GKG is right! If anyone has a problem with what I post, maybe they would rather these forums be dead! I shall not pander to haters and naysayers.Giant Killer General wrote: i guess we would all rather the forums be completely dead, because if we happen to have active posters, then people just care too much. shit like this is exactly what is wrong with the community.
So without further ado, I present a genuine myth mystery!
Its Sunday, June 9th, 2013. Preseason games are in full swing (nobody showed up). The game is Barrens (Venice X2). The film is here: http://hl.udogs.net/files/Uploads/%20Us ... arrens.zip
The game starts with Willie Nelson (Renwood), starting as captain, and giving Asmodian some warrs, a mort, and a warlock.
Tirri and Xmas exchange banter, and Tirri notices that his epic sense isn't tingling, which means something awful is on the horizon.
Meanwhile, everyone has been lining up to fight each other in the middle of map, except asmo. What is asmo doing?
Oh. Well lets see how the team captain (Renwood) feels about that!
Renwood MAY have controlled Asmodian's units and fire ringed them. However he went on to try and win the game despite having a 22% handicap.
Anyways this leads to some delicious drama from Asmodian coaxed from his lips by the incubus known as Cookiecrumbler (limp)
Well if Asmodian was AFK, how does he know that it was Renwood that killed his units? Also thats not a nice thing to say about your teammate over a misunderstanding. I think Asmodian is coming off as a little defensive here.
Instead of taking out his rage on the true perpetrator of the crime, Asmodian is upset at AUGUST for making a big deal out of this. That seems... strange.
Limp defends his former teammate, while Asmodian makes a personal attack on August. Instead of leaping to Aug's defense, EW agrees.
This story is strikingly similar to one in 2011, where Godzfire supposedly blew up a dozen mauls with his dwarf, because he was given flag defense. He denies it to this day, and the only evidence to the contrary is a strange poster who claimed to be "Zilx the Cosmage". He took credit for the framing of Godzfire, citing reasons beyond the comprehension of our puny human brains.
I can't find much information on Zilx, other than this picture:
and a vague description from a myth historian
So the way I see it, we have 3 suspects in this myth mystery.Shaister wrote:a benevolent alien named Zilx the Cosmage who keeps a watchful eye out for humanity and is willing to bend time and space to protect us.
Asmodian: His possible motivation being that he is a troll, didn't care about the game, and wanted to make renwood look bad by suiciding his units and blaming him (citing afk-ness as an alibi).
Renwood: Batshit insane, hates asmodian, frustrated by him not saying he was afk at start of game, and wanted to make him look bad by suiciding his units and blaming him.
Zilx the Cosmage: He knew that if Asmodian's units killed themselves, it would infuriate August enough to write a forum post on the TMNT private forums. Asmodian would then talk shit about August in the myth lobby, in the presence of the Zakarazzi. Zaknafein would take screenshots, to write an article about the incident, in order to create drama. He must feel that if Asmodian and August remain on the same MWC team, something awful is going to happen.
