john

[battousai555]

I see nothing wrong with winning johns. It's called being humble. For example, if I won a match with a judgement hammer, what's wrong with saying "I got lucky"?

 

[StripesOrBars]

Only if I can punch you in the face if I win.

Ok but If I win I get to **** your girlfriend.

Or your boyfriend.

Which ever one you have.

 

[Vegard]

This means you can't open your mouth during play, cause everything you say is john's >_>?

Deal, but I only have a dog. That'll do though, right? ^_^

So 3/5 5$ cata rules?

LOL, as long as it isn't a *****.

And deal.

Only everything you say.

 

[Brookman]

No Johns.

 

[NJzFinest]

please

Get these johns out of my face!

 

[StripesOrBars]

LOL.

Sigh, I wish rep was still around.

 

[Brookman]

I wasn't actually asking, it was just a nice way to fit the ten character limit. But I just remembered the best option for that. You win

 

[Witchking_of_Angmar]

<3 phanna. And according to him, JEWZFTW used all of these. lulz

 

[NJzFinest]

lol, hurray for me <.<

 

[GamerGuitarist7]

greatest thread ever.

 

[Lag]

I had myself a laugh there. Most of these things I used to do like three or five years ago. Mouth opened equals a John(s). But now I don't do that...or do I? I still use the good Johns when I play my friends though. Anyways great work. Reminded me of...me a long time ago.

 

[AXE 09]

i get a bunch of those face johns and insult johns ='(

 

[Crooked Crow]

You forgot "my mother didn't hug me this morning."

rofl

"he has so much ****ing range!"
"how the hell does he spike with his NIPPLES?!"

 

[Mama]

Lol. Wow what more can I say? <- (compliment John)

I suppose I use the sportsmanship Johns though. If I feel like I just got wtfpwnt I can't help but say something like "dammit" lol.

 

[marthmaster04]

Lol only john I really use is if my friends are smokin around me, I hate feelin second hand high and smashin. Totally ****s my concentration.

 

[Mike Hawk]

i vote for a shirt if with this list imprinted on it.

 

[Silas06]

it was a good read =D, nice list.

 

[Ouendanation]

My name is Jon... Am I banned from tournaments?

 

[de_gLory^]

sooooooo true

 

[xyouxarexuglyx2]

"You play boring"

The person who said this-- you know who you are.

Loving the Generic Johns.

 

[Banana_Dragon]

While I will admit there are indeed some funny johns on that list and some stuff gave me a good laugh and are too true...

Seriously though, how is "complimenting" your opponent a john?
Really, how is complimenting someone's skill an excuse to your own playstyle?
It's called "respect."
Wouldn't acknowledging the fact that you faced a good or better opponent mean that you can accept your loss and need improvement? How is congratulating someone on their victory being an excuse? I'm sorry, but this is where my logic fails me...

Or suppose one would say "whoa, I didn't see that combo coming."
Wouldn't the person who says this imply that they accept that it's their own fault that they lost and hence, doing the exact opposite of making an excuse/johning?

Really, I don't see anything wrong with congratulating an awesome opponent on his victory. What else are you supposed to say then? "Yeah, I know you won, but this wasn't a good match"? That wouldn't even make any sense!

Ah well, the list was nice for the johns that were actual excuses... And yes, while I did laugh very much at some, others that I can't grasp the logic of pretty much ruined the fun in this thread for me. (along with the huge amount of "OMG FLORIDA OWNZ" "OMG FLORIDA SUX IMA KIK YO BEHIND" off-topic spamming)

 

[hugQ Cortex]

I have some new johns you can add to the list, from someone I know who shall remain anonymous:

-I was holding back (in tourney).
-Wasn't I 2-stocking you in friendlies before the tourney?
-I stopped trying because I picked a high/top tier character and I felt like an *******. (lol?)
-Next time we play I'll go all out.
-I wanted to see where you stood.
-I have much more experience.
-What was the point of me trying if I knew the tourney wasn't going to finish on time?
-I was helping running the tourney.
-*yawn* (only after losing a match)
-KingGerudo has a pretty good Ganon.

 

[Micheloxx]

buddy, here in my country we dont use john that much, but, now that i read this, im gonna use it more often with more thingsXD

Indeed. I don't think some of the sportsman johns and generic johns are actually johns. But hey, the first post hasn't been edited in a year.

 

[h1roshi]

why are you guys dissecting the list about why certain things are listed. or how they arent johns. its just a fun list to look at, not something to take seriously...peace

-hiroshi

 

[inside]

^True, but it's also fun to use em.

 

[Vitamin X]

Moral: be silent. You're pretty much Johning otherwise.

These are nice, thanks for sharing

Total silence is a john, unfortunately.

 

[D20]

The epic john...

"You only won because you used Young Link."

 

[choknater]

there is no escape from johnning if you lose.


phanna, is winning a john?

 

[hungrybox]

Massively agrees with doodah john

My rice could have used more soy sauce today

too much sodium tho

 

[Mikezor]

Crew Johns that have been used before:

If he/she was/wasn't here, then we would have won. -kinda different from yours.
If we had slept more last night, we would have done better.

I'm not saying add them or anything, just sharing what has happened first hand

Edit: ^ Whoops, I john'd

 

[ChronoSquare]

I must say, I've heard the Meta Johns more than all of the other johns combined.

NO JOHNS! appears on like every other post in a WI tournament thread; that is, whenever we're actually talking about playing the game. Lately all we've done is argue.

EDIT: Why the f*** isn't this stickied yet I wonder? (feel free to trout slap my n00b *** if the answer was between pages 2 and 7, w/ 20 posts a page.)

Because everything that I've ever heard anyone say or do during or after a match is listed here. According to the master list here, you've basically johned simply by existing.

Its the ulitmate john.

 

[Luck-NYC/NJ]

LOL @ the doodah john.

The Condescending John:
