Dark Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 [quote name='PikaPerson01' timestamp='1301931794' post='5113849'] The whole "reading this for the first time and saying the first thing that pops into your mind" approach is as amateurish as the fics you're trying to lampoon. Just sayin'. [/quote] Nobody said we were expert critics, now did they? We don't care how amateurish you (or anybody else, for that matter) think we are, because we know we suck at reviewing things. We are dicking around and having fun, and I'm extremely shocked you are taking this thread [i]that[/i] seriously. We give some criticism, sure, but this isn't half as serious as you make it out to be, dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is two guys dicking around, rarely giving criticism. If you want to treat us like we're serious, go right ahead, but don't expect legitimate responses to your comments because we know we're not serious, and I think you're the only one around here who thinks we are.

Catterjune Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 For someone who's not taking this seriously you sure do get really damn defensive when people point out you're amateurish attempt at humor. Rarity's response however completely sold the "don't care" attitude that you claim you have. tl;dr - You're taking it much more seriously then the people you're accusing.

fenrir Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 ^Dark's just being a dick. It's in his nature. While he seems like he's getting defensive, he really isn't. But yeah, we mostly don't care when we actually record this stuff. Because it's like, 1 am. My posts afterward are actually serious and you se me actually criticizing the fics (to varying degrees), mainly because I'm awake and I'm not recording. BASICALLY, our posts are going to have more critique than our recordings. At least mine are. Around the end and during the second recording, we were much more serious on our critique. (there was hardly any, if any, comedy. and im not talking about the recordings in general- ZING.) Really if you want proper critique/comedy, go to Foe Fiction. It's infinitely better than the crap we have. If you want to browse YCM while listening to two idiots dicking around, then we have what you want.

Fusion X. Denver Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Eh, I loled. Even if all these different fanfic review threads are getting repetitive, at least you two are doing a different approach enough to make me disregard that fact and enjoy your content.

We know we suck at trying to be funny, and we know we suck at adequately reviewing a fanfiction, but we are just two guys dicking around. Rarity is trying to act as if this is serious so I'll be convinced to actually continue this whenever we're on Skype together. tl;dr - You are misinterpretting our posts entirely.

Dark Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 From episode one to three, the fanfictions we've been reviewing have gotten progressively better in terms of story (kind of) and grammar. We want to mix it up sometime soon with another Pichu-esque fanfiction, because we can't dick around as much if we are reading something that could potentially be good. If we can't pick something random to bash on, there is no point. It's just us reading and praising a fanfiction. Imagine Crab doing a Foe Fiction on something that has very few mistakes and story gaps. It would suck pretty badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenrir Posted April 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 To be fair the most we can b**** about is the plot, in fact the one we're looking at right now is well written, it's just stupid as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catterjune Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Listening to the third one, 'cause I have a half hour to waste. "YCM-Maker" I call it that too. "Oddly enough, half of the site doesn't even like to play the game." That sounds like a huge over statement. [quote]"I told you I did, remember?" a female voice responded. "Remember? I listen to what you say?" Minato asked himself.[/quote] Girl - "I told you, remember?" Boy - "If I 'remembered' it would imply that I ever listened to anything you said though I clearly do not listen to anything you say." *audience applause* --- Eh, I don't come onto YCM expecting really any quality, so congrats on meeting my expectations.

Catterjune Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 "Pika! You never say anything nice about these reviews! How come you bother reading it as opposed to sucking Dark's left nut as advised?" --- The only reason I listen to this is because I don't have time to read things, but having it on as ambient noise in the background is a-okay. ... Part 3-2 is the same thing as the Pichu thing, isn't it? uhh... Pokemon review thing... yeah. I'll read Phantom Roxas's thing about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
