GTP Awards 2k5 THE RESULTS!!!

[Dave A]

No-ones ever posted anything as perversely idiotic as Young_Warrior, it's not physically possible.

 

[Famine]

Hahaha.

And you still never cubed my negative score.

I've never squared it either.

 

[Ram-Rod]

Hey, Famine, since you like to write every message in INDIGO you mind if I do the same in RED? o_O

 

[VIPFREAK]

Then you'd be copying Blake.

I don't think he does it anymore though.

Do pink... nevermind then you'd be coping McLaren's Angel...

Magenta.

 

[Ram-Rod]

Bah, I totaly forgot..... um...Blue?

 

[Omnis]

I've never squared it either.

I know. You should've, though. I would've had a ****load of points.

 

[DuckRacer]

MLA uses sky blue type.

Blake uses red type.

Famine uses indigo type.

I use normal black type, just like any other sane person, and unlike all the showoffs.

 

[Omnis]

Bee uses blue.

Should I use teal?


Go Dolphins.

 

[VIPFREAK]

Oh yeah... that goober... and no... bandwagoner j/k

 

[Omnis]

Bandwagoner? Who in their right mind would use teal?





...Me. B*tch.

 

[Ram-Rod]

NAVY IS MINE!

 

[MagpieRacer]

Bugsy on Sienna!

Maybe this one

Or this

 

[VeilsideR33sub]

GADVANCE THAT TING !

 

[DuckRacer]

How did this thread turn from an awards thread to a "What color should I use to type with" thread?

 

[Ram-Rod]

NOW everyone is doing what I'm doing.

Nice sig Ram-Rod - now we look like Sony reps! lol

Famine was the first one to start this i believe, ages ago in GTP i remember two colours - Famines Purple and everyone elses black!!!

 

[G.T]

IT'S INDIGO NOT PURPLE!

 

[X5.]

Funnily enough I was going to put Indigo lol but my silly brain keeps on associating indigo with indigo blue!!!!

cheers though

 

[James2097]

I few of my votes turned up to be the eventual winners, so its nice to know I'm not completely off the mark with my perceptions of people...

Btw, wouldn't a darkish blue be the only other colour that would have similar qualities regarding readability (near enough) to purple (sorry... "indigo" - if you want to be fancy about it)?
Apparently "indigo" is the easiest colour to read on a light background as it stresses our eyes the least amount, so using blue or purple (basically a colour in that area of the spectrum) is actually beneficial to more than one's self image. But of course we all know using a whacky colour is mainly about being cool and standing out.


I don't use a whacky colour (although my w*nky designer sensibilities makes me really want to ) because I know I'm not respected enough to be thought of as anything other than a tosser if I did.

Getting away with using a whacky colour is kinda of like this IMO:

Really cool people can wear sunglasses inside without people thinking they're w*nkers.
I'm not one of them, but following my logic;

Its okay for Famine to use a whacky colour 'cause he is in fact, cool.

They're basically my thoughts on using non-standard colours for posts

 

[Blake]

I stopped with the red thing because 1) I realised I should draw attention to my posts with quality, not colour. And 2) because it really limited any formatting I could do because everything had to be red.

Then again… 💡

[Omnis]

...Black power. *fist*

 

[Famine]

Hey, Famine, since you like to write every message in INDIGO you mind if I do the same in RED? o_O

A plausible argument can be made for posting entirely in indigo, by way of reducing eye strain (indigo can be perceived more easily on light backgrounds than black can). I doubt one can be made for posting entirely in red. However, I'd have to say that if I'm allowed to post entirely in a non-black font it'd be tricky to tell any other member that they cannot.

I'd suggest NOT red though.

 

[James2097]

Unless you WANT to strain everyone's eyes!

 

[ExigeEvan]

Is green any good?

I know the eye reacts best to green but does that neccesaily mean it's better to read?

Hmmm....Indigo is the most appealing.

Bog all to do with me, squire. I'm just a citizen, not staff.

 

[VeilsideR33sub]

Famine uses Indigo and then bumps the Font Size .

Each Post .

He obviously uses a shortcut working file of tags .

A masterclass in trophy hunting .
