Cheers[edit]

Thanks for your assistance, by the way. Appreciated. Have a delightful, non-Nightwish (although perhaps slightly Nightwish-esque) song. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 15:01, 1 July 2008 (EDT)

That was very Nightwishy. Judging by your comment, I thought for a second it would be Evanescence.
Anyway, you have forced me to retaliate: Have at ye! <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 16:09, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
Well, that was certainly... unsual. I'm not even entirely sure how to categorize that, so I guess I'll call it a video installation and leave it at that.
And now for something completely different! This is not Nightwishy-washy at all, promise. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 16:25, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
Definitely not Nightwishy, but I'm not sure it's an improvement, either :P Have a sort-of-jellyfish-themed song. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 16:44, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
What? You don't like Safety Dance? But it has midgets and Morris dancing and everything in it? Anyway, considering your apparent taste for the somewhat serialistic... --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 17:12, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
Indeed, it is very slow. I've only just finished watching your Philip Glass thingy.
Did you mean "surrealistic" by any any chance?
Anyway, I sink your battleship :P <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 17:42, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
No, "serialistic" as in continually repeating a certain theme or passage. Also, I see your battleship (if you have one) and raise you an actual battleship. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 18:00, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
"Continually repeating a certain theme or passage"? Kevin Shields must be rolling in his... bedsit.
Also... Pet Shop Boys? The Battleship Potemkin? I'm not sure you're taking this seriously, Anders. Anyway, I haven't seen all of this one yet, because of The Slow, but it looks great so far. Surrender, you fool! <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 18:34, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
The message in that one seemed more than a little COMMUNIST! I suggest you stop trying to hide your true loyalties beneath a thin veneer of avantgardist respectability and instead embrace them overtly. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 18:44, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
Avantgardist, is it?
I expect I'll lose some points for that :) Anyway, I vote we stop now and have an impartial third party decide who's won (me). <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 20:08, 1 July 2008 (EDT)
I vote we don't stop. I haven't even had time to pull out the big guns yet.
However, since I'm at work right now, at a workplace that mysteriously doesn't appreciate the many joys of YouTube, I counter-propose that we postpone the competition for a few hours.
I must also respectfully challenge your suggested arbiter. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 04:18, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
I started with the "big guns", so I hereby stick my tongue out at you. We can keep going later if you really want, but I think it's a forgone conclusion.
And what arbiter would you suggest? <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 04:27, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
I'd suggest me, because I like you both equally. Therefore I am a fair and neutral party. Star of David.png Radioactive afikomen Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments. 04:32, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
You can only be the judge if you like me more. That was the premise of the discussion. See liberal stupidity. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 04:37, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
You call a video artist whom no one has ever heard of a "big gun"? Absurd. RA will be fine as an arbiter. Although maybe we need an arbiter to appoint an arbiter? --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 04:41, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
I meant more in terms of songs than videos. I think this person would make a good judge for who gets to be the arbiter. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 04:55, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Video, music, same thing. I'd never heard of them. We could also hold a new song war to determine the arbiter of the arbiter of our song war. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 04:59, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
If I may be permitted to get needlessly pedantic for a moment, I note that you are assuming:
1) Your own experience is a flawless indicator of popularity.
2) Popularity is not irrelevant to art.
So :P
Anyway, I think RA has "chosen himself", which seems to neatly cut through any fiddly bureaucracy we might have invented, even if it is fairly unfair. I vote for RA as supreme arbiter. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 05:06, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
I fail to see any problem at all with those assumptions.
But I agree with your proposal. Let us consider RA elected arbiter by acclamation. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 05:38, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Gladly do I accept. Star of David.png Radioactive afikomen Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments. 05:43, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
AK: The second one is outright false, as you would accept if it weren't for Liberal Denial. How many more rounds shall we have? How shall we judge the entries? <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 05:47, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
I think we should leave that up to the arbiter. That's what arbiters are for. But I expect, then, that you at least agree that my first assumption is true? --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 05:50, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
No, it's a generalisation. And what if he makes the wrong decision? We need rules, dammit! <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 05:52, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Ok, I can see your point. I propose the establishment of a proper Rules Commission to work out a set of rules. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 05:54, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

[undent]Please devote a new page to your contest. All RW is watching you. (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 05:56, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

Another generalisation :) Anyway, I think this sort of thing is more suited to talk pages. The limelight would kill it. Kill it, I say. Perhaps we should have two arbiters, though? If Ed is interested. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 06:04, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Absolutely not. I have already filled my Youtube quota for the week. (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 06:27, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
"YouTube quota"? What an exotic concept. You can be chairman of the Rules Commisson, then. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 06:29, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
I think we should give that post to a mongol chieftan. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 06:32, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
A mongol chieftain probably knows better than me anyway what this contest is about. (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 06:33, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Primus, I don't think we have any Mongol chieftains immediately available. Secundus, I fail to see what actual knowledge about the contest has to do with being on the rules commission. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 06:39, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Tertius, all I wanted was free tickets to the front row and some popcorn kindly offered by the contestants. (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 06:44, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
Ok, I guess we can let you off the hook, then. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 14:36, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

Song war, round 2[edit]

We continue this competition just long enough for my honoured opponent to concede his defeat. This should be a pure formality, really. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 14:36, 2 July 2008 (EDT)

It took me ages to find my next one -- mostly because for a while I tried to "out-complicate" you, which did not work at all. Instead, I am sticking with my tried-and-tested policy of choosing a song and then finding an OK video for it. Huzzah! <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 21:35, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
BO-ring! No development, nothing happens. Also, you seem to be deluding yourself into thinking that the Bach can be competed with. In any case, here's Suzanne!. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 04:03, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
If you want to field Bach as some kind of "uncompetable-with" champion, you might try selecting something good, like Air.
Suzanne Vega? Suzanne Vega? That's practically a Rickroll. You realise she doesn't age, don't you? She isn't human! Kill it! But since you brought us to the eighties, I suppose I must follow suit. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 04:32, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
I owned two Vegas, both silver wagons... ħumanUser talk:Human 04:52, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. The eighties... and just a little bit further back. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 07:33, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Not bashing or anything, but... don't you Danes have some sort of inferiority complex, given the success of Swedish, and to a minor extent Norwegian, Finnish and even Icelandic, singers and bands? (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 07:42, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
I mean, the only musician from Denmark I "know" is... Carl Nielsen. (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 07:43, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Sure we do! We compensate by only listening to our own crappy artists and ignoring all those furriners.
But surely you must have heard of Aqua? We've had some rather successful jazz musicians, too, if you're into that. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 07:46, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Hmm you are right, but I wouldn't boast with Barbie Girl. Sorry for jazz, you are way ahead other Nordic Countries in that, both in artists and in venues/recordings (a Copenaghen Chet Baker session on my night table at the moment). (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 07:52, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
And not to forget the late opera soprano Inga Nielsen. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 08:27, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
ABBA...
I get the feeling you're not really taking this seriously, Amaranth. Anyway, I found something much nicer. The video doesn't really match it and the vocals have far too much reverb, but you choose ABBA for Christ's sake, so :P <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 08:56, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Yes. I like ABBA. :-(
Well, here's a classic.
I must admit, though, that I'm a little unclear on the exact criteria for this competition. Are we simply competing on who can find the most awesomest (!) songs to throw after the other, or something a little more involved? --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 09:17, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Is it just me, or was that song about chess? :)
The rules are only that we playing without explicitly defining the rules, so do feel free to carry on as you are now. I'm taking us back to the nineties again -- keep your arms and legs on inside until the vehicle has come to a complete stop and please ignore the haircuts.
Disclaimer: Not britpop in any way, shape or form, despite the tags. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 10:19, 3 July 2008 (EDT)

I'm running away escaping leaving my front row place but taking your popcorn with me. Have you heard from the Judge lately? I fear he ran away escaped "had an urgent meeting", after seeing what he should have to endure. (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 10:58, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
You mean Rational Afikomen? He's probably asleep. And please don't run away escape leave your front row seat just yet, Ed -- I peeked at Anders' hand while he was gone, and his next choice is a Jewish hymn sung backwards. it's going to be legendary. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 11:05, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
I trust you Chaos!. I'll stay just for the Jewish hymn sung backwards. Does it have a satanistic message like the Beatles song sung backwards? (too embarassed to sign, (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 11:15, 3 July 2008 (EDT) )
No, it merely glorifies the one true Dog. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 11:40, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
I have no idea what my honoured opponent is talking about, but I don't play hymns backwards, Jewish or otherwise. That's just so 70's, you know?
Now here's some good stuff. You'd have to be both blind and deaf to not like this. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 11:52, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
No, I managed it without those two advantages.
I can't help thinking this song would be much better without the vocals. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 13:15, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
I'll bet you can't! You seem to be pretty anti-vocals generally, don't you?
Guess you'll just love this one, then. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 14:21, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
If I had my way, you two-legs would never speak.
That song should really be accompanied by a company of homeless orphans dancing while a chained bear flogs them. Ans an accordion. Also, I will retaliate when I've had some sleep, if it's all the same with you. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 16:21, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Of course. I am nothing if not magnanimous in my impending victory. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 16:43, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
Please, AKjeldsen, would you be so kind to leave Finnish music alone, instead of showing the worst of it? (Editor at) CP:no intelligence allowed 16:49, 3 July 2008 (EDT)
The worst? Not at all. Ieva's Polka is a great piece of a cappella music. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 17:04, 3 July 2008 (EDT)

Round Three -- TREACHERY![edit]

Well, Sir - as it has now been three days since my last entry with no further opposition, I believe I can claim victory in this competition under the ancient laws of the Internet as laid down by the Elder Ones. Thank you for playing. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 19:10, 6 July 2008 (EDT)
Never, sir! We shall resume our melee immediately!
Take that, foul knave!
Postscript: I'd rather not live in a world where I can only mention Ulrich Schnauss once. The video's excellent anyway, so I defy you to complain :P <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 04:07, 7 July 2008 (EDT)
The video was indeed excellent, but unfortunately that's not what we're competing about here. I must admit that I find it hard to see the appeal in these massive electronic tapestries of music that hardly changes at all. That being said, I assume we both live in reasonably free countries, so you are of course free to mention this "Ulrich Schnauss" as much as you like.
And now, time for some classic piano with David Tudor! --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 10:26, 7 July 2008 (EDT)
Why should music change? I don't understand your objection.
Anyway, I destroy your champion by exposing it to its exact antithesis. Basic alchemy. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 13:12, 9 July 2008 (EDT)
I interject with [1] and [2]. Pinto's5150 Talk 14:09, 9 July 2008 (EDT)
Both of which are silly :P I don't think we can make it a three-way songwar, either -- how will it be judged?? <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 14:26, 9 July 2008 (EDT)
Is it being judged now?
This next song may not be entirely in season. I intend to handle that issue by ignoring it entirely. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 14:31, 9 July 2008 (EDT)

Littlefish[edit]

What have I done wrong, I noticed she has recently expanded the Kosher article a lot, she earlier expanded the Orthodox Judaism article, and she never edits early on the saturday or late on friday (keeping the shabbat) (she claims to be a seventh day adventist but she can't fool me, I am Jewish and therefore have Jewdar) --Jellyfish 15:57, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

:mild facepalm:
Do you also have libertariandar? That one might be interesting. Anyway, I am near-certain that Deborah is not Jewish, despite her recent interest in the subject. You'd have to ignore logic to disagree! :) <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 16:06, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

I admit some of the things I said were joking like that there is a Jewish conspiracy at Conservapedia. Look at the evidence
1:She never edits on the Sabbath
2:She has a Jewish name
3:She recently did a major expansion of Kosher
4:She in the past did a big expansion of Orthodox Judaism
5:She recently copied the articles for Hillel and Shammai from Jewish Encyclopedia
6:Most people who edit articles about Judaism are Jews
7:My Jewdar says she is Jewish
8:Fox's Jewdar says she is Jewish

--Jellyfish 16:35, 8 July 2008 (EDT)

I fixed your line breaks. You're welcome.
If you must discuss this conspiracy, you should either enable your email or invent some kind of elaborate carrier-pigeon method. We don't know how dangerous Deborah might be if provoked!

Well, yes. I can see how Nasty and Pointy might have serious effect on a Jelly. Though I remain dubious about the "warm comfy" part of socks.

Young! No particular objections but WFG's only been here a few days & don't think AKJ'll thank you, he had to be forced into sysopship. SusanG  ContribsTalk 03:09, 24 July 2008 (EDT)
Godot's spawned a huge amount of text in the last few days, regardless of how long she's been here. I'm sure AK won't really mind...
Oh great, now you've introduced Doubt into my mind... Whyever did he not want to be a sysop?

Really the only new things you can do are Rename and User Rights Management. I thought it would be appropriate just because most of the cabal (everyone but you, really) are bureaucrats, in keeping with their status in the community. You could probably have some fun by demoting Human a little -- but he's a bit grumpy at the moment, so it might be wise not to. <blink></blink> <blink></blink> 05:25, 24 July 2008 (EDT)

I hope you're not trying to demonstrate your unsuitability. You've gone all "Look, I broke the plates! I probably shouldn't do the washing up from now on..."

Your proposed system[edit]

I applied exactly such a system to your blog a long time ago. You lose 5 points for every hour that you don't update. I should advise you that you're currently at -10015.5 point. (Don't ask where the half point came from.) --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 14:46, 25 July 2008 (EDT)

Really? To me they look like typical CP-style smears. Any "facts" in the form of "many liberals [insert action here]" are meaningless, as information. TMT's version expresses the truth perfectly, and without any juvenile editorializing. ~ Gloom(is never asleep) 17:45, 26 July 2008 (EDT)

Why do you seem so opposed to the idea that CMF is Jinx? --US-O11 insignia.svg Gen. S.T. Shrink Is this lulz inducing? 18:29, 26 July 2008 (EDT)

I'm not opposed to the possibility, Shrink :) I just think it's a bit silly to assume these suspicions are correct -- especially in WIGO, our "public face". Don't you agree? ~ Gloom(is never asleep) 18:32, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
Fair enough. And if you were Jinx I would be forced to track you down. He is just really getting to the point of pissing me off. --US-O11 insignia.svg Gen. S.T. Shrink Is this lulz inducing? 18:35, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
Except that even if CMF isn't Jinx, he has defended CMF's position, which is what Fox is alleging really. However I can't complain that you are taking care of any potential libel, regardless of how small. Sorry if I put something I should not have.--Damo2353 18:41, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
No, it's alright really, Damo. I really hate having to revert stuff from WIGO :) The "defending CWF" thing is interesting. Maybe you could put the link back in with that context? ~ Gloom(is never asleep) 18:45, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
Oh yes, CMF and Jinx have the exact same mindset, and therefore I suspect he is. He's too interested. I've done searches on him all over the net, PRAYING that he is very very deep cover liberal. I am losing faith every second. --US-O11 insignia.svg Gen. S.T. Shrink Is this lulz inducing? 18:46, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
I had that idea a while back, Shrink. But RA set me straight, unfortunately. ~ Gloom(is never asleep) 18:52, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
I agree with you, STS. God Almighty, I agree with you... ~ Gloom(is never asleep) 18:38, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
Why Schlindlers? I think fox is right. --US-O11 insignia.svg Gen. S.T. Shrink Is this lulz inducing? 18:57, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
I think Fox is getting a bit carried away, y'know. ~ Gloom(is never asleep) 19:03, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
He does have a tendency to do that. --AKjeldsenCum dissensie 19:05, 26 July 2008 (EDT)
