- | My major contributions to the wiki:
| + | {{User:Phlip/tower}} |
- | * All of [[Stinkoman 20X6 Walkthrough Level 4]] except the boss strategy, and the transcript part of [[Stinkoman 20X6 Walkthrough Level 9]]
| + | ==Profile== |
- | * The Level 4 through 6 enemies in [[Stinkoman 20X6 Enemies]]
| + | ;Name:Phillip Bradbury |
- | * Starting [[Glossary#V|Videro]]
| + | ;Age:{{yearssince|5 March 1985 +1100}} |
- | * Started the transcripts for [[Alamo Drafthouse - 10 Jun 2005]]
| + | ;Location:Gosford, NSW, Australia |
- | * Made the trophies for the [[Forum:3710|S2005 HRWiki Forum Awards]]
| + | ;Inner left thigh measurement:31cm |
- | * Did a lot of work documenting [[Random Toon]] and its side-effects, including all the [[Puppet Stuff]] having their own HTML files now (though I didn't start the page, and others have contributed a lot to it too)
| + | ;Currently:A professional computer programmer. |
- | * Random [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:WikiGnome|gnoming]]... why were there so many templates with centering broken in the exact same way? It's like people just went and copied the same broken one over and over...<br><tt>style="margin: 0 auto"</tt>, people!
| + | ;How I found Homestar Runner:A couple of people were talking about it in a chat channel once, and someone posted a link to [[crazy cartoon]]. I watched it, and was both amused and confused... then I watched the latest [[Strong Bad Email]], which at the time was [[mile]] - having seen two [[PbTC]] toons in a row, I thought they just couldn't do flash well, even though it was kinda funny at times (though I didn't really get [[mile]] of course). Then I saw [[First Time Here?]], and watched [[A Jorb Well Done]] as it said to, another toon with relatively bad graphics, and which to this day I still don't find very funny. But then I watched all the [[Character Videos]], and some other SBEmails, and got hooked. |
- | Other achievements:
| + | ;How I found HRWiki:I was actually planning to make my own site very similar to this one (except not a wiki) - Transcripts, Inside References, etc... Then, on one 1 April 2005, I thought "Come on, this is the Internet, someone's surely done this already", hit Google and found this site. I signed up immediately. |
- | * My [[Forum:3336|Stinkoman 20X6 Cheat Program]] was [[HRFWiki:HRFWiki:Fanstuff of the Week/Old Winners 1#Stinkoman 20X6 - CHEAT VERSION|Fanstuff of the Week]] for 29 May - 5 June, 2005
| + | ;Shiny website:http://www.mrphlip.com/ – Hosted by [http://www.fellowsites.org/ FellowSites]... cheap, friendly, and I'm helping (in an admittedly small way) to keep the wiki alive. On the downside, I sound like an advertisement when I talk about it... |

- | ==What a debate should be like==
| + | |
- | In a debate, unlike an argument or a good old-fasioned yelling-at-each-other, both sides present their arguments clearly, and accept the other side's arguments graciously. There's debunking of arguments, sure, but no "omg how can u think that?? u sux!!" or anything of that sort. Plus both sides must be willing to change their viewpoint - steadfast stubborness is a bad thing to bring to a debate. I would like to thank [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] for this enjoyable debate about a [[HRWiki:STUFF/Archive/Commandos in the Classroom#And Knowing Is Half the Battle!|fun fact]] that was in [[STUFF]] at the time.

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | I really think if it was a "knowing is half the battle" takeoff they would have ended the toon with the Commandos all saying together something like, "and information is the key to the universe"

| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:blue">'''Phlip:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | not all the cartoons that had these segments did something like that

| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | there again, we disagree. I think they would have been more blatantly GI Joe if they meant it more than "health class" video

| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | to me, it would be like having a robot that looked like a humanoid version of a car and fought in an army against an army of humanoids versions of jets, and then they never transform

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | my plurals are messed up in that sentence

| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:blue">'''Phlip:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | still, it's characters from a (parody of a) kids cartoon show doing a public service announcement - it's worth mentioning that the kids shows it's parodying did that too

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | so ignore that

| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:blue">'''Phlip:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | agreed the content of that PSA is worded more like a health class video

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | you can't see me, but I'm making that face you make when you're trying to agree with another person but just aren't quite convinced

- | |-
| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:blue">'''Phlip:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | maybe it deserves a rewrite - make it less GI Joe-specific, and less definite (add "could be" or something)

- | |-
| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | I think that would cripple it as far as usefulness. I think the more GI Joe-specific things we find, the better, and the rest is periphery

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | and only about 1 in 500 facts is a good "could be", in my estimation

| + | |
- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:darkred">'''Dot com:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | every now and then, we need a "could be" or a "may be"

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:blue">'''Phlip:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | how about "This episode is similar to the segments that many 90's childrens shows (including GI Joe) would inclde after their show"

- | |-

- | | style="text-align: right;" valign="top" | <span style="color:blue">'''Phlip:'''</span> || style="text-align: left" valign="top" | removes "based on" and replaces "and now you know" with something more recognisable to people like me who've never actually seen GI Joe
