Congrats, Code Geass subforum

[Oneironaut]

Anyone remember the shitstorm that followed the announcement of this forum, and not a Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann forum? Well, I have no life, so I've been crunching the numbers daily to see if TTGL really does warrant a subforum compared to CGR2. The results are as follows.

(Note: Points marked at the END of a date)

http://i28.tinypic.com/2cpu6pj.png
TSDL: It's taken fifteen days for the TTGL thread to produce what took this forum two. And this doesn't take into account the activity in the Code Geass thread.

And not only is this forum beating the crap out of TTGL in the present. This subforum is beating TTGL during the height of the series. I checked the deep pages of the TTGL thread from August 15th to August 31th of 2007, when episodes 20-23 of the series were released. The total post count for that period was around 3,200 posts, noticeably under the 3,500 posts that this forum has produced in the comparable from April 16th-May 1st.

You guys talk too much. But whatever, stunning work. I award you with a hearty Schneizel おめでとう!

[Fleecy]

I suppose it's because Code Geass stuff has more controversial stuff about it. For example, people hate and love (the latter more) Lelouch while Kamina holds the universal acclaim for GARness, whatever that is (I have not watched TTGL :zaru).

[Masaki]

Wow, if you think this was a validly done study then you just have no idea of what you are talking about.

First off, a section is generally going to get a bit more attention than a single thread because there can be more topics at once. If TTGL got its own subforum for the entire time, as opposed to just October, then that would have given it a huge boost as well. Oh, and did you even think to take into account that subsection?

Second, TTGL has been over for, what, over half a year, about? The fact that it's still getting 500 posts in two weeks even after this long says something.

Third, we didn't get the TTGL due to a few staff members being bias toward CG. But, a number of mods and admins place TTGL as their favorite anime, or at least of the two.

Your study is load of trash and your time would have been better spent learning a rubix cube.

[Nae'blis]

I was abuot to tell yuo to get the fuck off, now I'm not sure if I should or shouldn't. :S

[Nominal23]

Personally, I can't wait to see what NMaster64 has to say about this thread. :hehee

[DarkLordOfKichiku]

Just as planned! :kukuku

:amuse

[Soul Vibe]

lol wow you have wayyyyyyy too much time on your hands

[Oneironaut]

Wow, if you think this was a validly done study then you just have no idea of what you are talking about.

I strongly object to your imprecations. I had these figures compiled by a team of Harvard Statistics majors and peer reviewed the National Institute of Internet Graphs. I hired a forums demographic specialist to measure the trends on post counts versus date of subject release, and painstaking adjusted the figures to accurately represent the data. I pored through the SQL databases of Narutofan and factored every locatable post about both series, regardless of location.

I personally contacted Hiroyuki Imaishi with a translated version of the opening post and had him edit it to treat Gurren Lagann fairly. And you have the gall, no, the insolence to question the scientific rigor of my research?

lol wow you have wayyyyyyy too much time on your handsIndeed. smile-big

Anyway, I compiled this entirely for fun, as odd as that sounds. They're interesting figures, in my opinion. And if they stir up another cockfight of no-my-series-is-better-than-yours, then it's even more interesting. Remember everyone, no matter what they say, the Internet really isn't Serious Business.

Oh, and as for the subsection, I assume you mean the October AotM section? That was for a different time-slot than the August bracket I used (and anyway, at cursory glance, it doesn't look to have grown as fast as this forum). If August was actually a super-slow time for posting in the series, then I'd be glad to compare another.

[IchiTenshou]

I guess TTGL was too epic and the Movie coming soon too ^^
Post for CG will increase more if they got Code Geass Movie :nod

[Auron]

Wow a whole subforum getting more posts than and having more activity than 1 thread? A shocking discovery indeed. U should be in the running for a nobel prize for this one

[p0ltergeist]

As good as TTGL was, I can't think of anything to talk about now that's it's over. It wasn't that sophisticated of a story, and there weren't any real mysteries left unsolved.

And I believe that giving TTGL a subforum would have lowered its post count, if anything. This is because people would have realized more easily that everything that is being said now has already been said before. At least a few HUNDRED times, even. The TTGL thread as it is now is way too big to read, and half of what's in there already is irrelevant to the show, or just the same shit that someone posted x-thousand posts ago.

The thread has been given new life thanks to the movie.

[Piekage]

Your science has no place on the interwebs. :pek

Your fancy words don't make this thread any more meaningful.

This forum can be "congradulated", but not on that account.

[Saruto]

GTFO with your maths. I still want a TTGL subforum or a Mecha subforum.

[~Shin~]

Well Masaki pretty much ended this thread.

But an additional note, TTGL got over 5000 posts for a span of 5 episode during it's AoTM time. That's not even including the Blender threads that existed for each later episodes (each which averaged about 500-600 posts). And note that the Blender threads were just the RAW discussion when the episode was actually airing in Japan.

And you seem to discount one immense variable which is that Code Geass already had a Season 1. Meaning that it already had time to gain a fanbase to lead into Season 2.

Though you also seemed to ignore one other thing, the TTGL thread only had about 30,000 posts but now it has 43,407. So basically it got 13,407 posts after it finished airing. Which is monumentally more than what CG had when it was airing.

[Shodai]

NF HAS TURNED INTO GEASSFAGS VS GLFAGS?

OH LAWD :lmao

[Graham Aker]

The noodles will destroy the GAR. :pek

[Felix]

I approve this study
I'm still pissed off that TTGL didn't get it's sub forum back in the day. I'm against the idea at the present time. Makes no sense

[Sasuke X]

Stupid thread. A forum is always going to get a lot more posts than a single thread - People discuss stuff in topics dedicated to a single subject, instead of in a thread where people all tend to discuss only one subject at any one time to avoid it being messy.

But, to be honest, I'm happy TTGL didn't get a forum: TTGL is an over-rated series. It having a forum would only result in the Narutards who have moved from Naruto to TTGL spamming about 'GAR'...or whatever they talk about out. There wouldn't be any intelligent discussion about a series like TTGL. And, apart from a movie REMAKE of the series, TTGL is over, which means there would be even less chance of a TTGL forum with anything resembling intelligent discussion.

Code Geass, on the other hand, is far from over, S2 only being at 4/25 episodes, with there being the possibility that there may well be a 3rd series before Code Geass is finished. It's a very popular series, one that offers more in the way of discussion than a simple series like TTGL, and the fact it's on-going means this forum would generate more posts than a TTGL fanboy forum could.

[Enishi]

Obvious flamer op is obvious... and the sad part is that some people give him credit/support, sad as hell lol.

I almost forgot, GTFO :D

There wouldn't be any intelligent discussion about a series like TTGL

LOL@Sasuke X .... I won't comment on that concrete phrase just because I don't want to give more posts to this crappy thread, but, seriously....

No, really...

...

I hope you are already thinking about what you said :gar

Nah, seriously, you sounded like pompous there or something :3.

stfu this thread, keithnxbai

-------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: To the below poster:

Sorry, but I don't want to discuss in a flaming thread, nor do I want to post more here, wich will only give credit to the OP :zaru.

Also:

and, quoting me, says "stfu".

Read my post carefully, it says "stfu this thread", not "stfu you"... Understanding what you read > you :D.

And one thing I forgot saying:

In before nmaster :gar

[Sasuke X]

The above poster just proved the idiocy of your average TTGL fan: Unable to argue, he simply calls the thread "crappy" and, quoting me, says "stfu". A TTGL forum would be full of people just as a brainless as him.

There's not even any argument about Code Geass being deeper than TTGL, a show that's so shallow you find people only able to talk about manliness. Likewise, there's no possible argument against Code Geass deserving a forum more when it's on-going. If you put those two points together, I'm hopeful that even the average 'GAR' idiot can put 2 and 2 together.

[Jetstorm]

Masaki and ~Shin~ pretty much took the words right out of my mouth.

-edit-

Also knock off all the nonsensical flaming and fanboy wars.

[Sunuvmann]

If TTGL was more than just a single season anime, it'd more than merit its own subforum. But at this point it is a moot point. There isn't much left to be discussed since the anime is finished and all that appears to be left is a movie and while it will be awesome, its not enough with but for a single moment of ZOMGing to get its own now.

It would have been great to have had its own temporary one for the last few months it was showing, but after that, it'd have quickly died with no forseeable future. This anime as well will probably go inactive in the offseason as well. However thats why its being paired with its sister anime, Gundam 00 (that is the plan right?) so while one is inactive the other will be able to thrive and vice versa, depending on how long it goes.

The main point being, TTGL had nothing left except a movie, CG had nearly as big a fan base and a good season + left in it. The conclusion on which was the right one to do should have been obvious.

[Enishi]

I know I know, I said I wouldn't post here anymore, but i'm curious about one little thing:

Why are you all talking this TTGL subforum vs Geass subforum when all that is being requested now is the creation of a Mecha subforum, not a TTGL one????.

Seriously, the point of this thread is to say "Geass deserves a subforum more than TTGL"... wich, right now, is true... but... and???

No one is requesting a TTGL subforum nowdays. Please, refer to the post that nmaster made in the suggestions thread... like I said above, it's about a MECHA subforum.

It's just that I don't get why you guys keep arguing/explaining why Geass deserves a subforum more than TTGL when, right now, no one cares about that (And probably, with TTGL over and Geass still airing, no one is denying it either).

You didn't get the true meaning behind TTGL :notrust

[Sasuke X]

You didn't get the true meaning behind TTGL :notrust

- Manliness.
- No matter what the situation, you can win if you try.
- 14 year old boobs are the best kind.
- Having a proper story that isn't stupid is unnecessary.

What didn't I understand exactly? It isn't as if there's a lot to "get". Me preferring anime with depth doesn't mean I don't understand.

There's a lot more to it if you decide to look.

Anyway, the ultimate point of TTGL is to get your blood flowing and provide some of the most insane entertainment around. It achieved what it set out to do. It's totally different than Geass. At least you understand that it all depends on which type of show you prefer.

[Genesis]

It's good you took your time to do this and apparently enjoyed it, but it doesn't really have anything to do with this section. This is purely for discussion of Code Geass, the anime.

And besides, there's a lot of passionate fanboys for TTGL and CG, I'd rather not have them put a damper on this place as it's meant for the enjoyment of CG fans, simply put.

Locking.
