Yufster Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Don't mention anything about anything I have ever said before this point in time, because I'll cut your goddamn tounges out and feed them to wild dogs. D'ya got that?! I deleted the Jonothy Zellers thread. We will speak no more about it. Now, here's my proposal. TIM SCHAFER v s RON GILBERT In the ultimate showdown!!!! Tonight!!! Who do you love more?
ptdc Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 I have no opinion on Tim one way or the other but Ron is a big meanie.
Huz Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Ron isn't compelling me to hand over money to Microsoft. It's a tough decision.
Ernil Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 The unknowleged (me) picks Ron. Why? Every thing he's done, and the genious things he creates. I have yet to dislike a LucasArts Ron Gilbert game.
Yufster Posted September 16, 2003 Author Posted September 16, 2003 I don't see you point. How does that make Ron better than Tim Schafer. Let's see.... RON GILBERT Manian Mansion MI 1 and 2 TIM SCHAFER DOTT (I know it was a sequal to MM but ron had nothing to do with it) Full Throttle Grim Fangango PHYSCHONAUTSSSSSSSS!!! Did I just spell that wrong? DAVE GROSSMAN: DOTT, uhhhhhh Poetry Hey, lets throw in Dave Grossman too! I love a good fight. No, I cannot lie, I love them all.
C Shutt Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 You forgot MI 1 and 2 from Schafer's list. Schafer wins. He's still making great games, whereas Gilbert has done nothing of note since Monkey Island 2.
Joshi Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Gilbert has created games for likcle children. BURN HIM! No, really, Tim is god, he even took some time out of his busy schedual to come down here and talk about the death of the scumm bar. Then it came back making his post worthless, but hell, it was still real nice of him. Gilbert creates two games and then leave people in the dark about the ending. Nuff said. Ooh, wait, Dave grossmans in this. well, he may not be able to beat Tom Schafer, but he can use witty poems to blow gilbertr out of the water. And just for his defence. dave grossmans resume
Gabez Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Tim, definitely. But Dave also wins cool-points for his poetry.
Joshi Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Does anyone here actually get his peotry of the week from phrenopolis? I do, and I'm all the more better for it.
Yufster Posted September 16, 2003 Author Posted September 16, 2003 In rons defence, he's never told me to have somebodies babies.
Joshi Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 In Daves defense, he never told me to do that.
Yufster Posted September 16, 2003 Author Posted September 16, 2003 ...Apparently, neither did anybody else. I don't know. Imagine how frustrating it must be for Ron, when he owns his own company and produces successful kids games like Putt Putt and... Pajama Sam... and all people ever ask him is, "What's the secret of monkey island!?" Whereas if Tim was in a chat, people would be more like, "Blah blah blah Grim Fandango" or "Blah blah blah Psychonauts" or "Blah blah blah employ me". Maybe it's us being narrow minded, that is DRIVING RON AWAY?
ptdc Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I wonder what the secret of Ron Gilbert is...
Jayel Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I like Ron because I know how to pronounce his name
Joshi Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 @Yufster: yeah, but when we asked Tim Schafer what Bens second name was, he told us. When we ask Ron Gilbert what the secret of Monkey Island is, he never tells us. If he told us, we'd stop badgering him. Originally posted by PTDC I wonder what the secret of Ron Gilbert is... That his son is really his daughters brother! Oh, and Jayel Name: Tim Schafer Phonetically: Tim Shaffer Name: Dave Grossman Phonetically: Dave Grossman... um... yeah.
Yufster Posted September 17, 2003 Author Posted September 17, 2003 *kicks neil* FO-NET-IK-AL-E!!!! Or... -Y!!! Wow, Phonetical stuff is HARD! TIM SCHAY-FUR At least.... I think so. Don't go quoting me on that. Don't, when you lose your position in Double Fine for getting the boss' name wrong, say, "BUT YUFSTER SAID..." It could be Skiffir, for all I know. I'm going to delete this, because I read through the Ron interviews again and... he's sweet, really. Besides, him and Tim still see each other apparently, and Tim couldn't POSSIBLY like an asshole. Besides, it's wrong for me to judge a person I've never even met. Unless it's in a good way. So all three rock. Although I've special little places in my heart for Dave (Because he's a sweety) and Tim (Because he's a manatee)
Feral Posted September 18, 2003 Posted September 18, 2003 Tim, all the way. His track record says it all.
Yufster Posted September 18, 2003 Author Posted September 18, 2003 Yeah, he IS the best, isn't he? Okay, well this thread has outstayed its welcome. I'm going to go and complain in the feedback centre about stuff. Some stuff. I'll probably think of stuff while I'm over there.
