No wonder they're buying out Tumblr, it's all part of their plot to eliminate Did You Know Gaming!

edit: oh thanks Foxhack *turns off the X-Files music*

I failed the first rule of the internet: NEVER READ THE COMMENTS IN A YAHOO ARTICLE.

The author of the article is a friend of mine and a really cool person. You should follow her on Twitter.

The comments are at least somewhat justified because the Yahoo repost left out the two best ones, so there's nothing really "dirty" in there any more.

Well, we have more light shed on us, but any guy interested in what's leftover in a game is practically bound to come to TCRF. After all, I found TCRF because I found the Ocarina of Time Debug Rom, and was curious as to how I can use the debug features.

Ugh, they used that ugly doctored screenshot for the hidden Sonic credits, which doesn't look at all like what's really shown in the game.


Which reminds me, somebody should change it in the wiki... EDIT: Done.


EDIT: Also..

A prototype of the first Sonic game displayed this screen when it was loaded up
...What?

I really wish they would mention a lot of the obscure games... oh wait, most of those contain bad words and we know Yahoo doesn't like bad words.

And yet the comments on most of their news posts are full of idiotic, racist bile.

When i read the title i thought they were going to buy and kill off TCRF now. They've already bought Tumblr and Playerscale both of which were supposedly popular.

I doubt a wiki like ours really fits into Yahoo's business model (though given the level of sheer incompetence in their current management, I guess anything could happen).

Well, considering that Yahoo's 'business model' is more along the lines of "holy shit buy companies so we can stay relevant" than anything else, and considering they're willing to buy a company leaking tens of millions a year (tumblr made $12 million through the website itself, yet spent $25 million in upkeep) with hundreds of millions owed to investors, at 1.5 times its valuation, eh - I wouldn't leave anything out of question.

Cutting Room Cieling would be full of nothing(well, maybe a few Nerf darts, but those always get stuck on the fan or something), since gravity isn't reversed yet.

I heard that they are trying to buy Hulu now. What next? They might as well just try and buy everything.

And everything they've bought will go down with them.
