Well, that was fast work. Tell me JM, what is the fire signifying, are you implementing your negative rating scale?

By the way, that little joke with the link you gave is very funny, you actually had me wondering, even if it was for just a moment. Poor little guy, why is he losing his head?

Anyway,I'm glad you are back.

I thought that was pretty cool really! That guy losing his head every few seconds. But then I am easily amused.  ;D

Of course seeing as how this is moreawesomethanyou.com I think we could do with some burninating of the peasants and junk like that.

I just keep picturing the peasants running around burning, yelling feebly at Trogdor: "Please stop burninating us massive beefy armed dragon-man!"
Mwahahahahaha!!!

I am glad you're in a good mood again :P
But I do think JM prefers tanks. I received quite an education about tanks, turrets etc. from JM and Larry.

The fire is kind of a placeholder. It also symbolizes burnination.

I see. I only asked because I remember (vaguely) a post of yours that had to do with rating systems. Something like "positive ratings are for wusses, we need negative ratings and fire and flames" or something like that. It would've been interesting to see how you would implement that; but I have no doubt, if anyone can, it's you.

Yes! Burnination for all! I notice that the fire looks suspiciously similiar to the Sims fire graphic. Hmm.

You should implement something like slashdot's system, except use "interesting" or "controversial" as your yardstick. That would be cool. And useful, in a fire-related sort of way.

Ahh, but interesting isn't neccessarily helpful, and controversial isn't neccessarily bad, and it could be both. What then? Based on comments JM has made in the Daily Idiot, I suspect there will be no system of this type and obnoxious parties will simply be burninated (sitebanned?).
Please Oh Great Pescado, don't rip off my lips for presuming to offer conjecture.
