. --    20:13, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Quite ironic how the non-admins are playing the voices of reason in this drama. Maybe we should get to vote on whether ol' Socky should be de-opped too! --Scofield & The Machine 20:44, September 2, 2011 (UTC)

Fantasy Football Primer

Just a few things to help you get up to speed:

As soon as the draft is finished, Guildy will populate the Yahoo league with the players we've drafted and then the week to week schedule will be automatically set by Yahoo. You'll be able to navigate your team's page and look at all of the news and advice for your players.

Pay attention to the NFL schedule: You'll be able to see which of your player's NFL teams will have a "bye week" by clicking on the individual week's number located on your team's home page. No teams will have bye weeks in 1-4. Weeks 5,6,7,8,9 and 11 will have teams that do not play (for some reason there are no teams on "bye" during week 10). So, you may want to look ahead and see which weeks that your fantasy team might have a substantial amount of players unavailable.

Free Agents: Any player that goes undrafted will be available to be picked up as a free agent. You will be able to see a list of them by clicking on the "available players" tab on your Yahoo team page - which will include sortable stats. Important note: If you wanted to draft a free agent that will be available for week 5, you MUST make that move before the start of the first game of that week. Some weeks will have the first game on a Thursday (like week one) so if you don't make a free agent move before the first game begins, the player you want will be secured but unavailable for play until the following week. Keep an eye out for undrafted players that are producing points due to any number of reasons, such as an injury to the normal starter for that position. I personally keep an eye on key injuries to RB's and will draft their successors if I know they're going to touch the ball a lot - even if it's to keep them out of the hands of the competition.

Feast or famine: NFL football is incredibly difficult to predict, so even the "expert opinion" of football analysts can lead you astray. NFL teams do an incredible amount of film watching to come up with game plans against a competitor. Sometimes what is perceived as a good player to start in your lineup ends up being a bust for some games due to the game plan and sometimes just dumb luck. Players that aren't producing early in the season can suddenly become fantasy studs later in the year. Example: Last year I drafted Sidney Rice (WR for the Vikings last year) and the first 4-5 weeks he didn't do a damn thing. I never started him and eventually dropped him in exchange for a free agent. A couple of weeks later, he turns into a fantasy stud after being picked up by someone else in the league. Drat, foiled again!

However, some lineup changes are more or less no-brainers. If you have a RB whose team is facing the best run defense in the league or a WR who's team is facing the best pass defense in the league, it's probably a good idea to look into the possibility of starting a different player with a better matchup. You can look up statistics on the Yahoo NFL page in the "stats" tab. Here's a look at last year's team defense stats against the run (RB's) [1] So, the Pittsburgh Steeler's defense were awfully good at stopping other teams from running against them LAST YEAR. Emphasis on LAST YEAR.

Of course, this is all incredibly anal retentive stuff for fantasy football geeks. You don't have to spend nearly as much time agonizing over your starting lineup like Guidy and the rest of us who have been raised on American Football. Just wanted to give you a taste of what we do to prepare - which should give you the basic tools for being competitive in the league. Simply following the expert advice on who to "sit and start" will help you. They have a "star system" on the Yahoo team page that you can look up fore the best players to start - according to the experts.

Good luck!!--    11:07, September 4, 2011 (UTC)

Your team is all loaded and ready to go. Just drag and drop your players into their positions and hit "submit". You'll notice that kickers and defense have their own windows below. The system is pretty much error proof, it won't allow you to put anyone in the wrong place. Note: If you have nobody playing in the first game Thursday, you don't have to do a thing. A player gets locked in the starting lineup, or on the bench, only after kickoff time for the individual teams games. So, that allows you to change your mind and possibly tinker with unlocked slots or players in your lineup after the early games (1:00 EST Sunday) have started. Other start times will be 4:00pm EST Sunday and there's usually one game late Sunday night and one Monday night. During the season, we anal retents pay close attention to injury reports that come out right before game times and sometimes make last minute roster decisions. Sometimes, a player will be banged up a little (from the week before) and you won't know until 15 minutes before game time whether certain people will be playing or not. You'll also see a little yellow sticky-note type icon next to a player's name that you can click on for news and/or analysis - sometimes helpful, sometimes not so helpful. Again, good luck! --    20:32, September 7, 2011 (UTC)

Well here in the US, part of the problem is the fact that executive pay continues to grow as if there's no economic problems. The bulk of the workforce is either not working or seriously underpaid - which means less spending and less demand. Hate to sound Commie but there's plenty of money to go around, it's just all in the hands of a tiny minority of people who appear to want to roll back environmental protection and worker's rights to the 19th century.

Now that the VFH list is getting short.....any chance of throwing this to the lions for me? It won't offend me if you'd rather pass - eventually Aleister or someone will end up doing it. On another note, I might just finally finish Images (something you inquired about awhile back), since I'm just not feeling inspired to start anything new at the moment. I'm trying to figure out something for PLS though. I have an UnTunes in the works but I'm not sure if my voice is going to cut it. It's a slightly deranged homoerotic version of Peter Frampton's "Show me the way". I thought RAHB's voice wasn't that bad but "We didn't start the fire" isn't much of a test for vocal range. Any suggestions for someone else capable? I'm going to give it a shot myself but I'm expecting to not like the results.--    13:47, September 15, 2011 (UTC)

Dude.....120 points

That's a super awesome week using this scoring system. You basically want at least 80 points each week. I'll probably fall short of that mark - bad matchups in week 1 for me. It happens. Some key players had their offenses stifled. ATL, TB, etc. 100 points gets you a win 90% of the time and 120 is almost impossible to beat but once in awhile two peeps have big games while matched up. There's nothing like scoring the 2nd highest amount of points in the league (for that week) and walking away with a loss. It happens. Well, for now, YOU'RE NUMBER ONE! Overall points scored is also the first tiebreaker for teams with the same record - which will definitely come into play when playoff seeding time comes around.--    10:28, September 12, 2011 (UTC)

We had found FFW abuse- I am serious.

Remember the Forest Fire Week we had last month? I need to bring up this problem to your attention. Why? I'll tell you:
Lollipop told me on the Village Dump that some users that participated in Forest Fire Week randomly clicked (and in my own words, abused) the FFW tag and/or anything that is FFW related for the purposes of gaining more FFWs than others. Some of the FFW-tagged articles that are later deleted are considered as humorous. I want you to create a solution so that future abuses of FFW do not happen again. |Si Plebius Dato' Joe ang Man on Fire CUN|IC Kill | 07:23, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Instead of consulting the one person who was against the whole notion, why not create a forum about it, so others can put in a word? ~Sir Frosty (Talk to me!) 07:28, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Or, instead of bringing up "problems" with an event for which planning began over 3 months ago, you should read the aftermath forums where everybody has already agreed the FFW will be run differently in the future. -- The Zombiebaron 07:41, September 21, 2011 (UTC)

Template madness

Hi Socky! I just went on a watchdog tour to see if any of the articles I wrote have been vandalized only to find out the on the George Carlin article, the template is messed up but nobody did this, since nobody edited it since it was featured. Could you take a look and see what you can do about that when you have time? It'll probably take you 30 seconds to figure it out, while it could take me months! Cheers. Mattsnow 09:45, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

Something about that template was breaking pages. Perhaps the matter has been resolved on (and in which case was was probably caused by as well) another end, or perhaps it was more page-specific to some others, but if you could keep an eye on it, it'd be appreciated. 1234 ~ 15:44, 28 September 2011

The most noticeable change you did was changing all the parameters from optional to required. If Wikia managed to screw up all the optional parameters, we'd be in for some serious shit. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 15:59, 28 September 2011

All I did was revert the addition of the parser functions, which were acting weird on an article someone forwarded to us on IRC or something. Maybe they aren't closed, or maybe, considering how this template has been around and in use a lot longer than those have been in the template, it was workarounds on already existing articles using the template causing issue - workarounds do tend to interfere with each other. Also, for the record, we already are in for some serious shit, though it doesn't appear to have anything to do with this extension. 1234 ~ 16:22, 28 September 2011

Is "{{#ifeq:{{{something|none}}}|none||" the usual way optional parameters are coded? Especially the use of "none" in there. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 16:29, 28 September 2011

No, usually it's just done by using an {{#if: {{{input|}}}|stuff}}... which now that I think about it, is probably why I got confused before; why in tarnation did that user put in that extra ifeq stuff? Not that that changes how it should work, nor that it clearly didn't work at the time. If it works now, then no matter. Just keep an eye on them, will you? Some of them may very well still not work with that for other reasons. Or not. Depending on what the problem even was. 1234 ~ 16:42, 28 September 2011

New voting pages and stuff

• Hey Socky. I was gonna point this out in your latest forum topic, but I thought that maybe it would be best if I put this on your talkpage. I hope you realize that as an admin you have the power to create a voting page for undeletions. I don't wanna come off as aggressive or start a fight or nothing, but maybe it would be best if you created that voting page now and then delete your new forum topic that is really just a continuation of an old drama topic. Thanks! -- The Zombiebaron 22:13, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

  I would happily do that, Zombiebaron, but don't you think that would be another instigation for further drama? That's why I'm asking folks in a forum. If I can get people's approval for something, the thing can be created without any drama having to occur, but if I create the thing out of the blue, another admin can easily say "Nope. This isn't gonna happen." and delete it. Which would be yet another possible source of drama. No Zombiebaron, I don't think me waving around my authoritative admin wand is gonna do this issue any good. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 22:47, 2 October 2011

  Excuse me for my ignorance on this subject, I haven't really been following most of the recent discussion about undeleting pages. However, if you believe that there is a legitimate problem, you should fix it. Perhaps you can start out creating the voting page in your userspace and running it yourself? If you run the voting page in good faith I find it hard to believe that anybody would have a problem with it. -- The Zombiebaron 22:59, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

  I'm grateful for your faith in me, Zombiebaron, but people's reaction to my good faith efforts are not always very positive. Furthermore, I don't see any harm in letting people discuss their sentiments on the issue. If you're afraid of old drama being revived, I'll gladly enforce bans on anyone caught reviving it, if that's what you want me to do. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 23:48, 2 October 2011

  I just think that at this point more discussion will get us nowhere. What we need is for something to resolve this issue. Many users have expressed an interest in a formal undeletion process. As the most vocal admin on this subject you are probably the best qualified to resolve the problem. -- The Zombiebaron 00:01, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

  Can you blame me for being reluctant given the recent amount of drama surrounding my person, though? As for there being no point in further discussion, most of the discussion so far was limited to votes on either a vague option of bringing articles back in a more official way or using VFD for undeleting articles. Pretty much everything besides that was just irrelevant drama. For one thing, I'd like people to tell me which of the three options I mentioned they'd prefer. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 00:10, 3 October 2011

  I for one would prefer that the undeletion process be allocated to its own separate page, titled Votes For Undeletion, where the community could vote on whether a previously deleted article (which would at that point be saved in somebody's userspace) would be allowed back into the mainspace. Perhaps if you do not feel comfortable setting up this page by yourself, you should enlist the help of other admins. I suggest contacting Mhaille, I know he'd probably want to help resolve this issue. -- The Zombiebaron 00:22, October 3, 2011 (UTC)

Well, if it's up to me it'd still be eligible, but you'd have to ask an admin more involved in the running of PLS, like ChiefjusticeDS. If it's really an issue, we can always claim it was a collaboration. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 06:44, 3 October 2011

cool. If shit starts I will. Speaking of shit, I saw the deopping forum do. As a casual user who isn't here often, there are two things I care about, being able to write in peace and that the featured material is funny to someone with no onsite knowledge. That means only people pushing their - or their friend's - stuff on the front page unfairly, vandals or abusive members should be de-opped.

It's where a page is moved, with no redirect being created. Non-rollbacks can't do it, and maybe even non-admins can't do it. Not sure. Oh, btw, thank you, Commander Sock.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 8 '11 11:17 (UTC)

Yes you can, but not creating a pointless redirect that'd get deleted anyway is... less pointless. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 11:29, 8 October 2011

Redirect-suppression has a second, more-esoteric purpose: it creates a small rift in the space-time continuum, through which small crab-shaped body-snatchers can emerge. It's a conspiracy between the Church of Scientology and Opus Dei to destroy this universe from the inside out. Happy now, Shabbs? :)  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 8 '11 11:34 (UTC)

Categorising redirects

As a general rule, please don't do that; all it does is clutter up the categories even further and generally serves no purpose. 1234 ~ 22:20, 10 October 2011

As a general rule, sure. As an absolute law, not so much, though. Additionally, if it's funny, it serves this site's purpose. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 22:26, 10 October 2011

Great, I'm glad we agree. As such, I take we also shouldn't have any trouble agreeing that it shouldn't be done unless there's something particularly special about the redirect in question (although even then there'd probably be a better way about it), since it messes with maintenance, yes? I mean, we've found ways around having double redirects, and don't do that as a general rule, either - and by 'general', I do mean 'actual', even if it isn't written in stone anywhere. We generally don't write things in stone around here, after all. Or rather, we actually don't. Stone is expensive. 1234 ~ 22:34, 10 October 2011

Yup. And I'm not planning on creating any double redirects. Though I personally wouldn't mind if Redirect page was a double redirect (i.e. an actual redirect to itself). —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 22:49, 10 October 2011

Well, if any of you guys wants it back in mainspace, feel free to nom the page here. It's not an official voting page yet, though, so I can't guarantee anything. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 18:59, 21 October 2011

Well, mentioning that might have helped, but that would also be why you should talk to me first about such things - in this case, what Mattsnow said stands, and it is also standard practice to delete such joke noms after they fail these days, since they would have been deleted in the first place anyway, otherwise. 1234 ~ 19:02, 21 October 2011

Right, again, sorry for reverting you straight away. I'll make sure I talk to you about it first in the future. As for it arguably being a joke nom, while I can imagine a large portion of the for voters voting for as a joke, there's still a big difference between not wanting something on the front page and thinking it shouldn't be allowed in mainspace. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 19:09, 21 October 2011

Thank you. But mon, if everything someone wanted in mainspace were safe from deleting, we wouldn't be able to delete anything. We do have a crappy document and a horde of roving wombats to draw some lines for a reason, though. 1234 ~ 20:56, 21 October 2011

Well, sure. But if it'd been nommed on VFD and seven people had voted to keep it, I doubt there would've been enough other people that check VFD to vote to delete it. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 22:13, 21 October 2011

I should just bookmark the word "Thanks" and zap it right in here whenever I come by. Thanks for the nice forum and kind words, you kind of make me want to live up to them someday. You are a Prince among Paupers and Peepers. And thanks for digging out that Proto-badger page. It isn't mine, so I threw it up on site again, and now VFG is whole again. And thanks for the spelling fixes at a few of my articles a few days ago, featured with misspellings (and why not, it is 2011 and with the state of our education system nobody would have ever noticed, except you, a fucking genius).

...on that UnNews piece I did.

However, I'm getting the distinct impression that folks don't like the articles in my Les Pénis Grotesques series. Maybe I should lay off that theme for a while. ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 22 '11 9:45 (UTC)

Indeed, though some of them seem to want more repulsive fictional things to stick your dick in. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 09:51, 22 October 2011

Hmm...I spent about 15 minutes on that article, and pretty much stole the ending piece-meal from HowTo:Slice your appendages off with a rail gun, so I can see how folks might be left wanting more. When it has failed completely, maybe you and me might try giving it a better ending?  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 22 '11 10:21 (UTC)

Sure, but what kind of ending would it be then? —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 10:27, 22 October 2011

Definitely not a happy one. hur hur.

Not really sure, which is why I'm open to suggestions. Originally, I was going to photoshop an image of the beast itself, and do the reveal at the end, but I decided against that because I thought actually seeing the whole monster would ruin the joke. (It's really better in your head, I think.) But for one thing, maybe I could turn the images into wood-cuts, to be more consistent with the theme and the title?

Of course, no matter what we do, stories that are dick-related activate Lyrithya's hatred of the phallo-centric Western patriarchy that has oppressed her peoples for centuries, so she'll just vote "no" reflexively.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 22 '11 10:59 (UTC)

Yeah, the wood-cut idea might work. Since when did Western patriarchy disapprove of lesbians, though? —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 11:09, 22 October 2011

They...they don't. They just oppress them. You know, by making them "do it"...while the patriarchy watches.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 22 '11 11:15 (UTC)

Ah, of course. It's the voyeurism she dislikes. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 11:17, 22 October 2011

Also, it prevents them from marrying, and subjects them to stereotyping and discrimination...or something. I'm a li'l fuzzy on the details.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 22 '11 11:19 (UTC)

The marriage dealy has always confused me. It's not like they're not allowed to have some big fancy party with a fake priest (real priests have this phobia for gay people or something). —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 11:23, 22 October 2011

Well, if you aren't legally married, you can't legally inherit your partner's swag if he/she dies (barring a will, of course); you don't have power of attorney to make decisions for them if they're in the hospital, dead, or mentally incapacitated (once again, in the absence of a will)...and so on, and so forth. It's mostly the legal stuff, I think, and as for "civil unions"...well, "separate but equal" is a crock, if you believe the U.S. Supreme Court.

So, y'know. Oppression. Boo, patriarchies! Boooo.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sat, Oct 22 '11 11:31 (UTC)

Thanks for the vote! -- Sir Xam Ralco the Mediocre 15:55, October 29, 2011 (UTC)

A five-hundred-word post that comes with footnotes...and a burning question.

Howdy, Sock. After you asked me to animate that gif, I was suddenly imbued with the passion to learn all about the fancy-pants world of video animation. So I went and downloaded all the 3D modeling, rendering and animation software and video editors/non-linear compositors I could get my hands on. I've got Blender, Kerkythea, POV-Ray, Wings3D, Anim8or, Terranim8or, Debugmode's Wax, t@b's ZS4, Avidemux, InstantAVITricks, VirtualDub, Jahshaka, and three dozen others whose names I've forgotten already. (On my old Mac, I've also got Flash MX.)

Anyway, I suddenly realized this might be a tiny bit of overkill. Just the slightest. So I looked around on the web, and whaddya know, there's this set of GIMP plugins called the GIMP Animation Package (GAP) which seems perfect for my purposes.

Long story short: now that I've got GAP all set up and am familiar with it, I'd like to try out a simple animation, like, say, your request for a bouncy Wikipedia logo parody, before I get to the Big Rip animation. Unfortunately, I'm not sure which two ugly logos you're talking about. Did you mean this and this?  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sun, Oct 30 '11 6:23 (UTC)

Yup, those are the two I was talking about. And if you're gonna make a bouncy version you can drop the "The Free Encyclopedia" part. Our current bouncy Wikipedia logo doesn't have it either. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 15:32, 30 October 2011

original	current	my "hybrid"	"hybrid", no letters	bouncy bouncy!
Is this what you had in mind?  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Mon, Oct 31 '11 3:46 (UTC)

Yup. It's almost perfect, but combining the lighter shade from the new one with the darker shade from the old one has created an interesting effect. I'd like to keep that effect, but it should be somewhat less pronounced. You know what I mean, right? To the right of the image, as the logo gets darker, the lines of the puzzle appear lighter. If you could make those lines slightly darker and make them less voluminous in the right bottom corner where they stand out the most, that'd be terrific. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 09:58, 31 October 2011

Better?  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Mon, Oct 31 '11 17:23 (UTC)

Yup. Except now there's this bit of a puzzle piece's edge at the bottom center that's gotten a bit darker and is now more pronouncedly shaped like a tiny dick. If you could copypaste that part from the previous version that'd be terrific. Oh, and there's also a dark line at the top that's a bit too voluminous. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 17:37, 31 October 2011

I hope I got it right this time. P.S. You guys need to get "real" Halloween over there. Over here, it isn't just some excuse to get drunk, or for stores to sell candy to adults, who then use it to lure children. Ok, technically it is, but the real spirit of Halloween (ha, pun) is about autumn, and the harvest, and telling ghost stories around the fire while the storm rages outside. It's all very Gothic and/or pagan. Also, I thought it started over some'eres Europe a-ways. How'd you folks forget all your old Druidic traditions and leave it up us stoopit Americans to revive them? For shame.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Tue, Nov 1 '11 22:29 (UTC)

Yup, that's perfect.
Actually, it was based on a Celtic feast called Samhain combined with a couple Roman and Christian traditions. But around the time people were migrating to America (That's right, you're filthy immigrants! :P) only the Irish were still celebrating it. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 22:43, 1 November 2011

Just curious

I just moved a page and my life was threatened by a masked gun man who said that if I made any double redirects he'd eat my brain, presumably after he blew it out of my head. So... Err... My question is, what's a double redirect and how are they avoided? I understand and I wish to continue. . 00:01, November 1, 2011 (UTC)

A double redirect is a peculiar phenomenon that occurs when one redirect redirects to another redirect. It can be averted by changing the first redirect to point to the object of redirection of the latter redirect, thus annihilating the doubleness of the redirect. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 00:42, 1 November 2011

You have to kill the redirect with fire. Or a pike and garlic. Or a beheading. Or preferably, QVFD it! :) Mattsnow 00:47, November 1, 2011 (UTC)

Sadly, Belgian isn't an actual language. There's just Flemish and Walloon, which are Belgian flavours of Dutch and French. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 03:12, 1 November 2011

Incidentally, I had checked to see what language they speak in Belgium. The official languages are Dutch, French, and German. I've also read that Flemish is a combination between French and Dutch. -- PLEB SIR Lollipop (TALK) - updated on 1 November 2011, at 03:14

Not a combination, really. It just took a couple words from French and made them more Dutchlike, in a rather similar fashion to the way a lot of English words are based on French ones. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 03:19, 1 November 2011

I think Belgium is more concerned right now with getting an official government than working out the official languages. How long is it now? One and a half years without a government? Belgium will turn into a functionariocracy soon...no? --ShabiDOO 03:26, November 1, 2011 (UTC)

I know that we've been at it for more than a year and less than two years. Which is weird, because Belgium is pretty much a totalitarian state already.

The french/dutch debate creates tension and problems...but its nothing like the french/english debate in Canada which can cause all out economic problems and dont forget the terrorim in the 70s.

Those hot football titties and asses. Your edit looks fine to me. Damn that woman is vindictive (about double my level). I'm expecting Lyrithya's against vote in 3-2-1.....That's fine. I expected 2-3 against, at the least, and just hope for enough interest to overcome that. My record with UnNews is just shit. I just can't get stuff featured in that idiom. I seem to be 100% perfect with HowTo for some reason though. I looked over the news article (again) twice this morning and I have absolutely no clue as to what grammatical or prose errors need to be corrected. I think I do well for myself, considering that I'm a high school dropout, but I have a few more rules to learn and memorize.--    16:16, November 15, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, Lyrithya just added a comment pointing out that VFH is not a discussion page, which is probably good advice. The only way to prevent/defuse drama is to avoid large blocks of serious text. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 16:27, 15 November 2011

Agreed. And I just responded to Lyrithiya on her talk page. A comment like "Why should an article that the author admits was quickly half-assed and not worth polishing up be featured?" is not only a personal attack on the author but is also disinformation. I know, two wrongs don't make a right.--    16:40, November 15, 2011 (UTC)

I'll try to make it tonight; I've been caught up in the voices in my own head, and also saving one or two or five articles whose heads Zombiebaron put on La Guillotine's chopping block. ZB and Lyrithya laughed at me when I told them I was going to do the first part of that animation in Blender, and when those two numb-nuts laugh at you for over-thinking it, you know you're over-thinking it.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Sun, Nov 20 '11 16:39 (UTC)

I'd gladly redirect the latter three there, but I'd think the Australian constitution, aside from its failure to mention a Prime Minister, might be notable for some of the things it actually does say. Or if we had an article on Australian law (surely there must be some ridiculous laws out there to make fun of) it might be redirected there. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 04:51, 19 November 2011

It's the nature of the beast, or item of clothing if you will. It's not exactly the way I imagined it, but it's possibly better. But could you try uploading another version with a little bit more ripping before she makes the big hole in her pantyhose? I'd like to see the effect of the ladders in the nylon. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 17:41, 22 November 2011

Well, that's all the tearing she does on that leg. I would've done the other leg, but she takes a good 20 seconds or so on that one, and the tearing is harder for the matte to track, so I'd have to do the transition by hand. Can you give me the start and end points in that video that you'd like to have? Like you did with the anime videos. I'm bad at visualizing stuff.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Tue, Nov 22 '11 18:33 (UTC)

1:20 till 1:43 seems about right. Feel free to speed it up and leave out a couple intermediate frames, however. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 19:00, 22 November 2011

And the black layer should disappear somewhere around the middle of that, possibly slightly later than the middle. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 19:20, 22 November 2011

Ok. I'll have to scale it down, too, or the file size will end up being huge. It's too bad we can't use Flash video here, because an H264-encoded video of the same size and length is about 1/10th the file size.

Also, how long do you want the fade-out of the black layer to be? I only went with 10 frames, because I'm lazy.

(And how the **** do people's talk pages keep disappearing from my watchlist?)  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Wed, Nov 23 '11 7:40 (UTC)

Yeah, 10 frames should be about right. Another thing that might be worth considering (if you think it'll reduce the file size) is instead of doing the black layer fade-out, having the black fade into the color of the pantyhose and then showing the pantyhose ripping from really close-by (i.e. all you can see is a piece of the woman's leg covered up by the pantyhose) and then zooming out and revealing the whole picture, after which we see a little more of the ripping and then it ends. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 09:38, 23 November 2011

It's a music player that he needs a fancy schmancy GUI for, and I volunteered to design it a year and a half ago. Then I made some mockups, which he liked, but he wanted some "small" changes here and there. <insert_long_boring_story_here/>...so, eighteen months later, he's living downstairs and he's got a haircut just like mine (bowl-cut with a mullet in the back) and he's wearing the exact kind of clothes I wear, and...I think he may be fucking my girlfriend, too. He says he's not stalking me, though, which I believe, for some reason.  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Mon, Nov 28 '11 17:49 (UTC)

Socky: are you online? I've almost got the second version done. Would it be okay if I uploaded a video version for your approval, instead of the .GIF? An MP4 would be about 1/10th the file size, so it wouldn't take me as long to upload. And then if it looks ok, I'll upload the final .GIF  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Thu, Dec 1 '11 13:18 (UTC)

Well, I went ahead and made an .mp4, it should (should) open with MPlayer or VLC, or MPC-HC (windows). Let me know!  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Thu, Dec 1 '11 17:11 (UTC)

Hmm, could you change how fast it changes from one frame to the next? About twice as slow (i.e. half as fast) should be about right. Also, at one point the girl's just moving her leg and the bottom part of what we can see of her leg moves away from the camera (i.e. becomes darker, at around the sixth second of the vid and it happens repeatedly); if you could cut out a couple frames from that part to stabilize the image, that'd be great. Also, there are a couple frames here and there a bit after where it switches to the pantyhose with a tiny red blurb in them; if you could remove those instances, that'd be neato. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 18:50, 1 December 2011

Hey, did I do something that sucks? I see you are active on the templates. Did I do something wrong? I am certainly trying my best. Mattsnow 00:01, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

You forgot to put the {{VFD}} part in between noinclude tags. You don't want it to be transcluded onto the pages the templates are used on, you see. ; ) —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 00:07, 27 November 2011

As part of improvements, I'm trying to rewrite the whole Goa Tse Clan page to advertise where we can make decisions that can affect the whole of Uncyc. So here's the list of articles you must delete:

• User:Joe9320/Goa Tse Clan/Giratina's Warriors

That's all I want for you to delete. |Si Plebius Dato' Joe ang Man on Fire CUN|IC Kill | 10:46, November 30, 2011 (UTC)

Tag removal or something

Hey man, when you close VFD nominations, could you be a dear and not use rollback to remove the VFD tag from the pages, or something? When you do that it looks like you're being troublesome again or something and just gives the wrong idea or something. Edit summaries are good. They... make things clearer. So please use them or something. Something.

Or something. 1234 ~ 10:48, 3 December 2011

I normally wouldn't have done it that way, but if I had edited that article the normal way, it would've automatically removed most of the carriage returns (which were kinda the point of the article). —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 10:52, 3 December 2011

Wait, I just discovered that the article was actually full of whitespaces. They just didn't show up on the actual page because the wiki automatically turns multiple whitespaces into one when rendering them. That explains why any of the previous edits didn't automatically remove any carriage returns. Sorry for the fluke on my part. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 11:08, 3 December 2011

o_O Er... right. Good. Should I have any idea what you're talking about, or is this the point where we both smile, nod, and go somewhere else? 1234 ~ 12:37, 3 December 2011

Well, maybe if you took a look at Whitespace (programming language) it might explain a thing or two. Most of what I said can be summarized as "I wouldn't have normally done it that way and the reason why I used rollback eventually turned out to be invalid." But anyway, you don't have to worry about a thing. I'll use edit summaries and stuff in the future. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 12:49, 3 December 2011

Hello

Sorry to bug you ...repeatedly... but last month, Lyrithya said something about how the new Foolitzer looked like plastic, so I went back and added some gleam to it. I've also asked for her opinion on it; if you two like it, I'll upload the new...new one. :D  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Mon, Dec 5 '11 20:37 (UTC)

I didn't think the new version looked like plastic at all, but your new new version is probably even better than the old new version so feel free to upload it. His cheek looks kinda orange now, though. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 20:50, 5 December 2011

I didn't think it looked like plastic, either, and even if it did, well, so does the actual Pulitzer. But anyway. It's a medallion, so I guess...shiny! (I removed the orange.)  ~ BB ~ (T) ~ Mon, Dec 5 '11 21:11 (UTC)

After waiting seventeen years

For your twenty elected parties to nine parliaments and thirteen senates ... a coalition of ninety-seven parties have finally agreed to give it a go. The cherry on the pie is that your new Prime Minister is a French homosexual who speaks fairly good dutch for a Waloon.

It's only a minority government on the Flemish side. And that's basically because most Flemish people were stupid enough to vote for the troll party. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 10:56, 12 December 2011

They used to be called the Vlaamse blok when I lived in Flanders and they had the most politicaly correct slogan in the word: "aanpassen of opkrassen" which was directed to their beloved immigrants meaning more or ess "Adapt-or-leave".

There is so much that Belgium can teach us :) --ShabiDOO 12:11, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

They're called Vlaams Belang (Flemish Importance) now. They're the party that hates everything that's not Flemish with a burning passion. But the troll party I was talking about is another party; the N-VA. During the elections, they pretended to be the only sensible candidate, the one that would bring the change we needed. After the elections, they refused to create a government with the Walloon majority party, illustrating that all they wanted was a strong Flemish opposition. —Sir Socky (talk) (stalk) GUN SotM UotM PMotM UotY PotM WotM 17:07, 12 December 2011
