Kill Smittens Pool

This is so tickling. Boda was just so upset and whiney about the fact that neither I nor anyone online at the time thought he should earn the pool ("you're all just Itan alts!!") that I took pity on him, and offered him a free rematch, if only he would drop this nonsense.

So Boda declared, on 100, that he had no qualms with the first match, and that there were no shenanigans.

Alrighty, rematch! Pew pew, Boda boom (far more easily, I might add) aaaaaaand...

sure enough, he can't shut up about it. Hah what a child. Personally I think it was worth offering the rematch just to find out that he's a whiney dishonorable prick whose word means absolutely nothing... he will say whatever he has to to try and get what he wants. Sure, the extra (and easy) free kill was nice too. But really, we must wonder, is TRS paying Boda to flame this thread?? We now know Boda's word is for sale, so why should we believe anything else he says here?

It's too bad, he actually seemed like a half decent pilot and was nice enough when talking football... but to throw such a massive unending stink about what is a pretty insignificant thing (and then to bring it out of character because you're jelly of Electricity) just shows rather weak moral character. I guess there truly are no respectable Falcons fans

TRS: Your illusion of composure fades further with every new post. If you really are so committed to waving your hands for attention in here, at least get back to your earlier (relatively) clever and on topic posts. (Please... for the good of your own image if nothing else)

Harpo: I appreciate the effort, but I'm just too magnetic of a personality to keep all my fans out of this thread

And now, BACK TO YOUR TOPIC!

Conflict Diamond: Now now, that's a Boda argument to make. I forfeited, and in so doing, Electricity killed me in spirit. It really hurt, like an arrow through my heart that has been lit on fire and poisoned and then right when it starts really throbbing someone twisted my nipples with icy-hot on their fingers. Death would've been preferable. I mean, not really, because then I would've had to fly down another valk... but the point is Electricity won fair and square because he is a much better pilot

Electricity: I agree that Boda did have a point which is why I offered him the rematch. However, nothing in the original rules said either way. His argument was based on that the challenge title is the "Kill Smittens Pool," and that he did kill Smittens (albeit after losing -> challenge over) but as any armchair lawyer knows, titles/headers/etc have no bearing on the actual contract. In addition, I asked everyone on 100 for their input, and everyone (most of whom are some very nice chaps I haven't even met yet) agreed that he definitely did not win the spirit of the challenge. I thought we had things resolved when he agreed their weren't shenanigans, and I agreed to give a rematch, but I forgot to reckon for this rat's total lack of honor (and general whininess)

Historian Pizzasgood: Thank you for the impartial review of what happened for those who missed it. It's unfortunate that this action will probably get you branded a hacker/lagger/script-cheater in the future.e

DeathSpores: Ah the old LeberMac school of thought. It has been largely successful, if you trace its history. Although I would suggest consuming ridiculously unsafe levels of tequila before attempting.

idd: Please do :) That would officially make this my most successful thread ever! I mean, it already done pretty good-- it's brought me 500% the combat I was otherwise getting, it made good ol' Electricity a bit richer, it outed Boda as a middle-schooler, and got TRS all riled. If it also added +1 pilot to the 'verse and 9.99 to GS' wallet, I'm pretty sure I'll win Best Forum Post for 2014!!

Sometimes I wonder if you actually believe the dribble that comes from your fingers touching the keyboard.
Nov 04, 2014 smittens link
I don't think anyone should believe anything I say

But I know they shouldn't believe anything you say, since you know, your word is kinda absolutely worthless :P By your own admission no less!
Nov 04, 2014 smittens link
Hmm wait... but if Boda's word is worthless... and Boda says that his own word is worthless... does that mean it's actually worthful?? Hrm. We might need another thread to solve this!

The only truth that has been proven...from one end of the universe to the other: Warranties really do reduce the risk of failure. I propose the argument be solved with a duel using only powercell blasters.

How about...

A RACE AROUND THE WORLD!

Hmmm smittens doesn't know who I am.

We have a problem here.

I don't remember who you are either, other than that I always confuse you with Kabuloso. Probably because you have such a similar level of irrelevance.

Wait, Smittens is back? Damn.

Anyway, contest rules do not require the Break-a-Razor challenge, so contest automagically sucks a slimy dong. Try again, Smittens. Try harder.

Aw, you do remember :')

Blue Circle is Ecka.

Also a cheap brand of washing powder in the UK, I suppose that's a good way to describe his fighting skills too ecka always fights like a washing machine, round and round and round and round...

Notice to cease and desist.

It has come to my attention, that:

a) A thread has been started, and perpetuated, titled: "Kill Smittens Pool".

b) A pilot did kill Smittens, by all standing terms of the "Kill Smittens Pool", at the time of the killing.

c) The pilot that did kill Smittens was not awarded the pool, by merit of an unusual circumstance that was not covered in the original terms.

d) The circumstance precluding payment was some fact other than failing to kill Smittens, by the then agreed upon terms. To wit, the other pilot died before and/or in the act of killing Smittens.

While I will not presume to dictate to Smittens what terms he should offer for his personal challenges, I would like the nomenclature to be as least reasonably correct.

I hereby insist, by merit of the "Truth in Advertising Act", that this thread be relabeled accordingly, or that this thread be discontinued in favor of a more accurately labeled thread, and that Smittens Challenges be referred to in a manner more reasonably descriptive of the terms of those challenges. If the actual terms are, to survive killing Smittens, or to best Smittens, or otherwise something other than literally just killing Smittens, then please label the challenge accordingly. I have no objection to reasonable terms, that may not be explicitly stated in the title, such as insisting on a fair fight, and advance notice of intention, and scheduled matches. However, issuing a challenge on par with a "Kill me Pool" is an act of egotism, and while I have no objection to egotism, I do have objection to false or unjustifiable egotism. Change the title to what you can actually back up, or do not expect to maintain any credibility.

This is why people just need to use /duel.
Nov 05, 2014 Roda Slane link
And then you could call it the "Duel Smittens Pool". Call it what it is.
Nov 05, 2014 smittens link
Roda!! It is just so fantastic how many people are coming out of the woodworks just for me :)

I will say I respect your efforts, and if an advocate had made that argument for Boda at the time of the incident, this would be a different story. Unfortunately, my gut reaction for how to handle this all was unanimously endorsed by the rest of the universe, and even by Boda himself.

Because the challenger explicitly renounced any claims of shenanigans and furthermore agreed not to pursue any legal action, he was offered a rematch. We can produce these logs to the court if necessary, although they will have to be retrieved from a 3rd party IRC bot as the Defendant did not think that Boda was sufficiently ninny as to require the logs be saved.

As a result, Roda's well crafted argument must be thrown out, and any further advocacy must be made in the form of an appeal to a higher court.

Finally, I would like to formally request that Boda pay damages of 10 million credits to Smittens or RedSmittens for breaching his own agreement to stop being a ninny. This can be sent in the form of a one-time 10 million credit lump sum, or in 305.05 payments of 32,782 credits.

Any agreement between you and boda, is between you and boda, and I have no comment on such.

If you wish to continue to call it the "kill smittens pool", between you and boda, I have no objection.

If you wish to continue to call it the "kill smittens pool" in a public forum, where killing smittens is not the actual condition for obtaining the pool, I object.

Call it what it is.

The court dismisses this argument on the basis of:

...really?
Nov 05, 2014 Conflict Diamond link
I say either that by accepting your forfeit he lost OR by forfeiting, you pay the prize from your own pocket, and the pool remains in tact. Icy Hot on throbbing twisted nipples is optional.
