Post of the week nominations 2/13 - 2/19

I really enjoy this segment of another forum I frequent and thought, why not bring it here. Simply put, if you see a hilarious or otherwise awesome post quote it in this thread to nominate it for Post of the week. At the end of this week I'll start a new thread and post the top 10, that thread with be updated each week with a new top 10 at at the end of the year I'll post the top 10 of the year. Nominate on.

In the end I will have final say on rather or not something goes in, but up/down votes can easily override my opinion so thats how the voting process will work. If you like a nomination upvote it, if you don't downvote it.

Edit: Each forum member may only be nominated 3 4 times a week. You can thank Olijar for that limitation.

Edit 2: As much as I've enjoyed that back and forth with Olijar in this thread, I have to ask that you only post NOMINATIONS in here. If you would like a discussion thread I'll start one it's right here, but I just realized that I don't know rather to count the pluses on olijars post themselves or just on the nominations. I'm not a mod, so I can't see if it was the same person and some votes may be counted twice or not at all.

If I were going to Nats and TN was not picked due to the showers, I wouldn't shower for 4 days prior as some sort of "strike" or "protest."  (and I'd go the next 4 days without showering as well 8)

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for a Nationals Title, I can tell you I don't have one. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let me destroy timezones forever, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will troll you.

This post is actually from quite awhile ago, and I had to creep on Olijar to find it, but if post of the week had been around back then this would already be the front runner for POTY (post of the year) to me. So I'm including it in this first week.

Quote from: Alex_Olijar
But, now to fit in with the boards, here's a nice paragraph about a subject I know nothing about. This is a metaphor about why Jesus will love you if you listen to me. Here's a funny picture supporting my point. Also, you should consider this alternative, if you don't mind be not as holy as I am.

In an open discussion topic, the context actually doesn't make a difference in this case so I edited the context parts out to keep those in OD

It's really quite a capstone post. I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to top it.

It's all apart of my evil plan to take over control of CGD. Once I am notiminated for all ten post of the years, it will be impossible to stop my inevitable rise from power. As I rise, I will promise my underlings ponies and other good things because I have no intention of keeping my promises anyway, seeing as I am a politician. I will then storm the gates of Cactus Game Design and remove the benevolent dictator of Redemption Rob Anderson. Once I am in control, I will control Redemption as I see fit, and print copious amounts of cards that I want to use in my decks, and only allow myself to use them. Also, Nationals will be taking place in my house. The good news is that I do have showers.

Although not a bad post, this isn't what I meant. Posts for nomination should take place in normal conversation, not posted for the sheer intent of trying to get nominated.

Oh, I don't want to get nominated.  I was just making an observation about your thread idea...on a post.  ;)

Anything by Alex is worthy of nominations. Especially this post:

PM sent.




I also nominate every post in the Pokemon thread.

Not sure, who that Professoralstad character is, but I'd say he's wrong, albeit probably a really smart and handsome fella. Apparently I never did the research, and I don't think I ever came up with a good reason why a previously activated artifact that is set-aside could not remain active, so it seems like it should be. Especially because I don't wanna disagree with Nobody.
