Title: Ask Douglas stuff because he's always right and much better than you other noobs
Post by: douglas on January 20, 2009, 04:47:02 pm
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to discover The Truth(tm) about any issue you like, from one who is never wrong.  Ask away (unless you're genus, in which case form a coherent question first please).

First answer to the womenfolks here (and most of the menfolks too really): sorry, I'd rather just stay friends.  Except with RPG, obviously - he gets to be neither.

Why is it that you believe you are always right?
Because I am.

What record should I try to beat next in SA2B?
Trick question, the answer is none.  You should play a good game instead.

Science cannot definitively prove a proposition, as you should know; there is however an obvious null hypothesis (give an instance of my being wrong) and there is a weight of evidence supporting the hypothesis (occasions where I have been right), and therefore it is reasonable to conclude in favour of the hypothesis, shifting the burden of proof onto any who claim the opposite.

What game do you recommend me?
Baldur's Gate 2, Half Life 2, Ocarina of Time and Sonic 2 are all classics; more recent worthwhile titles are Fallout 3 (ignore the storyline though), World Of Goo, Bioshock and MGS4  (only really applicable for series fans though).

Do you like?
My default state of being is to mock rather than like.  For something to be liked by me, it must achieve at least Grade 1 Awesome.

Do you have any opinions on how something/someone is to achieve Grade 1 Awesome?

Not that I myself care, but for the sake of others >_>

Please rephrase your question in the form of something comprehensible.

You're not.  You're higher in the charts because of Affirmative Action.

By replacing the entire staff of Sonic Team with people who give a shit.

I have never played any Mega Man games, which makes it hard to compete in them.

I never said he couldn't because of TSC rules, noobcake.  'Can I' could be interpreted as a request for my permission rather than a request on the nature of the fundamental restrictions of reality.  For instance, he could have asked "Can I submit BS stats?" and both "Yes, but you'll be banhammered" and "No" are valid answers depending on the interpretation of the question.  In this case, an answer with respect to fundamental truth and the consequences thereof would be "Yes, but you will incur my displeasure for playing SA:DX in the first place".

This is a problem generally; human language is too riddled with such ambiguity to allow efficient communication of my infinite wisdom to you mere mortals, and you're not capable of understanding my perfect language.  We do the best with what we have.

Also, Should I make an 'Ask ___' topic too?
Also, What is your secret weakness?
Also, Is iji (www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php (http://www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php)) awesome?
Also, why am I posting in an 'Ask ___' topic when I secretly vowed not to?
Also, should I waste my time by getting back in the TSC chat?

And in regards to the 3rd and 5th question,/me binds douglas to truthfulness via machinegun connected to lie detector

Magnum started it.
Also, Should I make an 'Ask ___' topic too?
No, you should ask me questions, for that is the path to wisdom.
Also, What is your secret weakness?
I have no secret weakness.  Some of my non-secret ones are: I'm very allergic to ibuprofen and asprin (as in two of either would probably hospitalise me); vodka makes me ill due to a bad experience (everyone seems to have one drink this is true of); as we saw in the marathon, I can't play S3&K; 3D Sonic makes me sad; I cannot get up at a sensible time in the morning unless the F1 is on; and I'd rather be right than happy.
Also, Is iji (www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php (http://www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php)) awesome?
It may find itself elevated to the status of awesome if I play it.  In general I like and respect indie games, so it's got a good shot.  On the other hand that requires some free time, so don't expect it soon.
Also, why am I posting in an 'Ask ___' topic when I secretly vowed not to?
You can't keep away from my Field of Awesome.  It's like gravity, only with pwnage instead of mass.
Also, should I waste my time by getting back in the TSC chat?
Yes.  RPG's not around so the average IQ is running a little high.
And in regards to the 3rd and 5th question,/me binds douglas to truthfulness via machinegun connected to lie detector
You realise, of course, that polygraphs only detect stress, need calibrated/interpreted by actual peoples, and aren't 100% accurate?/me has just ruined the premise of every daytime chat show on the planet

If Doug were forced to fuse with you to multiply your awesomeness together, a DIV BY 0 error would occur, you would explode, and Doug would return to his standard form, heightened with what little you know about Sonic that he doesn't.

No.  You have nothing worthwhile to contribute.

Edit: Why am I still posting in 'Ask ___' threads?

You can't tear yourself away from me.

What level of awesomeness do I have?

You have earned my respect (in gaming at least), which elevates you to Grade 3 Awesome.

If I fused with you to combine my awesomeness with your awesomeness, what would happen?
Obama++, with the ability to pwn at 2D and 3D Sonic.

Why do I sometimes subconsciously sing those awesome 25-minute japanese medleys?

Your perverse subconscious finds them catchy.  On the plus side it can obviously take in loads of info if it's multiple long medleys.
