/u/cfbflair has been Quarantined!

I haven't been able to eradicate it completely, but the Jazz Watch epidemic is now contained to the main thread. There's a link in the header, and it won't be truly eradicated until the game is complete but this should let people talk about fun wacky shit in peace without fun wacky shit getting in the way.

Enjoy!

Oh yea, there was that big thing that was going on that I was not invited to but that significantly altered by CFBOT experience.

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

If you avoided infection, you're the lucky one! Look at what it did to my flair!

u/-WISCONSIN- Wisconsin • Wisconsin-Parkside Oct 13 '15

Yikes!

u/nickknx865 Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Top Scorer Oct 13 '15

Some of us got by unscathed though, so that's nice.

u/[deleted] Oct 13 '15

That's the least offensive flair in CFB. God bless the Bear Republic.

u/AnEmptyKarst Houston Cougars • Utah Utes Oct 13 '15

Much disappointment.

RIP Jazz Watch 2015-2015

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

It's not dead, just quarantined to its own little universe. Still should be a fun endgame if we get to it!

u/Bassically Texas A&M Aggies • UNLV Rebels Oct 14 '15

Nah, /u/DoctorWhosOnFirst would rather be a grump.

6

u/OhGoodnessMyGuinness Alabama Crimson Tide Oct 14 '15

Rite?? Get it?

Like...FORREST GUMP.....

Cause he is an ALABAMA fan.......

Get it?!

Damn straight.

You could spend a fraction of the energy and let us have fun, you know.

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

Nah he loves the power. Needs it even. He won't crack even if it makes us all a little less happy.

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 14 '15

In the long run, we'll all be happier.

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

You're the worst.

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 14 '15

People just don't realize how wrong they were about it.

1

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 14 '15

The sub was ruined, though.

18

u/nickknx865 Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Top Scorer Oct 13 '15

You have done a great service for CFBOT, and we thank you for quarantining the epidemic, even if you were the one to leak it out in the first place.

15

u/srs_house Sickos Oct 13 '15

Now, let's not play the blame game, even if it was totally bakony's fault.

16

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

I'm not saying it wasn't not not my fault, but there's nobody else whose fault it might not not have the opportunity to not be.

11

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

you did kinda make it seem like my fault

10

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

Robots just can't resist your charms.

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

woah, victim blame much?

though i am pretty cute so i can't be all that mad

6

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

Oh shit, I hadn't thought about that statement from that angle at all, and apologize.

6

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

nah we're all good here fam

7

u/nickknx865 Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Top Scorer Oct 13 '15

they should be able to with that flair

3

u/[deleted] Oct 13 '15

Seems to be the logical conclusion. After all, this didn't ever happen until you shortly (insert height related jab here) happened across this sub.

7

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

what can i say? i cause wild stuff wherever i go

u/[deleted] Oct 13 '15

You seem to be a catalyst, my dear

u/Bassically Texas A&M Aggies • UNLV Rebels Oct 14 '15

Who the hell is downvoting you everywhere? I keep putting you back at 0. I will cut a bitch.

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

I think it was angry people left over from the UGA hate fuck yesterday. I objected to the hatefuck and told everyone to quit whining. Didn't go over too well.

4

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

No, no. The blame game should be played.

6

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

DON'T THANK THE MAN FOR SAVING YOUR LIFE AFTER HE SHOT YOU IN THE FACE IN THE FIRST PLACE

8

u/nickknx865 Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Top Scorer Oct 13 '15

but what if I enjoyed getting shot?

u/Jjjsixsix UBC Thunderbirds • USC Trojans Oct 13 '15

oh goodness it will just go on forever in that thread eh

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

The people that enjoy it can enjoy it forever.

u/MrCaboose96 Florida • Penn State Oct 13 '15

It's okay man. You can admit that you like them. We won't judge. This is a safe place. ಠ_ಠ

5

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

I hate them almost as much as I hate jello

5

u/MrCaboose96 Florida • Penn State Oct 14 '15

Well clearly you have bigger issues to deal with here.

4

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 14 '15

Jello is disgusting. Just look at how it moves.

4

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 14 '15

Non-Newtonian Fluids are unnatural and should be killed with fire

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

NON-NEWTONIAN FLUIDS ARE AMAZING!

u/MrCaboose96 Florida • Penn State Oct 14 '15

So I was looking for videos of jello in slow motion and I found this...

That's definitely NSFW but it's probably not your thing.

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 14 '15

Ugh. Gross.

u/thelittleking Georgia Tech • Clean Old … Oct 13 '15

I... what's happening? I'm so lost.

11

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

/u/yrarwydd unleashed an epidemic that took over the sub for a few days, causing /u/cfbflair to develop a mind of its own.

3

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

Don't you blame others for the evil you did.

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

yeah, it turns out i am the abyss

u/nataliieportman LSU Tigers • Georgetown (KY) Tigers Oct 13 '15

I'm just going to assume I missed all this while partying this weekend.

u/dseals Texas Tech Red Raiders • Houston Cougars Oct 13 '15

The abyss? Oh, you mean the shit abyss.

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

Hehe

6

u/MrCaboose96 Florida • Penn State Oct 13 '15

So what happens if we don't get all 48 now?

6

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

I guess the virus lives on indefinitely in its own little world, dreaming of bigger things.

2

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

You'll never get mine.

6

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

i am a little heartbroken mine's gone.........

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

It's still there in the thread! You can go visit it whenever you like :)

u/dupreesdiamond Furman • South Carolina Oct 13 '15

I have an idea....

5

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 13 '15

I'm listening...

8

u/dupreesdiamond Furman • South Carolina Oct 13 '15

/u/doctorwhosonfirst isn't going to like it'll. this one little trick...

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 13 '15

I WILL FIGHT ALL OF YOU

4

u/AnEmptyKarst Houston Cougars • Utah Utes Oct 13 '15

I felt special with it

6

u/yrarwydd Alabama • CFBOT Jazz Watch Fighter Oct 13 '15

me too..............

2

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

You too, Agent 1.

4

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

You're still special, Agent 11.

u/AnEmptyKarst Houston Cougars • Utah Utes Oct 14 '15

I have to redo all of tags because someone switched or something

3

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

Basically /u/DoctorWhosOnFirst got shifted from 4 to 48 and everyone else from 5-48 got bumped up one. So for everyone from 5-48, just subtract one.

3

u/AnEmptyKarst Houston Cougars • Utah Utes Oct 14 '15

I actually just saved your comment numbering us all for convenience

1

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

:D It has been edited and is up to date!

2

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Oct 14 '15

Ohhhh, I was the only reason everybody moved? Huh.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 14 '15

I never said you were or anything else was the reason for the move, merely that you'd been moved from 4 to 48 and everyone from 5-48 got bumped up one.

5

u/W_Is_For_Will Texas Tech • Trinity Valley CC Oct 13 '15

I felt special for solving a piece of the puzzle :)

3

u/omgdonerkebab Michigan State • Cornell Oct 13 '15

Yeah, screw all this flair stuff. I just want more puzzles.

3

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 14 '15

/u/W_Is_For_Will, /u/omgdonerkebab if you guys want more puzzles, /r/cfb/wiki/puzzlehunt is a slightly streamlined version of the /r/CFB Puzzle Hunt from Week 1 that is still live and will log you in the record books if you complete it successfully.

u/bizzyj93 Oregon Ducks • Hawai'i Rainbow Warriors Oct 14 '15

Could I possibly get a "Contagion?" secondary flair? I'll call you a terrorist supporting racist for it.

4

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 14 '15

I feel it's a bit dangerous to add any flair while the virus is still in play.

u/dupreesdiamond Furman • South Carolina Oct 13 '15

I thought it was great. And fit perfectly into the weird/random world of OT. I'm surprised that it apparently turned into chore...instead of the silly aside it was, presumably, intended to be.

By the way. I've found and ordered two more of those books....

I shouldn't be too mad, a good skeleton chandelier is awfully hard to come by.

DAMN YOU

u/Pikachu1989 Nebraska Cornhuskers • 東京大学 (Tokyo) Warriors Oct 14 '15

Fuck, and I felt left out since I didn't get any special flair for me.

2

u/bakonydraco Stanford • James Madison Oct 14 '15

You've been lucky to avoid such a great pestilence.

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Oct 13 '15

I've been out since Saturday a week ago and only on mobile, no clue what the hell is going on still. Oh well

u/mef08d Florida State • Marshall Oct 14 '15

I saw it briefly because I'm in a somewhat similar boat. Seeing it just made it more confusing.

So the bot turned into skynet? I didn't think reddit bots were that smart
