There comes a time in every man's life when it becomes necessary for him to face something much bigger than himself. This time has come for Teamliquid's Anime Discussion Thread.
There is a monster that has been monopolizing much of the General Forum for the past few years. Though born before this beast, TLADT has lived in fear within its shadows for what feels like almost half a decade.
But no more. The blood of a hundred otaku boils with moe. Before we get into the juicy stuff, however, allow us to introduce ourselves.
About TLADT
We are the strong, though physically weak. We have a theme song, because we are geeks.
Our interests lie mainly in the world of 2D. Though that may change vainly, if you have double D's.
Some call us weeaboo, Some call us gross. We don't like to argue, 'cause we're actually both.
Our overlord is Kaal, Our token black guy, Elem. Shauni likes young gals. I like older women.
Panda is a hikki, C. Sheep's an elitist. Emnjay signs off IRC, Whenever he beats it.
Caller is a troll, And wala, a scumbag. Choco fell down a hole. blahz0r's moobs sag.
rabid is a NEET, Kaze's really short. nagi hates defeat. None of us play sports.
Southlight knows his Jap, HCO is learning. Sent likes giant metal crap, ecael has meager earnings.
ap0c's probably hairy, tonight is really white. gecko doesn't play carry, I molest Wreak at night.
kupon speaks four dialects, Milkis loves his tea. Why is znf so perfect? gao is spazer's mini-me.
harem disappeared, kjh looks like Bogus. I think I should stop here, Because I'm losing focus.
TLADT progamer house - our doors are always open. No, seriously, close the fucking doors.
The Challenge:
We, TLADT, hereby challenge the Korean Music Discussion thread to a battle of honor, pride, and other fun stuff. We seek this match to prove to the entire TL community that the best Asian-culture-obsessed nerds are not those within the KMD community, but us!
Here is what we had in mind:
BO3 Different Games
The three games will be Brood War, DotA2, and League of Legends. Unfortunately, our community is very elitist, so we have no one who plays StarCraft 2 as they prefer BW. However, because we are so superior, we decided we'll replace SC2 with LoL as a little gift to you idol lovin' kiddies. As much as we would have loved to challenge you at SC2 instead of LoL, SC2 costs money, and money is not something we otaku have an abundance of as we're too busy buying posters, figures, and lewd pillows.
Brood War will be a bo5 (each team must send five different players). DotA2 and LoL will be bo3s, with DotA2 being played on U.S. East (or U.S. West if you so prefer) and LoL being played on the NA servers.
As for the spoils... We propose that the losers should have to close their current thread and make a new one, and the opening post of the new thread will be whatever the winner wants it to be (as long as mods approve of the content). Also, all participating players must put in their signatures whatever the winner desires as well.
WE ARE WILLING TO NEGOTIATE ANY TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
Just have your representative contact me beforehand to work things out.
Here is our (tentative) roster (not our actual line-up of course):
Seeing as how your community is not as amazing and cohesive as ours, I just wanted to make it clear that this is a challenge to the entire Korean Music lovin' community, including former avid KMD posters and the nanashin sub-community. Our only prerequisites are that all of your players must either have at least 20 posts within the KMD thread (from its inception and up until the time of this post) or have been an active member of your IRC channel.
We will wait three days, approximately 72 hours, for your response.
Of course, we understand if you prefer not to embarrass yourselves. In any case, your tyranny over the General Forum will end soon regardless.
[03:42:13] <@Souma> I'm always done [03:42:15] <@Souma> with this KMD post. [03:42:18] <@Souma> I'm almost* [03:45:45] <@Souma> uh [03:45:48] <@Souma> what is gecko's TL name again? [03:46:58] <rabidch> G3CKO [03:47:10] <rabidch> i played 2 games of dota and you're still making it [03:47:43] <@Souma> lol [03:47:46] <@Souma> shush
From what I remember of KMD skill in DotA 2, BW and LoL it will be an easy win for the Otaku. To bad they dont have me to carry them through DotA 2 lawl.
They can't possibly take a challenge seriously as they know they'd get whooped. I fully expect a dodge, so it's better if we can both just laugh it off.
when the fuck did I agree to playing on the dota 2 roster O.o
[00:50] Kipsate [00:50] I have a question. [00:50] You must answer honestly. [00:51] uhoh [00:51] whats your cup size kipsate [00:51] ADT or KMD? [00:51] adt cause kdm died like a year ago for me [00:51] snap. [00:51] +1 Kipsate to roster.

Why didn't you challenge another thread with the same pathetic stature? The Idra Fanclub has a paltry sum of ~57k replies, you small fry can duke it out. KMD doesn't even bat an eyelash at these puny threads. Get on our level son.

Sounds like KMD is terrified of our challenge. Allow me to quote some dude from the KMD:

It's almost impossible to win.
People in your thread already acknowledge the truth, that you stand no chance. So the only way for you to deal with this challenge is to 'Ostrich' it. So IMO you gotta find yourself some real soft sand, and just stick your head firmly into it. When you do that, all challenges towards your thread and honor disappear!
But seriously though, kmd in general doesn't really have any people in terms of bw/sctoo/league. I only know craton plays league and that's just because it's in his signature. In fact the thread as a whole is nowhere near as cohesive/community-centric as adt at all, it's just a place with korean music and/or people.

Why would KMD take a contest that we have no chance of winning? No one plays games anymore aside from a couple moba players who suck.
Besides, I don't know where ADT gets this sense of rivalry from. KMD doesn't give a fuck about other threads, you can consider this a victory and continue being half our size while we ignore you.

Listen to all this fear. But at least he knows his bloated thread stands no chance.

I just know we wouldn't win, KMDers suck at games. I could challenge you to a half-marathon or to a Tolkeinverse trivia session or something I know you couldn't beat me at, and then gloat when you backed down from that. Doesn't mean a damn thing.

you know this was mostly a joke right? We wanted to see if you guys wanted to play a game, but what fun is it to just say, "Hey wanna play us in some game?" No, fuck that. Instead we made it a challenge. Don't get so worked up.

In all seriousness, it'd be cool to have the more closed off circles play each other on TL. Feels like a good way to get to know more people.
On July 20 2013 02:13 Juliette wrote: no one that still goes to kmd plays video games though :[.
Yeah :< the ones we play aren't necessarily the competitive type etc as well.
Also @znf kmd is not closed off at all. It's just a thread, not some kind of close-knit community. Random people ask for help identifying shit all the time and someone will answer, it's just a place to spam pics, mvs, talk about artists and groups, that kind of stuff. So like any other thread dedicated to a topic except it has a really bad rep for creepiness.

KMD has had people literally permabanned and rules instantiated for pure creepiness. There's some wierdos I can think of on ADT too, but it's almost amateur hour compared to Tu or Haxx.

Oh okay, must have read your post wrong :X
Souma: fair enough lol T.T but yeah that's true kmd can be mega creepers [though technically since said mega creepers have been permed, creeper level has dropped significantly]

Creepy weirdos that surpass Shauni? Excuse me while I go have nightmares forever at the mere idea.

Shauni level is amateur level compared to them. That's really scary.

KMD has a rule for "No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories" which didn't exist for a while. There were some posts by certain people and it was put in place.

I lurk KMD a lot (moreso than I do ADT actually lol), and the wet dream stories etc. can't compare with the creeper that is Shauni. =_=
Worse than Tu's eyelicking fetish and sending gifts to Nicole?
The sad thing is the KMD community is still pretty tame compared to the kpop community at large. There's this Rainbow fan that was so creepy that Jisook actually knows about him. Like, holy crap.
On July 20 2013 04:02 Souma wrote: As someone who posts in ADT, I'm surprised you've never heard rumors of the Shauni machine. o_O
I tend to just talk about manga I'm reading/anime I'm watching, I don't delve into the IRC side of things. I don't understand half of the references you guys make about each other lol.
It was kind of unavoidable in KMD, the shitstorms that started from some of those posts/stories.... unreal man. Besides, just at a base level there's very little about anime fandom that is as creepy as kpop idol worship, aside from the super NEET and some con-goers.
On July 20 2013 04:31 Requizen wrote: Man Shauni you always seem so normal when you just talk about anime and stuff, why do you never show this side of you on TL?
...actually that's probably a dumb question. It's also probably safer for my sanity if you don't.
We should do a hall of creepy fame competition, but then both threads would just get closed by mods.
I was just about to say....it sounds like both KMD and ADT are pretty proud of their creepers.

I'm sure out of the entire ADT, you guys could pull together at least 2 people to sing some anime theme song. Even I can sing sailor moon/madoka/angel beats/deathnote/kenshin opening songs -.-;;
