    Default Raistlin's Round 1: Here we go again

    I came to the Mog Blogs to edit my threads/posts into my round 1 blog thread, and realized I never actually made it. I am getting old.

    Anyway:

    What makes a good member?

    As far as I can tell, the most popular members either play (relatively) nice with others or have nice boobs. I’m operating on the basic assumption that I am not considered a “good member” (Shlup likes it rough and my puppies are small but pert and all natural).

    Sidenote: because I am twelve, I sometimes read "_____ member" as "_____ penis." This is why I almost always vote The Man in the Ciddies vote for "Weirdest Member" or a similar award.

    What makes a good CK?

    Someone who both posts a lot and commands a lot of respect. I guess that last part explains why you guys fired Jiro. ZING!

    What would you like to change about Eyeson to make it better?

    Delete Fluffy Puff.

    And then I’d also focus EoFF more on news writing, because I think that’s the best way EoFF is going to survive and get new members – to be considered a legitimate FF/Square news source. I slacked off on writing FFXIV stuff due to law school exams followed by the bar (combined, they sucked up almost the entire past 3-4 months), but I plan on getting back to that.

    What color would you prefer your CK tag to be?

    Pimp Unne purple. Just like the bruises caused by the back of my hand.

    If you were to be thrown into the thunderdome with one of the current staff, who would you go against and what would be your tactic?

    foa, and I would show videos of Die Hard and play a recording of Gary Oldman talking to make her heart melt.

    Or maybe Pike, so I could show her a moth and watch her scream.

    Or wait, maybe Shlup, who I would just insult until she had to masturbate.

    Really, the female staffers here have some critical weaknesses. You should probably be careful with how much power you give them, due to security concerns.

    What does FF(and EoFF) mean to you?

    Playing Final Fantasy VII some 15 years ago forever cemented my gaming preference and focus to JRPGs. But Final Fantasy is most important to me because it brought me to EoFF, where I have spent literally half of my life and met some of my closest and impactful friends.

    And really, where else would I find such a ready-made group of lamebrains to mock?

    Pricks make the most entertaining staffers. Just look at Shlup and Psy.

    I was really aiming that joke at bugging Shlup. Annoying off other staffers is just a bonus. Obviously Fluffy Puff is what's holding EoFF back!

    Hey Raistlin I started watching Dexter. Just thought you should know as you made the Dexter thread last time out.

    Psy: you're in for a real treat. The third and sixth seasons are a bit disappointing, but the first, fourth, and fifth seasons are fantastic. I think season seven starts up sometime next month, which I am looking forward to.

    Well I kind of lost my treat then because I am halfway through season six now. Yeah I started watching a while ago.

    You know what really pisses me off about Dexter though? The opening titles. I hate the music and I hate watching him cook eggs or whatever. I don't know why. It just really irritates me. What's wrong? Diagnose me.

    That part is problematic but I have to say I'm liking the rest of what he's saying. I really am.

    I assume you don't like it because you want Dexter to get on with the killing. I am diagnosing you with sadistic psychopathy. Get treatment before you start torturing delivery men.

    In all seriousness, it is pretty boring and overly long (like so many intros to premium cable shows).

    This is true. Can't believe I didn't notice the link before.

    I agree with you about the news articles. As annoying as you can be, I did appreciate the work you did during the editor competition.

    Any chance we can just get Raistlin onboard anyway?

    You say the sweetest things.

    I am reading up on FFXIV again and will start writing news for it again. I'm not willing to commit myself to more at the moment, but if I happen across something else new I'll write about it.

    We as in them. As you already noted, I carry no authority with or without a title. However I maintain that I know what is best for EoFF in relation to the position of Editor and would like them to bring you on board to make me happy.

    Shlup told me that EoFF existed to make her happy, and now you're telling me it's to make you happy as well? Is she lying to me? Is the point of EoFF to make everyone but me happy?
