SomethingAwful Ambassador?

Post by Trestkon »

Anyone have a SA account and want to be our PR ambassador? This thread has recently been brought to our attention and it's driving me absolutely bonkers that some of them seem to be under the impression that a trailer from three years ago represents the final quality of the mod. Yes, it's extremely OCD of me, but I can't help it ](*,)

Extremely OCD. Who cares about SA goons? The only thing they've given the internet is a Yahoo Answers parody video and a memetic echo chamber. Maybe someone has paid 9.95$ USD to bring TNM to the unwashed masses ;-)

I might not be helping the PR effort with this post :). Still, I think something awful is.

Oh yes, certainly ANY PR is basically good PR, but that old trailer just makes me cringe :p

They have the briliant JC Tenton thread.

I suppose I could act as the SA ambassador. It's easy for things to snowball into disaster over there, so it'll be interesting to see if I can keep spirits high about the mod :P

I'm not entirely sure why, but after reading Kale's post, this comic just sprang to mind:

I'm a goon. I'd recommend you get an account Trestkon, it's worth the ten bux!

I suppose I could post an OP if you give the details, screenshots, and thread title you want... I'd probably rather Kale do it though.

Like I said, I'm more than willing to throw up a thread on SA. Just tell me what you want people to know and I'll make it happen :)

I don't know why anyone would care about what those (expletive deleted in my mind) "people" think about anything at all.

I just read that whole SA thread.

I had no idea so many people hated tongue-in-cheek humor. It must be some Deus Ex expectation thing. 99 percent of the people unfamiliar with the mod are expecting a totally dead serious story. Can't just have fun with a premise. Or that's just how SomethingAwful is.

"And that's why we can't have nice things."

I guess what surprises me even more is that they're complaining about internet humor on a forum that is the mother of nearly half of all internet humor in existence.

Yeah ironic for SA of all places to be complaining about tongue in cheek humour
