[Andy]

All the members of YWO contributed to this ultimate poll:

http://www.youngwritersonline.net/showthread.php?t=360

Which is best? This should get interesting... :)

[GeorgeMichael]

It's a standoff between Pirates :pirate: and zombies (no smiley) for me but in the end pirates :pirate: won.

[Andy]

I voted elves, because I like the ones in my story. A lot more than Tolkien's elves, and the christmas ones. :)

[Rafael Domination]

Angels...come on. A mere archangel (which is the second-lowest rank of angel, by the way) was able to pawn Satan...who's like, the biggest demon of all. (Read revelations)

Don't even get me started to Seraphim. Those guys are the strongest of angels and can probably massacre everyone...

[Nyx]

Vampires all the way...now this may have something to do with my obsession with the Twilight series;)

[Zaphkiel]

You're all wrong, demon hunters are #1. Like Sango from Inuyasha, she's the best demon slayer!

[Rafael Domination]

You have got to be joking me ZAPH! :D

Angels are beings backed up by the Most High Himself! They're invulnerable, invincible, and nothing can block their attacks. I'm talking about the real ones here...

YAYAYAYAYAYYAY! :D

[Andy]

You're all wrong, demon hunters are #1. Like Sango from Inuyasha, she's the best demon slayer!
Wow, I'm actually in the middle of watching that series. 2 episodes per day. :P And I just got to the one with her, like #26 or something.

[Zaphkiel]

Yeah, its around 26, Andy. I know angels are very powerful raff, but you barely see the on any animes.

[Rafael Domination]

I know *sigh*

And the only one worth mentioning was that Angel Sanctuary manga, which, actually got everything wrong. I mean, demons giving heaven a hard time? Please...that stuff only happens in manga...

[Andy]

Who's the wise guy that voted llamas? :D

[Rafael Domination]

I'm just surprised gnomes even wound up on this list... :D

[Andy]

Gnomes are the unfortunate fantasy creature which shows up in fewer works than it deserves. Their mechanical abilities are something not too many fantasy writers take advantage of. :(

Blizzard gave them the chance they've been waiting for! :D

[Zaphkiel]

Trust me, that Llama thing was definetly not me.

[Andy]

Well, George suggested them. Yet he says he voted pirates. And Shaun suggested talking animals...

[Shaun]

I chose zombies because they are the only things that still scare me these days.

[Rafael Domination]

Ayaya! :D

Zombies scare you? And yet, you don't fear vampires: the quick, sentient, predatory monsters versus slow, stupid corpses?

Wow.

[Andy]

Then whoever it was, they didn't post in this thread. :lookout:

[Zaphkiel]

That's right Andy!! Use your ultimate Ninja sense and find the perpetrator with the Sharingan!! BTW, I made a screen play in dedication to the Ninja Day that just passed.

[Shaun]

Haha, you should post your screenplay :D

[Zaphkiel]

I did!!

[Andy]

That's right Andy!! Use your ultimate Ninja sense and find the perpetrator with the Sharingan!! BTW, I made a screen play in dedication to the Ninja Day that just passed.
I saw that! I'll critique it this weekend!

[Nyx]

Ayaya! :D

Zombies scare you? And yet, you don't fear vampires: the quick, sentient, predatory monsters versus slow, stupid corpses?

Wow.

Just to point this out: Vampires are not all monsters, some don't even drink human blood...ok so maybe I'm too obsessed with the Twilight
books :rolleyes:

[Rafael Domination]

Ahaha! No worries, Nyx...I used to obsess about Power Rangers too...now, they give me nightmares...:D

[Nyx]

Ahaha! No worries, Nyx...I used to obsess about Power Rangers too...now, they give me nightmares...:D

Uh..Power Rangers? That was kinda irrelevant ;)

[Rafael Domination]

No...I mean, I kinda defended them the way you defended the vampires...

[Nyx]

:)Oh, I see.

[Ichigo]

This should be multiple choice...arg....

[Andy]

This should be multiple choice...arg....
That actually sounds like a good idea. Should we do that?

[Imelda]

Elves. :D They're so pretty and magical. But archers come in second, followed by pirates. So an elven pirate archer would be cool ...

[Shaun]

The interesting thing about that choice is that Elves tend to be archers, so you killed two birds with one stone there.

[Rafael Domination]

Angels and Elves...

it's popularity that wins here...not raw strength...*sigh*

[Imelda]

Well if it's strength, then I vote dragons ...

[Rafael Domination]

Dragons, shmagons. Fire doesn't even tickle angels...or wizards, or those big Gundam-seed style robots with a melting point of 21,000+ degress celcius....:D

[Carraka]

I voted llamas, which are protected by random probability. And me. And it looks like 11% of the people on this site agree with me! XD

[Andy]

Ichigo suggested we should remake this poll and let people choose multiple answers? It's so big, I also think that would be a good idea. Should we?

[Shaun]

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea!

[Andy]

Okay, a new poll's been put up. The old answers are gone, but you can select as many as you want now!

[Rafael Domination]

Why are llama's tied in first place with Necromancers and Angels?

[Nyx]

I voted for them ...:D

[Rafael Domination]

Wow, Nyx...:D

[Nyx]

What's that supposed to mean? I am allowed to express my love for llamas:rolleyes:

[Rafael Domination]

But its a showdown. If they charge into battle, even the gnomes would run them into the ground...:rolleyes:

[Nyx]

Ok Raffy I'm warning you, you will never crush my fantasy about llama super powers like that again:P

[Shaun]

Llamas = Monty Python and the Holy Grail. If you don't know what I'm talking about, watch the movie and appreciate its brilliance. It is the great fantasy parody/British comedy to grace the American scene.

To give you an idea of the brilliance...always remember that rabbits are evil...

[Andy]

Oh, rabbits...they're dynamite! :D

[Rafael Domination]

Llamas...only...spit

(yes, I went there, Nyx :D)

[Carraka]

Well ... Llamas are now in the lead. xD

[Rafael Domination]

CAAAAARRRR! You did that on purpose :D

[Andy]

Llamas are winning? Our world is doomed. At least the people here have a sense of humor. :D

[Carraka]

Um, of course I did!

... did what on purpose now?

[Nyx]

Llamas...only...spit

(yes, I went there, Nyx :D)

I'm not even gonna bother saying how offended I am right now. Their: spit is more powerful than any... but let's not go there:rolleyes:

[Rafael Domination]

Llama spit? Instant dandruff shampoo...(:D)

[Nyx]

Llama spit? Instant dandruff shampoo...(:D)

Don't be silly, we all know that Llama spit can only be used as a gentle conditioner:P

[Rafael Domination]

Fine, fine, I apologise :rolleyes:

And to prove how sorry I am, I'll french kiss a llama just for you. You forgive me now?

[Carraka]

As long as you send us a picture.

...

...oh, the images.

[Nyx]

As long as you send us a picture.

...

...oh, the images.

Yep I'm fine with it too as long as the pictures are posted up ASAP!

[Rafael Domination]

You sure that's wise? It'll be Rated-R, and I don't think the admins want that on the site :rolleyes:

[Nyx]

I'm sure Shaun and Andy would be too busy laughing to bother banning you for showing such pictures:P

[Rafael Domination]

Neeuuooooooooo! PLease don't make me prove it? Can you just trust me to do it?

[Nyx]

There's no point of you french kissing a Llama if I do not get to see the photos.

[Carraka]

Trust you? TRUST YOU?

Are you insulting our intelligence or something?

... I just French kissed a llama. What, don't believe me? Check out these pictures that I didn't take!

[Rafael Domination]

sigh...get me a llama first...

[jordanisonfire]

Werewolves, even though I'm the only voter! :D

[Nyx]

Llamas are still in the lead:D

[Andy]

Llamas are still in the lead:D
I should never had added that option to the poll. :P

[Nyx]

Another llama hater:O

[Andy]

Actually, Nyx, I voted for llamas, and am now regretting the move. It's not funny anymore, it's...actually extremely funny in fact, but sad. :D

[Rafael Domination]

Sigh...oh well...All good admins make mistakes. Now then, I believe you are wiser now...

*Thankfully, I can go scot free now...*

[Nyx]

Do not regret it Andy. The llamas and I are very proud of you.

As for you Raffy, a llama is being shipped to you at this moment and I'll be awaiting the french kissing photos:P

[Rafael Domination]

Nooooo :surprise:

Wait...you don't even know where I live...I guess I'm safe for the moment....

(Andy! Save me!)

Edit: is it just me, or is there no smiley for surprise...?

[Nyx]

But the llama powers will lead me to your house MUAHAHAHA :rolleyes:

Anyhow, for the surprised smiley, this :O and :eek: fit but I guess there's no specific one for it

[Rafael Domination]

Nooohohohooooo!:eek:

(Andy...Shaun...do something!)

[Nyx]

Nice use of the :eek: smiley! And calm down Raffy, I do not actually have llama powers that will lead me to your house.:rolleyes:

However the llamas that are waiting for the kiss do have such powers, so goodluck getting rid of them:P

[Rafael Domination]

Maybe they'll turn into a couple of hot girls (I wish...)

[Nyx]

Haha, well they could be part girl part llama -shivers-

Or maybe they'll be good looking llamas.

[Rafael Domination]

No, heck no...

You just ruined my llama princess fantasy. The one where I set them free from their curse and they, y'know...

What am I talking about?

Go, angels, GO!!!

[Nyx]

MUAHAHAHA the llamas almost had you there. Who knows maybe your llama fantasy will come true one day:rolleyes:

[GeorgeMichael]

Llamas are winning!!! Yay, and Pirates are only one point behind... and so are ninjas...

[Carraka]

... Llama princess fantasy.

Why am I on this forum again?

AAAAH THE IMAGES!! AAAAGH!!!

I vote we close the poll now, while the llamas are ahead.

[Nyx]

I second that motion:D

[GeorgeMichael]

Aye!!! :P

[Rafael Domination]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[GeorgeMichael]

:pirate: *shoots Rafael* :pirate: Welcome to the Caribbean mate :)

[Andy]

... Llama princess fantasy.

I vote we close the poll now, while the llamas are ahead.
We're not closing any of the polls in this forum, so future members can all vote.

How about instead we give the llamas their own smiley?

And, um, "llama princess fantasy"?? :confused:

[GeorgeMichael]

LLamas get a smiley! That's like the coolest thing I've ever heard of :)

[Carraka]

:pirate: *shoots Rafael* :pirate: Welcome to the Caribbean mate :)

I've suddenly remembered why I'm here.


Yes, a llama smilie!

... THREE LLAMA SMILIES!!!

There must be a llama appreciation day somewhere.

And talk to Raff is you want to know about the fantasy. I know nothing.

Edit: http://llamaday.tripod.com/index.html

It was yesterday! Aaah!

[Nyx]

Llama smiles:D That's awesome.

[GeorgeMichael]

We missed it??? :(

[Carraka]

BY ONE DAY!!!

Life isn't fair.

[Andy]

:llama: How's that?

Llama Day, huh? That's an insane coincidence.

[Nyx]

:llama:

Llama day should be added to the YWO calendar and celebrated next year:D

[Andy]

Well, I'll add it to the calendar, but I'm not sure about throwing a celebration. :)

[GeorgeMichael]

:llama::llama::llama: Yes it's good :) :llama:


That was really fast Andy, nice job :)

[Nyx]

Well, I'll add it to the calendar, but I'm not sure about throwing a celebration. :)

-sigh- Are you saying there won't be a llama layout?:(

[Andy]

-sigh- Are you saying there won't be a llama layout?:(
I have no idea. We could, if enough people want one. *Sigh* As though Ninja Day wasn't insane enough. :D

[Nyx]

yes you're right :llama: day will be even more insane:D All the more reason to have fun with it though!

[Carraka]

Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout!Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout! Llama layout!

There's 32 supporters right there. I can find more though.

[Rafael Domination]

NOOOOOO!

that would be too much llamas, and unless they can turn into cute girls, don't do it :eek: :eek:

*lama smileys...killing me...*

I'd rather have the pirates win...:D

[Nyx]

I am tempted to say something like : "Shun the non-believer!"-:llama:

[Rafael Domination]

Whatever...I guess I'll just stare at your avatar whenever I see a llama from now on...

[Nyx]

Enjoy the pretty anime girl while she lasts because I'm thinking of making a half-girl half-llama avator and putting it up soon:D

[Rafael Domination]

Don't. You. Dare....:D

I beg of you...

[Nyx]

I might keep her up if you french kiss the llama:cool:

[Rafael Domination]

What was that Andy? We're spamming? Oh, I'm sorry...now, If you'd just delete all our spammy posts, including the one where I made that promise...

*you just had to go there, did you, Nyx?*

[Nyx]

Ok then, like I said, enjoy the anime girl while she lasts:P and now:

-end of spam-

[Andy]

What was that Andy? We're spamming? Oh, I'm sorry...now, If you'd just delete all our spammy posts, including the one where I made that promise...

*you just had to go there, did you, Nyx?*
Members moderating themselves? :O Wow, that makes my day. :D

An in case anyone starts wondering, we will NOT do a 3-way poll between pirates, ninjas, and llamas. But what do you say to making llamas the "silly answer" in some future polls?

[Rafael Domination]

Please...

No...more...llamas! :cry:

What? There's a smiley for llamas but not one for tears!

*bawls*

[Nyx]

Raffy, llamas are much more important than tears:P

Ok so there's no ninja vs. pirate vs. llama poll but how about a llama vs. angels poll? Just to make Raffy that much more happy when llamas win:D

[Rafael Domination]

Still trying to torture me, I see...

Even after the great and mighty Andy put stop to all this madness - he did! he did! I know he did - you continue to deny the spitiness of llamas...

*sigh...*

[Andy]

We've had enough versus polls for now. Maybe in a year. :P

[Nyx]

Ok but I'm going to hold you to that Andy, so next year when I suggest that poll again,...:P

[jordanisonfire]

You should have put Druids, Andrew. In my story, the Druids rock. :D

[Eve]

It's ninjas, knights and elves for me.

[Andy]

Lllamas are losing to ninjas, and are now tied with angels! We're saved!

[Carraka]

THAT'S IT!

I quit!

-quits YWO-

[Nyx]

What!?! Who voted for angels? -glares-

[Carraka]

I think we should blame Guessed.

I asked her to vote for llamas, and she agreed.

THEN SHE VOTED FOR EVERYTHING!!

There shall be retribution.

But of course, we should also destroy Eve and Rafael and angel-voter and everyone else.

[Andy]

Not only are llamas not in first, but ninjas are winning! It's like the poll's jumped out of the fire and into the box of awesomeness. *Prepares to protect self*

[Nyx]

THAT"S IT! I CAN"T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!! -hits head against keyboard-

[Carraka]

Fear not, Andy. I shall never destroy you for such a statement. (I know where you go to college, though. And we live in the same time zone.)

Oh, look! A sharp and shiny knife right here on the table next to me!

-glare-

I have confidence that llamas shall prevail. Confidence in sunshine. And rain. And spring will come again.

-hits head on Nyx's keyboard-

My keyboards should stay clean.

[Shaun]

Why is this such a big deal? :P:P:P
Llamas are still cool, even if they lose :P

[Eve]

Welcome to News Broadcast, it looks like the ninjas are winning. Oh, will you look at them, cheering and vanishing into thin air at the same time. In second place, we have the vampires, elves, llamas and angels. Crowded lot, huh? Next, we have in third place the dragons. Will you please stop burping fire at the audience, Mr. Dragon? Thank you for staying with us in News Broadcast.

[GeorgeMichael]

And now the pirates :pirate: are complaining since they weren't mentioned in the third place categories...

[Eve]

Ah! But they have no right to complain because they were convicted of stealing presents from Santa's sleigh

[GeorgeMichael]

They understand your argument but say that they needed the presents for their children because Santa doesn't love Pirates.

[Eve]

Hmm..... are you *Looks suspicious* in contact with pirates?

[GeorgeMichael]

What? *cough* oh, um of course not. *Not now, go away guys* THis is all just from speculation :)

[Eve]

Ah. *Still looks suspicious*

[GeorgeMichael]

*walks away slwoly* I have to go... I hear my dog calling me...

[Eve]

Right... your dog. What did he say, "Hey, owner! Come down here right away or I'll bite you! I'm hungry! Where's dinner?"

[Imelda]

Not only are llamas not in first, but ninjas are winning! It's like the poll's jumped out of the fire and into the box of awesomeness. *Prepares to protect self*

*Pulls out cutlass*

Arr! Ye'll regret tha' statement, Mr Kay! Prepare to swash your buckle ... and lose! Arrharrharrharr!

[jordanisonfire]

*Tries to think of ninja talk*
*Realises ninjas don't have any*

Um... pirates suck! The poll proves it. :D *Wise Nod*

[Imelda]

The fact that you couldn't think of ninja talk, matey shows how much ninjas suck. :)

[Shaun]

Umm, ninjas have talk, but if I put it up nobody would even understand it, so it would sound like gibberish.
Pirates just talk like degenerates :P

[jordanisonfire]

Ninja have Japanese talk, so that kicks pirate "talk" out of the picture. :P

[Imelda]

Ninjas have Japanese, a language spoken by ... ooh, all of Japan.

Arr, ye pirate language is full of blood-curdlin' slang, ye landlubbers! If ye be skilled in the execution of said talk, ye can conjure up digustin' images, yar!

And they say 'yar' a lot.

[Shaun]

Ninjas have terms too: http://www.angelfire.com/empire/ninjaclan/terms.html

[Andy]

Ninjas have Japanese, a language spoken by ... ooh, all of Japan.

Arr, ye pirate language is full of blood-curdlin' slang, ye landlubbers! If ye be skilled in the execution of said talk, ye can conjure up digustin' images, yar!

And they say 'yar' a lot.
So, you so-called "Grammar Goddess" has double standards, eh? Are you also suggesting poor grammar is a good thing? Ninjas hardly speak - they show, don't tell.

Oh, that felt so good! :D

[Imelda]

...

It's pirate grammar, it's fine. :D

And besides, that was perfectly grammatically correct, it just uses archaic language, so I don't know what you're getting at. :(

[Andy]

And besides, that was perfectly grammatically correct, it just uses archaic language, so I don't know what you're getting at. :(

digustin'
Lies! "digustin'" is not archaic! And you use sad smileys way too much. :P

[Rafael Domination]

This thread is still alive? :D

[Imelda]

It's dialect, Andrew. :rolleyes: It's still grammatically correct, and the usage of the ' shows that the word is simply contracted. :)

[Nyx]

-sigh- Llamas loosing...what has YWO become?:(

One day llamas will rule the world and you'll all be sorry...

[jordanisonfire]

Face it, Imelda, ninjas kick pirate ass.

[Rafael Domination]

ninjas are winning?

NINJAS ARE WINNING! :D :D :D :D :D!!!!!!!

Quick, someone close the poll while my species are still ahead! :D

[Imelda]

Ninjas aren't a species.

And Shadow, until I support ninjas, they will never kick ass. :pirate:

[Nyx]

I thought you were cheering for angels Raffy?

[jordanisonfire]

The ninjas should have another vote, because, in my stupidity, I didn't realise the poll was multiple choice and voted just for werewolves. :D

[Shaun]

Doesn't the fact that you're my girlfriend Imelda, and I support ninjas, add any weight to this? I mean, some of your 'greatness' has to roll over right?

[Andy]

Oh my goodness, you and Imelda can take any thread and turn it into a conversation with each other. XDXDXD

[Imelda]

No it doesn't roll over, Shaun. I'm going to convert you to pirates somehow. I have my ways. It may involve a cutlass, a plank, and a hat.

And Andrew, he starts it ... Yell at him.

[jordanisonfire]

I've decided all White people suck because they worship the Status Quo. End statement.

[Imelda]

I don't even like Status Quo, let alone worship them!

[jordanisonfire]

Well, then, you must have lied on the test. :flex:

[Imelda]

Ohhhh, THOSE 'white' people. XD I thought you meant caucasians. :rolleyes:

[jordanisonfire]

Silly.

[DreamChaser]

Vampires and werewolves are the best! (Twilight seiries) but elves and dragons are awesomeness too (Inheritance sieries)btw Inheritance was a trilogy but I saw a post from the author saying that he was gonna continue the sieries!!! YAY!!!

[Simmi]

I liked most of them, like the commonly used fantasy characters. Vampires, elves, werewolves that type of stuff. OH and of course dragons! I've loved dragons since 4th grade... and if you don't believe in them... you will after talking to me XD

[BittenxApple]

I voted for vampire...which has nothing to do with my love for Twilight :P

[Bowie20049]

Robot Angels

[Clawfire]

Beastmasters, Demons, Dragons, Dwarves, Elves, Necromancers, Rangers, Secret Agents, Skeletons, Vampires, Werewolves and Wizards are good for me!

[FayGee]

Beastmasters, Demons, Dragons, Dwarves, Elves, Necromancers, Rangers, Secret Agents, Skeletons, Vampires, Werewolves and Wizards are good for me!

:P to Clawfire!
Go angels! :angel:

[Quirky]

Ninjas and necromancers are epic ;)
And whenever anyone asks me if I like vampires or werewolves better, I always say "Wizards own all!" and walk away leaving them confused :D

[wutheringheights]

Vampires all the way...now this may have something to do with my obsession with the Twilight series;)

Thank you! Someone finally gets me! I voted for angels and demons too. Inuyasha is my favorite anime series ever, and Inuyasha is my favorite character.
