    FA666, you bagged this one in terms of practical knowledge. But I have to give props to Agent for those answers. I myself am really glad I didn't try for this category!

    Is anyone else miffed that the question only has to do with FFIX?! Of the three games in that category, IX is the worst. I would much rather have heard everyone's favorite materia combos and dividing party, or like... the best way to get Diablos early in VIII. Cos I sure wouldn't have even been able to care about this question, let alone answer it!

    I mean... well done, Boothy! Well done indeed!

    vote on whatever reason you want, but the questions are supposed to help you decide who would make a good representative for the chosen forums and also who is creative or funny, if that's what you like.

    So basically we're all taking notes for now, and there'll be one big vote later on down the road?

    Time for round two. Also, Agent six is not Linus.

    edit: I'll tell you how to vote after we get all the answers up. I don't want anyone voting without all the proper info!

    Here's the question and answer for the Lounge, General Gaming, and Arts and Writing forums

    Which is a cooler bad guy, Rocky Wrench or Repo Man? Also, please answer this question in the form of a poem.

    RikkuYuna89 (BAotW):
    The sound of your car being robbed in the night
    Look, it's Otto Maddox dressed in a tight
    leather jacket at the wheel of your car
    Rocky you can chase him from near to far
    But he'll just tell you this...
    It's 4:00am, do you know where your car is?

    Giggles (Sex-Slaves):
    Rocky Wrench, he's a super cool bad guy
    He thinks he's all that, which is definitely not a lie.
    If I had a choice, I'd choose him over pie!
    Rockey Wrench. What a cool bad guy.

    Wyllius (Conservative):
    Both characters present an escapist ideal which is entirely falsehood and must be crushed, as well as their respective owners being burnt at the stake as punishment until they are confirmed dead or until letting them loose to fall to the ground screaming is deemed sufficient. In light of today's literature standards, this no doubt also qualifies as a poem.

    King Bahamut (Pirate):
    Rocky vs. Repo
    by King Bahamut


    When confronted with this question,
    I was left with great distress.
    For out of these two enemies,
    I know not which is the best.

    I pondered hard in the early day,
    And well into the night.
    And finally it came to me
    Which one of these was right.

    To compare them both by look, you see,
    Would have no point at all.
    So the only way to choose, I say,
    Is a one-time bad-ass brawl.

    For in this bad guy deathmatch final,
    Rocky Wrench and Repo Man
    Squared up their shoulders, charged at each other,
    And then the battle, it began.

    The Rock popped out and propellered forth,
    Towards that FF villain.
    He launched a wrench, and then cried out,
    "I got me some RPG killin'."

    So then, the Repo Man countered strong,
    He dodged it with a zip.
    And with his IRS ID,
    He repossessed Rock's doomship.

    So now, they stood, evened up
    Both placed upon the ground.
    And rearing back their right-hand fists,
    They knocked each other down.

    They reached their feet, and then Rocky
    Reached back and chunked a wrench.
    It plunked that sucker on the head,
    And Repo Man did flinch.

    And using this climactic moment,
    Rocky Wrench let out a push.
    Repo Man then slipped and fell,
    Right upon his tush.

    And finally, now, the fight was won,
    The battle, now, had ended.
    And to the throne of coolest bad guy,
    Rocky Wrench ascended.

    Rocky Wrench is best, I say,
    With a furrowed brow.
    He threw a silver tool at me,
    It hit me. I said "Ow!"

    And so, my online forum friends,
    You now know which is better.
    Rocky Wrench over Repo Man,
    Let the votes go unfettered.

    THE END

    Axamenta (Newbie):
    Rocky Wrench is uber-cool
    Whereas Repo Man is rather lame
    Let's conclude he is a fool
    And decide he gets the blame

    For all the harm that's in the world
    Because he's got a hunchback
    And since hunchbacks don't twist and twirl
    To funky music, they lack

    A serious sense of rhythm 'n' blues
    No rock 'n' roll inside them
    Repo Man's got ugly shoes
    But that wasn't so ad rem

    Of me
    Because you see
    If you want to be
    As cool and funky as he *points at Rocky Wrench*
    You'll have to vote for the Newbie Partyy!
    However if you want be
    As lame as Avril Lavigne-y
    You'll have to vote for another partyy!

    Agent 3 (Mystery):
    Repo Man would be the best,
    because he wears a bright green vest.

    the only poem i can truly approve of is agent 3's, as none of the others voice support for repo man. wyllius's poem made me "laugh" though.

    it also has this tragic flaw of not going in repo man's favour. i'm afraid that makes it tripe.

    repo man isn't an "old member" and he would come post in this thread if some unnamed administrator who eats birds hadn't disabled his ability to post.
