No, Laughing Colours is presented entirely without irony, although I could see how its tenuous command of English and overreliance on clipart might make you think otherwise.

And that it would've been done by now, given how few modern games are in there.

Eh it's not really religious persecution if your entire religious code is "Hate people who are happy." The Puritans were joyless, intolerant dicks that went around England smashing organs because they hated music--music!--and in the colonies, they were all too happy edit: did I say happy? No, they were not happy. They were perfectly somber and morose and murderous when they executed Quakers and other undesirables. They were assholes who deserved to be treated as such.

Also there were a lot of other British colonists besides the Puritans. They were never very big outside of the Northeast (because they were dicks).

And that it would've been done by now, given how few modern games are in there.

Theoretically, every year a new game has a chance of dethroning the previous best game ever, and a legitimate tournament would be of only a new year's games, the final round being the winner of the new year vs. the reigning champion. However, telling people "you have to come out and support your childhood" gets immeasurably more clicks and is good revenue for the site. Honestly, if SA had a forum poll contest where we decided if Undertale (and therefore the SJW agenda, apparently) is better than FFVII or OoT, and we got the word out far enough that it would be good to "troll SJWs" by voting against Undertale no matter the cost, we would probably have enough money from memberships to keep this forum going forever (assuming they wouldn't ALL be script kiddies with stolen credit cards who don't care about their account getting banned after the charge is denied). We could just make it "watch an ad to make a vote" instead and the money would be practically guaranteed.

I think, also, the joke might be that White Obama has Hitler hair, because Obama is a fascist Nazi or whatever? I have seen enough Hitler hair-and-mustaches photoshopped onto the man to feel reasonably certain of this assumption.

I have used the Silent Hill wiki before to remind myself of information between episodes of a Voidburger LP, and it is sad and strange (but not surprising once thought about) that the people who have memorized every detail about a series of games might also have other interests that they are a little too obsessive with.

It's a sign of how amazingly easy and problem-free my life is that when I'm playing a game and I want to find out something about the setting, I actually get annoyed if it turns out that there isn't some absurdly detailed wiki devoted to that one specific video game. Come on internet weirdos, why aren't you catering to my every whim at all times?

When I was an innocent babyfaced idiot, I thought wikis were made by many people collaborating things about the games they like together with many other people.

The thought that it's just four really insanely obsessed people doing all the work never crossed my mind.

I should note that, as pointed out in one of the gaming threads in PYF, the massive amounts of poo poo-cracking about Undertale winning against Melee led GameFAQs to actually look into if bots were involved.

The answer was yes. And not only were the bots terrible, they were voting for Melee.

I am loving this as an IoSM source, because it's just stupid, terrible people raging against a machine that doesn't exist over a result that does not, and has never, mattered. There's no horrible reality that people are reacting badly to, there's nobody getting hurt by any of this. It's just nerds crying that they couldn't rig their popularity contest hard enough.
