| Just out of interest Reva, (or anyone else here who indulges in this kind of activity) do you pre-plan the joke(s) when you first see the match up, or do you wait until shortly before and risk writers block but gain and advantage in relevance (to the persons recent activities\other jokes) ? |
With the forum battles, I'd just wait till the last minute usually. On the main page, though, I've been doing my battles about a week ahead, and usually had the ideas even before that. Mainly to make sure I'd always have everything up on time (unlike many other people)

WOOT! 2nd place! So, now you get an internetless, powerless Zach for the semi final. Go team reva! I'd be posting "Go team Zach!" on his forum, but he already posted his "daily" comic for this month and wouldn't read it in time ;)
reva- 04-28-2006
Ah, well it seems I may be in trouble, as Zach is back with the Internet (and is also quite fond of warning me of my impending defeat via IM).
Meanwhile, I still need to come up with a battle in the next 2 days or so :S

Well.....If I my present my personal opinion as a guy who insults folk for a living and risks the consequences (I'm the campus bartender);
Go for a scattergun aprouch with as many unsubstantiated lies as possible;
A behind the scenes look at the 'triumph over adversity' that Zach as gone through to pay his rent\electricity bill\Pimp and upload his battle; Selling crack at the primary school. the previously suggested selling his kidneys\rear entry, child pornography with added incest, (The dude has kids right?),his habit of drunken grave robbing and necrophilia, a career as a backstreet abortionist, numerous convictions for rape, murder, streetwalking, satanic practice, and creating a webcomic that's funny only 25% of the time.
(actually the last one's technically a positive thing on the grand scheme of things.)
In the old boxing scheme of things if you keep hitting the guy sooner or later something will knock him out. /Devil

Yeah, Zach has already claimed victory in his podcast but incourages people to vote so he can win by a larger margin.
Oh, and I see you decided to go with the bum-rush approach.
reva- 05-01-2006
that he did and that i did.
I originally just meant to use a few, but I kept thinking up more things until I decided I might as well through in enough obscure references that everyone would get at least one of them.
It's not been posted officially yet, but yeah... telling people to vote for him (or implying that they should vote for him, rather), was technically against the rules for SB. so zach's taking the loss this round (his own choice, I told him I didn't really mind). but i'll likely be up against him again for the championship round.
TwoBuy- 05-02-2006
Wow, when I listened it sounded like he was asking for people to vote in general, not to vote for him. Just that he was implying that naturally everyone would vote for him anyway cause he'd make a better comic. You know, for comic effect in his pod-cast.
But yeah, he'll be in the final. Neither Sideburns nor Kyote have a realistic chance.

Hard to knock down Zack.
I mean come one, He posts nothing and still beats Sambro. Though to be fair, by that point Sambro's anti-battles were getting on evevn my nerves.
I realize this post comes after the end of the season, but I haven't really given a thought to whether or not I care ;)

Petition Sambro to let the creators of
IHF compete. If either my brother or I get in Season 5 I can
personally guaranty at least one victory over Zach.
I plan to personally issue this challenge if I can make it on his podcast.
reva- 05-03-2006
Well, petitionning Sambro probably wouldn't do much more than annoy Sambro (especially since with the sale of SketchBattle still in the works, it may not even be Sambro choosing the competitors). An application for Season 5 would probably get the job done better ;) Anyhow, your guarantee may be a bit hard to come by, as Zach's currently in Season 4, and although there's no set rule against it, each season usually has 6 new people.
TwoBuy- 05-03-2006
Yes, we've actually both applied already :). And I know Zach used to do sketch-battle-esk stuff before this season, but it might have been on sambro's other site.
Oh, and I don't think pissing sambro off would hurt my chances any...

The whole sale thing struck me as being a little off-beat. Made me feel dirty. I have not decided whether I will forgive him or not for even posting it.
reva- 05-03-2006
Well, if he doesn't care to deal with all the site's responsibilities anymore, it would make sense that he'd let someone else buy the site and take control, rather than just letting it go to waste.
Regardless, I'm not really sure what the current situation is with that anyhow.
flamingkinkos- 05-03-2006
The current situation is that Keffy and I are buying it, last I heard.
That is all.
PS. Seriously, that was it.
PSS. Seriously, nothing more.
PSSS Why are you still reading these?
