Nope, you just do nothing and the game forever ends. |

You have one post to persuade a staff member to unlock the sarcasm thread.

Unlocking the sarcasm is the stupidest thing ever. I mean, there would be no fun at all gained from it. After all, it's just sarcasm. What's the fun in that? |

It's my favorite topic. It's obviously the best topic that currently exists on the Interguild.

I would be all for it. My original intent was that when perhaps when we wanted to say something with blatant sarcasm, we'd quote the post and respond to it in the thread. But the current method (rarely used) of saying something sarcastic and linking the entire statement to the thread works fine, too. But, no. I've convinced myself that I must unlock that topic now. Or perhaps later, since it's 2am.

I guess this round won't end until someone actually manages to persuade a staff member to unlock the Sarcasm topic?

I just wanna take a moment to express a healthy dose of frustration with the unlocking of the sarcasm topic. |

There have certainly been better threads, but in a way, it is actually kinda funny how blatantly bad the humor there is. Perhaps it would be better to just call it the opposite thread or something like that, where you say the exact opposite of what you mean, since that's what the thread really is, as opposed to sarcasm. But all that would do is get rid of the "link-sarcastic-sentence-to-sarcasm-thread" thing that I occasionally do and make the title more accurate.
The good posts on there are the ones that could actually pass off as being normal posts in other threads:
'Yaya' said: Totally worth it. 'Bmwsu' said: Getting this unlocked was probably the greatest achievement of this site.
But seriously, what are we doing about this one post round?

9/10 great entry. if i was on the staff, i would unlock the thread from this alone.
'Bmwsu' said: It's my favorite topic. It's obviously the best topic that currently exists on the Interguild.
5/10 there are many higher quality threads in this community, many of them created by the highest quality member, neezles.

8/10 do you know nothing about persuasion?
'jellsprout' said: I guess this round won't end until someone actually manages to persuade a staff member to unlock the Sarcasm topic?
3/10 I would say this is an accurate statement. without this post, no other staff could have figured this out.

7/10 and indeed it was. however, this is a reply and not an entry, yet i still feel like i have to judge it or else you'll rage at me.

4/10 this was much needed for us. thank you isa.

10/10 yes = no?

So wait, did jellsprout win because he did the worst job at convincing the staff to unlock the Sarcasm Thread (got the lowest score), and you didn't want the Sarcasm thread unlocked?
But that can't be, because according to a post you made on the sarcasm thread (" you staff suck. why'd you have to open this?"), you are very grateful for the staff unlocking the thread and praise them for their work. Additionally you said that without jell's post, "no other staff could have figured this out", so I'd think that would give him a higher rating.
Your judging leaves me confused, soccerboy. I am confused.

We need to right what was set wrong again.

I told jellsprout to start the round, and as a result jellsprout told other people to convince staff to lock the round, which ended up happening.

Don't give the proletariat false authority. They get an inch, they'll want a foot. Next thing you know, they'll be demanding a Count To 5000 topic, custom karma rates, the :sever: censor, and a Wikipedia page about the site. Squander hope while you have the chance.
COMING SOON: A giant meteor. Please.
Give me +karma. Give me +karma. |
