But then Dope would win the BP because you can’t transfer BP to yourself.

DOPE is one of us, too… and so are you. EVERYONE in this thread is the same person… resistance is futile.

[logic]But DOPE’s banned, so that would make him an illegal alt, so we’d all be banned and no one would get bp.[/logic]

How did you do this? Why does your displayed post differ from what you actually entered as your post?

It’s a simple trick that takes advantage of the way that Flamebate removes quotes when you quote a post. It removes the first quote-opening tag, the last quote-ending tag, and everything in between, whether or not those tags are actually used to form a quote. I tried to include the source in this post, but when I looked at the preview, I saw that apparently [ youtube ] tags aren’t affected by [ code ] tags, so it didn’t work properly.

Basically, you hide quote tags in image or youtube tags in such a way that part of your post is removed and replaced with an image, a video, or nothing. Here’s a sample:

[img]http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif[quote][/img]Post goes here[img][/quote][/img]

If you post that, it will show up in quotes as the Google logo, unless you have other quote tags in your post screwing things up.

Probably; there’s a slight chance that a late entrant could win, but it’s highly unlikely, and unless you go through the puzzles, it would be totally unfair.

So, Easter Bunny, what happens if C_Wenhoo picks option 3?

Also, I wonder if the trick I came up with has ever been popular in the RP forums. It seems that it might have been popular in GOTO 10.

HTML obfuscation to the rescue! Just copy that and write your post where it says “Post goes here”, and your post will turn into a rickroll when quoted.

EDIT: I screwed up somewhere. Currently fixing it.

EDIT 2: It might work now. I don’t fully understand how Flamebate parses BBCode; it does some weird stuff that I can’t explain.

EDIT 3: Maybe there just needs to be a line break somewhere between the quote tags.

EDIT 4: Okay, it should work now. I think there just needs to be a line break somewhere in the post. This could fail if you have conflicting syntax on the same line as any of the important stuff. I wonder what forum software Flamebate runs.

There is probably no way for you to win.

Going to have to make a decision soon. Summary so far:

MP: “I deserve to win, cute dog etc.”

DH0: Silent all these years.

The rest: “Just take the damn BP…”

Actually MP, it seems you got through the voting round with a bit of luck, no? DH0 made a deal, honest or not. Seems like he had more of an active strategy to win it.

A bit yes, however there was a lot of action going on on the Tubmails… for example, I managed to figured out that NJ made the deal with DOPE (zagerblag can confirm it). Besides:

– Both of us scammed Spkloi,

– Both of us didn’t get scammed by the others,

– Both of us did convince one person to help: however, DOPE made a deal with NJ and I convinced* zagerblag to help me out for free(So you see, it’s all in how you phrase it – this way I am the better one)

*) He might have simply used a coin or random number generator, true, but we’ll never find out for sure ;p

Also: You did luck out even more than I – potentialy – did, didn’t you? Log in to see images!
