Someonenonotyou is a great call for pirate I think. I used to have a pirate parrot in HALO but I really don't consider that to count.
Thanatos seems a no-brainer for a ninja nomination.
Rawhide for cowboy. No. Contest.

I'm going to be running for Cowboy ITP, based on my WW play style. Because no one comes out guns a'blazin' like I do when I know I've been caught or have information to use against the enemy. Like a reckless gunslinger, my points fire all over, and I have no regard for who I may hit with them!
Plus I did Oklahoma in Oklahoma and have cowboy boots. :smallbiggrin:

Meee! Ninja!
You ain't see me coming in my black ninja suit!
My deadly ninja cookie throwing stars.(Which are also multiple times poisened)
My knowledge of Krav Maga!
But isn't that from the Middle East or something?
Yes, but they don't know and its still a martial art, so shut up!
Y-Yes...Sirses...
As I said,
My knowledge of Krav Maga.
And that I probably simu-ninja'd a whole bunch of you already!
Sirses? You do know that you only know a throw or two, krav maga style?
Yes, but they don't know that either, so shut up again!
Alright..Alright sirses......
My dedication to cookies and milk is like a ninja's to his arts.(Which I also practise..)
So vote Dallas-Dakota for ninja itp!:smallcool:
But you lost that pair of sunglasses...
It's a smiley and you don't know when to shut up, do you?
I do sirses, right about now sirses....
Ahem, all small speech was for comedic goals which will most likely fail horribly. Ofcourse, nothing of it was true. No, I haven't lost my sun-glasses....

But, you came out with guns blazing in Poirot and HIT ME! Everyone knows that cowboys just randomly shoot around and never hit anything smaller than a barn. ((Yes, I am smaller than a barn.))
Freshmeat
2008-08-19, 10:58 AM
Vote Freshmeat for Cowboy in the Playground!
http://img378.imageshack.us/img378/9199/clinteastwoodvw2ceikaze4.gifhttp://img47.imageshack.us/img47/9710/revolverocelotsmallip2.png
I love all westerns, especially of the spaghetti western kind. They're the greatest form of entertainment ever made. I find it hilarious that it took the efforts of Italians to revive a genre that was dropping in popularity at the time and that they just hired cheap Spanish extras to look like Mexicans. Oh, and they have a tendency for dropping Indians and stereotypical Western clichés in lieu of Mexican standoffs, ridiculously-good shooting skills and hectic shootouts of all kinds. Awesomeness (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6HA89u1QpI).
Further reasons:
Western characters tend to be anti-heroic, selfish and opportunistic people, much like I am.
Of the small number of avatars I have, half are western-related, as shown above. If you think Revolver Ocelot doesn't count, you probably haven't played Metal Gear Solid or read his wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolver_Ocelot). I've used the Clint Eastwood one for ages on these boards.
I've been shipped as, you guessed it, a gunslinger.
Remember when I ran for Brown in the playground in ages past? Remember that poster I made? If not, here it is, in all its western-themed glory:
http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/8389/brownitpfw4.jpg
I'm pretty good at doing all sorts of gun tricks. I practiced a lot when I was a kid.
Whenever I'm asked to list my top 10 or 20 favorite movies, there are always at least three westerns on that list. Particularly The Good, The Bad & The Ugly is one of the greatest movies ever made.
On a related note, guess what my ringtone is. Come on, guess. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct6p0sP_KSk)
On an even more related note, guess as what character I participated in the RAF Idol Contest (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=79892)? And which theme I played?
I use a variety of utterly ridiculous (Mexican) western-related catchphrases in real life, including "'Ey Hombre, you are not welcome in Los Nachos." (great for breaking the ice!)
And here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4784669&postcount=522) are my answers to the questionnaire posted on page 18 of this thread.
And here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4802132&postcount=690) is a cowboy song Supagoof wrote for me.
So vote Freshmeat for Cowboy ITP!
Or my mule will feel offended! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADzFve-tKnU)

The compass points towards our dreams! Let's chase it! Gather up your foolish dreams and take the helm!
A pirate doesn't need a pirate avatar or 'pirate' in their username. A pirate chases their dreams! From one horizon to the other is what they aim for!
Towards an everlasting, boundless world, with overflowing passion in my heart, I will go anywhere!
Wealth, fame, power. I will acquire it all! The world is entering the Great Age of Pirates!!
ORE WA KAIZOKUOU NI NARU OTOKO DA!
I AM THE MAN WHO WILL BECOME THE PIRATE KING!!
Seek freedom and your world will stand stretched before your eyes. If the endless dream guides your spirits, conquer it!
BEAR CONVICTION BEHIND YOUR FLAG!

Eldritch Knight for Ninja in the Playground
Here's why I am a good candidate for Ninja in the playground:
- I have done a kung-fu dance number in front of 200 people while wearing a ninja mask.
- I have done a lot of research on the subject of ninjas.
- I have been dubbed 'The Scottish Ninja' 'The Poetic Ninja' and 'The Heritage Ninja' (Heritage being my college)
- I know 362 different ways to kill someone with a spatula. Don't ask about the plunger.
- I operate both in shadow and in the open. Ninjitsu is not an art of invisibliity, it is an art of subtlety, there is a huge difference.
- I have a knack for appearing at the exact moment someone mentions my name.
- I have an extremely strong sense of deontological ethics. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deontological_ethics)

A true pirate needs sense of Adventure. But what about the wenches and loot? I be having both me laddies! I be so full of the adventuring spirit that I created a game based on swindling and plundering and digging for GOLD!
*cough*http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=87160 *cough*
If that isn't solid proof of me pirateyness then I don't be knowin what is!
http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l49/thecheat2/Raiserisapirate.jpg
I am the master of lewt! I sail where the winds take me.
Pirates do what pirates be doing but at the same time any pirate worth his salt knows we follow a code. I be no expert but I know that "Player 0" some person follows no code. Chaotic that one be.
If'n you want to be some sort of Hippie pirate thing feel free to follow the pirate/hippie ungodly fusion of two clashing ideologies. If you want to fill your coffers with gold and then spend it on rum and wenches follow me across the high seas of adventuuure!
As for the bathtub:
Don't think of me as a pirate.
That says it all right there.
Drink up me hearties yo ho!

Ah, you must be under the mistaken impression that ninjae were invented in Japan. In truth, the Romans employed ninjae far earlier than the Japanese. The only reason no one has ever heard of these Roman ninjae is because they were actually good at what they did.

Yes, but Japanese Ninja were the first to use Ika no Hone as weapons, therefore, they're the real ones!
It means Squid Bones. :smalltongue:

2008-08-19, 12:53 PM
Ummm... Romans may have used assassins.... but I think that the term Ninja refers to japanese ones. Because nearly everybody did use assassins...
I'm going to run for Ninja in the Playground!!!
For a few reasons I'll be giving now, and some later... (my real speech thing will come later)
Firstly, I am (in real life) an expert theif. I can take my friend's cell phone out of his pocket, without him even discovering it's missing until the end of the day, when I give it back to him.
Secondly, I am a ninja in occupation, check the profile :smalltongue:
Thirdly, I love par cour. I haven't taken any real classes, but practice it whenever the opportunity comes up. (Yes, that includes during school... "Hey, stop jumping around on those tables! No, seriously! Ugh... the benches aren't better!)
Fourthly, I love to climb and navigate treacherous terrain, as well as sneak around. I'm willing to give a fair bet that I could sneak up on anyone here....
That's about it for now, but I'll add one more for now
If any have had the misfortune to be around me in theetownxorpsomething,ltheyoknowsabout imyvsignatureecupcakes, which happen to be quite sneaky at times...
Dallas-Dakota
2008-08-19, 01:03 PM

It's true, except they weren't called ninjas then, I think the term used was Arcani, or something like that. I've done a lot of research on the Greco-Roman era, and they were typically used in ambush.
Murska
2008-08-19, 01:22 PM
All I know about Arcani is from RTW, in which they wear 'scary' masks and can hide anywhere, but have small unit sizes.

The fact of the matter is that Areani and Ninja are spies, but Areani =/= Ninja. Areani don't have a war with pirates. Ninja do. Hence, this is Ninja we're talking about. Hence, they hail from Japan. Hence, One Ninja, Two Ninja.

Exactly, Areani != Ninjae. But that doesn't mean the Roman ninjae didn't exist - just that nobody has ever heard of them. In fact, the only evidence we have for the existence of Roman ninjae is the fact that the Japanese borrowed the word 'ninja' from latin.

I am running for Pirate in the Playground!!!
Pirates sail the open seas, using the pirate code to lead them to plunder. True pirates know that they are awesome.
They always defeat the ninjas. The ninja stealth doesn't even work. As Terry Pratchet said, wearing all black may look cool, but it only keeps you hidden in a cellar at midnight. Pirates, on the other hand, are either naturally stealthy, or are so awesome that they don't need stealth.
And pirates are even more awesome when they are angry. Remember, you can't spell "Pirate" without "Irate". (http://store.theworstpageintheuniverse.com/)
Vote Firestar27 for Pirate in the Playground!!!

Why you ask?
*points to avatar* Just one look is all you need, come on it is blatantly a sneak attack to the chest, the NPC is so shocked he hasn't even thought of dieing yet.
Come on, stabbing someone with his bare hand? that is freaking Ninja.
Also I am very big lurker, very few of the threads I read I then actually post in. Having gathered my information I slip away silently before anyone realizes I was even there.

Hello again! Yes that's right folks!! I'm jumping on this Kontest as well! I kertainly expect more support this time around as well! *Glares*
Anyway you'll notice I'm running for Pirate in the playground! As I'm kurrently kaught up in piratemania! This kontest just happened to pop up koincidentally during this feverish phase for me, which strikes me every kouple of months.
In any kase I plan on using this kontest to promote my kampaign to destroy Jack Sparrow. Why him!? Why that vile revolting thing people call a pirate!! because he's ruining piracy!!
Look what he did to Gilbert and Sullivan!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLwTcQbUIhE&feature=related) He's a kancer that must be kut out!! Kill!! KILL!!
On another note I really do deserve to win, I mean look at me! Am I not the spitting image of pirate!?
http://img378.imageshack.us/img378/5281/katpiratearroi5.png
You might point out the lack of peg leg, thats because I don't need to wave about a hook and a false leg to be pirate! Such things merely mark you out as a poser pulling out all the stops to seem piraty. Naturally I do have an eye patch, but with such a magnificent hat its difficult to make out! Just look at that hat! So big and round... oooh this must be love I'm feeling... mmm feels good.
Another example is that I like to think that I base my life after the greatest pirate of allllll time.. DON KARNAGE!!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZtTjMRxWRM&feature=related) Yes bow to him! Obey the great one!!

Not one of Don Karnage's kaliber of kourse.
From wikipedia:
Karnage is extremely conceited, and constantly berates his underlings in the face of his self-perceived superiority. Ironically, Karnage is only slightly less inept than them.
Karnage isn't even fit to lick my pirate boots!

Bah, there is no one greatest pirate ever.
There are two.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b2/Guybrush_Threepwood2.png
Guybrush Threepwood is the quintessential Chaotic Good pirate, a master of insult sword fighting and always able to figure out a way out of any situation with just a few random items, almost as if he were a character in some sort of adventure game.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/30/LeChuck.gif
LeChuck, on the other hand, is the ultimate Chaotic Evil pirate. Not even death could stop him - he came back FOUR times, each one more awesome than the last (ghost, zombie, demon, and all three, in order).
The fact is, if the two of them teamed up, they could destroy the world five times over without even trying. And they would. Oh yes, they would.
And that's why I'm the perfect nominee - I have the silliness, inventiveness, and sailing-the-seven-seas-in-a-bumper-car-iness of Guybrush, and the schemes, cannot-be-killed-ness, and pure evil of LeChuck.

One of these days, I'll kill you, and get a wizard to cast Wish and keep you dead. Then I'll have him Plane Shift me to whatever hell they send you to, and kill your spirit.
Ha ha ha, Devlin, you're such a kidder.

3. The purpose of the ninja is to flip out and kill people.
Real Ninjas can kill anyone they want! Ninjas cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These guys are so crazy and awesome (although not as crazy or awesome as pirates) that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this ninja who was eating at a diner, and when some dude dropped a spoon the ninja killed the whole town. My friend Haruki said that he saw a ninja totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.

Meanwhile, I´m no big fan of big speeches and such, while you make whole speeches and such, not befitting for a ninja. He is swift and silent. I just decided to make myself known for now.... To fade again......

Bah, You've missed the point of being a ninja. Ninjitsu is the art of subtlety. Ninja's are more likely to be disgused as a harmless old granny to observe the movements of their targets then to go on an omnicidal rampage. Ninjas work in the shadows in such away that even if they are seen, they are not percieved as a threat. You are in no way ninja-like with your pattern of behaviour.
Unforuantely for me no such catagory exists, and I would be beat out by other slightly more popular playgrounder such as Lord Fullbladder master of goblins, someone who I have killed in structured games multiple times, but anyway if someone is willing to make that bounus catagory, I'd gladly run for that as well, but dont expect me to drop my campign for Ninja itp, because I'm seriously sitcking to this white text promise. On another note, people of the playground, I myself have shownb myself to be dedicated, and sneaky in the past, taking great care in the many killings I have commited, with more than a few defeats along the wayy, but I take it into myself to learn from these defeats, and grow stronger from each one, honing my technique, and getting stronger every day.

Puzzles are for kiddy pirates... Are ye a kiddy pirate?
Also what kind of pirate be ye be if'n you never adventure out of yer home waters?
I have a sense of adventure I like to explore places!
Then burn them to the ground and plunder everything. In fact me ship runs on the cries of widows and orphans.
:smallsmile:
Puzzles are for kiddy pirates? KIDDY pirates!!? How small minded of you, Pirates live for puzzles, as well as rape and pillaging.
Theres venturing out into unknown waters and then theres hanging around in the boring shallow waters, I know whats there I just don't kare for most of it.

Haruki-kun
2008-08-20, 06:44 PM
Bah, You've missed the point of being a ninja. Ninjitsu is the art of subtlety. Ninja's are more likely to be disgused as a harmless old granny to observe the movements of their targets then to go on an omnicidal rampage. Ninjas work in the shadows in such away that even if they are seen, they are not percieved as a threat. You are in no way ninja-like with your pattern of behaviour.
Actually, Ninjutsu is the Art of Stealth, it literally means that. It is also considered an art of war whose sole purpose is survival. Its Pillars are "Strength in the body, Knowledge in the mind, and Courage in the Heart."
So.... yeah.
"Bah, the other canidates wear the colors of blue, and red, and others have just NOW, switched to tradtional black, I myself have always worn black ever since my angsty teen years, so I say to you, why not vote for someone whos been on the ninja bandwagon since BEFORE they were popular, i'm sure most of the people here, are in their early twenties if not their teens, so vote for me, I have thousands oof years of experiance, MILLIONS of victims, and I'm sexy to boot. So vote FF fanboy for Ninjaitp, he wont even now he's there.
Haruki-kun
2008-08-20, 06:51 PM
Wow, now I got a sudden urge to campaign just for that. <.<
Well, if I happen to campign towards my qualities, what are we gonna do, I'm surey not ging to debase m self with my very FEW bad qualities. (I'm campigning here, what can you expect?)
The Extinguisher
2008-08-20, 07:06 PM
To be fair, I've had this ninja kitty for a while now.
Anyway. It doesn't matter what Ninja's were actually about. We're pitting them against cowboys and pirates. Reality is far from needed here.
All that you need to know is cats are natures ninja, and therefore I am the best to win.
"No, they're not panthers are natures ninja, not little kittens.
But thats far from the point I want to make, I'am the best canidate because I'am the most experianced, and I have the best overrall qualities for the job. If you dont believe me I'll go into great detail, about how I was the one who REALLY killed Hitler, i actually like telling the story so go ahead try, and doubt me!"
"No, they're not panthers are natures ninja, not little kittens.

Benny walks over to FF Fanboy, unnoticed, and godmods him to death. Who would ever notice a child? Even when they have a knife in their hand, and are likely to STAB YOU!
"Oh, pwease! Evwyone's kiwed Hitwer one time oh anotheh!"
It's true!
"I weah bwue because I Wike it! A weal ninja doesn't weah bwack aw the time. And the pwurah of ninja is ninja!"
Why do I find myself so annoyed by this kid? Maybe it's his lisp.
"Can you campaign again?"
...vote for me, I'm a ghost ITP already. Benny is barely noticeable as is, which is key to being - at least - ninja-like. No we don't have any Japanese weaponry, or really anything like that. I don't really care for big speeches, which honestly, draw attention. That's not very ninja-like. I could run for Pirate, but there's enough of those as is, and Freshmeat_ has Cowboy in the bag. So all that's left is for me to say "Vote Blue Umbrella for Ninja ITP, and I'll think about not stabbing you with a kitchen knife!"
"Needs moh feewing!"
Blah blah blah! You need more sleep! Nap time!
"Awwwww!"
But really, if you want to be a Ninja, don't proclaim yourself as one. And don't go showing pictures of you as a ninja. They were never, and will never be showboats to the public eye. Naruto, Ninja Gaiden, Soul Caliber, D&D, etc. seem to be too influential on all of us. Let's try to forget about them when thinking about ninja, and what they really were. Pirates and cowboys on the other hand WERE showboats.
Blue, I like your Amen charecter honestly i do Paddingtons marmarldae addcition is just hillarious, but seriously keep the Rp to a minimal,
and the whole niot noticng benny thing is NOT possible, especially when you know him to be a murderous little munchkin, honestly, and when you get to
be twleve thousand years old, you will begin to reminecse in the past just as much as I do. As for my qualities as a canidate, I have many people who will
vote for me as ninjaitp, and will themselves attest to my ninjaness, and its only eventual that i will win, I mean COME ON, I've made campign promosies,
and told regalling tales, and even planted some evdience on DD, in order to get him out of the way. So once again my fellow playgrounder I come to you
as a simple fanboy, not a vampire, not a ninja, but as a person, and I'm merely going to ask you if you want a LITERAL child as your ninja, why NOT
go for the best possbile canidate, and the person who OBVIOUSLY put the most effort into the Ninja itp thing, I mean seriously do you see how LONG
these posts are? If it requires an avvy change I'll get it changed by one of
the MAGNIFICENT avatarists on this forum. need me to kill off some of the
competition, or need a job done, I got it for you, but I simply refuse to go down in this catagory without a fight, I mean seriously as far as I've seen
the only serious competition I have is Flame master axel, and one other guywhos name I cant remember, but I'm CLEARLY the best ut of all of them.
why you ask? becuase I have the most experiance, the best skill, and the best qualities ovverall, I mean seriously my wenitre RACE is built around dwelling in the darkm so why not viote for the guy that was BORN to do this job? Vote fanboy ninja itp 08', and make the right choice!
Edit; Okay the white text didn't g over like a planned, but I will STILL emerge victoruious.

Hilarious? HILARIOUS!? Marmalade addiction is a very seri- Seriou- Ser- Okay, I can't say that with a straight face.

2008-08-20, 11:14 PM
There is no definitive plural form of ninja, actually. Either ninja or ninjas can be considered correct, it just matters on preference. Lord Herman was drawing from ancient mediterranean roots, I believe, so his form could be correct, from the right point of view. [/end Obi-Wan Kenobi logic]
Well, the boards use the english language on these forums, so I guess that technicly we could argue that the most common, and most recgonized form of the plural of ninjas is the right one.

So.... yeah.
I second this it is in every way true but but true ninjas do and have always been able to disguise them self and in the blink of an eye kill an expecting victim now Blue Umbrella you are that victim
*throws 2 senbon into Blue Umbrella's neck then charges at him with a kunai in mouth and poisoned blades drawn*
I stand up from Blue Umbrella's body and turns around with the eyes of a skillful killer and says "Vote 1 Elrond for Ninja ITP" or your fate shall be the same as his
*Turns arounds jumps into a corner and disapears*

Coem one imagine it, the playground assassin, I'll go onto other forums, and slay our enemies stealthily, and the kills will be untraceable, so vote ME Ff fanboy for ninja itp.

Alright, that does it! You're disqualified from this contest for implying that I could make a mistake!
...no, not really.
But the plural of ninja is ninjae. Or possibly ninjai, if we're going with dallas' 'ninjai are greek' theory. There's little proof for that theory, but then again, the Greek ninjai could have been even more skilled than the Roman ones.
I was about ready to punch my computer screen in when I saw that first part, but then I saw the rest, and :smallsigh: in relief.

Too true. Though, I can't say I hated Depp as a pirate, it just wasn't very piratey.

I think your a good pirate. *offers rum*its poison
Come on, novice! I've been using that trick since well beofre you joined the boards. A couple pieces of advice:
1> You give them REAL RUM! Just spike it with a simple, quickly-metabolized poison - or something that breaks down their alcohol tolerance. Then you let the rum do the work for you as the drift off to sleep.
Then you do your deed and get out.
I'm not even of the opinion that you're a viable ninja candidate. Emo Vampires =/= Ninja.

:O
Clearly free hand is a desolate mook who is no real pirate. Everyone knows that Pirates of the carribean is a great pirate movie!
No rum for free hand because he proably couldn't even stomach it.
*twitches*
Good? GOOD? That festering mess of a movie is nothing more then a bag of bad pirate jokes! Its the bastard son of the themepark ride of the same name and warped version of Pirates of Penzance. Kill the Kancer before it spoils whats left of piracy! KILL it KILL IT!!
And for the matter rum is a sissy drink for those that are afraid to drink grog!
Yes grog! Nothing so piraty as that seawater swill!!
Watch as I down a cup!
*Looks at melted cup, formally containing grog.*
...On second thought, I'm not particularly parched at the moment.
VOTE FREE HAND FOR PIRATE ITP!!

I also disappeaered during the pre-nominations campagining, didn't I?
Into Japan. Friggin Japan.
Which, incidentally, is where I live.
Also - if you don't have the paitence to write out "Stealth Kill", and have to rely on the Tenchu abbrviation, you don't have the stones to be a ninja - that also pretty much says to me "I play too many high-flying ninja Videogames!".
Ninjtusu is an art based around diguise and misdirection more than actual combat or stealth.
Remeber? Farmers? Thats right, Ninja commonly posed as Farmers and landscapers on the estate of the guy they were going to kill. There, they nplanned for months to strike once. Swiftly, decisively, and then bow out - gracefully. It is for this reason that many ninja weapons look like farm impliments.
Kama, anyone?
I wouldn't vote you for ninja ITP if you put a ninja-to to my trachea and demanded it.
Fraud.

Your th fraud here, you merely be little you opponents, you honestly think that I dont use disguises, I once spent three days in a Nazi encampment, disguised as a POW, and endured torture for those three days just so I could take out a major, and steal he plans he was carrying, which just so happened to be the time, and place of the REAL D Day raid, and for thsoe of you unaquainted with history, the allies, knew that their were three major locations which they could take, and they knew the Nazi's knew it as well, so thery split their foces into three's the canadians, and the english, and the Americans each sent a rather large number o their forces, to sotrm their respective locations, however the Americans, leading the REAL raid, naturally had to stealth up their forces to make it seem as if they were of equal size to the other comapnies, so they used multiple smaller vessels in order to disguise both their numbers, and get their quite abit quicker. So you tell me was it NOT ninja''y to blend in so compltely that even though you were no where on the records, even your own torturer knew you were a vampire, so that when you staredd into his eyes, you could "convince" him to untie you, and then rip his heart out, and kill the major get the plans, AND leave unnoticed, I think I've earned my title.

This paragraph maes my brain weep.
For the record - the only opponent I'm belitteing is you.
Also, for those unaquainted with histroy - Operation TORCH was a joint venture, with "D-Day" as merely the American component.
Also, the American forces missed their beach, and landed somewhere they weren't supposed to.
Its also a commonly held belief that had someone woken up Hitler, so he could send the tanks, the D-Day invasion would have been unsuccessful.
Your supposed assassination impies so many blaring holes in the compound's security, its pathetic. Plus - you had to rely on your vampiric domination ability. Too tenous a perch on which to lay your supposed plan.
You've earned nothing.
Really, then watch me sing in latin!

Eldritch Knight

More reasons as to why I, Eldritch Knight am ideal for Ninja-itp:
- I have not resorted to cheap and idiotic tactics to get support like my opponents have.
- I have been lurking in the background while the others are standing around screaming 'Pick Me! Pick Me!', like any true ninja would.
- I have only spoken truth, keeping my honour intact instead of crafting elaborate falsehoods to get support.
Lies, and deciet are one of the many ways of the ninja grasshopper.
1: I'm not rude about this as some OTHER canidates have been. (THAN!)
2: I'm the obvious best canidate, I'm freindly *(when NOT on a mission.) dedicated, and I always get the job done.
3: I'm racially built for this I mean come ON, who can possibly be BETTER than a vampire to be a ninja, we can turn into gas leaving absoultely NO trace of us EVER being there, and can alter memories if required.
4: Do I really NEED to continue?

Furthermore, from the mouth of one of our own in one of the newer Werewolfish games being planned....
Eldritch Knight – A seasoned player who is very good at staying under the radar, he was selected very early by the Grand Game Breaker himself! Due to his under-the-radar abilities, he can elect to send in his real point to the narrator via pm.
That, my friends, is the absolute core of ninjaness!
Edit: And while it is true that lies and deceit are part of the ninja's tools of trade, it is difficult to use them while keeping your honour intact. If you go over my record of time spent on the playground there are very few recorded instances of dishonourable action on my part, and even still those issues were respond as honourably as I possibly could.
Ninjas are actually far more honourable than samurai, and I've yet to see anything that resembles honour from my opponents.
Well we cant do that since voting is out in the open, and theirs no way I'm getting banne for hacking the forums.

Indurain
2008-08-21, 04:53 PM
Alright...all this foolish bickering can come to an end. Whether it be posting in white text. Or claims of "I'm a better cheater than you". For Indurain has arrived on the scene to show you all why it's best if you just drop out now...for your own good.
You see, while everyone here has been talking about what they can do, and backing it up with no real proof, I have displayed by ninja skills in the midst of many pirates and yet I am still here to tell the tale. Long ago (about a week), I travelled to a far off land known as GenCon, and it was there I found myself surrounded by Pirates. Now it would have been easy to blend into the shadows and not declare my Ninja alliance, but that would be disgracing my fine heritage. So I took an opposite stance. I sent out rally cries for my brethren, taunting the Pirates at every turn, using all my sly and cunning to defeat them in battles of wits, physical prowess, and overall sex appeal. (That Thes lady was tough to beat)
You see, it's not just about who can hide the best, or the debate of subtelty vs. stealth (though both are important qualities for a ninja). It's about being proud to be a ninja. Most of the other people I look at who are running for ninja, aren't proud, they just saw an itP contest and suddenly declared themselves candidates. I have been carrying the ninja flag for decades, ever since I saw 4 turtles take on evil mutants in the sewers of New York. I have studied the art. I'm not doing this for the glory or the fame, a ninja does not care about such trivialities. I'm doing this so that the name ninja continues to mean something on these boards, and if these other candidates somehow emerge victorious, the name ninja will have lost meaning.
So, please...as you place your nominations and votes, do so knowing that a vote for Indurain is a vote for a true ninja...not just a person who wants an award.
Oh...and I'm still Invisible. Woooooo!
(I also invite anyone with Facebook to check out my "Flair Board" to double check my ninja-ness, as a large portion of my flair deals with my ninja abilities.)
your basing your win, off of the fact that you won the Pirates, V.S. Ninja arguement, I batter those fools down every day (for real, my step brother's best freind is a pirate lover, and I whup him in pirate V.S. ninja battles all the time.), and besides your just a human, I'm RACIALLY tooled for this kinda stuff.

You gotta be kidding me..... Ninja were human too! Believe it or not, they're not REALLY shadows of the night and all that, they're humans who trained to protect their people via the strategy of a good offense being the best defense.
so now your, being spciest!
but that aside, so what if they were orignaly human, BOTH my racial types are better suited for this both vampire, AND elf, which by themselves alone is actually a nice combo, for Dex, and strength, and hiding.

This is why - if you don't vote Thanatos, vote for 'ruki-kun!
Also - Vampire is a template.
Spiecism again! Just because we're "classified" as a template doesn't make us any less of a race, heck Half dragon is also a template, as Half-Celestial, but do you honestly see anyone insulting them nooo,
