The Spring (!) '11 Screen Name Competition

Hello and welcome to this Fall Spring, apparently, edition of the Screen Name Competition. I am your host Ouch! Agent Proto Jiro! I am honoured to be here and running such a prestigious contest.

Our UnOffical Screen Name Hall of Fame now has, by my count, 22 delicious names. Last year, in a gruelling battle, Mr Twisticles took top prize over Naomi the Insane. I can't say I support that decision but EoFF has spoken!

It's time now for us to add a new name to the list. There are 128 names in this tournament, a number that works. Any more it'll go too long, any less, we'll see plenty of complaints. If you have any complaints, send them to Agent Proto or Ouch! This is their responsibility! :colbert:

If you don't end up seeing your name included, that doesn't mean I don't like your name. Promise.

So before I get this tournament started, let's get some hype going (and hopefully get this event on way!) Rules will be explained at the start of the first round, so look forward to that. We'll start sometimes later tonight, and each round will last for two days before I announce results!

Also, the UnOfficial Screen Name Hall of Fame in alphabetical order:

48 hours to get your votes in, folks! Also, in case you're wondering (Proto), the order was decided by way of random list generator. That's why Proto has Mikeneko Rocker -- Tim first up :hahaha:

The Eyes on Final Fantasy Spring Screen Name Competition is proudly sponsored by the Poké Party.

You bet the Poké Party are proud to bring this event. :D

It would have been really funny if BoB was up against The Shoeless Hobo in round 1. :p

several divisions will be close this time.

There is only one T in my name, Dak.

Interesting! I'll send in my votes soon, I swear. Good luck with counting the votes, Jiro! :D

Also, wouldn't this be more suited for General Chat, considering it's one of the more important events?

The Wonder Square will slowly become less of a cesspool as events are moved there. Little by little :jess: I will see how activity is after 24 hours and move if necessary. Tell all your friends it's happening!

Apologies for the misspell, NCG! I typed everyone of the names by hand so there's bound to be a few mistakes. If you find any more, let me know!

I haven't started counting votes but I've got a funny feeling there are going to be some tie-breaks needed :D

I have now voted! :monster:

I'll vote :D

Well, you have less than 33 hours to send in your votes. The rounds tend to go fast with only 48 hours to vote.

I'll vote later, I promise.
I just wanted to whine that I'm up against Evastio!
I can't beat that!

I would like to clarify that I picked up the tournament from Proto who then picked it back up from me when I got lazy. I forget who Proto picked it up from (if anyone!).

I'm still lazy, by the way.

Oh god, why does your title say that? That's painful to read.

I cant read the first page of this thread, if someone could copy and paste the tournament list I would be much obliged

There you go HC~ I btw, have voted ^^

Voted!

I notice a lot of highly inactive posters in this competition such as The Shoeless Hobo when many a more active member is left out. I'm not afraid of taking BoB's wrath when I say theres far more deserving members on this forum than that tired, tatty old hobo to being in this competition. Thanks to the huge amount of campaigning for it that name has won just how many times? It isn't even that good a name, I'm pretty sure we had this discussion last time about the name being in the competition too.

Perhaps a change in the rules so that if you have won or come runner up in x many screen name competitions over the last 4 or 5 competitions you're automatically removed from entry to the competition in favour of shaking things up and making things more interesting. If people really are that big a deal we can have a Screen Name of Screen Names competition once a year where the only entrants are those who have won a Screen Name competition. (would need an exclusion rule like if you won the screen name of screen names competition 2 times running you're excluded from winning in the 3rd year) idk, this is just me musing aloud here or not so aloud if you get the fact that I'm sitting here silently striking away at my keyboard. I'm just a little fed up of seeing the same old screen names crop up all the time, in particular that one "The Shoeless Hobo" which is tbqh mediocre at best (not saying I've got a better name, just pointing out it's really not that great) which seems to infest and through controversy or bias wins so often.

You just dont want me to make top 4 again.

I voted

thanks KD

You just can't help it, can ya? :p You can take over if you've got the itch!

Btw I took this list from users who have posted in the past two months. The Shoeless Hobo hasn't posted in the past two months, but I gave him my position. Shameful that none of you noticed I was missing!

EDIT: That's what I came here for. All of these divisions are tight races. We have a couple stand out performances, including three names who are on a perfect streak. I still want to see more votes though! Just over 24ish hours until we wrap this first round up my friends!

EDIT2: The Shoeless Hobo has never won a screen name competition. Any names that win are automatically excluded from subsequent competitions. Face, despite currently having a different face, was excluded, as was Mo-Nercy despite dropping his third power. Runners up are still eligible to win, however Naomi the Insane who was runner up last time has not been seen since.

We can run a championship round when there are more names.

Death By Moogles also changed his name to Mogi :p

I noticed your name was missing, but I figured you remover your name for someone elses. :p

Ah yes, Mogi! See I think he could win again with that name, but gotta give everyone a chance! :D

And be second place forever? Laaaaaaame.

ShlupQuack was runner-up a few times. If there were to be some sort of screen name championship competition with winners only, she would be eligible to join that.

Still looking for more votes! There aren't any ties at the moment, but nearly every race is looking at a one-vote difference!

Agreed, everyone should vote for me in protest!


Actually, vote for Evastio, his name is brilliant :D

Why do you think your name is not good enough? :D It's awesome.

We've got a few ties up in the mix now, so you have to get your votes in if you want your favourites to win!

Also because having ties is a pain and there is never anybody online to be a tiebreaker on when you need one. :p

I think that instead of voting, I will complain about:

a) the selection of usernames
b) who I'm paired up against
c) the winner

Cause I'm a rebel!

Fight the power!

Ive been runner up... to someone who never posts., then I came in 3rd

Votes are in. Results incoming!

Ooh, exciting. I wonder how things go!

Plus next to a name means our lovely friends in #eoff broke the tie for us!

Fun facts:

• NorthernChaosGod was the first person to break a streak, ruining Shaibana's chance for a perfect run after 6 votes.
• Marshall Banana also had a perfect streak after 10 votes, until Iceglow decided to pull a dick move.
• The two names who maintained a perfect streak were eternal essence and Genuis Lynx.
• There was a pretty even distribution of people who voted for themselves, people who abstained, and people who voted for the other guy.
• Chocobos are more preferred than foxes after the Goldenboko - Baloki battle.

Next voting brackets will be up shortly.

Herp da derp... I'm still in this thing?

Ah, I figured not voting for myself would do me in. xD Or out in this case. :shifty:

I was funny expecting to lose to Jessweeee♪ :p

Already voted for round 2. :bigsmile:

qwerty's bull:bou::bou::bou::bou: early votes reminded me that I forgot to say "voting starts now and goes for 48ish hours". Go wild!

One day I will make it past the final four D:<

I lost :p

Round 2 has been pretty interesting! Nobody from the first round has continued their perfect streak, and only two names currently have a perfect streak after 7 votes!

I voted, I also think that I'll be responsible for the largest vote swing over 2 rounds (Winning by 12, down to...let's say losing by 10).

*fixes Jiro's initial post so he can see the rest of the thread* Better.

And now, on to official business. Go Hobo!

What are you fixin' in the what now? xD

Half of your initial post was made up of the announcement of Mr. Twisticle's victory (likely hidden by various tags you had after the list of winners and before Mr. Twisticle's winner bit). There was a noscript tag included amongst other things and in IE7 (used at my work) I couldn't see anything beyond the end of your post - not even the edit button, which meant I had to do a bit of work to get the post edited. :p

Either I was sabotaged or that was Proto's fault :monster:

No. This is all your fault, Jiro. :colbert:

Well I dunno what happened then :monster:

In other news, get voting pals. :D

Where can I find this voting pal you speak of?

<---- :D

So I actually got 6 votes...then someone broke the tie and I lost?
Damn it, I knew I should have voted.

Yes you should have! Let that be a lesson to everyone!

I was kinda surprised my name still makes the list.

Yeah. You should take that one up with Psychotic.

I think it's funny

I'll be in chat for some more Tie breakers Jiro :p otherwise I cba to vote

Even when not paying attention I kick ass!

It's almost time for results, right? Yeah, I've got some votes to tally and then #eoff can break some ties for me. Get excited.

Remarkably, no ties to be broken!

Fun facts:

• The strongest name out of this round is GhandiOwnsYou, who wasn't so dominant last time

• Poor Loony BoB can't champion smittenkitten after Dr. Acula knocked her out, but he's still in the race as are The Shoeless Hobo and Citizen Bleys.

I'm going to be the first voter every time at this rate :bigsmile:

Three minutes. Three minutes. You are ridiculous my good man!

It would have been even sooner if my dog didn't walk by. I had to pet him because he is so adorable. :kaoclove:

Voted! I'm glad I'm still in it!

I would have voted sooner if qwerty's dog hadn't walked by. I had to pet him cause he's so adorable.:kaoclove:

As long as he did it with the dick move of posting "- CCCOCCOMBO BRRRREEEEAAAAKERRRR!!!!" after every one it's acceptable :D

It's Genius Lynx not Genuis! :stare:
Genuis sounds kinda french and cool though XD

With the force...

You're right. I'll force my way in there...

The two strongest names at this point are Genius Lynx and Melissaur, just so you all know. Get voting!

Thanks for ruining the surprise, now we know they're going to advance. :monster:

I assumed it meant that so far they've had the most overall votes. :confused:

OMG REALLY! I'm so excited now.

They've got more than a one vote lead on the opposition is what it means. They're not necessarily going to advance :monster:

I like volcanoes a lot, actually. :kaoclove:

Now who can say, I would like to see Shaibanana go through to the final.

• Three names scored ten votes, three names score nine votes and five scored 8.
• The Shoeless Hobo was knocked out by the last vote. There were also a few votes against him for political reasons (Hi BoB!)
• The White Wizard of Fynn, the only currently active member left in the Thunder Division, lost out this round.
• Consistently strong contenders Skogs, GhandiOwnsYou and NorthernChaosGod all had their runs ended this round.

YES I CAN, IT FEELS LIKE... Waffles?!

Mellisaur and Lynx are not up against eachother yet... That's for next round, unless Will or TT knock them out first. :p

Jessweeee♪ is going to win her round by a wide margin.

Group 4 will be the one to watch, they are both very good names and it will likely be down to the final vote.

I voted first again, anyone want to try and beat me to it, there are only 2 chances left to do so... :bigsmile:

I tried!

Okay! Let's take a look at each Divisional Champions!

Boulder Division - Unbreakable Will
Unbreakable Will is a much better name than Unbreakable Rocco, no doubt about it. It easily won the Boulder Division.

Cascade Division - Genius Lynx
Is Lynxie a Genius or what? Again, a nice screen name that have no real match in the Cascade Division.

Thunder Division - Trumpet Thief
Trumpet Thief stole this division it seems. There were several other good names, like yours truly, that could have won the Thunder Division, but it was Trumpet Thief who took it.

Rainbow Division - Melissaur
I sincerely hope Melissaur doesn't ever change her name to something as stupid as Melgle. Do it, and suffer the consequences!

Soul Division - Jessweeee♪
Weeeeeeee~

Marsh Division - Shoeberto
I'm quite surprised Shoeberto won the Marsh Division as there were better names that could have won! But that's not to say his name doesn't stand a chance. One could say that it's a big improvement over his previous screen name Hsu.

Volcano Division - Marshall Banana
Marshall Banana is actually a wonderful screen name. So was ShlupQuack. However, ShlupQuack never seems to win it despite doing well in past competitions.

Earth Division - Dr. Acula
And finally, we have Dr. Acula. I recall Del Murder once never figured out why this screen name was so witty, but once he noticed without the period, it becomes DrAcula, and that my friends is why Dr. Acula won the Earth Division.

I thought Mel and Lynx hit it up this round, I'm confident they will both make it through though! They have been consistently strong.

Let's hope! Rofl Melgle!!

I lost in the first round...to someone I've never even heard of. These are sad days :[

You should think of a name then :p

Del told me off when I tried to :[

That was one of the most shocking matches. I was sure you would face ♪ for the final match of that bracket. :p

After much thought (all 5 seconds) I have decided that I will name one of my Dragons after the winner of this contest, and that the winner will also decide which Dragon they wish to share their awesome name with.

BoB threatened to gut me, but I still want to change my name to Extreme Wheelie!

Not as many voters this time, a bit disappointing! We're getting to crunch time, support your favourites! Results are incoming~

Just so you all know, voter number 11 (the ones in the third column) are mine. I run a transparent ship! It was the first time I voted too, but 10 votes was kind of sad :p

As far as I'm aware, Dr. Acula is actually a lady (note to self: do your research) which means that 3 of the four remaining names belong to female competitors! You go gurls. Next voting bracket incoming!

Final Four, FULL THROTTLE

1.Unbreakable Will
1.Melissaur
2.Jessweeee♪
2.Dr. Acula

This is crunch time guys. This decides which two names will duke it out in the finale!

I beat qwerty! /smug

Unbreakable Will vs. Dr. Acula would be a great final. Here's hoping! You know what would have been a cooler final, though? smittenkitten vs. The Shoeless Hobo. Hobo would obviously win. *nod*

Voted. I totally hate you guys.

After a total of FOUR (4) votes (my favourite number!) we have all names level. Not a single person has voted the same combination. You're all crazy I tell ya.

My vote goes to melissuar and jesweeeeeee

You're not supposed to reveal that -.-

Make sure you PM your votes rather than posting them. I don't think there's any real harm in saying who you voted for, but I'll let Jiro judge on that. So many people have said who they want to win each round that it's not that different from saying who you voted for. :p

Convention is that you keep your votes a secret. Obviously if you say "I'm rooting for Jessweeee♪ and Melissaur to win!" (and I am) then we know your votes (I haven't voted), but it's nice if nobody comes straight out and says it :p

Also yeah, anything said here isn't counted on official tallies, so Mognet Message your votes or your favourite might miss out!

OMG!!! I so made it!

That was the greatest mystery of this competition :O

Man, does Dr. Acula even post here anymore?

Isn't it more about the screen name rather than the person behind the name for this competition? Besides, I recall seeing her around before. I'm sure she has a busy life. :P

It was more about a name I haven't seen in awhile than trying to get her disqualified :p

Well it has been a tight race, but now it's time for some results!

We're also looking at a full female final here!

The Decider

Melissaur v Jessweeee♪

OMG!!!!!!!!!
voted

No appreciation for the pun. :(

Good luck to the two of you! It's a tough call.

Voted. :excited:

I'm not going to accept less than a dozen votes so make sure your friends vote too!

So, do we have a winner yet? :bigsmile:

I'm so excited to see who won!! JIRO WHERE ARE YOU?!

I was hoping the rapture would come to pass and you'd never find out! I have a little tie to break, back soon~

WE started with 128 names. It was a strong bracket of 128, no doubt about that. Right from the get go, things were tight.

And then we had 64....

...and then 32...

...then 16...

...then we cut it down to the Final 8 names, the best of the best!

And from there we cut it to 4, four the magical number four. These names were phenomenal, best of the best.


And then we came to two. Jessweeee♪ versus Melissaur! WHO WILL WIN?! FIND OUT IN A MINUTE

The winner of the 2011 Spring Screen Name competition is...



(SPOILER)Not yet!
(SPOILER)You've got to want it!

And that's that! Thank you to #eoff for tiebreaking for me, and a big Thank You to everyone who voted! The winner will now find their name on the UnOfficial Hall Of Fame!

I called it. /smug

Weeeeeeeeee♪ Congrats! XD

I guess my voted was the end of me :( I should have voted foe myself xD

Oh jesus christ x'D a new name for the runner up! Good luck next time!

Well I've been waiting until I got knocked out to change it. Then next thing you know I'm in the finals -_- "No way Ill make the final 16" "No way I'll make the final 8" "OK NO way I'll be in the last 4" ".... Alright, If I make the final 2 I'll just die" The whole time I just wanted to change my name!

I hope they will make me Extreme Wheelie now!

Even if they don't I'll call you that

Let this teach all you noble people, voting against yourself is never a good idea xD

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhh

Congrats

Don't change your names :stare:

You'd probably have stood a better chance with that name, Mel.

I didn't change my name because I lost this. I wanted to change it before this even started, I just didn't know what yet. Then half way through I decided on a name but couldn't change it because I was still in. And I don't choose my screen name because I think it'll win the contest. I just like it.

Congratulations to all the winners.

I was about to come here and say the exact say thing...

Congrats!
