[edit] Let's plot a course to the front page
/me shuffles papers around Okay, looking at my idea box, I've collected lots of ideas over the months. I've just started to see your stuff (like unbooks:the judge is making me write this), and I don't know what your style is... Maybe you could finish User:Cajek/Museum of Misery? Really just an article meant to shock people. No collab, it's all yours if you want.
How do I get my ideas... how do I get my ideas... I write down funny lines in my own quotebox: User:Cajek/faves, I've gotten some good gags out of that. I suggest writing down ANY line you think is funny.
Also, randomly read featured articles just for fun not to get ideas for a feature. Also, vote on VFH (but never vote against, hint from a guy who has a bunch of features: it makes people want to vote against on your stuff). Read the articles up for VFH and see what makes something featureable and what doesn't...
let's see... I also suggest exercising your writing muscles as much as possible. Even if you feel like you can't write any more, just write.
If I think of anything else, RMS, I'll call. I'd like to see if you could do my museum of misery thing, but it's up to you. Alright man, see ya 'round!
my sig has a link to a random featured article. Check it out!
[edit] UnBooks:The Squirrel Grenade
Good piece, but you need some formatting and maybe some more pictures. I've removed the ICU tag and put a fix one instead, so you'll have a month to work on it. Good luck. ~ 07:52, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Response to your questions
Well, first off I would like to thank you for nominating me for the Foolitzer Prize. Honestly, to begin with, I found funny articles and tried to make them funnier, but now I scour google news for articles I can manipulate, take for example, the chess piece one, It was originally "Right Wing Christians oppose the creation of Female Bishops", and I though what I could replace Right Wing Christians with, and Chess Piece makers came to mind, because of the chess piece "Bishop"
Some articles, the pictures inspire me, For the one with George Bush and the Prime minister of Japan, I saw the picture and thought, "They are making a secret handshake" and thus, the article was born. However for some articles, I don't actually find news stories to base them on, in my Cartoon Characters are to blame for oil prices, I had wanted to do an article about oil prices and 1983 donkey kong, and I finally got around to making an article for it. Same goes for the Giambi's Mustache one, It just needed to be done. And also I try to make myself do 4 per week, so some I just do to get them in, thus, the guitar hero 4 one was made.
As for the "In the News" part, I know what the template they use is, so I add some of my favorite works to it when I make them, and some of them get added when someone who reads the article really liked it, so they put them up. If you are interested, it is Template:RecentUnNews. ----Mgr. Sir Sonic80☭ 22:09, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
Why thank you, Sonic. ~ 23:49, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
- GRR EDIT CONFLICT! :-) Oh hey, Sonic. How come you're not in the CMC? If you were you could stand for the UnNews seat of Jocke Pirat's Uncyclopedian Senate with the CMC party. Hello again, RMS! - [22:16 10 July] Sir FSt Don
Yettie
[edit] Hey there
Alright RMS, let me start by saying this. I think you have a good history ahead of you at Uncyc, as long as you can be sure to take criticism with a grain of salt, and earn the things you'd like to get. For me, getting stuff because you earned it, is a lot more satisfying that just getting stuff. Perhaps I was wrong with the "it isn't about the awards" idea, but here is what is true. If it is about the awards, it's about getting them for things you've done well. Not about just getting them without meaning.
Now, that said, I've just gotten done looking over all your UnNewses. First I'd like to say, you have a lot of brilliant ideas. I don't exaggerate when I say "brilliant," I mean a lot of them are really the epitome of originality, such as the guy suing the sun, the duck drowning, the Hardy Boys one, and some others. I really loved the "black gold" one personally. I thought that was just a brilliant idea. Like I said, brilliant. You've got some magnificent ideas. The only problem I see with most of them is that they're not all that fully developed. And by that, I mean that there's a lot of room for more jokes. The ideas are good in and of themselves, but I think you could have some truly hilarious material here if you built on the initial jokes and added some more jokes to your articles. To be perfectly honest, if some of these were a bit more well built, I would be nominating a lot of them for feature, because I think you've got a perfect idea of what UnNews is all about, and I think, from seeing your ideas, that you have enormous potential as a writer and a humorist. You just need to develop your articles a little more is all. I'd be willing to help out with that if you'd be so inclined to ask for it, though I know you've already asked Sonic and Cajek, and probably some others for inspiration. And that's what this site is about too. There are a lot of good writers here. I was an absolutely shitty writer when I got here, and now I'm a lot better, completely because I talked to and took tips from all the great writers on this site. So by all means, keep doing that, asking for advice and all, and like I said, feel free to ask me any time for help. I'm willing to put aside the past to make way for one of our best future UnNews writers. -RAHB 02:08, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
- Oh also I left you some responses on my talk page to your other questions. Wasn't sure if you'd seen those yet, but those were before I'd got to this page. Cheers. -RAHB 02:54, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

It's The Poo Lit. Surprised?
Uncyclopedia's twice annual writing competition, the Poo Lit Surprise starts this week. In typical Uncyclopedia style, it seems to have come as a surprise to many, not least EMC, who was supposed to be running it, but who has disappeared without trace. Horrified by what was happening to their beloved and prestigious competition, the Uncyclopedia community rushed into action as soon as it noticed (a day or so late), and promptly agreed someone needed to do something. This was followed by some of the community running around in small circles, flapping their hands wildly and panicking a bit, before cuddly authority figure Zombiebaron decisively stepped in and selflessly told Dr. Skullthumper to sort it out and get the fuck on with it. At the time of going to press, both Skullthumper and Zombiebaron may have been available for comment for all we know, but we couldn't be bothered to ask them. VFS: The Race Hots Up For The Second Month Running
In an unprecedented turn of events, and due to namby-pamby unclear rules that have since been firmed up and given a healthy gay colour makeover, Uncyclopedia is voting for further candidates to be admitted to the non-existent cabal. The race is turning out to be quite a close one between several of the frontrunners, so the ever-impartial UnSignpost (founded by Cajek and Dr. Skullthumper) brings you pen pics of the current favourites.
Who will win? All may be reported in future editions of the UnSignpost. If we remember. And if we can be bothered. |

Count to a million This week Uncyclopedians continued on their quixotic attempt to "count to a million." Started by Uncyclopedia Wiki-master and Chamber of Commerce Secretary Spang in early March of this year, the project seeks to eventually reach the number one million (1,000,000) through the ancient art of counting. Any person who is capable of taking a number, adding one to it, and expressing the result has been invited to join the massive undertaking, which has seen dozens of contributors come and go. As is always the case here at Uncyc, the project has spawned controversy, criticism, and a spin-off starring Tony Shalhoub as Olipro. The forum is an unprecedented pool of knowledge. As each number is reached, it is discussed in-depth by several Uncyclopedians. Insights such as "114 That's my age + 100 lololol" and "616 fucks fucking fucker's shitty crap" are a testament to the intellecually stimulating conversation that occurs each day. Oftentimes, relevant images are posted; the variety of these pictures can be seen by looking here, here, here, and here. However, not everyone is so optimistic about the project. Some have expressed concern that the entire thing has some kind of sinister purpose. When asked for a comment on the harmless-appearing but diabolically-undertoned project, TheLedBalloon said, "although the project appears harmless, there are definitely diabolical undertones." Another anonymous user stated, "that forum is most surely not pants." Spang himself has expressed his desire to leave behind a legacy, but he has also left open the possibility that "the entire thing is just an urban myth, and doesn't really exist." Regardless of its true meaning or intentions, Uncyclopedians continue to trudge on in their epic quest, reaching 0.075% of their goal this Monday. Editors come and go, the pace quickens and slackens, but someone is always there to figure out the next number in the sequence. At its current rate, the project will reach one million on August 19th, 2526. Until that glorious day, Uncyclopedians can only dream... Cheevers Fires Back! After some light-hearted slights in last week's issue, Gerry Cheevers - Uncyclopedia's resident headcase and #2 hockey authority - has taken exception with the editors of this fine periodical. An ugly scene erupted in the USP press room after Gerry barged in, demanding some sort of justice. Luckily, some quick thinking by our tea-boy and current stand-in editor caused Mr. Cheevers to be distracted by a shiny object long enough to avoid any damage to our delicate newspapering equipment. After it was pointed out that he had in fact come and gone from Uncyclopedia like some sort of cow that grazes on witty satire and coherent parody, Gerry calmed down enough give a brief interview and let some of our junior reporters scratch him behind the ears. When asked about the reasons for his return, Gerry cited many things. Prominent among them were a desire to have humor play a larger role in his life once again, the thrill of writing articles, the subsequent crushing defeat after said articles have been hacked to pieces mercilessly, and his heterosexual man-crush on Mhaille. The one-time WotM nominee fell on hard times in mid-March, and went on sabbatical when his computer decided that it was not long for this world and took its own life. After that, Gerry resorted to breaking into libraries after-hours to cast VFH votes on city-owned, porn-riddled, abysmally slow dial-up computers. Luckily he landed a job in late May and has spent a majority of his time at said job slacking off and editing Uncyclopedia. Mr. Cheevers looks forward to getting back to what he is known for: mediocre writing, scathing Pee Reviews, and keeping Manforman locked up in the Uncyc dungeons. Several prominent Uncyclopedians share his optimism for a permanent return, including noted reviewing robot MrN9000, who stated that he was "willing to bet everything Cajek owns to that effect," and heavy zeppelin Don Leddy, who expressed his delight at seeing Gerry, exclaiming "gimme back my twenty dollars!" |

- Uncyclopedia is the worst? Not sure I have edited that except for a revert on some vandalism, I'm not really sure what you are talking about... It's usually not a good idea to have links to Uncyc users in articles though. MrN

- Duck
SEE?
- Yea, I had a look... I don't use sigexpand myself, so I'm not sure what is going on. If you have an older sig which did not have this problem maybe you could compare the differences. You could also try building it up from a more simple format, and finding out where it is going wrong. If you want to ask an admin, Spang is probably the best with this kinda stuff... MrN

[edit] VFP
Alright, maybe because I let the first one slide, you didn't get the point. However, this second transgression seems to highlight the fact that you are — shall we say — "a bit confused on the subject". Please do not nominate unoriginal images for VFP. By "unoriginal", I mean that signifigant photomanipulation, or signifigant photo creation must have been undertaken by the person or persons who uploaded an image to Uncyclopedia. Thus, if you go out into your backyard and photograph two squirrles dressed like Roman centurians battleing to the death that's fine. If you find a photograph on the internet of two squirrles, and you use Photoshop or GIMP or whatever to add Roman centurian outfits to the squirrles, that's also fine. But, if you google "Rome centurian squirrles", take the first image you find, crop it, and use the blur tool to correct a minor mistake that the original author made, that is not an original image. Also, when nominating images by others, it is always a good idea to google at least the image's name, and to check the date on any results that you find (if a date is present).
I do, however, appreciate the sentiment of you nominating images, because there are few images currently nominated on VFP. If you could just check for unoriginality before nominating, everything would be fine. Keep up the nominating, -- Major Sir Zombiebaron GUN • WotM • UotM • PotM • AotM • EGAEDM • UPotM • MAFE • ZotM • IotM • VotM • UGotM (shout) 11:03, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Unorder
To join the UnOrder, one must take a journey of 10,000 steps, or however far away the computer is, and enter their name into an open position. If you want an award, give one to yourself, but only one, because combined, the awards wield the Ultimate Power over small mammals including, but not limited to, the domestic feline, the rat, and the wombat.
If you want any special stuff to go along with your membership, or just want to assign yourself meaninglessfull roles or powers, do so immediately, but with great caution, for potatoes do have eyes you know...
Consider yourself spudded.

The biggest little whorehouse on the internet Oftentimes, Uncyclopedians choose to create something on their userpages, safe from the prying eyes and hungry 'delete' buttons of admins. These entities can range from the ridiculously complex to the awesomely cartoonish. The newest user creation on this silly wiki is that of a charming gentle-bot by the name of MrN9000. At 'The Whorehouse', writers can bathe in the attention they so desperately seek. A sort of hands-on Pee Review, the Whorehouse encourages other users to edit, trim, improve, rub up against, and generally increase the quality of the articles of others. Authors suffering from mental blocks (or physical blocks) can turn to this dimly lit establishment for inspiration. While considered a 'smashing' idea by some, the brothel has drawn its share of criticism. It may have even caused a site-wide questioning of the rules of VFH, guidelines of Pee Review, and the vailidity of the Committee That Selects Zombiebaron's Daily Banstick. The main concern seems to be articles getting 'mucked up' by having too many contributors. Opponents to this opinion have pointed out that this is a wiki, and, in theory, an infinite number of contributors contributing to an infinite number of articles for an infinite amount of time were eventually destined to create the Whorehouse, anyway. Some users, such as Ljlego, have taken advantage of the open space to hold some sort of charity-scamming orgy. Whatever the destiny of the Whorehouse, it is sure to catch every Uncyclopedian's attention for at the least five minutes immediately following the reading of this article.
Virus exposes user vulnerability to death Yes, it's true. Death is inevitable for all users who have logged in recently. Apparently, a rouge admin created a computer virus so potent you actually contract testicular cancer. Real cancer. Like, In real life. Seriously. And how does one contract the virus? Users are warned that that the simple act of logging in to Uncyclopedia will cause one to contract the fatal disease. "Yes, I know cancer isn't a disease nor a virus" said one doctor "but still, it sucks. I mean - it's cancer - IN YOUR BALLS. Come on." So how exactly does on know when they have cancer? Symptoms may include one or more of the following:
Make sure to constantly check your testicles by feeling them for irregularities with your fingers. ... That's right. ... Just feel 'em up ... nice ... Ahem! Uh... Simple vigilance is a big help. The best time to check is after a hot shower, when the scrotum is looser. And what of the female users? No, not even the three of them are safe. It has been proven that even female users can contract testicular cancer. How, you ask? Well, by a miracle of God, the female will grow testicles, that will then become "cancerfied" (or "cancer-ific", if you prefer.) The only users who are safe from this horrible plague are IP addresses, as they lack testes and the ability to grow any. Remember kids, no matter how much Dr. Health, Esq. tells you cancer is great, don't believe him. Oh? ... What's that? ... I said something about dying? ... Oh. ... Well, if one of your testicles was three times bigger than the other and your semen was filled with blood, would you not kill yourself? That's right... |

Telling You Stuff You Already Knew, But With Different Words!
August 7th, 2008 • Fourteenth Issue • Just like Grandma used to make!

Uncyclopedia Forum set to consume the Internet Top scientists at the Uncycloversity this week predicted that a Village Dump topic, started in June by prominent Uncylopedian and alchemist Spang, will one day consume the entire internet. According to the university's top expert, Dr. Skullthumper, Ph.D.: "This is one of those things that could go on forever. I mean, at least counting to a million has a definite ending. With this, there is no end, since everyone wants to be the last person to edit." Wikia staff member and Uncyclopedian Sannse predicts that the forum topic will take up all of Wikia's hardware by late 2009 and will then begin to "consume all around it, like I did that time I tried marijuana." She went on to add, "nothing will be safe – not even Wikipedia," before blessing herself and staring reverently at a statue of Jimmy Wales. Others, however, are more optimistic. According to Modusoperandi, "eventually someone will invent some sort of robot or hobgoblin to automatically edit the topic, and then it will have to be locked. Either that, or someone will figure out that there is no prize, rendering the whole thing pointless. And then I shall be the winner!" Spang was unavailable for comment because, according to his spokesperson, "he is busy in his cave dreaming up more crazy schemes to destroy the internet." Admins everywhere! If you're a wiki-troll, cyberbullying vandal or extremely crappy article, you'd better start watching your behind. Three new deputies were voted in by the Uncyclopedia Sheriff's Department: Dr. Skullthumper, RAHB, and Roman Dog Bird. The trio were bestowed this great honor last Friday by Codeine. This brings the total amount of active authority figures who could wallop you over the head with a banhammer to 29. The reason for the unusally high number of new sysops is that a clear consensus could not be reached, and also that all three of these individuals are "awesome". The new admins were extremely pleased and greatly honored by their new title. None of them wasted any time in executing their first sysop move (RAHB and Dr. Skullthumper banned Cajek; Roman Dog Bird deleted one hundred articles, then banned Cajek). The prescence of these new neighborhood patrollers was evident immediately, with QVFD being renamed "Skull and RAHB's House of Huffing", and placing {{VFD}} in an article now automatically classifying it as "Roman Dog Bird's bitch". The reactions from the new sysops were similar, with all three pledging to delete bad articles, ban unworthy knuckleheads, continue plans for world domination, and "try not to muck up the site too much". RAHB has set himself lofty goals, including "keeping it cool" and some wiki-related nonsense that this reporter didn't understand. Roman Dog Bird wished the readers of the Signpost to know that he said "something", and went on to add that he will continue to "clean crap up...only now with more power." Dr. Skullthumper is thankful that no one has caught on to the trio of new ops and expresses his optimism as far as not being immediately de-opped, but also listed several early accomplishments as well as future goals. With these three brave new souls now patrolling the corridors of this silly wiki, it is truly a dark time for terrible articles, merciless vandals, and Cajek. |
