For 2., the ID could be a screengrab of the roller. And the text links to GW:ROLL on a suitable word.

Number 4 is inoffensively ok (what happened?).

Pic of 1 and text of 3? "Cower, vandals, this user can ROLL!" (a bit less John Wayne'y and more fanatasy god-like)

Alright, I've gotta say, the Katamari box seems to be filled with win. (and whatever else you rolled it through.) I think it's a safe bet I'll be using that one, no matter which one anyone else decides to go with. *runs off to Photoshop to attempt to make a Katamari ball composed entirely of vandalism* -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.> .cнаt^  12:25, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Looks like you forgot the KUSTAA vandal. KUSTAA DRINKS MOONSHINE is the only user I can find in the block log right now, but I thought it had hit us at least twice since I became active in April.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 15:22, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Eh, I never saw that one. I got most of the text in the vandal-ball from the deletion log, and Podax was more recent (plus, I've run into him before). --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jïörüjï Ðērākō.> .cнаt^  15:40, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

皇女さまとお呼びッ
Google translation says it is "I wanted with our princess". Also, random comment about cool userpage goes here. (T/C) 03:43, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

 * "Call Me Princess" is correct. 皇女 koujo means "imperial princess", さま -sama is a name-suffix showing respect (that person has much higher status than you do), とお呼び to o-yobi in this usage means "to call (someone) by a name".  As in, イシメールとお呼び. 　:D  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 14:50, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Bloody hell
Stop provoking him. In fact, it would probably be best if you didn't interact with him at all unless you have something constructive to say. Consider this your last warning before I have to make a block that I don't want to perform. (T/C) 05:35, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

roll
All of them can be used, but I know that personally I'd take the Rick; as much as I love rollerbeetles, it just isn't as lolworthy. The steamroller one doesn't make sense to me; I know what the Katamari one is about, vaguely, and Jio made a cool icon for it. But, it doesn't hold any special value for me.

The text for each box is fine, though readability is a bit of an issue with the rainbow-colors. Background colors are mostly OK also. Not sure what else you want me to comment on. I might work around with them a bit in my sandbox if you do not mind. (T/C) 07:52, 16 January 2009 (UTC)


 * [[Image:Rollback Damacy.jpg|45px]] is just so small that you can't see that it's a ball of vandals any more. it'd have to be animated to have the names spinning up readably on the ball, and though that'd be cool, I don't see anyone expedning that much effort (surprise me?). I think the Rick one has appeal, but the ID is too unsubtle. Maybe a b/w or vector head of Rick Astley in that? --◄mendel► 11:27, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Hey br- AHEM!
Put a little note on their talk page about interwebz comms; that last note you left on OBH's talk page kind of encouraged our new friend to start using "man", instead. If you ask me, I'm thinking they're a troll. King Neoterikos 00:15, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Man is fine with me tbph. But I tend to read peoples notes aloud to myself, and when I'm constantly saying bro I sound like a retard.  It annoys me.--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Roar.]]îğá†ħŕášħ  00:50, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I guess I'm just paranoid. King Neoterikos 01:07, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Troll, schmoll. His first edit was to OBloodyHell's talkpage, after which he reverted a bunch of OBH's edits, and got himself involved in a bunch of the same type of controversies as OBH. OBH also hasn't edited since 1 hour before NDF started.  NDF also seems to be using this manufactured "accent" to distinguish himself.  (No one speaks like that in real life.)  &lt;Brain voice> Pinky, are you thinking what I'm thinking?

You
You don't get enough appreciation. I know this is a bad time say this because it kinda reduces your impact on the wiki to the great MTG cards you make, but their greatness lies not only in their execution but in the fact that they're your artistic way to reflect upon the wiki. And by artistic, I also mean subversive. You have many ways in which you do this (and have done), employing what tools the wiki and the community hand you, and always in ways that make me first go "huh?" and then "ah!".

I'm proud and honored that we have a resident wiki artist. (Please make your own badge. ;-) -- ◄mendel► 11:19, 27 March 2009 (UTC) Footnote: We have more people who are good graphics artists, but nobody else whose subject is the wiki itself.

wut?
Care to explain removing soul barbs? Its recurrance is exactly why it should be there, and I am more than a bit confused. -- Shadowcrest  21:47, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * The note was synergy to fleeing foes. Soul Barbs activates whenever an enchant or hex is applied.  It could be said that they synergize because they would take extra damage when it reapplies, however that applies to all reocurring hexes, so there is not special reason why a A/N or a N/A should take them both and waste such a good skill such as Soul Barbs just to punish a runner, who merely needs to stop running for 1 second, to completely foil their strategy.  AKA:  It promotes bad gameplay, and the synergy isn't that strong.--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Roar.]]<font color="Black">îğá†ħŕášħ  01:14, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * So change the note to "this skill synergizes with Soul Barbs" and get on with it? If I counted correctly there are a grand total of 2 hexes that reapply themselves, so the argument "well it goes for all reapplying hexes!" isn't really valid. A similar note was on RI for (literally) 2 and a half years and there was a build on pvx that abused the concept. It's strong enough synergy tbh. --  Shadowcrest  01:23, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

In Defense of Defenders of PvX
How do we know when a post is effective? If its purpose is to defend an idea, a place, or a group, then we know it is good when Nice job  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 02:35, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * it allows nay-sayers with an open mind to reflect upon their ideas and consider changing them.
 * it enables aye-sayers to say, "see: what he said," and to help them argue more convincingly on the topic.
 * But Giga, PvX does not actually promote people to make better tanks. They ussually destroy their first try tanks and then kick em in the face. Only a very few are actually exepted. Arnout aka The Emperors Angel 06:59, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
