User:Ghost Jam/PIE

The following is made of awesome and win. It is the result of a joke placed on the Proposals page that should have only lasted, at most, a few hours. Instead, it stretched on for days. It would have passed too, if given two more days. However, all jokes must end (Uniju told on me) and Wayoshi stepped in.

But, that's ok, here it is, archived for your enjoyment. And worry not, my pie loving readers, the Legend of Pie is not over.

Pie For Everyone

I was sifting through old files the other day, and I happen to think "What could make this job better?" Well, the obvious answer was pie.

So, I'm proposing that we have a selection of delicious pies available to any and all of our editors 24/7. Flavors include apple, cherry, blueberry and freedom (due to monitory constraints, it might be wise to limit ourselves to just those flavors). Further, these pies would be made and hand delivered by Wayoshi, using his, and I quote, "1337 wiki skillz".

Think about this for a moment. If out active users had a hot, fresh slice of grandmas straight from the oven pie hand delivered to them while they edit....well, just think of the high quality articles that we would gain. A full, satisfied stomach is a power force.

Proposer: Ghost Jam
Deadline: Nov. 3rd, 15:00

Delicious Pie

1. Ghost Jam
2. Glowsquid As a beleiver of fascism, I know that the pie achieve greater control on the citizen and help create a better state. Glory to the pie!
3. Per Ghost Jam XD Mr. Guy the Guy Talk!^E
4. Mr.Vruet info|talk|chat I disagree with the pie idea but we could REWARD them some how....
5. Stumpers! Gimmie, gimmie, *more*! I love anything that enriches the commune. Or the communism. Whichever.
6. ~PY -Pie is cool. I still don't understand this though.
7. Snack 17:18, 30 October 2007 (EDT) - Back in '88, we didn't have the technology to hax0r pies through the intarwebz... These days, leading n00bs over at Wikipedia have developed this technology... But the proposal was thrown any since eveyone thought it was a joke... But the technology IS HERE, we just have to utilize it. If we implement this pie-hax0ring tech, we will be world famous! We could get our own Saturday morning cartoon!

9. 3D, it's just a joke, but this is my style.
10. Shrooby ^Talk Per Ghost Jam!
11. Peachycakes 3.14 Pi is good.
12. ^Plumber Pie is better than Pi though.

No Pie for You (AKA COMMUNISM)

1. Son of Suns - This is pure nonsense. I also believe this proposal is so ridiculus, and I am voting for its removal. And I am a communist so I guess I am in the right section.
2. Walkazo - Per SoS (except I'm an anarchist, not a communist). I get that this a joke and I'm being a bit of a stick-in-the-mud, but the wiki is for creating professional articles about Mario. Leave the jokes for your Userpages.
3. ~Uniju(T-C-E)...Did someone hack his account just to make a spammy proposal? <_<
4. Master Crash This is by far the most ridiculous, useless proposal i've ever seen.
5. My Bloody Valentine Virtual Pie = Totally worthless. -_-
6. Booster -- Ugh.
7. Cobold (talk · contribs) - I don't like pie. Give me milk!
8. King Mario

10. Xzelion^ETC Waffles are better.

Comments

I vote for glasses of milk instead of pie...

...er, yes, what exactly are you trying to say? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 12:41, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

I was thinking that we could have a 'Pie Button' on the header bar. A user could simply click it when he/she wants pie. The button would set off an alarm on Wayoshi's computer, directing him to hax0r the pie. -- Chris 12:48, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

This proposal is perhap the most hilarious thing I ever saw here, good job. Glowsquid

What The heck is this supposed to mean? Pie?

Master Crash

Oh, for goodness sakes, this is the most ridiculous proposal I have ever seen! Why would you want to add Virtual Pie!? My Bloody Valentine

Did any of you ever heard of something called "Tongue-in-c

heck humor"? Glowsquid

Did you ever hear of "Serious threads"? Serious threads are for serious business. Proposals are serious thread. ~Uniju(T-C-E)

This is the last time I joke with you people. -_- -- Chris 17:40, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

LOL!..... you guys aren't gonna beat up each other are you?

Master Crash

ASPLOSION! Xzelion^ETC The Pies go boom

Ok, nearly the last time.

You all don't seem to understand just how 1337 Wayoshi really is. He is so damn 1337 that he can actually hax0r a piece of pie, physically, through your computer screen. There is nothing virtual about it.

And I think it would be hilarious to leave a message on his talk page stating that the community has decided that he needs to start baking pies. -- Chris 17:45, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

The entire is stupid, anyway. Like Vruet said, Pie is a stupid idea, but Users should get a reward of some kind. Maybe something like what Wikipedia has. My Bloody Valentine

I remember someone proposing Barnstars, but that didn't fly so well. -- Chris 14:47, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Having a reward would be lame. If you actually want to do it, then a reward is not needed, and if you DON'T want to do it, no ones FORCING you to do it over the internet. ~Uniju(T-C-E)

Wouldn't you like to get some respect from the community? It's the least we can do, really. Seriously, man... you know you'd like it if Porple came over to your page and slapped on the Official Steve of Approval or whatnot. I dunno... something clever, not like that. Stumpers! 22:45, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

No, it sounds like nothing but bragging rights. ~Uniju(T-C-E)

Wouldn't being promoted to Patroller, Sysop or 'Crat be considered a bragging right, Uniju? My Bloody Valentine

No, a Patroller, Sysops, or 'Crat actually does something. A template does NOT. ~Uniju(T-C-E)

How is that NOT something to brag about? -- Chris 00:04, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

I wish people could have some fun.~PY

Purple Yoshi: These Proposals are about SERIOUS issues, not joke issues. Want to make a joke like this, make it on your Userpage. My Bloody Valentine

While is started as a joke, it does have a few serious applications, especially since other people have joined the argument. I agree that we should have some kind of user recognition for those who contribute the most (I'm partial to Master Crash's idea below).

DP, I'm going to ask you to lighten up a bit. I don't mean that as an insult or an attack. Just....take things in stride, that tends to be the rule of thumb around here. -- Chris 14:47, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Instead of having pie, at the end of every year, there should be rewards for like:

• The most contributant user
• The nicest user
• ETC

and get like a special userbox for these awards.

for instants, there should be a pic of a golden mario trophy, and on the side it says:

This user has been the most contributant user in 2007.

Master Crash

Didn't we already do the awards thing Master Crash? A couple users won user awards at the annual Mario Wiki awards. And isn't that gonna happen again next year? I guess I am confused, 'cause we have already have done user awards at the end of the year. -- Son of Suns Or maybe I'm wrong....any help?

People, there is NOTHING FUNNY about pie. This proposal is SERIOUS BUISNESS. Snack 17:24, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

I agree with Master Crash. And, SoS, even if we DO have User Awards on the Mario Wiki Awards, what's stopping us from giving out casual rewards? My Bloody Valentine

Ummmm....nothing. I wasn't talking about casual awards though. I was merely pointing out the wiki already does what Master Crash wants it to do (I think). -- Son of Suns

We had awards to games, characters, etc., but not to users. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:41, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

Case closed! We need User awards! Perhaps... My Bloody Valentine

Nevermind then. And the lack of them does not mean we should have them. I mean, we've had this discussion before, and we've turned down awards many times as to not cause pointless flaming over "he got an award and I didn't" and all that junk. -- Son of Suns

Oh, I don't mean voting who gets an award. I mean giving a User an award for a good job they did in a certain field on the Wiki. My Bloody Valentine

I know what you mean DP. But that exact thing you just described has been shot down in the past for the potential of increased flaming between users. -- Son of Suns

OK, meh, it was worth a try to get awards here. My Bloody Valentine

I cant believe that 11 voters are voting for pie, THIS IS A JOKE! PP

Whatever. It's not like anything will come of this proposal. It will pass then nothing will happen. And if we do add a pie function at the top of all pages, I will personally lead the boycott of the Super Mario Wiki. -- Son of Suns

• sigh* Everyone get so heated up for nothing these days.

Glowsquid

A pie button at the top of the wiki is not "nothing". If this is a serious proposal, and that's what happens, this wiki will become a joke. If this proposal is a joke, it should be removed. -- Son of Suns

Quite interestinly, we don't even have Wayoshi's word on this yet. According to the proposal, he will use his 1337ness to do that. Does he even agree? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 18:39, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

Well, IMO, the wiki lost any credibilty it might had with the whole "Wayoshi = Willy ZOMG!" thing.

Glowsquid

Regardless of what happens, I win. Simply because my proposal is getting Son of Sons all worked up. -- Chris 20:27, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

Just wait until I start moving all articles here to a new wiki. ;) -- Son of Suns

(:@ OH NOEZ!!!

Master Crash

SoS, allow me to help you move articles from here to a new Wiki. :P My Bloody Valentine

( %@ AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Master Crash
