♘ The Knights of WTF
-
My apologies, good knights of WTF. I have been dealing with WTFs of the Realm and neglected to do my duties here, which I shall surely rectify.
For the record, those qualified with a badge of Dickweedery are considered no more or less qualified than any other Knight of WTF, since one does not need to be a dickweed - or even @royal_poet's variation of the same term! - to be a Knight of WTF.
-
Can I be "Sir Mott555 of I have no idea WTF is going on here"?
I hereby dub thee Lord Knight @mott555 of Having No Idea WTF Is Going On Here. May your Likes thread always be shiny and such WTFs of Discourse breaking proportions!
-
@Arantor, I nominate blakey for a knighthood. Fun suggestions for his title are welcome.
I also nominate mikeTheLiar as
Lord Knight mikeTheLiar of the worst of the worst
.also Luhmann as
Lord B*****m Luhmann of that tiny place that makes nice beer
.In his absence, I hereby dub Lord Knight @mikeTheLiar as the Worst of the Worst. May your absence be temporary and your WTFs worthy.
I hereby dub Lord Knight @Luhmann of That Tiny Place That Makes Nice Beer, But Whose Name We Dare Not Speak. May your beer never run flat and your WTFs be amusing in comic form.
As for blakeyrat...
I hereby dub thee Lord Knight @blakeyrat of the Epic Rant of Profane Shouty. May your WTFs be mighty and your shoulder lizards untroubling. Go forth and be awesome.
-
I would like to request entry into the Order of the Knights of WTF. I humbly petition for the title Lord Knight @abarker, Master of the Shifting Avatar
Edit: My apologies to Lord Knight @Arantor of the PHP Hammer for failing to mention him in the initial draft of this petition. Also, should he find this title unacceptable, there is a proposed modification two posts down.
I hereby dub thee Lord Knight @abarker, Master of the Frequently Shifting Avatar. May your fist always be green and your Hulk pants purple, and your WTFs suitable for a Whedon film as interesting plot details.
-
I would petition Lord Knight @Arantor and the court of the Knights of WTF for the title
Lord Knight @Spencer of the Paradoxically Ahead in Time Yet Behind Current Events
.I would consider other title suggestions that follow a similar theme, or not if they are still pleasing.
I dub thee Lord Knight @Spencer of the Paradoxically Ahead In Time Yet Behind Current Events. May your Time Lordiness always be respected and your WTFs of time shifting proportions.

Dear Lord Knight,
I humbly request membership to you most WTFeriffic Order of the Knights of WTF.
I promise to uphold all values that are erm... valued by the Order.
I shall double-check the boundaries of my array indexes (which might be difficult given my chosen screenname, but I shall doeth my bestest).
I shall neither overengineer nor underengineer my software. I shall not think of my users as unpaid β-testers, but as α-people worthy of respect and dedication.
I will abstain from writing software for the next 10 years, but make things that work now instead.
If doing the right thing means Doing it Wrong™, I will Do it Wrong™ without hesitation.
I will stay away from <tt>meta.d</tt>, but spend my time in a more productive way by posting in the Almighty Likes thread, for 100k and higher glory of the almighty Order of the Knights of WTF.
My posts will be compiled with the-pendantic
flag and conform to the relevant ISO's, RFC's and WTFs.I will live by these rules without exception (unless properly wrapped in a
try/catch
block).
If I ever succumb to theCotCDCK, may I be punished in the ear with the Purple Dildo of Cleansing, applied by your most esteemed Lord Knight @algorythmics.I humbly salute you,
OffByOne
aspiring to be Lord Knight @OffByOne, Destroyer of StackframesI hereby dub thee Lord Knight @OffByOne, Destroyer of Stackframes, One of the
TwoThree Things Hard In CompSci. Such worthy applications deserve worthy titles; may your WTFs always be fulfilling and epic, full of correctly Doing It Wrong™, conforming to all relevant ISORFCWTH-pendantry -worsethanfailure
flags and may they always be glorious.
-
Were I to join this illustrious order, I would seek to humbly style myself as:
@dkf, Knight Pedant of the Order of Dickweeds
(Hey, I've even got the badge.)
I hereby dub thee Lord Knight @dkf, Knight Pendant of the Order of Dickweeds. May your WTFs always be WTFy, and full of pendantry as befits your badge.
-
I believe all pending knighthoods have been granted, all that remains is for me to wish you all
$deity
speed and go forth and do what you do best with WTFs! (And then to update the first post)
-
And I found another bug in Discourse in updating the first post.
If ever there were doubts that this place is the true home of the Knights of WTF, they have been cast aside.
-
I hereby dub thee Lord Knight @abarker, Master of the Frequently Shifting Avatar. May your fist always be green and your Hulk pants purple, and your WTFs suitable for a Whedon film as interesting plot details.
I thank thee, Lord Knight @Arantor, for this hono[spoiler]u[/spoiler]r.
It seems that I my avatars must needs follow a theme, at least for a time.

At least until it stops being funny

At least until it stops being funny
Way after it stops being funny. It's here, after all.
-
You know there are places where jokes go to die? This is the after-life hell of jokes.
-
Thank you, good sir Knight!
I'm trying to get my "real name" to reflect my Knightly title, but I can't seem to get the overstrike right.
Does anyone have suggestions? I'm using U+0336 for the effect.
-
Lord Knight @Arantor, I hereby petition to be admitted as Knight of reminding oneself the grass is not greener on the other side.
-
It doesn't look too bad. You could call the misalignment in the site's idiom.

Thanks for the screenshot. Looks better than what my browser is showing and worse in other ways
I don't know how to blame Dicsource for that though...
-
I am surprisingly touched by this.

Luckily @algorythmics isn't around at the moment.
-
wait, @mikeTheLiar is back?

-

I shall seek to get the relevant emblem emblazoned upon my shield forthwith!

My Lords and Ladies of the Order of the Knights of WTF, I feel that we shouldst have a quest. For what of what worth are knights who have not quest? Must we languish, here in our forum of Discourse, doing nothing more than curse its foul nature? Nay! Come, let us choose a quest!

Bots. We need more bots.

The Knights of WTF and the Quest For More Bots™

The Knights of WTF and the Quest For More Bots™
My earlier objection that we have enough already stands. Besides, there's no challenge. Lady @Accalia can crank them out at a moment's notice. A quest should be challenging!
-
-
Besides, there's no challenge.
the bots are easy. making them do anything interesting is rather harder. :-p
-
That's it! A quest for the meaning of bot life!
-
The court needs a wizard to decide these things.
The knights themselves picking their own quests is ridiculous.
-
Who wants to be the court wizard?
This knight has a quest, to create TRWTF of TDWTF bots. Other quests forthcoming, I hope...
-
ooh! can we have a bot be our wizard? that would be hilarious!
i nominate @zoidberg
-
Zoidberg is afoot!
-
your RNG is really with it lately!
-
Alert too
-
Come, let us choose a quest!
You guys need to get out more. By which I mean earn trust levels in foreign discolands.
Hmm...if I go somewhere and maintain a TL1, my trust levels will have hit for the cycle.
-
You need a knighthood, good Sir.
-
Or I could apparently be the wizard. Either way, you guys pick.
-
Lord Commander @boomzilla Archwarlock of Anarchy?
-
-
is that a yes or a no?
-
I like it if you guys like it.
-
I think it is am apropriately weighty title well suited for the man who is to wield it on the field of battle.

Hey, despite not really frequenting the site, I actually (somehow) have TL3 at meta.d.
-
hmm... i should have sockbot pilot me to TL3 on meta.d.
or would that be mean?
-
Just be cautious.
-
i think just having him enabled with the reader enabled should be sufficient. i can sprinkle likes around manually...
or better idea, really be a lurker and just go over there when i want to crosspost a bug report.

Yeah, there's the posting requirement too. You have to reply to at least 10 topics. I imagine it won't be too long before I lose my TL3 over on meta.d since I barely do anything over there now.

I believe I used @darkmatter's js reader to get over that hurdle. You still need to post enough and get some likes.
