man ngirl has been putting quips in her sig since the dawn of time.

She said "don't even get why you're contemplating it", "not worth diddly" and "you do get that right?"

None of those were trolling. Mildly abrasive, maybe? Trolling, naaah.

Ncr chill out. No one is trolling you, we're just trying to give you evidence that points to the contrary of what you're arguing. Ngirl was a little abrasive about it, but not trying purposely to wind you up or anything.


Speak for yourself, I've been very subtly trolling him all contest.

Master Trolling. Especially the last one. Unless you somehow forget that moderators are experts at knowing how to provoke people within the confines on the TOS.

Like hell I subtly troll everyone, I troll them outright and I'm rude upfront when I want to be mean.
If you're getting on my nerves, you know it pretty damn quickly because I always make a huge fuss over little stuff like that. Not hiding little messages under the sig.

ngirl, I already acknowledged that RBY is an exception about 15-20 posts up. And I talked about TP-MM only, I never mentioned OoT at all. In fact, I also said WW is the weakest of the bracket and results have shown it.

So the Zelda games are all different except for the two you mentioned. Do you think that Chrono Cross > Dragon Age?

Last year GSC got 46.6% on MGS.

RSE got 51% on GTAIV.

Do you think GTAIV gets 45% on MGS?

See, I can do crappy subliminal mesages posing as a sig too. Your last message was as useless as it can go.

I have what is commonly known as a dynamic sig. It's never the same, nothing personal towards you or anyone else. Furthermore, no part of my post was trolling, not even the sig. You can take my word on that, I'm something of an authority on it. But it was cute how you replicated a dynamic sig.

She only started because you wound yourself up. There's a couple things you can do when you get into any sort of confrontation with ngirl. You can either ignore her because it's tough to get the upperhand.

Or you can do this:

EvilNcr | Posted 12/13/2010 1:25:30 AM | message detail
You know ngirl, my point was that if you're gonna do that, do that upfront, not with sneaky under-the-sig comments. I don't give a crap how many years you've been using a dynamic sig, if you're gonna use your gimmick to subtly troll, it's fair game that someone fires back.

Next time, just outright call me a loon, a delusional hater or however the f*** you want to say I'm not in my right mind to predict the match this way it instead of using your sig to annoy me.

"You do get that right?" is not trolling, not subtly or otherwise. Had it been in the body of the text, it still wouldn't have been trolling. It's not subtle, not even a little bit. The clue is that before I responded, at least three other people told you that I changed my sig. I've never tried to hide it. If you want examples of how to do it subtly, you should check out some DA posts.

Quite a good performance from MGS3 so far. Maybe we are severely underestimating D2, MVC2, SOTC, AC, etc. Those games are probably stronger than what people are willing to give credit for.

Not to be mean, but it's hard to take someone's arguments seriously with a bracket like that. I'd still respect that person's arguments if he wasn't being so confrontational, though...

Meh...I think MGS as a whole has clearly lost a step. Rather than try and claim that every game in this division is being underrated, it's easier to say the MGS series is not the same beast that it was before.

We'll know for sure in the quarterfinals though.

And as for that MM thing, Pokemon seems to have every single x-factor going for it in this match. Still, the only thing that leaves me hesitant is its performance on CC. For the sake of my bracket, I hope CC really is that damn weak...

It's pretty much dead on where I expected it. Maybe to the upper range slightly, but it would have needed to hit 60%+ for me to say it looked good going into the next round.

It still looks like it could go either way to me.

Ours ran through two seasons and was ended by some dodgy officiating against Manchester United.

Your's was ended in a 3-0 drubbing at the hands of Sunderland.

Newcastle do get SFFed a lot. Everyone likes them, but they're not everyone's favourites.

No-one is stupid enough to like Scumderland, except people from Sunderland, so they're much more independant.

And recent results suggest Newcastle SFF Scum hard.
