Ooooo... :o

The wiki knows all. :shock:

Edit: Text Text Revolution?!

Edit++: never mind, not what I thought it was.

That WOULD be cool, though.

So THAT'S where her name comes from.

P.S. I realize that everybody else probably already knew this, and I'm just now catching on.

I don't know if that's the origin of her name specifically. I'm sure the concept of Mosh Mosh Revolution has been arrived at independently in various forms both before and after its appearance in Megatokyo.

For instance, the phrase was coined in IndyDDR circles to describe playing with one person on each arrow...which was first done in this area in Spring 2002:
http://www.indyddr.com/videos/042102/

I don't remember who called it that on that occasion. It appears to be after it appeared in Megatokyo, but I certainly had never heard of Megatokyo back then. But maybe whoever said it had.

I just need to reiterate the comment that went along with my rating of the previous post:

Pure genius!

Thank you...you definitely made me LOL!

But sadly, I think many people here are too young to really get the humor...or be able to relate to it first hand.

I'm not sure whether this was the origin of her name or not - I seem to recall her saying it was unrelated, but I can't seem to find the applicable post. It might have predated The Great Reset.

I am amused that you have named the event...and I kinda like the name as well. If IndyDDR still had an FAQ, I'd add that to it.

Good idea. We could all have our own sections where we describe it in our own light and...stuff.

-Dan

Or we could just make a general wiki.
