What's Your Favorite Ancient Poll to Gravedig?

[Iskanderia]

If you had to pick a single poll from 2008 or prior to reply to, what would it be?

 

[Einherjer]

i furiously whack to all yu~kis, but i furiously whack to beast of blood yu~ki the most

 

[Einherjer]

LMAO "The Worts era of Malice Mizer" gets an honorable mention, though.

 

[Einherjer]

cast your votes, people!

 

[Iskanderia]

I like "Worst MM PV (to furiously whack it to)?" because I felt like it was the most thought-provoking poll we've ever had.

 

[Einherjer]

remember in the gekka PV where gackt jumps really high for no reason? that was always a boner killer

 

[Einherjer]

and also the part where he moves his eyes back and forth really fast

 

[~Z e n c h o u~]

that language inadequacies one made me LOL.

 

[holylampposts]

that part in gekka where the ghosts dance on the wall always freaks me out. I can't watch that PV before I go to bed

 

[Cerceaux]

The Worts era of Malice Mizer

I just now realized that said "worts".

 

[lady_toast]

The Worts Era of Malice Mizer, if only for the typo alone that makes it epic. :p

 

[SDjilliaRE]

I CARE! BEING A SILVER FAWN IS MUY IMPORTANTE!

Hey, I didn't make the original poll. I just copied and pasted.

But I think it's a valid question. Which is the "worts" era of MM?

And are are we talking "warts" or are we talking "worts" as in herbs used in witchcraft and herbal antidepressants of agruable repute?

I don't know, but either way, I'm going with Gackt.

 

[Phantom Pabulum]

"Worts" is warts with an English accent!

I thought the astrological sign one was the best one gravedigged. It has the most pointless in my opinion.



I remember participating in that thread when it was first posted, when I was 15. And even then, I thought it was pointless.

^^That was only posted two years ago. Aren't you going on 19 now?

I love reading the old threads. Once upon a time when -scape- was more than just us die-hards, and when we still had opinions about music videos and costumes and best/worst songs... *sigh*

The Astrological Sign poll isn't old enough for me to consider it "Ancient". It's still a pretty fresh grave if you ask me.

I can't even find that Language Inadequacies one, so can't comment there...

Who is Your Favorite Yu~ki is amazing, because come on. You've got a tetra-colored first post that includes an outdated emoticon no one has used in years and it was posted by a member that joined six years ago who no one remembers. It's the epitome of an ancient grave, plus the topic makes me laugh.

The Worst PV thread is amazing because it's a perfect example of the Golden Days of -scape-. When I read through it I still get the urge to comment just because everyone has interesting opinions and we never get to talk about stuff like that anymore. There was a larger pool of posters back then. It's kind of a memorial IMO.

I have to give The Worts Era thread props because it's a five-year-old typo (FTW), it was posted by someone I've never even heard of, and not only did I make embarrassing posts in 2006 back before I had even listened to half of Malice Mizer's discog and could even remotely form an informed opinion on what I was talking about, but I got to post again in 2009 and I just think that's funny.

Going through this stuff is like going through a yearbook.

EDIT: Oh, I guess it's a toss-up between those last three. Good times man, good times.

I'm turning 18 on July 30th.

It actually seems weird to me that I'm still 17.

edit: the best part of the Yu~ki thread is what the original poster put in parenthesis next to each Yu~ki variety.

Gekka No Yasokyoku Yu~ki (Admiral Mustard Dust)
Garnet Yu~ki (Cult robe with curly hair)
Beast of Blood Yu~ki (half faced hair, & black suit with cane)
Bel Air Yu~ki (Orange Golf plaid)
Au Revoir Yu~ki (feathery shirt of doom)
Shiroi Yu~ki (Vampire sophistique)
Gardenia Yu~ki (Orange Mad Hatter)
Bara No Konrei Yu~ki (all black, curly hair)
Kyomu Yu~ki (Braids gallore)
Ma Chérie Yu~ki (drunken bassist)
Le Ciel Yu~ki (Feathery with a flute)
N.p.n.s N.g.n.s Yu~ki (crazy nazi get up)
Illuminati Yu~Ki (electro orange haired madman)

My favorite is Admiral Mustard Dust.

@Berserk: Sure, I agree with all of that. Old threads are fun to read and polls are always fun. And it's a bummer that we've pretty much exhausted every possible topic of discussion regarding this band at this point.

But it's still funny to see someone come stumbling in so clueless like that.

Found it! (language poll)

I wish I could comment on ancient polls too for the same reasons you gave.

Kind of unrelated to the topic, but I've been reading through a bunch of the ancient polls, and they're so interesting... I feel as if I've learned more about people from their answers to the ancient polls than from stuff they say now, if that makes sense @_@
(Maybe people were more open back then? Hmles...)

Yeah, I know this poll wasn't supposed to be a nostalgia trip, but it just turned into that for me.

I feel the same way! I think it's because their opinions were still fresh back then whereas now it's kind of like we've been around for a few years and just don't feel that strongly about our opinions of stuff like that anymore.
