Irvine = Leach
Edgar = Leach. I mean the end of the world does not subdue his libido. Besides, Irvine was a god awful character in FF8. So naming Edgar him is like the biggest insult to give Edgar. |
Eunuch for the win!

...Anyway. I'll use Eunuch if you guys REALLY want it. And you damn well seem to. It's just a pain to type (...just doesn't flow on the keyboard, I guess) and I personally don't find it all that funny... |

You do know what a eunuch actually is, right? I know it's a historical term no longer frequently used, but still.
I mean, there's so much humor stuffed in there I'm shocked you'd find it a worthy idea to veto. Also: Cocke is acceptable but Eunuch isn't? Huh?!? Finally: If two of the characters already have hysterically inappropriate innuendo for nicknames, why not continue the trend for everyone? otherwise you have "Cocke," "Bitch," and..."Irvine." Might as well just keep the name "Edgar" then. |

Chapter 4: All brain, no balls
Yes, I know what a Eunuch is. It's just that... Edgar totally isn't. And all the humour seems to come from "AHAHA HES HITTING ON HER BUT HE HAS NO BALLS OLOLOL"
...And stop voting for lack of confidence in me. In fact, fuck it, I'm vetoing this vote and any related to that.

Especially if the suggestion is to just leave it as Mesden. Though, sadly, I'm not gonna be able to update for a week or two. I have exams and stuff coming up, as well as graduation and a trip with friends to Toronto, the Canadian city! Big Mac may take over for me. I take no responsibility for anything he does to our collective game, though I will keep a copy of the current savestate JUST IN CASE. Thanks for the continued support, everybody! Except two of you. You know who you are. |
Name him Big Daddy, or some other pimp name.

That's terrible. I take this as a direct insult. After all, it's my idea you're vetoing -- and that after you actually accepted the notion of calling Locke Cocke, and calling Terra Bitch. I mean you dare to speak down to me and belittle my idea because "Edgar isn't a eunuch" (failing to see that it's where the humor is coming from) but it's totally okay to call Terra a bitch, despite the fact she's not a bitch? And it's okay to call Locke a raunchy part of the male anatomy? And it's okay to sexually insinuate that "Cocke is entering Bitch's caverns?" Yet my idea is just sssoooo much worse, eh? Well I mean this will come as absolutely no shock to you whatsoever, but you just lost a once-interested reader. What's the point of a Let's Play topic if you're going to randomly, and for no apparently justifiable reason, veto the desicions you asked us to make?! Good luck. |
Quote:
You may have noticed that I didn't WANT to name Terra "Bitch". The Locke/Cocke aspect was funny to me, though, because I hadn't noticed it before, even though it was a one-letter change. I thought it was clever, and so did everyone else apparently. The name Eunuch... I dunno. I didn't want to be rude or anything, but... well, for one thing, as you mentioned, we had named everyone so far something rude (a fact I'm not proud of) and... I dunno. It seemed a little obvious to name the lecher Eunuch. So, yeah. The tentative decision to veto came more as, I dunno, the straw that broke the camel's back. You may have noticed that I actually DIDN'T veto it, just expressed a little resentment at having to use such obvious jokes. I was looking for a little bit of a challenge in the series' humour, though that's still not much of a reason. I didn't mean to be rude, and I'm sorry if that's what I came across as. I've been a little stressed lately but that's not an excuse. I'll try harder next time. But you guys also need to go a little easier on me, if that's okay. Two votes of no confidence and a "leaving forever" after a single unpopular decision? Come on! |
As far as Edgar being an eunich ("an" eunich sounds funny...) or not... I would totally believe that Edgar is a little gay. He's just hiding his obvious hots for Locke by acting like "I LOVE WOMEN! LOL VAGINAS RULE!"
Also, I've never played the GBA version of the game, but I have to say, that little picture next to Kefka's name is pretty hideous. I mean, I know Kefka is a freaky clown, but that picture just seems to be pushing it. (and I mean, they already have a name to tell you who's speaking, do they really need a picture too?) and as far as Sabin's name.... I vote "Beef". Because the idea of the group screaming "Beef!" when he falls off of the raft is hilarious to me. "Ah yes... Beef." But this is also coming from the person who thought it was hilarious to name Tellah from FF4 "Bation" because they usually preceded his name with "Master". I have the maturity level of a fourth grader! |

Really that goes for the thread in general. Shades of Mafia drama, I swear. Kerensky the vote bit was Okay sure fine Eunuch was maybe not the best of all possible names for ol' Eddie but a number of people thought it was the best thing runnin' and nobody offered up a suggestion that people liked better so what do you want. Not for nothing but like -- Quote:
I'm not calling this official moderationing or anything but I am gonna say you should maybe consider where you're goin' with this. And with all that that said, I mean okay if Kerensky really doesn't wanna do Eunuch or Bitch or whatevs in his thread then eh, it's not that big of a big, nobody's twisting anyone's arm to participate in this thing. Hell if anyone minds it that hard I'll go ahead and say someone else can do their own Let's Play FF6 and name people all the insults and curse words they like. Except like, the N-word cause seriously I'll fucking kill you. Or the F-g word, that one's out too. But aside from them go nuts! |
I was actually surprised at the quantity and quality of Eunuch jokes. I didn't expect much to come of it but that was actually pretty good.
Beef is good. It's fodder for sexual jokes without being explicitly about sex right up front. |
Quote:
Ya ever had one of those really bad days, but for some reason the most significant issues that are causing your strife (parental issues, issues with the opposite gender, issues at the workplace, etc.) don't get you riled up, and it just bubbles up inside until you end up getting apeshit offended at a relatively minor slight that has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the significant problems you're actually facing, but is simply presented in a way where it's much easier to vent out and take out your R-A-G-E at a presumed injustice?!? ...Dear Lord, that was a mouthful. ...but yeah, that's where I am right now. And if you've ever been there, you know how it feels. But yes, this is not half as serious as I took it. But naming Eunuch was literally the only thing I felt I did right all day -- I'm not even kidding with you on that one -- so yeah, I got a little upset. I apologize. [/threadjack] |
As Sabin is the brother of Eunuch, why not call him Balls?
Think about it. "Balls". It's so straightforwardly, in-your-face, honestly-are-you-five-years-old funny; I think that suits Sabin's character. And it gets a little more mileage out of the Eunuch jokes, and it's nice to have a theme for the brothers. |
Quote:
As for Sabin, I was thinking something more along the lines of 'Nads'. |
I'm going to suggest Dick -- a good compromise between a normal name and a dirty one. But yeah, I'm bad at this.

Quote:
Name the guys whatever you want. Stuff was bugging me yesterday, sorry. |
aww, you totally stole the best video game ever for "Let's Play" and now I'll have to wait like, a year before the buzz dies down to try it myself. Blargh.
I guess there's always Chrono Trigger... (By the way, name Sabin Biff, do it!) Edit: Actually, I was going to suggest Beef before Biff, and after looking back on this thread and noticing that Celes suggested the same thing (For exactly the same reason) I feel it would be remiss to slap such a coincidence in the face. Name him Beef, for great justice! |

Quote:
I still like Beef better though. |
If you guys are gonna make Sabin "Beef" I demand Cyan is called "Mr. Thou".

Sabin should be AHNULD.

Quote:
that is so much money. I'm fresh out of things to name Gau though. too bad you can't fit "Sir Not Appearing in This Film" nobody uses that guy. also, when it gets to the part with Relm, she must be named Bait, as in Jail. as for celes, hmm... something more inventive than bitch maybe? I know I'd get a chuckle if she were named Judas, ha ha. |
...wait, what?
Gau's a powerhouse when you first get him - and continues to be so if you bother to manage his Rages at all. In any case, it's a pity you can't name Interceptor. Then again, Seymour would still be a letter too long. |
Quote:
|
Gau should be named Douche.
Alternately: D-bag. |
Not Appearing In This Film could work as NAITF.
You're not using the whole "Sir Not Appearing In This Film" but I say fuck it, we're all just having fun with the text anyway, any time NAITF just think of the whole "Sir Not Appearing In This Film" phrase. EDIT: Slightly off topic, but if we make a Let's Play Earthbound thread, I demand it to start off with Ness as "Bitch," and favorite food is "cock". Just for the comedy gold moment below: Mom: Oh hello Bitch! Why don't you eat some cock and go off to bed? |
Quote:
but we could call him Nait-G! (Not appearing in this Game) |
Quote:
|
I would, but, I'm lazy.
Also there's the factor of the naming all taking place at the beginning of the game, and only four party members, and the dialog being all Earthbound-y. I don't think it would work. |
I'll probably use Gau a ton because getting his rages are as simple as heading to Veldt, turning on Autofire A, Frame Skip 9, and mash arrow keys for a while.
Like, I can read while I'm doing it or something. It's that simple. The thing is, I never really used him in my own playthroughs so I don't really know how to do it right. Eh... I'll figure it out. |
I never really worked out hte point of Gau. He could be really strong but it's about the same amount of effort to get, say, a couple of economisers, a gem box, genji glove and the x-attack thing that allows you attack 8 times, the big sword that casts pearl... etc etc and you can trip out 4 people so they do far more damage than Gau will ever do.
I mean if you're going spend all day tripping stuff out, you might as well do it right. |
Gau is amazing in the early-to-mid game if you swing it right. He's also damn near essential for "hard mode" games wherein people set significant handicaps on themselves.
Plus there's the matter of the effects offered by his Rages (as opposed to the abilities), the Catscratch, and so on. Oh, and he can equip the Snow Scarf. That's a nice plus. |
Quote:
Answer that one smarty McBarrel pants. Mainly, his starting stats are attrociously op, and with the correct application of esper buffs, he can outstrip even sabin in pure strength, making his physical specials in various rage forms obscenely powerful, and not dependent on any complex button presses or power up timers. He effectively becomes a "set it and forget it" killing machine. |
Yes but he can't really match the ridiculousness of 4 Ultima a turn for 6 mp, or 8 attacks in the high thousands, most of which can pearl or holy on their target.
And it takes far longer to set him up then to set up the above for example. If pisses on Kefka's leg, I'm all in though. |
Quote:
|
Ha ha. I so totally approve.
|
Quote:
...Well, first, let's set aside the fact that you cannot cast 4 Ultimas per turn. You cast one Ultima, then cast Quick, then cast Ultima twice more. ANYway, that is what you'd call "endgame". You have to go through dungeons and level up and get espers and all that crap to achieve those things. You need to actually get Ultima, teach it to someone, get the Economizer, charge through that bastard Cult of Kefka tower to get the Thamasa Gem (or GemBox, or whatever), and then you can make with the mass Ultimas. Or you can get the Genji Glove, get the Master's Scroll in that bastard lost kingdom place underground, get two Lightbringers, and do that for x8 (reduced damage) attacks. With Gau, it's a one-step process. Leap a Cloudwraith and you have free Flares. Leap Io and you get the awesome Flare Star (like Merton, only it's one sided and does fixed damage based on level). Leap a Behemoth and you get Meteor. Oh, and did I mention that Gau is Strago's best friend? Any Lore'able ability Gau uses in Strago's sight, is learned by the old man. In short, Gau is so great because he can become a nigh-invincible juggernaut with a modest economy of effort. |
Quote:
And I found all that shit fun. Running around the Veldt I just found boring. And having to wait for the right enemy wasn't exciting for me. And the veldt was boring! The Tower of Kefka was good fun. And fighting those crazy dinosaurs to get the economiser was the hardest challenge in a not originally very hard game (except when people do crrrrraaazzzzy challenges). But I guess it would be boring for some people. I still maintain the veldt was silly |
So question:
This thread has been going on for about 12 pages, have you actually started the game? Also, I recommend the name "Gauss" for Gau. |
He's already got four characters!
Quote:
If this is a joke, it went over my head. Did you read the thread at all? I suppose you meant it as a commentary on all the other posts in the thread... but that happens in LPs, it seems. *shrug* |
Am I the only one who uses the posts per page setting? I've got it set to 40/page, which makes this thread 4 pages.
I'm pretty sure that he's started the game, unless there's some point before which the game isn't considered to have begun? It's possible that he assumed that gameplay would be edited into the first post, when in fact it is added to new posts. |
Quote:
Sorry. I don't mean to be rude. But just skim over some of the other pages in the thread (such as the first?) and you should run into some pictures. Good name suggestions everyone. Like I said, I'm gonna be busy as hell for the next 2 weeks or so (exams, trips, graduation) but I'll try to work on updates during study breaks. Hopefully it doesn't end up feeling disjointed. Beef seems to be the current favourite for Sabin. Unless that changes, I'll update next time with that name. EDIT: Oh damn ninja'd twice. Anyway, I'll see what I can do about finding a dedicated hosting area for this as well for ease of reading. When that happens all old pictures will also have their sizes increased. |
I've been playing through FF6 recently, and I named my Sabin "Mullet". (And Shadow became "Kandi", because I'm hopelessly immature.) But I rather like Fifth's "Ahnuld" too...(Should that be in allcaps or what?)

Suggestion: after you post each new update, link that post in the first post. Post post post.

Less pages means less clicks.
Quote:

AHNULD gets my vote too. If we're going to have names selected by no merit other than popularity, it's almost as good as Balls.
Oh and I've got 40 posts per page too. What's the idea with having to click for a new page every 10 posts or whatever? |
I put my posts per page at maximum, and put the thread order in reverse, so that the first page at the top has the most recent replies on it, and I don't have to go through so many pages.
Lolita, yes this is superior. But Beef, Beef shall not be undone! I'm going with D-bag for Gau too, just because it's got that gangster feel to it. |
I vote AHNULD also. Just because I like that idea.
Also, 20/page is the way to go. |
Everyone is voting "Ahnuld" because Fifth mentioned it, and everyone knows that jumping on the Fifthfiend Bandwagon is the fast track to riches and fame.
Fight the power, vote Beef. Also, you probably won't catch any sort of mutative retrovirus that may or may not cause you to crave the flesh of the living. |
It's too bad we can only have six letters, because "Governator" would've totally been the perfect name... And you can't shorten that at all without losing its charm.
|
I dunno, something about all caps AHNULD is great.
Like, totally normal conversation between Terra and Locke, and then someone says, "Hey, why don't we go ask AHNULD what he thinks?" |
Quote:
|
I HAVE ONLY DONE THIS ONCE BEFORE.
But that's more clicking, which blows*.
Sabin's name should be that "safety not guaranteed" time traveling guy's name. They almost look the same. Does he even have a name? Maybe Guile. Relm could be Momo, merely because I've been on a Xenosaga kick lately. It doesn't really hold any comedic value. * may, in fact, absorb everything like a black hole |
|
I vote for Ahnuld because Fifth is my hero.
|
I'm still in favor of Beef. I mean if we're going to use whatever name Fifthfiend likes we may as well have him play the game.
|
What are we naming Shadow?
Asshat fits nicely. I'm just saying. |
I put my vote down for Beef, way too many good uses for that.
|
Shadow should be called Baram, just because.
