Yea they are old fuckers who spend their waking moments trying to be a so-called writer and struggle at doing it (and probably suck and think they are the shit). Then Klazart comes in and shows them they are worthless and doing it wrong.

God damn it.. where is he from/ethnicity? What can explain that horrid voice? he says in the video man, hes 25% indian and 75% Irish. but yea I agree. how have you never heard this guy before?

Where someone can get a huge amount of votes from internet communities for some other community/contest. Then those others get totally bent out of shape calling it cheating or rigging or whatever. But I think it is perfectly legitimate for a number of reasons. I really can't see any negative side of doing this, can anyone else?
I'm not saying it's not legitimate, but I can understand if the people of the site are pissed off.
If you've got a smallish community, and the administration runs a contest, it's to encourage new people to join and participate in the community and then also reward the people who have been supporting that community. I see it as that if someone is going to do what Klazart did, that's fine, but don't be surprised if you get disqualified by the admins, or hated on by the other participants.
EDIT: It seems that the Klazart thing is more than a small community and it's a monthly deal. I guess what I said doesn't necessarily apply to this situation, but to others where it's a one off small community competition I think it's pretty valid.

Username "Mathematics":
Number theory is the branch of pure mathematics concerned with the properties of numbers in general, and integers in particular, as well as the wider classes of problems that arise from their study.
Number theory may be subdivided into several fields, according to the methods used and the type of questions investigated. (See the list of number theory topics.)
The term "arithmetic" is also used to refer to number theory. This is a somewhat older term, which is no longer as popular as it once was. Number theory used to be called the higher arithmetic, but this too is dropping out of use. Nevertheless, it still shows up in the names of mathematical fields (arithmetic functions, arithmetic of elliptic curves).
Abstract algebra is the subject area of mathematics that studies algebraic structures, such as groups, rings, fields, modules, vector spaces, and algebras. The phrase abstract algebra was coined at the turn of the 20th century to distinguish this area from what was normally referred to as algebra, the study of the rules for manipulating formulas and algebraic expressions involving unknowns and real or complex numbers, often now called elementary algebra. The distinction is rarely made in more recent writings.
Contemporary mathematics and mathematical physics make intensive use of abstract algebra; for example, theoretical physics draws on Lie algebras. Subject areas such as algebraic number theory, algebraic topology, and algebraic geometry apply algebraic methods to other areas of mathematics. Representation theory, roughly speaking, takes the 'abstract' out of 'abstract algebra', studying the concrete side of a given structure; see model theory.
Two mathematical subject areas that study the properties of algebraic structures viewed as a whole are universal algebra and category theory. Algebraic structures, together with the associated homomorphisms, form categories. Category theory is a powerful formalism for studying and comparing different algebraic structures. In mathematics and abstract algebra, group theory studies the algebraic structures known as groups.
The concept of a group is central to abstract algebra: other well-known algebraic structures, such as rings, fields, and vector spaces can all be seen as groups endowed with additional operations and axioms. Groups recur throughout mathematics, and the methods of group theory have strongly influenced many parts of algebra. Linear algebraic groups and Lie groups are two branches of group theory that have experienced tremendous advances and have become subject areas in their own right.
Various physical systems, such as crystals and the hydrogen atom, can be modelled by symmetry groups. Thus group theory and the closely related representation theory have many applications in physics and chemistry.
Order theory is a branch of mathematics that studies various kinds of binary relations that capture the intuitive notion of ordering, providing a framework for saying when one thing is "less than" or "precedes" another. This article gives a detailed introduction to the field and includes some of the most basic definitions. For a quick lookup of order-theoretic terms, there is also an order theory glossary. A list of order topics collects the various articles in the vicinity of order theory.

His has Indian ancestry but was born and bread in Ireland is what he claims. If you listen closely though he Irish accent is really mild and he has significant American influence.

Being popular can be just as valid a reason as good writing for a publisher. Even Bush has written books..

Hey
I know it's fun, but I don't think there is any point giving those guys more reasons to hate "gamers." But if you really want to spam, please head over to the forums so I can read the critique being posted on the book itself.
P.s. if anyone feels like voting for me that would be great. Read the 4 chapters I put up and make up your own mind.

I can't stand his voice either, but the site's membership is probably the most openly needy and xenophobic group of people i've had the displeasure of reading from in a while.
When people can overcome the text barrier and concisely, precisely and consistently portray themselves as socially awkward, they definitely show talent. Sadly no one wants that type of talent, so go diaf (haha, gamer talk!)

We win the internet yet again, this time causing snobs with noses upturned to whine like schoolchildren. Delicious.

I can agree Klazart initially seems to have a horrible voice for commentating, but his other strengths makes up for it by a longshot.

OK, I should qualify my post up there by saying that I actually don't mean to encourage people to copy/paste wikipedia articles to authonomy threads. I just think the fact that someone else has done that (and the ensuing responses) is quite hilarious, given the context.
GL with your book Klaz!
