Ratings : Intelligence : Not native wit, but more a measure of how intelligent you *appear* to be on the board. Yang the Nausiating, for example, was an evil genius, but his messages were illiterate to the point of incoherency at times. Contribution to TCE : 5 stars - TCE! wouldn't exist without you. 4 stars - a pivotal member of the TCE! pantheon. 2 - 3 stars - typical user 1 star - who were you again? Sense of Humor : Closely tied to Intelligence, yin to yang. (N)onstop, (Q)uit, or [C]ontinue? Creativity : Just because you're intelligent and witty does NOT mean you can construct an original thought. "Foul"(tm) Factor : A term borrowed from Blackthorne, the only 5-star Foul. Hard to define, really. "I know foul when I see it." 5 stars - Blackthorne. A dark cloud hovers over your head. 4 stars - Usually dark and nasty, with occasional spells of niceness. 3 stars - Normal everyday tediousness. 2 stars - Perky. 1 star - Obnoxiously perky. 0 stars - People shoot at you. Horniness : I should hope this one is self-explanatory. Irritation Factor : A measure of how much you are detested by others, for whatever reason. 0 stars means you are God and people adore the dirt ack on their floor. 5 stars means you are a blight on this earth and all thinking creatures seek to slay you. HALL OF SH/FAME The most notable/notorious users on TCE!, in rough order of ascendancy to fame. PART ONE: THE EARLY YEARS COSMO Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE ***** Sense of Humor * - *** Creativity *** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness *** Irritation Factor ** - ***** In the beginning, there was the heavens, the earth, and Cosmo. Scourge of juvies everywhere, the Enforcer of TCE! has had a long, checkered career. Rumors of his impending overthrow are probably greatly rated - who else would want the job? AUTOX Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE ***** Sense of Humor **** Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness *** Irritation Factor * If it were not for Autox's having too much time and not enough sense, TCE! wouldn't exist. THE "MOTIONETTES" MOTION Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE ** Sense of Humor ** Creativity * "Foul"(tm) Factor * Horniness * Irritation Factor * - ***** GLORY Intelligence ** Contribution to TCE ** Sense of Humor * Creativity *** "Foul"(tm) Factor * Horniness * Irritation Factor * - ***** TEMPEST AKA SHOT-GUN SUGAR Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor * Creativity * "Foul"(tm) Factor * Horniness * Irritation Factor * - ***** The Motion clan were the first users to log on - many suspect that, since TCE!'s inception, there has ALWAYS been a Motionette online. Kind of like the Eternal Flame. The highly variable Irritation Factor is dependent on how you feel about 's era bobbysoxers. GODDESS OF THE MOON Intelligence ** - ***** Contribution to TCE * - **** Sense of Humor * - *** Creativity * - *** "Foul"(tm) Factor 0 - ** Horniness * - ***** Irritation Factor ** - **** Much like the moon itself, GoM's various attributes fluctuate wildly. She currently seems to be in an inactive stage, but, like everything else about her, this could change. WIRED CHILD Intelligence **** Contribution to TCE **** Sense of Humor ***** Creativity ***** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness ** - **** Irritation Factor ** - **** Hell, yes, I'm egotistical enough to rate myself. Much of me remains fairly consistent over the years, although both Horniness and Irritation e been known to shift wildly depending on mood. ISABOE AKA EX-CON Intelligence **** Contribution to TCE ** (was ****) Sense of Humor **** Creativity *** "Foul"(tm) Factor *** Horniness *** (was *****) Irritation Factor ** Isaboe's Contribution score took a big hit due to her long absence. Since her return, her Horniness score has gone WAY down (I haven't heard ference to nipple clamps in WEEKS). AKELA Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor *** Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness *** Irritation Factor ** Akela never was around long, but he does possess a certain notoriety as being the first official CosTarget(tm applied for). In fact, /Warfield was created as an arena for the two of them to duke it out. Akela eventually left with Isaboe when she quit the Already Faltering Edge (still Already Faltering as of this writing). BREEZE Intelligence **** Contribution to TCE ** Sense of Humor **** Creativity *** "Foul"(tm) Factor * Horniness ** Irritation Factor ** Breeze has been around forever (almost as long as Pancho's, in fact). Currently absent after about the 9,705th disagreement between he and Cosmo. BLACKTHORNE Intelligence **** Contribution to TCE **** Sense of Humor **** Creativity **** "Foul"(tm) Factor ***** Horniness ** Irritation Factor **** Truly a living legend. I'd say more, except he's not mad at me at the moment, and I'd prefer to keep it that way. FRESHMAN Intelligence ** Contribution to TCE ** Sense of Humor *** Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness * Irritation Factor **** The first juvie. Many more were to come. Many many many more. GODOT AKA GO-DOT Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE *** Sense of Humor **** Creativity **** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness ** Irritation Factor *** Often derided as "Blackthorne-in-training", but this jibe ceased when it became apparent that White Rose was, in fact, the official "Blackthorne-in-training". Currently belived to be in a country and western bar. SWEETART Intelligence ** Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor * Creativity * "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness ***** Irritation Factor **** Probably the first Classical HotANSIBabe(tm). Currently -- well, heck, we don't know WHERE she is. And we are quite content in this lack of knowledge. WHITE ROSE AKA SON Intelligence * Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor ** Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness **** Irritation Factor **** If you want to know anything about him, ask Blackthorne. In fact, I'm thinking of buying him an "Ask Me About My Grandchildren" bumper sticker for Bantha v2.0. Doesn't log on much (mainly because Blackthorne won't let him). BLACK FIRE Intelligence ** Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor ** Creativity * "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness ** Irritation Factor *** Long the butt of many jokes when he dated a Motionette (the middle daughter, I believe). Still around, keeping his love life VERY quiet.

Databank Part 2 (1 reply) (Copy by Autox) PART TWO The Years of Frustration, Joy, and Lots of Messages About Ultima VI HEAVEN Intelligence * Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor * Creativity * "Foul"(tm) Factor *** Horniness **** Irritation Factor ***** She came, she saw, she dumped inconvient husband, she left thousands of horribly inconsequential messages, she left a few broken hearts in her wake, she left. Currently believed to be mooching off of Stupid Boyfriend #1. DAGARTH (N)onstop, (Q)uit, or [C]ontinue?Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE *** Sense of Humor **** Creativity **** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness ** Irritation Factor ***** The one person most responsible for people typing ".actions off" when they log on. You either love him (if you're him), hate him (if he's flaming you), or both (most everyone else). But you can't ignore him (unless you get to Tcon, that is). BABYDOLL Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE *** Sense of Humor *** Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness * Irritation Factor *** You have to give her credit, she's muddled through a lot of abuse over the years. Heck, it's almost enough to make me turn turbo-christian. Given two extra stars on Irritation due to her incredible tenacity during arguments. YANG THE NAUSIATING (sic) Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE **** Sense of Humor ***** Creativity ***** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness **** Irritation Factor ***** Truly a demented, sick, extremely heavily armed individual. Currently in Seattle, where he probably is responsible for Kurt Cobain's death. He can be reached through his Mom, called (would you guess) "Mrs. The Nausiating". MACBETH Intelligence *** Contribution to TCE *** Sense of Humor *** Creativity **** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness ** Irritation Factor *** ** A juvie notable for the incredibly long time he's been irritating. BRAD HICKS AKA (too numerous to list) Intelligence * Contribution to TCE 0 Sense of Humor * Creativity * "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness **** Irritation Factor ***** too boofoo for yu VERRUCHTER `ntelligence *** Contribution to TCE * Sense of Humor **** Creativity *** "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness *** Irritation Factor * If he'd actually post once in a while...

Databank Part 3 (1 reply) (Copy by Autox) PART 3 We Gather Today To... DIOGENES Intelligence **** Contribution to TCE **** Sense of Humor **** Creativity *** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness *** Irritation Factor ** Scourge of hated juvies everywhere. Also a renowned herbal scholar. "ENDORA" AKA DEANNA AKA JACK FROST Intelligence ***** Contribution to TCE **** Sense of Humor ***** Creativity ***** "Foul"(tm) Factor **** Horniness **** (N)onstop, (Q)uit, or [C]ontinue?Irritation Factor ***** Truly legendary, if nothing else then for all the speculation and emotion that "she" stirred up. Never have so many been worked up over so little. The weird thing is, with the strength of "Endora"'s prose, styling, and creativity, "she" could have been a vital part of TCE! without resorting to transvestitism. Warning -- "she" told me that "she"'s coming back soon with a new identity... SWEET JANE Intelligence ** Contribution to TCE *** Sense of Humor **** Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor ** Horniness ***** Irritation Factor *** She's married, guys. Give it up. CHASTITY Intelligence ** Contribution to TCE ** Sense of Humor * Creativity ** "Foul"(tm) Factor *** Horniness ***** Irritation Factor **** If I could give 6 stars for Horniness, she'd get em all without breaking a sweat. Truly a legend of sorts. If I missed anyone, let me know and I'll add 'em to the databank. wC gawd, the hate mail I'm a gonna get.... heh heh heh (R)eply, (E)mail reply, follow (T)hread, (P)revious or [N]ext message?
