Posted November 26, 2016 Welcome one and all once again to our yearly tradition! That's right Ookla the Mokovial is now! For those new to the tradition, every year around this time, we have fun renaming ourselves to "Ookla the _____" in celebration of @PeterAhlstrom, Brandon's assistant! For those wondering about the lore behind this holiday, i say shove off! ...Ok, fine. This tradition was started to recognize peter for generally being awesome for all the unseen work he does! The reason for the name change is because way back on the time waster's guide forums, peter went by the username "Ookla the Mok". In order to commemorate him and his old username, we came up with this tradition mostly off handedly and/or as a joke some 5 or 6 years back, and it just kinda stuck! The holiday generally runs until we get bored of it, which usually goes for about a week or so, so until then, try to come up with a creative, festive name! 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 27, 2016 Some names are quite easy to guess... some people I no longer recognize and then there are some I know who they are but have no idea where their Ookla title comes from For example, @Ookla the Chibi. I'm pretty sure who you are but no idea why "chibi" Is this supposed to be solvable? P.S. Mine's a little poetic but I think it's solvable. Oh, and I changed my avatar. And my signature. Still solvable though 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 27, 2016 Pretty sure I'd be solvable even if my userpic weren't the same. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2016 If there's somebody out there who can't solve mine, I'm going to need to stare at a wall and rethink the world for a while. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 27, 2016 Why are there so many "Ooklas the..." + I-adjective? Is this how it's supposed to be played? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 27, 2016 I think it's supposed to specifically be "in", and should be unrealistic. Insolvable, indivisible, so on. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
