Wikipedia Genocide
category: general [glöplog]
I hate to break it to you, but anything that allows everybody to make additions but has a smaller group of moderators is always going to end up like that. Complaining when your Wikipedia submission is rejected is like complaining your bash.org quote is rejected.
I respectfully disagree with your poorly made analogy. ;-)
If your complaint is that Radman is a narcissistic media whore, then you've already lost in posting to this pouet thread, or voting to delete him. That simply propogates it further, and would play in his hand.
If your issue is respect or creditability, then you are simply trying to improve your own on the backs of others. You try to show yourself off by pushing others down. That only solidifies the strength and resolve of the fledgling North America scene. Wake up, it's there, it's real, it's getting stronger, and it's here to stay. All you do is strengthen it by generating conflict. This kind of thing promotes Radman into a martyr rather than just a media whore.
If you feel like you can paint the brush with generalizations, to suggest that Canada is America simply because they are in North America; then obviously your are German if you are in Europe.
This deletion is fascist book burning reaching the digital age. Would you like your pouet threads deleted simply because people didn't agree with your attitudes?
Ask yourself why you want to delete this stuff. Is it to prevent his glory or to protect yours?
All hail the Martyr Radman. King of the North American Demo scene.
P.S. This is only my opinion, not necessarily that of my demo coding group.

Yes, of course.
The word 'German' appears in Europe.
Stupid American.

shouldn't we be beating up radman before he can officially be a martyr? torture him for a while perhaps? i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to arrange a mob of angry europeans who'd like to take care of the job..
oh btw, any other members of the "fledgling north america scene" (wtf is that? is it like the demoscene?) are welcome too!

would be nice if it could live up to all the annoying hype it's been shouting atleast.
*portuguese flag stating that im not european here*
and for the record, niels never had manners in presenting his pov, you surely werent expecting him to start having them on america's account, were you? :)

pardon me, america and pan-america. sorry!
and remember kids: creating fake-accounts just to supply your opinion is a NO-NO!!
Polaris: I don't think anyone here intends to complain about all this fuss just to hold the American (<-continent) scene back. No offence, but... why would anybody be afraid? :)
I mean, OK, so you finally had a demoparty (woo!) and you even had demos presented (woo!) and some of it were quite decent. But then again, they're not much of a threat to an Assembly/Breakpoint level. (That is, excluding the Order of K demo which still lacks a final!! *looks at basehead* :))
This isn't meant as a diminutive offence or anything but seriously, stop taking every complaint and critic to the chin.
I think ps said the imporant word of "hype" here. You won't get more respect from most of the people if the most common thing you do is try to convince everyone in the BBS that you're not Canamerican. Demos prove you better.
Look at the Lithuanian scene - they never really "made themselves known" by posting in public forums or anything, they just had Nesnausk! who made cool demos and ever since everyone knows them. But we could cite Italy and Spinning Kids or Skim here, or Australia with Disaster Area.
But as long as the most popular American (<- continent) demogroup's fame mostly resides of going on full blast against people who call them American (<- whatever), it will fade away the demos you make - even if the Pilgrimage Invitation was really cool.
On the other hand "Don't Call Me American" sounds nice as a demo title, doesn't it? :D
Und wir sind alle Deutschländer.

So, now all of the sudden this is about manners PS? I personally think that some dickhead adding him-fucking-self to an online encyclopedia because he's a scener who did some stuff that practically any mortal will forget sooner or later *is just over the top*.
I for one welcome the complaints of Pouet'ers, especially when it's constructive criticism. Whoa, imagine that!
But the generalizations, such as labeling Americans and calling Canadians is disrespectful and makes you look ignorant. Then again, I know that you know this, and that you know better -- it's clearly intentional and carried on in hopes that it "irks" someone.
Everyone knows that North America has had demo parties since the mid 1990s, has created great demos and contributed its fair share to the demo scene. This is nothing new. Just another razz that in fact perpetuates your own image of ignorance, synthetic or not.
Keep up the good work.

Oh, I forgot the :-)
In the and this is not about Americans nor Canadians nor American achievements on some points that nobody will deny. So don't try to push it that way just because some kids called you 'a silly American' or whatever.
radman: is it nice to be a king without kingdom?
ah.. what's a morning without coffee and a good thread.. keep it up! let these EU bastards the fuck know that america has a fucking ace scene!
*sits back and sips coffee*

:D
hahaha ^___^
ppl always said flamewars between groups push the envelope on demo quality. but all i seen good from the american "pilgrimage era" is baseheads efforts, and he aint even in the war.. O_o
ok, fair enough, nd invite to pilgrimage was decent too, too bad it got so hyped that most of everyone on europe nearly detests it now.
*"its not the canucks fault that they live north of america" banner here*

BZZZ, wrong:
Pilgrimage 2004 (invitation):
Thumb up: 59
Piggy face: 22
Thumb dn: 3
We won't talk about it's "popularity" because those figures are skewed due to the slashdotting. I will take the heat for the hype, but this doesn't change one fact.... the crowd seems to love this.

Don't bother me for a while, I'm busy devising my next popular Pouet.net message thread.
most of everyone nearly detested kasparov and check its votes. dont confuse pouet thumbs with actual love for the production.
I heard maddox coded the invitation to pilgrimage?
Wikipedia is unknown for me, i never see this website, never heard about it, so it's nothing.
