I'm deeply confused about this troll fight thing.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 29 November 2004 21:38 (nineteen years ago) link

There were allusions on this thread I'm thinking of to a pre-ILX board which was disrupted by a troll called "Ricardo", you spent a long dark night of the soul backing up files before he corrupted them, or something. As I say, it was all entirely made up by someone (I forget who) and seemed a nicely obscure question to ask.

Wasn't it Idiot Pete?

That rings a bell

― Matt (Matt), Monday, 29 November 2004 21:43 (nineteen years ago) link

So the long dark night of single-handed troll fighting never really happened?

*sighs*

It happened in dreams, and in dreams begin responsibilities.

At the time this was discussed I actually believed there was some weird precursor to ILE, which was destroyed by this Ricardo despite Ned's valiant attempts. It all gets clear (or does it?) if you read the thread :| linked onwards.

2) and 7) right, I'm not actually sure about 8)... Let's put this way: who was first male poster to post an undie pic of himself?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:20 (nineteen years ago) link

5. still wrong, 6. right.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:21 (nineteen years ago) link

Grrr. I know this in my brane somewhere...

― OleM (OleM), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:22 (nineteen years ago) link

I know the answer to #4 but I think I'm forbidden to answer dat one. By the way, the real answer to #9 is: nothing at all.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:23 (nineteen years ago) link

8. Donut?

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:23 (nineteen years ago) link

oh 1. is the infinite ken c / roxy / ken c / roxy loop!

Correct, except that there were a lot more people involved.

Remy, when did you first post that .gif?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:24 (nineteen years ago) link

5) still wrong.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:24 (nineteen years ago) link

January 2004?

― Remy (null) (x Jeremy), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:26 (nineteen years ago) link

Okay, then you win, unless Donut did it even earlier...

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:28 (nineteen years ago) link

wait, 5 is life after death isn't it!

― f--gg (gcannon), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:29 (nineteen years ago) link

Who were you thinking of, Tuomas? Donut Bitch was just a guess.

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:30 (nineteen years ago) link

wait, 5 is life after death isn't it!

Nope.

Who were you thinking of, Tuomas? Donut Bitch was just a guess.

I was thinking of Kenan's infamous camel toe pic and Burmakitty's even more infamous pose, but I'd forgot about that Remy gif.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:33 (nineteen years ago) link

No one's yet tried to answer 3), 4), and 10).

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:36 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm trying to remember three, but this was right after I started fighting with C-man and I think I refused to read his posts.

― Remy (null) (x Jeremy), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:38 (nineteen years ago) link

Hint: after he'd changed his name, he claimed he had no idea who "this Calum guy" was... (And I fell for it.)

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:41 (nineteen years ago) link

Should I answer #4 or leave it to someone else, Tuomas?

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Monday, 21 February 2005 22:59 (nineteen years ago) link

I think someone should remember it...

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Tuesday, 22 February 2005 09:24 (nineteen years ago) link

8) could also be me, if we're talking animated .gifs.

That was my answer!

5) is Jay-Z -- The Blueprint, isn't it? Didn't this get revealed on the "Is Geir Hongro Taking the Piss?" thread?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 22 February 2005 09:39 (nineteen years ago) link

Nope. (Notice that I'm using one particular Geir thread as my reference point, so if he changed his opinion later on without me noticing it, I'm sorry.)

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Tuesday, 22 February 2005 09:44 (nineteen years ago) link

Everyone's already given up?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Tuesday, 22 February 2005 17:03 (nineteen years ago) link

No.

#3 - Chantel

No, this was much earlier.

Ah, okay, Geir apparently changed his mind. In 2003 his favourite rap LP was Doggystyle.

3, 4, and 10 still unanswered though.
