Find the Anime Challenge

[Simia Saturnalia]

Yeah, i know, these comparisons between Full Metal Alchemist and warforged are ridiculous. If you zoom in to an image, you will see Alphonse's jaw is attached by square rivets, whereas the rivets of a warforged are clearly round. Also, Alphonse has a feather/plume/ribbon thing coming out of his head-- and I don't see ANY warforged artwork where they put on any such decoration.

As for me, I am tempted to start a thread called "Don't find the anime challenge". If people win, I will tattoo the pictures onto my forehead. All they have to do is get me to admit that any three images they post are anime. Of course, since I am the one who gets to decide if it is anime or not, it is unlikely that I will be needing to visit the tatoo parlor anytime soon...

I see what you did there.

Two out of three ain't bad.

Much better than the "three out of three" we have now, eh?

(I'm talking both sides here.)

(I am still waiting for Hussar's reply to my proposition, which is the only important reply. Perhaps he's waiting for more Tokyopop votes before he commits one way or the other? )

I might note that that Tokyopop poll is open, and of the five "not anime influenced" votes, one might have joined particularly to vote "no", but the other four are members of that board (a 10K post mod, a 36-post newbie (from August, so not from ENWorld), a just-sub-1K poster, and a 12K poster). I'd say the impartial judges have weighed in already.

I'd say the Tokyo-Pop poll is decidely one-sided against. As far as this question:

(What board is the "EN World" of anime?)

Biggest Anime boards I've noticed would be ANN.

On the first three, I would be willing to agree. I wonder why Hussar hasn't agreed to "officially" allow the same method of judgement for all of the pictures?

Since you organized it? I mean, you've been voicing your opinions on pokemon influences of D&D quite strongly for some time now, so I think you'd view him losing this as some kind of victory.

That combined with your sig bet means you have vested interest in this thing - so, just maybe he's suspicious of any poll you organized for 'victory'. Who knows how much you're pals with tokyopop forums?

I find it very, very funny that someone who has so vehemently defended a DM's right to run the game that he wants to run would bitch and whine so constantly about someone's game.

In other words, I've already shown that I'm more than willing to be convinced by solid arguments. Either put up or shut up. It's my ball, my game, and I'll be the judge thankyouverymuch. Don't like it? Fine, don't play. No skin off my nose. But, if you think that your arguments are simply too weak to stand any scrutiny, then that's your problem, not mine.

As I've said, I'm willing to be swayed here. I've proven that I have a pretty open mind and am willing to be convinced. We've already got one solid contender and everything that I've disqualified I've put forth pretty solid arguments as to why and no one has questioned that.

So, RC, since you're the only one right now whining about how the game is rigged, since you have yet to weigh in with examples, how would you like to either piss or get off the pot?

Stop thread crapping please.

So the score stands at 1 out of a necessary 3 right now? (It was the Faerun Tieflings, right?)

Yup.
