Hopefully that works. It's a link from that site that let you host files for 7 days. The music isn't that great, but I literally made that about 10 minutes ago when I saw there weren't any other entries.

Does this mean I win by default? ;D

*kicks people who continue to say "until 7 days pass" for seemingly random reasons...

I mean, "1 week" is far more practical.

okay - this may sound a little silly, but shouldn't someone who knows who MVB is, post it?

I mean - that is the point of the thread. If everyone didn't post when they knew who it was, then NO-ONE would ever get solved...

Quote"I meant that everyone who's been mentioned so far has created a kick-ass game so they aren't morons."

According to this logic, yes!

No [my opinion]. You're trying do find a difference between popular and kick-ass. A game isn't popular if people don't like it (I personally hate his games, but popular opinion would suggest larger society thinks differently). A game that people like, could, under normal circumstances, be called kick-ass (NOT meaning that it is the best game ever made in all time). So he HAS made a good game, and most definitely cannot fit under this definition:

moron: A stupid person; a dolt.  [dictionary.com]

or this:

moron: A city of eastern Argentina, an industrial suburb of Buenos Aires. Population: 641,541.

That's a statement that would be pretty hard to solidly defend, I'd think...

Okay - I get what you mean. I didn't clarify my statement. I meant that everyone who's been mentioned so far has created a kick-ass game (obviously there are those who disagree, but if the game truly sucked, it wouldn't be popular), so they aren't morons. They're just unwise, maybe ignorant. But certainly not retarded or idiots.

I don't think anyone who is famous enough for us to know their name can be classified as a "moron".

Stuck up, or arrogant, maybe. But not morons.

The website is good.

These posts are bad.

Another thing that jumped into my head: I hate ads that promote the TV channel you're already watching!

There's this program on (Australian) TV called "sunrise" (like "Good Morning America/Australia/Iraq/Other_country") and they put out this ad saying:

"Well, since we've become the most popular morning program in Australia, why don't you watch the evening news on the same channel? The hosts are 'our kind of people', and they really know what they're talking about. So make the right choice - watch channel seven news. And we'll see YOU bright and early tomorrow morning *cheesy smile*"

grrrr.

For example, Queenslanders are supposed to have an inclination on the last sylable of their sentences, or say 'ay' at the end (similar to Canada's 'eh').

I've never heard that one before! I can't think of anyone I know, or ever met that finished off with 'ay' on a regular basis, apart from those wannabe thugs that wear two-tonne necklaces.

At the risk of sounding almost sort of racist against accents, I must say the american one really irritates me. I (seriously) get a headache from listening to George Bush, and Bill Clinton did much the same. When I watched the 9/11 reports on TV, the thing that stuck out most to me was how stupid those people sounded. I know it's all about what you get used to etc, but I didn't think an accent would grate that much with me...

Well... I'm australian, so I suppose I'm not really eligible to answer the question, but i LOVE the new zealand accent. It's not actually as bad as a lot of people make out. It's not so much "fush and chups" as it is "fsh 'nd chps". But not that retarded...

I love the aussie accent more, though. It just rolls of the tongue!

Ads for safe sex piss me off.

Sure, it's an important topic, but they present it in such a blase manner, it's like "LET'S ALL HAVE SEX COZ IT'S GREAT! (we will insert a brief, five second reminder that you might wanna use a condom, too) I LOVE SEX, AND BOY, AM I RANDY TONIGHT, HONEY!"

And Australia as some crappy doctor doing an ad about how the Australian Health Scheme is improving (by that, he means getting screwed up by turning into the american system) and he can't talk properly! He has the most annoying lisp in the world, and he calls the "Pharmaceutical Benefit Scheme" the "Faaarmeshootical Benfit Skeeem".

Damn doctors with their big paychecks and minimal vocabularies...

That would be a great game. And we'd each get an extra $700 dollars for every month we play it, of course.

Damn you and your get-rich-quick schemes. :D
