Just signed a deal with the Discovery channel for a 6 episode run.

We'll feature the best of arcade collecting (think Chasing Ghosts the tv show):

-Shoddy restoration jobs sold to uneducated customers
-Collectors getting in over their heads while destroying their savings and relationships
-Warehouse finds!
-Geeks grasping at immortality by achieving high score "world records" on obscure coin-ops
-Youtube personalities!
-Semi-retarded jarheads and the sycophants who worship them
-Toy matching with arcade game segments
-Mame monstrosity of the week
-Time-lapse video of typical collector weight gain

They're not paying much to start, but that's ok. If it's a hit, we'll be on easy street!

If you had cleaned this up a bit, I bet you would've gotten at least 1-2 posts before someone checked the date. ;)

WooT this has WIN stamped all over it. april fools style tho :(
 
I don't get it. If you're just trollin', why do you even bother to do it in this particular forum? You know the mods will just remove it, right? If you would have placed this pointless thread in the "Chat about Anything" forum, it would atleast flounder for a few days before it would be caught and removed.


All I can say now is....

Wait - this was actually supposed to make someone angry?

A barely irritating post, on April Fool's Day. Man, the OP is livin' on the edge! :D

He's got a little tissy-fit going on between himself and Richie Knucklez. This is a way for him to throw jabs while using a shield of "April's Fool Day" as a cover. It's obvious what he's doing.

Drama is fun to sit back and watch. I just think this crap needs to be kept in the Chat about anything section. It's pointless here.

i know you're pissed that rk can sell his games at a premium price and you can't, but you really have no business in messing with a guys reputation. have you ever been to his arcade? anyone who has can tell you, his games are top notch, not a shoddy restoration in the bunch. some of the best examples you'll ever see. you need to let it go, dude.

Guys, this was an April Fools joke. No more, no less. I suggest you take eXidy's advice and loosen your panties. I'm glad some of you appreciated it.

Just an april fools joke? Ah, cmon now. Dont insult our intelligence. Its clear what you were trying to do. Maybe you meant it in a lighthearted manner to help ease tensions between you two. If it was just a joke, with no true relation to anything real or arcade related, it was placed in the wrong thread. That's my only point regarding this thread.

Carry on.
 
I take offence to these two.

-Youtube personalities! (Future Youtube Personalitite)

-Semi-retarded jarheads and the sycophants who worship them (Not retarted but have some who think I am and some who are fans.)
 
I read the first post and thought, "Cool!". Then I read the next post and thought, "Oh yeah, it's April 1st! Nice joke!".

Then others chime in about this being a Franky Knuckles rivalry post. I wouldn't have known that by just reading the first post, which by itself is sort of entertaining to read.

I'm not taking sides, it just seems pointless how this escalated so quickly into people passing judgement.

Oh, and Happy April Fool's Day!
