Contest for 10BP - explain the other contest
|
|||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
I’m a bit confused by this contest – http://www.forumwarz.com/discussions/view/46844-four-hundred-and-fifty-brownie-points-outclbum-your-fellow-trolls-450-bp
From the looks of things some other people are as well. So the object of this contest is to explain that one. I’ll give 5BP to whatever in my opinion is the most helpful explanation, and 5BP randomly to any entry that explains anything at all about that contest or it’s creator. Hopefully this will clear things up. Sorry, no trolling, other than what is necessary to make a good entry. |

This is no longer the toxx post. The toxx post is now a few posts down, since I edited it instead of the original.
oh yeah, this ends, say, the day after the other one does? Log in to see images!

I wish i could help you.
I think he wants you you to post ****? But at the same time, he wants you to make threads that will last for like a week even though the contest is over tomorrow.
Subscribing to this one because I too would like the answer |

I honestly think the entire thing is an elaborate trolling attempt. He’s straddling the lines of what Ghax used to do in his contests by making them confusing and basically un-winnable by one way or another. Thereby “pulling one over” on the rest of the community. |

i think the other contest is a misguided attempt to stimulate discussion on flamebate. it would be more successful if it was well-written and fully thought out (it is neither of these). After reading through the other contest OP post several times, I believe, sincerely and without trolling, that it is possible the OP of other contest has some sort of learning disability or has consumed far too much of some intoxicating substance. |

it means you have to troll forumwarz somehow and that you win points somehow with your “trolling”. Also it says darkdespair is obsessed with falconfour ghax and that other guy. at the end of something (?) he will count the points and the one with the most points gets the half of 450 bp, the second place gets 3/4 of the half of 450 bp and the third place gets the a fourth of the half of 450 bp. |

Catt – you made me read that. Log in to see images! You are not the good person I once thought you were.
I’m pretty sure the contest is a tragic love story story about how DarkDespair5 can’t count and loves ghax, Merc and Falcon4.
The purpose of the contest is threefold: to give DarkDespair5 “I’m a **** up” attention like his oft mentioned heroes, an attempt to gain street cred with the “Create sitewide chaos that results in mod/admin action” option, and an attempt to raise his flamebate score since his whoring contest failed.
Overall things would be easier if a mod closed the contest now as the one day deadline thing is in direct conflict with the “keep it in the active topics for a week” thing.
No interest in BPs, just here to help. Log in to see images! |

Well this is easy. DarkDespair5 wants us to try to mess up the otherwise perfectly wholesome and clean FWZ community by giving us points from trolling withing very restrictive and complex set of rules, while awarding our efforts with points that transform magically into a measly small amount of bp. Counting these points is such an hellish task I doubt this contest will work as planned. Also these points increase the time the contest is open by a random factor, or maybe it does not, there was only a small reference to the possibility of expanding the time the contest is open.
In short: ****ty contest, stay clear.
And Im doing this for the bp |

This post is just a place holder. In the future, minutes, a few hours perhaps, I will replace the text in this post with an emoticon or possibly a single phrase. A curious historian, wading through the muck and filth, will look upon this and wonder what was. |

The other contest is a scavenger hunt type deal, with players being dealt points to each other. Each post that gets 7+ points bumps up the BP he will be giving out at the end. The total BP pool will top out at 450. The poster with the most points (points outlined in first post) will win BPs outlined in initial post. Just a contest it seems to start a hullabaloo on the boards.
Wow hullabaloo is a word in the firefox dictionary, yet firefox is not. Who knew? |

DarkDespair5 is ghax’s bum buddy
That means, his contest is most likely a scam contest and you won’t get anything out of it, just like ghax’s contests. The confusing as **** rules should’ve been enough of a giveaway.
I know I didn’t explain about the contest, I’m rather explaining as to why you should’nt bother entering. |
