Meet the Staff

Posted on Sun Oct 19, 2008 11:58 am

This is a thread where we pretend that the DS staff is a cohesive and well-organised family-orientated team.

EVERYONE GET IN HERE!

Teh Big Cheese
In the beggining, there was nothing. And drew said " let there be DS ". And DS came to be. He became Dota Strategy's Lord and Master. But don't look for him, for he is not here. drew rules from afar, keeping out of the day-to-day running so he can remain impartial. He leaves his minions to run the forum on his behalf.

NAME: drew

AKA: drew

RANK: Supreme Chancellor

JOB: Creating order out of chaos.

ABOUT: Drew is an urband legend. He does not exist. He is a mere figment of your imagination. Repeat.

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Counting popsicle sticks. Shark-hunting.

CONTACT: You don't contact the drew, the drew contacts you.

QUOTE: "bishi asha bi"

The Odd Couple

drew knew that he would need help to rule his kingdom, so he created Orochi out of his ear wax and made him in his image; giving birth to the first of many lazy rulers. drew knew that Orochi would one day destroy DS, so he created Yukino from his nose hair; creating Dota Strategy's most infamous trap and spammer. Thus creating balance; Orochi would prevent Yukino from spamming the kingdom to the ground and Yukino would prevent Orochi's megalomaniac plans.

NAME: Orochi

AKA: The Lazy Mod(Or Laziest Mod since ALL the mods are lazy)

RANK: Executor

JOB: Banning people. Killing strategies. Publishing strategies. DS projects and activities. Bossing around the staff. Keeping Yukino from destroying the site. Bugging drew.

ABOUT: Orochi can simply be described and referred to as a “spreketicatokpulotot”, just like the term, he doesn’t make any sense as well…or at all. Orochi has been here too long and has been driven insane; he bans and warns people for the silliest reasons and posts insane images when he does. He comes from somewhere vaguely Oriental and talks in CAPS LOCK. You can find him in the Etc forum, which we created to keep Yukino contained. Don't feed, encourage or count on him, coz he'll give you epilepsy.

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Procrastinating. Annoying drew people. Scouring the internet for virgin sacrifices. Gurlz lol.

CONTACT:

First, enter The Room of the Three Gargoyles, then go The Pit of Despair. Enter The Throne Room and into The Swamp. Pass through The Tomb of Ancient Kings and enter the Dungeon. But beware of the temple guards! Go to THE SHRINE OF THE SILVER MONKEY! Assemble the pieces to enter The Treasure room. Find the right key to go up The Observatory where you shall find your prize. The choices are yours and yours alone. Good luck.

Quote: "lolwut."

"HAHAHAHAHA! No."

"Why cram now if you can cram tomorrow?"

*****

NAME: Yukino Silvermaine

AKA: TEH TRAP [as Orochi stated] , Cauducum Sanctus

RANK: Executor , Illuminati

JOB: Close threads. Answer questions. Warn people. Ban people. Remind people that sigs do have a size limit. Move threads. Keep Orochi from running amok. Reply to annoying PMs.

ABOUT: Now this would be pretty complicated, won't it?
Joined for strats. Posted 9 days after she joined. Became pretty active. Started spamming a lot. Got into trouble with Garfield, Kai, and SAWSAW because of Saaya Irie. Founded UBE 2. Fought Orochi on Picture Battles. Headed the Siege of UBE 1. WON THE SIEGE BWAHAHAHA!! Became a mod. Mmm..

No one really knows her gender aside from the mods. Some people label her "the boring Mod", but those people have been paid by Orochi.

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Going to conferences . Go to school, etc etc. Telling other people to work. Work

CONTACT: You don't. You're lucky when you find me.
In any church or religious building, go to the front desk of the office. Look for a female desk officer wearing glasses [other people won't do] and ask this question: "Who crossed the borders that no-one should be able to cross at the ends of antiquity and eternity?"

The desk officer will look at you closely, and you'll notice that her eyes are crimson. She would say nothing; instead, she will gesture that you follow her. Do so. She will lead you down a long corridor with no doors or windows. The walk will tire you, as your body will feel as if it walked for miles. Do not stop even if you are tired. If the desk officer ever leaves your sight, pray that your end would be quick and painless, though the chances of that happening is almost zero.

At the end of the corridor, you shall see a large metallic door. The desk officer is nowhere to be seen. When you look around, you shall discover that you are in front of an old European castle on a barren wasteland. You cannot enter from the front, the door is locked. Walk around the right side of the castle, and you shall see an opening on the wall.

You will arrive on a garden, or what used to be a garden. Wilted plants cover the field. There is nothing to see here, save for a very young girl in white sitting in the middle of the field. Approach her, but she will disappear. She is the one you are looking for.

Continue going through the garden and you shall find a courtyard. Enter the door that you'll see and you'll arrive inside a great hall. Move towards the balcony in the middle. You shall notice the chains sprouting out of something below. When you look down the balcony, you will be stopped by a figure in white. She looks like the girl you saw earlier, albeit older. She will ask: "What is your purpose?". Tell her what you came for here. She shall listen. When you are done, she'll say: "Thank you.. That was fun."

The world will spin. The girl will look like she fell sideways. You shall see the room turn upside down. But nothing is wrong with the world. Then you'll see your body breaking down, your limbs falling off, your insides spilling out. Then you'll realize your head is already chopped off. You have been dissected into 18 pieces of meat.

The girl is not a listed object. She existed long before the 2538 came to be. You have done well to entertain her, but not enough to unchain her.

NAME: quickbrownfox

AKA: that mod

RANK: Imperator

JOB: Cleaning out the refuse people post as Hero Guides/think is a brand-new awesome thread/witty reply, that isn't.

ABOUT: Once upon a time, qbf wasn't a mod. Pulled a few good strings, make some friends, post an acceptable guide. He found something of a niche for himself, he supposes. And all he can say after that is "JUST AS PLANNED" . Not really. But whatever it was, it worked. And now, remember to think to yourself, "why am I posting this?". And he'll be thinking, "why would anyone post this?".

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Plotting world domination, Slowly building my next guide(expect this when the exchange rate is 20 php to a dollar). Sauntering slowly. Generating some cacophony.

CONTACT: I am easily contacted via interpretative dance, or by bribing me with at least $10 equivalent of cash. Or maybe just a PM(feel free to do the former options though). For hero guide pleas, if you really want my attention, I expect it to be a good reason.

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Eating but never getting fat. Boys. Girls. Continuously rejecting proposals from Yukino, failing trying to keep her cousins away from Orochi.

NAME" fwii~

AKA: TEH fwii~

RANK: Praetor

JOB: Locking Treads, Answering questions, Bashing strategies

ABOUT: fwii~ came to DS to make a Magnus guide, forgot about it and made a Syllabear guide. fwii~ is often seen answering the same questions over and over again in the QA and Heroes board or making some criticisms on the newly approved strategies. One day the mods, needed help in spamming "http://www.dotastrategy.com/forum/searchform.php" managing the forums so they offered fwii~ along with Unholy and Kai with around 10000 DS gold (which wasn't really worth much) to join the staff.

NAME : `UnholY`

AKA : "Terror of Death"

RANK : Praetor

Powarz JOB : Ability to use secret weapons like, Thread Locker , and the mysterious, Data Drain (a very special weapon rumored to be a weapon of full destruction, drains and destroys the data of strategies, hero ideas, and item ideas)

ABOUT : `UnholY` lived in a world where everything was corrupted by PKers. `UnholY` was known as the PKKer(PK killer), the "Terror of Death" . He once rebelled against the mighty Primarchs and confronted Orochi, the lazy.

Orochi : So we have met sights again, the so called "Terror of Death"
`UnholY` : I came here, to finally end my scores with you. RAAAGH!
Orochi : Do you really believe that these kinds of attacks can even touch me?
`UnholY` : OF COURSE! You are too lazy to dodge them!
Orochi : NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
*`UnholY` blinks his eye in a millisecond*
Orochi : You let your guard down. Now, it is my turn! IMBA MOD POOOOWAAAAAAARZ! RAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!

*dangling sound effects, shuhodshdufsodfskhoerunmlck*
`UnholY` : My..... D--d-dat--data.. is- dr-ai-n-in-drain-ing... Is th--is... the... end.?
`UnholY`, the "Terror of Death", has lost the fight, and due to data drain, he was reduced to level 1.

drew and his mighty Primarchs were impressed by his valiant attempts for change and made him one of the first three 'Epitaphs' along with fwii~ and kaizer9. Rumor exists taht only their powarz are next to the dreaded Primarchs .

Now, the "Terror of Death", `UnholY` though forced to serve under his former enemies, plots to overthrow his lazy nemesis, Orochi, and his other Primarch allies.

OTHER ACTIVITIES : Leveling up. Killing monsters. Using my favorite skills and weapons, Data Drain and Thread Locker.

CONTACT : First, try getting a Lit Honeysuckle Twin Blade to give to me to try convince me to even talk to you. Upgrade it to +4. +5 would have better chances of me talking to you. You can find the certain Twin Blade in the Area Words, Data - Passing Grim's Stare . You should defeat the boss in that Area. Finish the boss with a Rengeki called Chaotic Strike , which can only be used by using a Lit Honeysuckle Twin Blade, which is impossible to get except by defeating the Area Boss with a Chaotic Strike Rengeki with a Lit Honeysuckle Twin Blade, which is impossible to get except by defeating the Area Boss with a Chaotic Strike Rengeki with a Lit Honeysuckle Twin Blade, which is impossible to get except by defeating the Area Boss with a Chaotic Strike Rengeki with a Lit Honeysuckle Twin Blade, which is impossible to get except by defeating the Area Boss with a Chaotic Strike Rengeki with a Lit Honeysuckle Twin Blade, which is impossible to get except by....

NAME: dohyun99

AKA: do/dohyun(? dont really have a nickname lol)

RANK: Praetor

JOB: Supporting people...

ABOUT: dohyun99 joined DS sometime in August to become a better Dota player. After browsing through many guides, he came across an awesome Techies guide made by one of the staff members. After asking numerous ridiculous and non-sense questions in the comment section, dohyun99 decided to be more active in the forums. In early 2008, dohyun99 was enjoying his time with Pinky and mv20vm in DS when Orochi suddenly jumped up and bribed him and his fellow friends with lollipops to join the DS staff.

They were victimized! And now they are slaves to anyone with colored names that are red.

OTHER ACTIVITES: Playing games, drums (african drums included), alto saxophone, piano. Reading, attempting to study but ending up procrastinating, taking art lessons. School, work, play.

Contact: A PM would be nice.

Quote: "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain"

The Gerbils
Same story with the bunnies, except they were made from Hamsters and Radishes. These particular experiments became Orochi's personal minions.

Name: Pinky Ishkafel

AKA: Pinky

Rank: Praetor

Job: Orochi's minion Helping people with guides, Closing threads.

About:

Pinky came into this world on August 2007. Previously made a dummy account (which is still available now) to quickly make an ultra noob dark seer guide with "oh God this guide sure kicks ass" thoughts in his mind. In early 2008, Pinky, along with two other victims (for privacy, to avoid child molestation, let's just call them Rose and Mary) were enjoying their times in DS when Orochi, who was already lurking to prey them, suddenly jumped up and bribed them with lollipop to join DS staff.

Pinky loves cute things, and his favorite activity is digging his nose like this

and suddenly he realizes the power of his modship that sources from his nostrils.

Other jobs:
Making games, studying, doing researches.

Contact:
These days, you can find him in Route 29 running around with wild LV5 rattata (of course while nosepicking). Just get your pokeballs ready. Else PM me.

NAME: Shimrra_3

AKA: The Techiemeister, Orochi's Minion Numero Uno

RANK: Praetor

JOB: Making Strategies. Killing Strategies. Killing Threads.

ABOUT: Shimrra_3 came to DS in December 2006, made a terrible SA guide which we will never speak of again, and rose to power by asking for trouble. He enjoys reading every single guide put in front of him, and will destroy people commenting on guides unless they have actually read the guides. Shim despises 'opinion threads', because they are seemingly useless, are a prime source of flame wars, and inevitably mean more work for him.

If you can say, with a straight face, that asking to be on the staff wasn't asking for trouble, then I take it back. Half the people on DS act like fourth-graders with a book of curse words!

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Getting other people to improve their strategies. Warning or Banning people who I don't like.

CONTACT: Private Message on DS, whisper on the Lordaeron battle.net server.

"You didn't see ANYTHING"

"Nuclear Launch Detected"

The New Guy
A guy in gold once stumbled onto unchartered territory. Rather than to waste bullets on him, the lazy rulers turned him blue. Orochi is currently prepping him to be his next new minion.

NAME: Amplirage

AKA: Amp

RANK: Praetor

JOB: Featured Guide of The Month Organizer, Being a critic, helping people with guides, writing long(and painful) guides, writing my story in the Fan-Fic section, doing graphic requests and graphic editing, closing useless threads, reminding people of the search tool, moderating other forums..

ABOUT:

Amp was created in the site early in 2007(or late 2006) to see the strategies after catching a glimse of them from the google search. He started reading, gathering knowledge but never posted. He only ever posted in the graphics forum(very few times) as there was where he was at home. He was very inactive for a long time until it dawned on him to try creating his own guides. He then created 2 useless guides. The first one being of the old Naix. We never saw it again. The second was of Medusa(better of the worst) but unfortunately he attached the images with the [img] tags. Later on, he continued gathering knowledge and started posting. He strived to be one of the best behaved members and mantain the forum as a peaceful place for discussions, even as a normal member. Later on He applied to be a Praetor member but obviously he was not good enough or experienced enough yet.. He was promoted to a VIP a few months after he posted in my Yurnero guide that made quite an impressive impression on members. Finally, by some twist of fate he ended up becoming a staff member. After numerous ideas and suggestions he was finally given powers and responsibilities such as the Featured Guide of The Month Competition.

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Archery, Playing the Piano, Reading, Swimming, Playing DotA.

CONTACT:

The 5 easy steps to Contacting Amp:

1) Fly to Mars
2) Hover exactly 12.3657 cm from the harsh martian ground.
3) Pinch your nose and balance on one toe while touching your head with your other foot.
4) With the other hand, drink a bottle of coke.
5) Swallow 10 pieces of mentos at one go.

Or you could PM me on DS at your own risk..

ABOUT: Irish/NZ/Misc Other cross living on the big hot island south of.. well i guess most of Indonesia... how about we call it Australia.
Got himself a fancy blue name when somebody decided that he could be a part of the staff despite what someone else thinks, anyway that somebody else was fed to an old VCR which seems to eat everything you put in it and his name turned blue overnight.

OTHER ACTIVITIES: Lying, that's fun.. Being mean, I make hero ideas but then submit them without discussions or stories, as a result they are locked away hidden in the realm of all the bad hero ideas where they are doomed to die a slow and painful death. currently I am adding stories and discussion ^_^ hint hint.
Also runner of Clan ZOMP which would be our unofficial DS Clan on Battle.Net

CONTACT: I do say Percy, Know what's funny? Commoners hahahaha.
serious guys, any commoner that sends me a PM will be killed... with death
unless you plan on getting a reply filled with sarcasm or I take decent interest.
