Locks:

— btimbit is one of the ultimate good guys around here, no way people are voting him. Love Sliver but sorry this is no contest.

- OOtC
— Torque might be direct but that + his car guy thing is gonna play way better here than the whiney “I can’t drive and hey guys omg I have a nintendo switch why is nobody talking about nintendo switch” thing

- PaperBagger
— unfortunately it’s tough to see cheese winning against a top contender

- Locke
— Nobody likes accountants

- Me
— diss might get into it deeper and more seriously with posters but I have quantity on my side and know what buttons to push and this is a numbers game. I’m the most condescending, antagonist poster this board has ever seen. Beat that.

- Psycenet
— is Blaster even annoying to anyone? maybe in FOI

- Zary
— Corsi a few years ago maybe, he’s old and low energy now, Zary can kick it as well as anyone

Toss Ups:
- Doctorfever vs MathGod
— both annoying in their own ways, but the main difference is dumb vs naive. both guys who, at a certain point, you just wish would stop posting. At least MG makes a good point once in a while and generally knows how to put a thought together, but he gets into it with a lot of people and doesn’t know when to quit. It’s unclear is DF has ever had a good point, but he thinks he has. Great matchup.

- Johnny Makarov vs Ozy Flame
— A pretty ultimate matchup. The guy who you never want on your side vs the guy who calls you creepy if it gets any indication you aren’t on his side. JM knows nothing and it’s unclear he’s even a real person, whereas Ozy believes in aliens and is obsessed with letting people know he lives in Toronto and used to live in Calgary but lives in Toronto now and did you know he lives in Toronto? Probably lives in Brampton.

- WO vs TrentCrimm
— Another great matchup. Two of the most easily triggered posters in the site, one leans into it and the other wants you desperately to convince you he isn’t triggered. Trent might have an advantage on account of history (wall of shame, quitting and coming back with an english accent two days later) and the thing where he tries to wax poetic about topic clearly trying to hide his awkward nature and self-doubt, but WO might have flipped out on enough people and offended enough with genuinely terrible opinions that he’ll have a good shot.
Ooph. So this must be how it feels to get drafted during a commercial break.

(as happened to 3x NBA MVP Nikola Jokic when he was picked in the 2nd round)



Did you guys know that this is the best basketball player in the world right now?

In any other thread I'd be thoughtful enough to put this in a spoiler tag. But in this thread?



edit: dang, that headshot was supposed to be at least...three times as big!

My take on the matchups:

JBo - Everlast
Slight advantage to JBo knowing how much work that Everlast has done for other CP members.


btimbit - sliver
Big advantage Sliver here, his takes on dogs as well as some of the half batty stuff he does (what grown man with working legs needs a mobility scooter?) make him a heavy favourite.


OOTC - Torquedog
OOTC pretty easy here, I remember Torquedogs post in the pet euthanasia thread and he’s seemed like a good guy.


D as in David - Jason14h
D as in David with a slight advantage for being on old fart trying to crack jokes but landing sub 5% as funny.


DoctorFever - MathGod
Really no strong opinions here, never been annoyed by either.


PB14 - bc-Chris
“I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend” - Third Eye Blind. This won’t be close.


Johnny Makarov vs Ozy_Flame
I think it’s Ozy’s to lose, but what a battle of the titans. History in the making right here. Ozy has the uncanny ability to make up lies about posters and delude himself into believing it. Frequently gets in heated arguments with scores of posters and has a perpetual butthurt aura about him. 0 redeeming qualities.


Locke - DownInFlames
Another one where neither guy has ever bugged me, maybe Locke as he posts a lot? Never hateful or offensive stuff, overall good guys here though.


2StonedBirds - Just A Guy
I feel 2SB has probably pissed off some people in the past but nothings coming to mind.


Powderjunkie - Bonded
2 marshmallows enter but only one will leave.


Pepsifree - Dissentowner
You pay for your whole seat but you’ll only need the edge. Hate to even venture a guess here. All I will say is that if it’s a tie the website auto picks the winner. Under different circumstances this could have been the Stanley cup of dbaggery finals.


WO403 - TCI
Solid matchup here, you’ve got one guy who’s had quite his share in meltdowns and another who had the quickest turnaround from leaving the site to a new user account. Really don’t know where this one goes.


Gullfoss - TheScorpion
Gullfoss fairly heavily, Scorp has won over the hearts of many posters, how brave is he for being only 12 years old. Gullfoss is a certified dick.


Bizaro86 - PsYcNeT
Heavily favoured for PsYcNeT, anytime you read a political post from him you have to open urban dictionary to decipher some phrase he just recently feltched out of Jon Stewart’s butthole.


CHL - ZM
A few years ago it would have been CHL but with ZM’s long history of being here since march 2024 (lol) it’s gotta go to ZM. CHL you’ve really chilled out recently.


Monahanmer - Keenan87
I can’t think of any tiffs Keenan87s been in but Monahammers had a few. Slight advantage Monahammer.

I just ripped on a stroke victim yesterday before lunch.
He upsets the Oiler fan members multiple times every spring.

It's a tough call between me and Locke. I like the guy and if I have anything negative to say it's that he needs a hobby. I'm a nobody so I'd give him the advantage just on awareness.

Stupid vacation, can’t believe I missed this.

I hope MathGod takes it for his informative but hour long YouTube video with no summaries or timestamps. Just watch this.

I look through that list and don’t see any real annoying posters they tend to filter themselves out overtime.

See? Can’t resist, and couldn’t even come up with anything original. Hard to respect the game here without just feeling sorry for them.

Extra points to PauperBagger13 for making death threats to fellow posters and not getting banned. That's a skill. Classic internet troll, disposable and unremarkable.

I think blatant attempts to win should be an automatic DQ.

"attempts to win"


Nothing that happens after this thread was created counts to consideration.

Watching all of you dunderheads fight each other and cry salty tears is so much fun to watch from the sidelines. Advantage - Muta.

Is Butterfly still kicking around? I think she deserves to be on here for her goalie arguments
Someone is not doing that well in my family, so I haven't been around much.

Doesn't look like you're in on the game. Fwiw I was going to take you to the end.
