Nightmare: 2011-01-11 08:42:01 pm
Providing my roommates don't kill me:

I'm going to try to do an 8-hour marathon this weekend, to see how many games I can beat.....

Bounties, requests, and other things welcome.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-dragons-den1

Some of the notable games I'll be playing:

Ninja Gaiden II:  (version picked by users)
Super Mario Bros.
Double Dragon Game Boy
Ninja Gaiden III
Mega Man 2
Dragon Warrior GB (for the finale)

Among others

It won't be "straight playing", I'll still use the bathroom and get drinks.  I'm not doing a DW 1 run for NES.

I expected a lot more from this marathon.
A lot of games arent being played the way they should be played.

- Trekhaak
My roommate's router took a shit, we can't get it back up at the moment, and I can't seem to leech anybody else's.

We'll resume as soon as I get back up.

Zelda:  Wooden Sword Run (after Lv. 7)
Ninja Gaiden III
And DW 1 still to come.

-James
Marathon's hosed, the router went down and is staying down (leeching ATM)

I'll do the rest on a future announced date.

-James
Resuming the stream.

-James
SMAS Points Practice at first, then switching to NG 1 around 9 (casual, for points there too)

-James
NG 1, oh the bloodbath!

So after sitting in this channel for quite a while, watching him randomly ban people that hadn't even been speaking (moooh) and people whos banter was entirely innocent (UltraJMan), I'm finding it hard to believe this stream has any place here or on w00ty. Either this guy really hates his viewership or his definitions of trolling include watching his stream. At any rate it's my solid belief that his stream has no place being advertised on a site where he seems to feel that the participants are anathema and should probably be removed from this forum and w00ty.com.

Let's include some 'choice' logs, shall we?

First of all, I noticed some people in the chat talking about his criticism of the marathon. Upon telling him that calling SDA out for not having WR holders present was pretty dumb because Cody Miller IS the WR holder, my messages were deleted and I was banned. For trolling, obviously. (I use a proper IRC client, he had to disable guest chat to ban people lol)

(22:51:02) (+ShadowWraith) To be fair, I wasn't trolling. What I said was true. >_>
(22:51:05) (+ShadowWraith) Cody hadn't practised.

(22:51:11)      —› This (*!*@869D9F16.C5C06C45.ED0F2BDE.IP) ban affects: (+ShadowWraith)
(22:51:12)      —› kick: (ShadowWraith) was kicked by (NightmareJames) (NightmareJames)

After that, UltraJMan appeared in his stream with some light-hearted punnery, which got removed and he was banned afterwards.

(23:21:11) (+MegaUltraJMan) Those knife dudes aren't very "knife"
(23:21:15) (+MegaUltraJMan) :p
(23:24:02) (+MegaUltraJMan) That got you in a "hole" lot of trouble :p

^ the puns in question, my IRC client was banned so I didn't get the ban message but his name disappeared from the stream chat, which I was able to continue viewing because of NightmareJames' ineptitude regarding actually banning people.

After that, one of the members of SDA who is well known for being a friendly guy moooh decided to drop in on the stream. He was banned after 4 minutes of idling without saying anything.

(23:30:41)      —› kick: (mooohSDA_) was kicked by (NightmareJames) (NightmareJames)

Another person was then kicked for questioning this ban.

He did have a couple trolls in his stream at once point, but honestly overreacting like this is fairly childish, and I'm sure he knows it. >_>

I probably did overreact, but it was one troll after another keep coming in, and after like 6 or 7 of them, but after romscout's troll it is pretty obvious PJ or someone else was egging this on in chat, and I had no choice but to take everybody.  My Mod was not present who I asked to deal with the problem.

Considering you did have a role in the Pokemon trading thread (which started this), you are not exactly innocent ShadowWraith.

But I've had 1000 people against me at once before, if you want to start a fight, well, I'll finish it.

Nothing personal against you.

I'll let Mike decide my fate.

-James
The two people I'll considering unbanning at this point are mooooh (if he keeps quiet about the whole situation) and if he sends me a PM and states it wasn't malicious, UltraJMan.  The others are banned until Mike reviews this whole incident.

-James
I made you a fanart for today's mighty fine stream. Smiley

You know moooh's silence was filled with malice!

-Tbob

Nightmare: 2011-02-04 05:46:55 pm
mooooh's been unbanned.  Sorry if I overreacted to you personally due to your inconsiderate friends.

-James
The first order of business is to sort out who trolled and how hard.  I need to gather that information, but right now, PJ and Trekhaak are permanently banned with their regular and all aliases and are not welcome back in my channel under any circumstance.

Everyone else with the exception of moooh, UltraJMan, and rom, between 3 days and a month.  Rom's definitely banned for a month.

OK, talked to my Mod, and here's the final result:

PJ - permanent for instigating
Trekhaak - permanent for instigating
romscout - month for taunting and joining in
ShadowWraith - month for carrying this over from the Pokemon thread
tomatobob - month for egging on the situation
Despatche and elminster (sorry if I spelled your name) - 2 weeks
UltraJMan - 3 days (you should've known I was agitated when you made that joke)
The people who just questioned bans - allowed back in (I just reset the ban list)

Hopefully this puts an end to this mess.

ShadowWraith can appeal to KMD and me, but it's not likely it'll be reduced.

-James
PJ is going to be pretty upset that he's permbanned, since he loves masochistic games like Lagoon, and your stream is pretty much the Lagoon of streams

I'd still like to know where I was trolling (i wouldn't even call that trolling, it was a statement of fact) outside of that thread though. You did state that SDA should have performed better and invited the world record holders for the marathon, citing Halo as an example when Halo was actually played by the world record holder. It's not trolling to call you out on this. It's also not a huge imposition for you to say you might have been wrong.

On top of that, I couldn't really care less about being banned from your stream. The reason I was even in there in the first place was because you were unfortunately the only person that was streaming on w00ty and I figured I'd go see what was happening.
