Tactics Advance isn't really 'new' anymore, is it?

My second question isn't really feedback, more like curiosity, but who wrote the description for the FFXII Forum?

Description for FFV isn't so great either. I think Bleys wrote all of these after that one time where some joke was being done and all of the descriptions where changed to something, but the original ones weren't saved and this is the result...or something.

Yeah, I'll take the blame for FFXII. I thought it was funny, everyone else wanted to cut off my knackers with a chainsaw.

I don't have a problem with the substance of the discriptions, just the accuracy. X did have a water sword, after all.

with the size I keep my firefox window the word XENOSAGA always appears alone on the second line of the Gen Sqeenix forum and it makes me think I should post about Xenosaga especially in that forum.

Yeah, I'll take the blame for FFXII. I thought it was funny, everyone else wanted to cut off my knackers with a chainsaw.I thought it was hilarious, personally.I think Bleys wrote all of these after that one time where some joke was being done and all of the descriptions where changed to something, but the original ones weren't saved and this is the result...or something.People kept protesting and demanding a forum for FFXII, so Bleys made one and then gave it that description, to halt their cries for further change. I think.

If it's been there since Bleys was on staff I don't see any reason to change it now.

Actually, everyone was bitching for an FFXII forum(or description, I forget which) and Bleys said the exact words shown in the forum description, and someone said, "Hey, <i>that</i> should be the forum description" and Bleys was all "Hell yeah!"

Funny, random descriptions are good. Do we really need to explain what's going on in, for example, the FF7 Forum?

I like the ff9 one best-- who came up with that one?

It and three others were ripped off of <a href="http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php3?date=2001-08-17&res=l">Penny Arcade</a>, of all things.

I thought it was Bleys because of the 'sod off' bit. Thank you for confirming it. Thank you also for removing the 'new' out of the TA description. Oh wait, you didn't do that.

Oh, Bleys said it, all right. Making it a description was my idea, though.

For the record, "sod off" isn't entirely foreign to my vocabulary, but I can't really see myself saying "knackers."

*showers kishi with credit*

That reminds me, I have to take a shower.

EDIT: I have noted it on the record.

EDIT2: Ok, here's what I have so far:

'knackers' - Bleys
'sod off' - Bleys, kishi sometimes
'can't be arsed' - The Man
'(_______ anyone?)' where ______ represents some isolated and unrelated instance used to 'prove' a broad and enveloping point - Raistlin
'panzerfascist' - Calliope

Good job on repeating yourself there.

I tried to think of something else to say in that thread, but there are no other appropriate words for that travesty.

What, don't you want to debate it with him?

I only debate when I give a damn about the subject matter. Oh, and also only if there's a chance in hell that an actual debate could happen. *smacks Kishki*
