Zak appreciation thread

A single berserk reached us yesterday, after having come all the way over the mountains from the city of Willow, fourteen hundred miles away. He delivered to Alric a single package the size of a man's fist, wrapped in rags, and refuses to talk with anyone about events in the West.

Zak appreciation thread

Post by Zak »

Zak won't be around forever. I want the community to submit their opinions on Zaknafein. I will get the ball rolling.

The flippant Zak, that would cruise into a series of fun games and then at their peak of momentum suicide and ruin everything is clearly the villain.

The Troll Zak, The dummy Zak, the pink Zak, the internet stalker zak. The villains are piling up here, and this guy seems like more of an asshole now that I see it all typed out.

The hero Zak....the guy who never gave up on myth, the guy who always shows up for matches, the guy who missed his mom's 3rd wedding for a myth match.

The guy who is willing to sacrifice winning to pick joke teams in draft tourneys and then wins above all odds.

The guy who doesn't make excuses when he loses, because he doesn't care. The guy who relentlessly trolls people we all want to see trolled, but we're too lazy to do it anymore after so many years, ZAK IS THERE ALWAYS. He's there M-Sunday trolling these people - reminding them that whatever they did in Myth 2 amounts to nothing in real life.

He's the guy that got banned by OM and didn't care, and just came back like herpes. WHERE IS OM now? Who gives a shit? Where is Zak? STILL HERE.
Zak wrote: Some great quotes:

Olong2
Z, my primary pique with you is that you're an insolent asshole who feels some kind of twisted sense of entitlement in the stealing of other people's work (while giving them no credit), slapping-together mostly mediocre plug-ins.
Vinylrake
who knows - for all I know "olong2" is one of Zak's dummy accounts and he's doing this just for chuckles or to give himself some PR.
Adrenaline
Zak was logged in on 4 accounts simultaneously tonight... surely that, in itself, is a breach of some kind of rule? (logins: wylldawgg, hishnik, werewolf, leespringield)... and I think once more one a guest acct even... anyone that will go to such lengths to disrupt the peace is not worth having around. So yes, I full-heartedly support a banning of this idiot. He constantly suicides, drops, and engages in general idiocy... he is of no use to this community, and mariusnet would be far better off without him. I'm sure if we handed out a petition, nearly every active player would sign it.
Golem
Zak works really hard at doing what he does. I've seen him having the same "who, me?!" conversations many times over the past year. I try not to rise to the bait but he barely requires a reaction (a half-hearted 'ban zak!') to hateplay for the next 3 games in a row.
Tirri
zak keeps terrorizing everyone and raping and retiring people at will. thats why im afraid to come online. zak is the future of myth
Sasper
This is precisely the type of response that drives him to do these things. he's incorrigible; he plays myth solely to cause as much disruption as he can. the best solution is to quietly ignore him, wank him from games, and do your best to disregard his crap (i know, its not easy). if he gets banned by ppe, it will only further encourage him to come back with a new ip and screw around.
Seeker
I do not think Zak should be banned. If anything, Zak is a product of this community. He is the product of the enormous abuse heaped upon him whenever he logs online. Zak merely behaves the way he does to spite you. He's bought into your preconceptions of him, and has decided, "Ok if this community has decided that I am a menace, very well, I will be a menace."
Ducky
if you don't want to play games with Zaknafein (wylldawg) you might want to watch out for other players you don't recognize - Zak has a history of pretending to be other people. (tonight for example on the server he was pretending to be both 'The Tower' and killerking)
Homer
ZAK WAS AND IS ANNOYING, AND SHOULD GET SOME SORT OF A PUNISHMENT. His bleach blonde hair makes me want to punch him in the face, but he was one of myths most active players, which makes his ban even more consequential. Only a very active player can understand the full ramifications of such a ban. Sitting in the myth lobby on an early morning one active player like Zak can make the difference of crappy three player BC game to a set of fun 2 team or ffa games with even teams.
Elfoid
Even if Zak didn't deserve the lifetime ban for breaking the rules, he did for being stupid enough to expect to get away with it.
Liger
Back in the day (or three years ago) I probably would have made a 20 page post on this issue on how much I hate zak and how he deserves to be banned and also how retarded the admins are that they would destroy one active player just to satiate themselves in their own inactivity...but mostly how zak deserved to be permab&.
Pyro
For what it is worth, I don't think Zak believes everything he is saying. Maybe its just me, but Zak seems to like to stir things up. Not in the traditionaly troll way. More like he does something as a sort-of-joke and when he gets a reaction he doesn't quite like... instead of ignoring it or disolving it somehow he tends to feed it more.
Elfoid
Zak you're a poor liar. Grow up and shut up. It's one thing for a Myther to try and be the class clown - if you get banned, the give and take evens out and no one's got any complaints to level against you. But to get Matty banned is distinctly uncool. Luckily, I'm pretty certain Matty/Nick have been or will be unbanned and this situation resolved.
Melekor
Your exploits are practically a legend in the community
Grim
Forget Flatline, and Red phoenix Zak is where your money should be at

On other news, Zak appreciation thread addition:

Zak's online myth personality is a force of nature that influenced the culture of every metaserver, forum, and tournament graced by his presence.

I stopped dummying a long time ago. People have veen impersonating me (poorly) for years. I am innocent of most crimes ive been accused of past 2009.

The real culprits are people like pogue, donnie, lso, bunny, and other queermos

Kiek got trolled pretty hard by stone soup, he legitimately thought i aas mange civil and had other original members of civil in my team. He was furious with me when grim outed me as an imposter.

The real mange (mango) was around during this era too, playing in random games oblivious to my trolling. Then sidthegr8 came out of retirement and was driven off of myth by furious/paranoid mythers suspecting him of being me

2008 was really my prime. I created a LOLMWC style dummying ring involving several teams. For example on saints row I had bk, dantski, and liger all swapping accounts in their games. There was a big controversy in another match when i gave an account on some 2 trow team against deer or zxcv, and the result got overturned because of it.

I think I finally got banned from MWC that year for impersonating a team on monkey island, at the same time as paris. He got a 1 week suspension but I got a permanent ban. Its a miracle grim and I are such close friends after that unfair treatment he gave me.

That must have been 2009; I recall being suspended or banned in 06, 09 and 10.

House of cosbys, what a show



Anyways I played for some noob team and dummied a lot in the QR because grim removed Stone Soup from the tournament at the last minute. I'm also responsible for that being the first year with no QR forfeits! I am very proud of that, and it saddens me people don't acknowledge the good I've accomplished.

Then Genx added me to MoC and I played for them up until Armageddon dropped us to the bottom bracket. THOR maxed ghols on shuffle in one of our matches.

sometimes when i think of zak's myth legacy i think of that book/movie one flew over the cuckoos nest and imagine a jack Nicholson rebellious type character while THOR takes the role of the native american silent giant who escapes the ward via smashing a toilet through a window after suffocating the zak character post-lobotomy

Thor isn't Chief, he talks too much. You think Chief is retarded because he doesn't say anything 99% of the time and then he unleashes a golden sentence of complete clarity. More viable choices for this role would be HMP or Verminix.
