EoFF Bandwagoneerism: A Social Experiment

**I Took the Red Pill** · 07-17-2007, 09:23 PM

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Everyone knows what it is. For the median age at the fora, it is a cornucopia of nostalgia, and everyone can identify with wanting to be one of the Rangers, or one of the bad guys, or Alpha etc. etc. Which makes it a perfect set-up.

I'm proud to say that in my testing of the power of the bandwagon, the experiment was wildly succesful. First up, assemble a team of Rangers who everyone knows, and who I actually like. Psychotic boosted our popularity by probably 500%, and everyone (including myself) wanted to bed not only the Pink Ranger (which is a given), but also the Black Ranger (in part to test the rumor about penis length, but that is irrelevant).

Within a few hours of the band of signatures, nubnubs were asking to be in it as an obscure Ranger from a later season, "CAN I BE THE BURNT SIENA RANGER", and requests of that sort. This gave me quite a chuckle, but it did not stop there. We were thinking about adding two more as Zordon and Alpha, but wow, I never expected that someone would strip the sig and call himself Zordon! I lol'd at this aswell. Of course, what I had hoped would happen, did happen, as the "Prism Rangers" had to make themselves a faction to oppose the Power Rangers. In less than a week, there were requests to become part of it, people forcing themselves in without asking, and rival factions arising. The experiment was quite a success.

Well now, Prism Rangers, we're taking off the illusion of the Power Rangers, and we've become something you can never, in your wildest dreams top, the A-team. Read 'em and weep.

Paraphrase for all you queers ready to say "tl;dr":
The Power Rangers were formed solely for the purpose of testing. The A-team now rules supreme.

edit: here's a challenge for anyone that's thinking about jumping on the bandwagon: how about you try and do something original for once instead of ripping off someone else's idea?

So, discuss Bandwagoneerism or something. I'm too busy lol'ing at the whole thing.

I love it when a plan comes together.
