Change BU's User Title - A Monthly Contest.
« on: January 27, 2021, 06:09:55 PM »
Geo recently told me I should change my User Title to "Through fair elections, I" -which completes the phrase on the next line w/ my post-rank.  So I did.

Yesterday, with permission, I changed Solver's from "WPC absentee landlord" to "Soren's lackey".  We had some amusing back and forth about other possibilities, many not actually meeting AC2 community decency standards.  -Most involving humiliating submission/ sycophancy/sexual slavery to one Soren Johnson, a young man I understand some of you have acquaintance of and knew would never amount to anything.


SO - we're gonna have a good time here, making jokes.  It will be February Monday, and I need a new Custom User Title of the Month.  -In fact, the following Saturday will be the Ninth Anniversary of when we got serious about AC2, so something on that theme preferred.  Something that can meaningfully end in "Transcend" would be awesome, but not required.

The rules basically revolve around You Have To Talk Me Into It, so not cussing, not super-obscene, etc.  -Not that you can't suggest those in attempted humor -go ahead- just, it won't actually fly.  Funny would probably be the main priority, usually.  Let's have fun w/ this, and not leave it all to Geo.  Now I miss E_T and Green1.


[This just in] Uno points out that my avatar should be up for abuse, so that, too.  If the ideas good enough, hey, I'll do at least some of the work.  I'll tend to hold out for being provided the base image, mind.

For the fun of it, I could gift winners with the "Change Other's Title" Shop item, and let them do it to me themselves.

-Naturally, if trust is not kept, it will be wasted as soon as I come on in the morning, at very latest...

I'm not fooling with polls, but I hope y'all will informally vote on all suggestions...

And hey - no playing for blood with anything to do with [Sleezebag].  Not funny.

Be funny, thanks.

Have you interacted with Lorizael any?  That sounds like him.  Next wacky forum game: The Alphonse and Gaston of "I suck" have it out, anti-Thunderdome! ;lol

With all of the skulls and shoulder blades kicking around, were you to gather all of the alleged parts of St. Valentine one might be able to assemble them into a many-headed Super Valentine, destroyer of lonliness. This we would pay to see.

Bonus points for an avatar change...

Is there a character limit on the title?

Probably.  I guess I can go find out and report back ASAP.

I put a dash before every cluster of five tests, thus:  "-test test test test test ".

So you can count nine clusters of those, minus one it cut off one at the end - thus, about five more characters will fit on the first line, I count 31-32 characters and spaces to play with, stopping there.  Looks like it cuts off at about 200 char total with the ridiculous number of lines - I pasted way more clusters.

One cannot discount many lines as an option, though I find it inelegant to look at.

I changed the last "test" to "then".   There was one space after, then the field ended.  Close enough to 200 characters.

Okay by me if you've not gone to bed yet, Geo.  I'd like you to see the test, so I can take it off soonest.

Okay, I see 9 dashes with their 'test' sequences of 25 characters each.


Plenty of text space to put in whatever needs to be put in thus.

As we approached we were confronted by the ruined splendor of Sparta Command. The true immensity of the place became instantly apparent as our Quantum Tank crunched over the rubble and parked next to a shattered bunker, but the extent of the destruction took weeks to assess. The shielded datacore had sustained several massive breaches and smoke still billowed from the numerous cannon ports. There were few signs of human life.
~ Lady Deirdre Skye ‘Our Secret War’
