Who's Done the Most Damage?

[Coronis]

I'm sorry how does Johan get to claim to be chanderpaul's biggest hater when I've been doing it for years ? He's a rookie.

@kyear2 is easily the one who's done the least damage. The more nonsensical arguments he makes about imran the higher many posters seem to rate him because they go through imran's record and realize he's even better than they previously thought.

Yeah I was thinking, a lot of this is more recency based. These kids think they know it all.

If Palpatine gets arrested, I'm pretty sure Matthew Stover's Revenge of the Sith novel clearly had a whole section dedicated to showing how Palpatine had already done all the planning for a trial where he would argue the Jedi forcefully arrested him on a basis of "differing religion" IE him being a Sith and he'd use that to win the trial and announce Jedis as religious fanatics who tried to take over, a Civil War would come and Order 66 would happen all the same but if Anakin doesn't turn, he dies too.

I do remember having that novel as a kid but its probs at my rents house so I can’t confirm. I guess survival of Jedi would largely depend (apart from fringe cases like Yoda and Obi-wan) of whether you were actually with the clones at the time though. Don’t reckon Anakin is leaving Coruscant in that scenario if Padme is there at that point. And you’d think some of the notable Jedi (council members especially) would’ve been called back from the front lines too.

Picard obviously

Oh so its just Star Wars in particular you don’t like?

Star Wars is fine. Not a huge fan

We need a poll with OGs:

@Prince EWS on Lillee
@OverratedSanity on Chanderpaul
@Himannv on Sangakkara

This is like a collection of the absolute worst of CW. Agenda-posting is just such a drag.

So getting back on topic.

When I got back on the forum in the early 2020s, and really started the process of making ranking lists and researching older players I used to have Curtly Ambrose top 3, 4 bowlers all time. Now I would say he pretty clearly stands alone, but solidly at the number 6 spot, for mine.

I just really don't feel like giving subz too much credit for that though so I didn't vote for him and went Coronis instead.

This is just petty lol refusing to give me credit.

 

[subshakerz]

Disappointed to not be on the poll for my anti-Lillee campaign.

Yeah that's your crusade

 

[Prince EWS]

@Prince EWS I love you by the way

May's standardised average was 54, higher than Sobers.

Gooch still sucks though.

Don't you constantly smear the legacy of (checks notes) renowned Pakistani great, Shahid Afridi?

Love has ups and downs

Don't forget Asad Shafiq!

You've been agenda posting against Barrington for like 5 years, have some self awareness.

Kirk is a better military commander. Picard was often so peace friendly he put the Enterprise at risk.

But Picard just embodies the spirit of the Federation more. It's exploration and multilateralism, not military conquest.

Picard is literally the embodiment of the Prime Directive; whereas Kirk was more the Prime Erective

 

[capt_Luffy]

Don't forget Asad Shafiq!

I genuinely do forget him at times.

 

[capt_Luffy]

Better actor.

But otherwise, Picard was a better diplomat, cared more about the Prime Directive, and saved Earth from the Borg.

I mean ofcourse, it's Sir Patrick Stewart

It's what is keeping the forum alive

It's only keeping this subforum, which is the taint of the forum, alive.

I miss trundler’s Kallis stuff

 

[Johan]

I miss trundler’s Kallis stuff

[Prince EWS]

I miss trundler’s Kallis stuff

Kallis was an allrounder.

 

[Johan]

As good as Ted Dexter per a certain Definitely not Agenda poster
