The following “60 Minutes” show recently aired in New Zealand:
Here, you can see Brennan Martin, who had previously scored 201 (SD16) on one of Paul Coojiman’s tests, interviewed by the TV station about his “180+ Challenge”. Running up to the show, Brennan solicited bets of US$100 against his achieving an IQ score of 180+ on the Cattell Culture Fair Intelligence Test (CFIT).
Brennan completed the test in record time (15 minutes) without a single mistake. The testing session you see on the show seems to be a second shot at the test staged for the benefit of the camera, and so the point where Brennan bizarrely seems to be answering more than one question at a time may be as a result of memorizing some answers from the first testing session.
However, there are nevertheless some strange anomalies. When Brennan is put on the spot by the TV producers to take another test without advance warning, he is strangely reluctant to do so. The explanation proffered by Brennan is that he was very tired.
The other test he was asked to take, the Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices (RAPM) is very similar to the CFIT – both consist entirely of visual pattern-recognition type questions. After some persuasion, Brennan capitulated and agreed to take the RAPM for the TV show.
Despite Brennan’s speedy and accurate performance on the 49 questions that comprise the CFIT, the 36 questions of the RAPM seemed to present much more of a challenge. He spent an hour labouring over the test, and did not score even close to every question correctly. In fact, he failed to even make the top 2% cut-off point for qualification in Mensa.
Even the experts seemed divided as to why the huge discrepancy in scores. Professor Flynn mentions on the show that there can be a variance in IQ scores from one test to another. While it is very possible for there to be a discrepancy between scores on different tests, as this article discusses, it is difficult to support the idea that the discrepancy could be 50+ points between two tests which are very similar in nature. The Mensa psychologist on the show comments that she would not have expected such a wide variance in scores.
The TV presenter asks Brennan outright if he cheated on the CFIT, something which he strongly denies. These type of tests are only sold to licensed psychologists and are normally kept under lock and key. Nevertheless, where there is a will, there is a way.
So, I will leave readers to draw their own conclusions. Do you think it is possible Brennan cheated, or is he beyond doubt one of the smartest people alive?
Brennan did nothing on the show to convince me that he’s one of the smartest people alive. HumanChemistry101 would categorize him with the IQ showboaters, but I don’t even think he’s in the same league they are. At least Chris Langan gives interesting answers to questions in his video, and he has that Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe paper. Marilyn vos Savant likewise appears intelligent and writes books and a weekly column in Parade magazine.
Brennan Martin on the other hand appears to have no other passions hobbies or interests outside of IQ tests. I guess were supposed to think he’s smart because he can write “e=mc squared” on glass; I think I saw Jack Black do that in School of Rock when he was fake teaching. Brennan appears to be the least intelligent person in the video. Professor Flynn has ideas, theories, and gives intriguing answers to questions. The most provocative thing Brennan says is the reason he hasn’t found a girlfriend in the high IQ societies is because at the very highest levels there aren’t many women. I think I could pick a girl at random (her IQ should be about half what Brennan claims his is) pay her a couple hundred dollars to tell brennan how smart he is I’ll bet he proposes marriage at the end of the date.
There could be a good reason why there are few women in the most selective high IQ societies, and it has nothing to do with our IQ.
Or then again, perhaps it does. 🙂
Posted by Michael Chew in the Elateneos Forum.
Brennan,
The 1st test took 15 minutes and you were tired? You state below that you knew about the 2nd test a week before and yet you seemed to have had a scheduling problem for the 2nd test?
The untimed nature of the test allows you to check your answers with unlimited time to do this, so please don’t tell me that it has no impact on your score outcome.
Let me put it this way (it seems to escape you and that is the saddest part). Your score does not make psychometric sense at all since you have in excess of A 3SD difference. I sat for the timed version of the ravens (40 minutes). It’s not that hard and had a score of 35/36. I am no where near 4SD ( I am pretty sure of that although I have only sat for 2 standardized tests). I had 40 minutes and pretty much made almost no mistakes. You took more than an hour.
Let me list a few possibilities that could explain your score discrepancy of 50 points (not in any order of possibility);
1. Raven & Court the test developers for the RAPM got their stuff wrong and the RAPM isn’t actually measuring g as compared to the Cattell scales – this possibility of course is next to zero as the RAPM is just about the most cited test in the field of research (maybe second only to the WAIS) and is used also for Scholastic, Vocational and Research settings. I do concede though that I have some doubts with the 1992/1993 standardization is Dumfries and Des Moines (please refer to this – http://www.cogn-iq.org/?p=407 ), but I digress.
2. The Cattell scales at the ceiling of the raw scores isn’t an equivalent IQ score of 180, so maybe reconcilable between the scores of the 2 tests – there are some who estimate that since the CFIT has 50 questions to be answered in 12.5 minutes (15 seconds per question), consequently the CFIT taps more into processing speed and inspection time rather than just g. There are numerous studies (Rindermann, Sheppard, Jensen, Kyllonen) who can show only modest correlations between speed of processing and g (< 0.3 and often much lower). I concede though that I have not come across any paper which states this explicitly about the Cattell Culture Fair Intelligence test (that the test scores of testees load on processing speed mainly).
3. You may be autistic – there are numerous studies done (Hayashi, Sven Bolte) of which the score discrepency between the Wechsler and Ravens is shown to be up to 30 IQ points (higher on the ravens). However notwithstanding this, the Cattell & Ravens do have a convergent validity of about 0.7 and are both culture fair, so I estimate that a score discrepancy even for autistics between the Cattell and Ravens would be less than 30 points. But then again we are talking about a score discrepancy of 50 points here, not 30.
4. Test Anxiety (for the Ravens) – I find this explanation to be weak because after pretty much acing the Cattell ** I mean C'mon, we're talking about an IQ 5SD above the norm**, one should feel supremely confident no matter what the next test test is after a validation of a 5SD IQ? And since the Ravens is also a culture fair test liberally timed what is there to be anxious about? If the test is untimed, the test anxiety factor would have pretty much dissipated after a few minutes into the test knowing that you can check your answers and that there is no time limit.
5. You cheated on the Cattell scales.
Let me ask you point blank;
A. You pretty much advertised the fact …………a challenge if you like with a wager of the standard US$100 to pretty much the whole HIQ community and the world at large that you would ace the cattell test.
Q. What made you so confident that you would hit the ceiling?
I mean there are several HIQ subjects out there like Chris Langan, Kim Ung-yong, and even Evangelos, would never do what you did. These guys have astronomical IQs and pretty much discovered their IQs without knowing before hand that they were going to ace any test and also would never send out a challenge, because you know why? They know that no matter how smart they are, there is always the off chance that on the day itself (due to the some tests being highly speeded) they could and sometime actually do fall "short"……………but not you………….it was almost a "slam-dunk" for you it seems.
B. Tiredness –
Q. You took a 15 minutes test of which you knew that there would be a second. You couldn’t reschedule even though you knew about this a week ago and didn’t pop the question (about taking the test the next day) before the actual test day? If you were on the verge of sleep as you say (below) after the 15-minute ace-performance, then you must have been tired already even before the Cattell Test. So how did you hit the ceiling on the Cattell with all that tiredness?
C. In the interview you stated that you hit the ceiling on all the IQ tests you sat for.
Q. which other standardized IQ test have you sat for, of which you hit the ceiling?
D. What was your final score on the Ravens and how many mistakes did you make?
Brennan don’t insult us any further. First you come up with this show-boating BS and in the process crashed with the Ravens. Now you come up with “tiredness”,
What do you take us for? Fools?
Regards,
Michael Chew
H.B. – I saw that Michael had also posted this in the IQ Nexus forum. Brennan has participated in the thread after Michael’s message, but has not answered any of Michael’s questions, nor addressed any of the various points he raised.
It seems that at least one society president is not amused – take a look at the Members lists of Ingenium, Logiq and Uniq Society.
That particular society president seems just as eager to boast his own IQ as B.M. Everything he does is a projection of his ego. “IQ showboater” is a fitting term for both of them.
I agree with everything you said except for probable IQ on the Raven. A 2007 study with U.T. Ontario students which I came across shows just how high a score of 35 on the 40-minute Raven might be:
N=142
WAIS-III IQ 126.85 (13.92) 98-155
RPM 25.3 (4.33) 13-35
Don’t sell yourself short.
Yes, I agree about “showboater”, but the particular society president got some mad talents.
Yes, I gonna buy his poetry book and CD =)
I’m not so sure about the “showboater” bit, at least not compared to certain people I’ve seen around the Web! I have a lot of respect for Martin. In fact, I rather regard him as something of a kindred spirit.
Martin is the real deal and has proven himself many times over on both standardized and non-standardized tests. As for the book and CD, I’m hoping to get my copies soon.
MB
Evangelos has also removed Brennan from HELLIQ.
As a person whom received many zingers from Brennan , I say it is time for a few of us to back off and let him live with himself In the end Brennan will learn, that extrardinary claims require extrardinary proof. I.e. this is a truism which ties one to one in this situation.
I wish Brennan well and I hope he learns from his mistake.
I.e. even if he was as smart as he claimed, there is the datum that genius or superb ability does NOT translate into happiness or good fortune.
I have this
Click to access BeckwithGraviton.pdf
No one except a few specialists give a damn. This is par for the course.
And even if Brennan were as smart as what he claimed, he would find that purported genius adds NOTHING to personal happiness.
Andrew Beckwith, PhD
Brennan will have to live with himself. I doubt any punishment will be more severe than what he will think privately as to his down fall
Brennan collected on a bet made in IHIQS and then refused to give back the money after this video was aired
his explanations are pretty lame; he was tired. so tired that his IQ dropped 50 points?
Besides he talks to aliens and spirits daily (see his multiple websites) so maybe he got a spirit to help him on the first tests and no help on the second
I cannot help but to acknowledge he has brass balls, he still mantains his innocence despite the universal rejection of his explanations.
Eros from IHIQS
The president of Logiq is the real deal, and I’ve never felt that he was showboating. Mr Lithner is a like the Enterprise, Brennan is the Titanic.
A reputation is a very fragile thing. IMO, I am in the firelist but no on really knows me there now, I pretty much keep to myself. Eros what you said about what happened to Brennan as to this 60 minute business in the IHIQS is in some respects parallel to how I was for a time made persona non grata in the *IHIQS. I.e. no way I will return to the IHIQS since I really am not wanted there.
Brennan is in the position where he has to either stay or leave a number of places he has been in.
I do not think your IHIQS would ever allow me back even if I applied for the DF there.
I.e. I know when a welcome is overstayed, for whatver the reason.
I hope Brennan realizes it is time to move on. Doing so will give him opportunities he does not see now. Just as I had to when I was told to leave theat IHIQS. Ie. gone, forgotten and looking for other places to hang a hat.
I wish him luck and enough common sense to let his inner muse guide him as to how to get timing as to where to go next
Andy
Brennan aside…
not wanted in IHIQS by who Andy?
I know you had your problems with Nathan and a member (who is no longer a member btw)
I think most of us will welcome you back gladly but that is for you to decide and try to come back
Some times it is just best to pink oneself up from the ground and walk away.
Just as I did from the IHIQS. Staying / haning around would have lead to me being despised, dissed, and treated as a jerk. Going away as I did managed to salvage dignity on both sides.
I hope Brennan is man enough to in this situation to do the same sort of thing. Just go away and try something else.
Well, Luis, if you can give a poll in the IHIQS, as to me dropping my hat there, do it.
I have long memories.
But until I know I am allowed back, it is best to not tempt the Gods.
will do mate
poll posted yesterday (27 april) at 10:56 pm
results so far (10:55 am)
10 yes
2 no
question: Should Andrew Beckwith’s Membership be Reinstated?
so there you go
I dont know how big a sample you want but by experience people who were going to vote have already.
Then the next step should be to have you approach Ade, the admin of Nathan of the IHIQS whom can contact me at rwill9955g@yaoo.com.
Ade can then determine if there are any grounds to re instate me.
Hey Andy, 1 no just shifted to yes
making the poll
12 – yes
1 – no
but, mate, if you want to come back, do some leg work! I was glad to do the poll for you so you could see that whatever reason you had to leave IHIQS was not that general population rejected you
If you miss us just go trough the normal channels or send a mail to nathan or ade; I´m sure oyu can make it back if you want to
best
luis
I will send an e mail to Ade. Send me his e mail.

See all comments on this post here.
It is up to him. I.e. if they do not want me back I do not go back, but that is the actual message
I doubt I would be taken very seriously, but no one really does. I am an old no account.
Andy
Sent again to
membership@highiqsociety.org
MB says on his website that he reached a score of 201 on the Female Intelligence Test by PC.
http://unigeg.weebly.com/universal.html
That test was available for download at the very beginning a few years back, and I strongly suspect MB had downloaded it back then and still had it when he took it officially.
Apart from that, I have heard that women thought it was ridiculously easy and even offensive (for being too easy), and I can’t imagine it has that ceiling. Maybe it has been changed a bit, but the ceiling is still way exaggerated I think. Has anyone here seen that test?
In my opinion, he is laughing at us all behind the scenes.
No response. Brennan and I talked about KidAlpha. I.e.
Brennan has access to the IHIQS DF and he will try to track KidAlpha down
*** THE IDENTITY GROUP ***
KidAlpha is allegding I am Brennan Martin, and we two are also Quinn Jackson.
???
http://kid-alpha.tumblr.com/post/3119751545
yeah kid alpha said something like that, vic and I told him that was not the case
brennan has been real quiet in ihiqs, at least his is reading the posts or maybe he is engaged in some intergalactical conversation with some other dimension beings
anyway, be patient andy a reply might take some time to come back
Well, it’s currently at 17-3 (really 18-2 when you factor in the switch-over) in favour of Andy’s return. Andy, Ade is no longer an admin at IHIQS. He hasn’t been one for quite some time. The only admins I know of currently are Nathan, Laura, and Bill (bjsjr).
You’re only way back in is through one of them.
I must say it’s really unfortunate that some schmuck has decided to play the identity game centered around you, Andy. I decided it’s best to ignore him and not worry about it.
I guess I will have to send an e mail to Nathan, which I do not want to do. I will ask to read the DF but not post there. Reading it would be enough. I would treat it the same way I treat Facebook.
Brennan Martin is a cheat.
He is being removed from more and more high IQ societies because of this. Perhaps the most prestigious of those he gained entry to through cheating, Prometheus, has yet to expel him, but the ball is rolling and it probably won’t be long now.
My, isn’t this a howling atmosphere we have here. Allow modest me to jump right in with some truth. Namely, I have left certain societies’ at my own request. I have not been “expelled” like a certain anonymous blog somewhere has surmised. I chose to leave.
To Mr. Patrick Seagrave (camp name – Patrick Starr roomie?):
The manner behind the general tone of the show is intended as a lighthearted and comedic commentary –albeit behind the 60 Minutes angle–, in line with my prior profession as a gifted stand-up comedian. It is done differently than most shows you see about “genius”. Intentionally so.
I have interests. Many technical and varied. But most you will never know about. But I very well assure you, I had casually conveyed several tidbits in the extended interview that did not make it to air; it was beyond the scope of the commentary.
For reasons of security and confidentiality contracts I am increasingly involved with (read: ‘non-disclosure’), I am FORBIDDEN to reveal any REAL work or “in the black” activities to anyone! (As much as it pains me not to be able to serve it to you on a platter and sprinkle it with cherries.) However, a typical member of the audience would not be able to understand it in any appreciable way even if they had that opportunity. No modesty necessary. It is incommunicable to the public. The bell curve comes into play here. Know where we all stand.
– Brennan Martin
Brennan… you voluntarily leaving IQ societies?
really? you create them by the dozen just so you can list them in your vanity profile!
Face the music mate, the bell curve does come into play here… but according to the ravens test you are not on the exceptional end of it.
So keep on doing your ultra secret work and your outstanding comedy work (both of which shall remain proofless for obvious reasons) I´ll even give you a tip mate…. People doing secret work dont ussually make public that they do secret work… it´s part of the whole “secret” thing.
Anyway, you are a cheat and was proven so in national tv
Brennan,
I think you’ve got a lot of nerve showing up here and continually trying to maintain all your ludicrous claims in spite of having been revealed as a cheat. You collected on a bet regarding on your CFIT score which the 60 minutes program has revealed to be dubious. You’ve since tried to sell your old sun glasses on the Internet for $200.00, dubbing them as the sun glasses worn by the Smartest Man in The World on that very same program.
Also, while you may have left some IQ societies on your own free will, the fact is I and anyone else at IQ Nexus know that your membership at both IIS and EpiQ were terminated because of the suspicions and doubts cast not only on your CFIT score, but the circumstances surrounding your top score on Coojman’s FIT and the dubious manner in which you’ve obtained said score.
Quite frankly, Brennan, you sicken me. You’ve succeeded into making the entire high IQ community look like a joke because of your behaviour. You were quiet for some now and I’m surprised you decided to come out now and continue with your same old tired and rather weak excuses. You’d have done well to simply remain silent.
Andy,
Timothy Chilman was allowed to unleash his wrath for 7 months before finally being kicked. According to Nathan, Tim didn’t approach him and ask to be reinstated, but instead purchased a brand new membership under a pseudonym. Still, upon registering for the forums, he made no secret as to who he was and proceeded to wreak havoc from day 1.
He sent PTs to me, Luis, Ade, and a number of others in an attempt to lure us into a spat with him in the forums.
My point is, if Nathan could still allow him to stay for so long after all that, then I see no reason why he wouldn’t allow you to rejoin if you asked him yourself. Besides, you have the very thing Tim claimed to have, but didn’t. You have the support of the general membership. If Nathan tries to be difficult you can hold the poll results over his head. It currently sits at 18-3 in favour of reinstatement and it’s set to close after midnight tonight. I think you’ve pretty much won this poll.

I already know what will happen. NOTHING.
Nathan has already made up his mind.
Enough said.

Hey Andy… we´ll be glad to have you back dont be so sensitive about it, I sometimes answer an email 2 or 3 days after i get it
have fun in your trip you ´ll probably have an answer when you come back you dont have to be whiny about it I´m sure you ll get one
btw have you tried the way victor said?
just do the test again, pay your due and come back in… that is automatic!
if it about the money you could ropbably ask later for a refund
Tim made it back that way 2 or 3 times if you dont want to wait just pay a 1 year membership and you ll be in in a jiff
Yeah, Andy. What Eros said.
I am already in the system. I merely have to be given a IHIQS DF pass word.

Andy, we don’t have you in our system anymore so you’ll need to create a new account if you want to come back. I have no problems with you returning, however.
That was NATHAN. His call.
I have to sign in for a new DF pass word.
“Nathan never deleted me from the membership. He did

Well, isn’t that something. Anyway, I’m glad you’re back there. We’ve already interacted in the forums so all is good. Have a safe and pleasant trip.
Becky, you go from saying IHIQS would never have you back and you know when you have overstayed your welcome, to rejoining. Now you’re back at IHIQS, I think you can look forward to being despised, dissed, and treated as a jerk a great deal. If you search on “rwill9955,” you’ll see all the nasty things people said about you after you were kicked out. If you search on “rsole9955,” you’ll see all the nasty things I said about you. You were comprehensively rejected by the general population.
It was cool that you mentioned Ade. He ceased to be an admin because he was also widely disliked. You two should start a club.
Eros: Becky was deeply unpopular. He had a reputation for getting into spats, and often not with me. He also had a reputation for bullying new members. He once did a poll on his popularity in a thread called “Rwill9955 guilty of being Andrew Beckwith” or similar, and he lost.
Vanquished: You say “it’s really unfortunate that some schmuck has decided to play the identity game,” but do you not remember doing that exact thing with me and rsole9955 at the World Intelligence Network?
You say I sent private messages to yo shitty ass self, Eros the fat bastard, and Ade in an attempt to lure you into spats. Did this not come to pass? Dozens of times in the case of you and Eros?
I had the support of most members: there was a poll of my popularity which stood 14-2 in my favor when I left. The margin of victory was greater than the margin of error: MOST PEOPLE LIKED ME.
The way you go on about me, you obviously have a thing about me. As SewerRanger said, you regard me as a demi-god.
Doesn’t anyone think it’s funny that the number of votes in a poll can decrease? I don’t see how that can happen.
Tiny!!!!long time no read
I have not missed you nor your egotistical rants!
How have you been? I really dont care, but it´s only polite to ask
Still obsessed with IHIQs uh? so sad! you were always the guy outside looking in and you still are!
Andy is in and you, out, funny how that worked out uh?
Anyway, I leave yu these crumbs for you to feed on your obsession; I´m sure you will come back with some lame ass post as you always did
best! (no, not really)
Eros
Dear, oh dear. You call me Tiny but you never convincingly said how I was tiny. You certainly aren’t talking about my intellect, which has been praised by many (including Vanquished). You aren’t talking about the old Mighty Rod of Thunder, as you have no idea how really quite large it is.
You haven’t missed me because you never stopped talking about me.
I’m not obsessed with IHIQS. I’m obsessed with ME!ME!ME! I found this page because I was googling my own name.
True, Becky is an IHIQS member and I’m not, but he’s acting all nicey nicey, so he can’t be enjoying himself much. He could do with a BJ, but he doesn’t do oral sex.
I never did lame ass posts. There are six IHIQS thread comprising nothing but me and people speaking to or about me: Dearest Nathan, World Intelligence Network, Email from KnightofWands, Berty Dastard, Pubic hair removal (or whatever) and Do you believe in reincarnation? These threads all got at least a thousand views. Those people came to see me, and it wasn’t because I was doing lame ass posts. No other IHIQS member ever had such an effect. Truly, I am great.
“Those people came to see me”
people love a freak show
bye now tiny
Eros:
I don’t think I got all those views because people like a freak show. After two months, a poll showed that most people liked me, and I got a lot of praise.
You say “bye.” After I was terminated from IHIQS, Vanquished said goodbye to me through IHIQS (messages were emailed to me), email (twice), and Facebook. How many times will you bid me farewell?
Becky:
A penchant for blow jobs is hardly a problem.
You say I’m a “has been.” Are you saying that my prime was when I defeated you so often chez IHIQS in 2004?
As for performance, I was an IHIQS member for seven months. There were six IHIQS threads that revolved around me and people started another six about me. There were four polls about me. I did a lot of great writing which impressed people. I got tons of praise, unlike you. That’s a good performance. Do people notice you so much?
And have you searched on “rwill955” and “rsole9955” to see what people said about you behind your back? It would demonstrate how popular you are: not at all.
One other thing , TIMMY.
Try getting on the fire_list. You would last for about half a day.
Comments with lewd language deleted. Really, gentlemen!
Tim, I know, is just being Tim, as usual.
Andrew, are you really a member of Prometheus? Are you as rude as this on the Fire List?
Becky:
So you say I have sexual hang-ups, when you’re the one WHOSE TONGUE DOES NOT CARESS THE YONI OF HIS MISSUS. You say my performance was poor, yet I’ve made clear that it was in fact rather good, and miles better than yours. You quote Shakespeare, attributing the quote to “Mac Beath” when actually it came from Hamlet. And the upshot of this is that *I’m* retarded. I’m not sure that follows.
I wouldn’t say I had a messiah syndrome, but I do think I’m very, very good.
I can only guess what this fire_list is exactly. You say I wouldn’t last a day, but I think you know better.
After my most recent termination from IHIQS, people called me a a poisonous (thrice), disruptive (twice), trogloditic, annoying, uninteresting, boorish, mean spirited, vindictive, self righteous, narcissistic, bitter, attention-seeking, egotistical, ruthless, empathy-lacking, megalomaniac, grandiose, nefarious, hateful, mad, bestial, bullying troll (thrice). I’m really quite bad.
Remember the IHIQS thread Sarariman versus Sarariman, where I took on over a dozen people, and triumphed? You made repeated, awe-stricken references to the episode. Of all the thousands of posts you excreted, my favorite was the one where you said, “Timmie SCUM! SCUMBAG! He makes me want to VOMIT! He dirties my hands! He’s a discrace [sic] to the U.K.!”
Do you remember how much I hurt you?
Mental cripples like you, TIMMY should be seen but not heard
Timmy, you are showing extreme signs of delusional thinking
I can get much ruder than this on the Fire_list.
If Timmy warrants it, I can ramp it up enormously.
I prefer not to.
I’m hardly a mental cripple, as demonstrated by all the IHIQS threads I dominated and all the debates I won and all the stuff I wrote and all the praise I received (whoa! anaphora! http://www.angelfire.com/art/archictecture/rhetoric.htm ! and I’m a mental cripple!).
Even if you ramped it up, you’d lose. You used to get into spats with me, lose, and then complain of the brutality of my treatment of you. Remember the post that started “Gentlemen” that you did after I was suspended for a month?
I remind you of Sarariman versus Sarariman. You said my spatting had impressed you.
TIMMY
You fled to THAILAND, did you not ?
Why ?
Did one of your love objects in the UK
humiliate you ?
POOR THING. LOSER.
And yes YOU ARE a mental cripple.
You are a mental cripple by your obsession with
sexuality.
TALK IS CHEAP, TIMMY. AND….
AHEM, DOTH the lady protest too much ?
LOSER
Go drop dead.
One more thing, TIMMY
Please continue your display of DSM IV diagnostics. that fit you.
Continue to do so.
I do have a copy of the DSM, and I can have the pleasure
of every entry your writing about sex problems is linkable
to a DSM check list.
PLEASE DO CONTINUE, LOSER
sigh… Andy for fuck´s sake (sorry 7) just ignore the tosser, the more you engage him the more you get sullied
you are in, he is out, end of story
yeah he knows how to push your buttons and all… but apparently you are smart! use your little brain cells and realize that ignoring him is the best way out
Becky:
I went to Thailand to work, but now I’m in the Czech Republic – to work. I wasn’t humiliated by a “love object,” not do you have any evidence of this. The achievements I listed show I’m not a mental cripple, as do my posts. True, talk is cheap, which is why you managed 8k+ posts as an IHIQS member, more than anyone else, ever. And you really shouldn’t remind people of the Hamlet quote you misattributed to Macbeth, which you mis-spelled. That wasn’t your proudest moment.
I’d love to hear what mental disorders you think I have. Since you’ve giving up arguing, it’ll give us something to talk about.
Eros:
You’re back! And that’s after saying “bye”! Just like I said.
I’m out right now, but I was in three times. How long will it be before I’m back again? Yes, despite being a mental cripple, I know just how to push Becky’s buttons.
“I’m out right now, but I was in three times. How long will it be before I’m back again? ”
You have the balls of a field mouse, Quim Muffy. I’m surprised you’re not back at the IHIQS already. Perhaps the humiliation over being expelled for sexually harassing a female member is such you don’t dare show your face there again.
Yet you keep talking about your eventual return and how you intend to shake the place up. You can do it anytime so why haven’t you done it by now? Maybe because deep down you’re not as confident as you persistently claim that you’ve got the support of members. You have good reason not to be confident after the result of Nathan’s poll was 36-9 in favor of termination.
The reason you’re not back at the IHIQS is because you can’t bear the thought of being humiliated all over again. Your false bravado about turning the place on its head is just that. You’re chicken shit.
I didn’t sexually harass anyone. The lady’s complaint was bullshit, and in the thread that talked about me, nobody took it seriously.
I haven’t returned to IHIQS yet because I have to do certain things first. When I do return, you’ll immediately know what I mean. I can’t go into more detail now because it could scupper my return: they’ll see me coming.
I’m confident in having the support of IHIQS members because two polls proved it. As I said, when I was last at IHIQS, half a dozen threads consisted of nothing but me and people talking to or about me, and these got more than a thousand views each. I’ve been praised more than any other member, ever. You call that humiliation? People love me. The poll showing 36 votes to nine against me was fiddled. Come on, when have you EVER seen that many votes for one poll option? And in three days?
If I’m chickenshit (it’s one word, silly), why are you obsessed with me, Vanquished? After I was suspended, you sent me messages through IHIQS. When I was terminated, you sent me messags through email, Facebook, and Twitter. When even that wasn’t enough, you googled my name and replied to me at some other website where I’d posted. It’s all terribly unhealthy.
”I didn’t sexually harass anyone. The lady’s complaint was bullshit, and in the thread that talked about me, nobody took it seriously. “
Oh really? Here’s what Nathan said in the “Verdict on Berty Dastard” thread;
” We had a woman join on Sept 3rd and asked to have her account removed after filing a formal complaint accusing Berty of sexual harrassment. He’s become a poisonous issue that we can no longer ignore. I’ve put his account on a temporary freeze while we collectively decide if we want a member like this to continue or if we feel it’s best that he no longer be allowed to participate in the forums. I don’t like to ban members and I want this to be our decision, not mine or Laura’s.”
You expect us all to believe that she quit after being member for only a week and filed a sexual harassment claim for the hell of it? Nathan said you’ve become a poisonous issue we could no longer ignore. I don’t recall him saying that about anyone else in the history of IHIQS. You expect people here at 7 sigma blog to believe you when you say you never did anything that warranted termination at IHIQS?
How many times have you been terminated at IHIQS, Timothy? I recall three times. Once as Sarariman, second time as Knight of Wands, and most recently as Berty Dastard. Do you really expect us to believe you were terminated because you were popular? Of course, there was also the time you were posting as Claire, but she was a real member who was terminated for giving you access to her account. How is Claire, by the way? Have you been keeping touch?
”I haven’t returned to IHIQS yet because I have to do certain things first. When I do return, you’ll immediately know what I mean. I can’t go into more detail now because it could scupper my return: they’ll see me coming.”
As if that’s ever stopped you before – I spotted you in an instant when you returned and started posting as the Knight of Wands. Even though you denied who you really were, Nathan still terminated you after only 2 days of posting.
”I’m confident in having the support of IHIQS members because two polls proved it. As I said, when I was last at IHIQS, half a dozen threads consisted of nothing but me and people talking to or about me, and these got more than a thousand views each.”
Except for the fact that you constantly view your own posts over and over again as well as send links to as many people as you can and draw various members into arguments thus ensuring the maximum number of hits.
”I’ve been praised more than any other member, ever. You call that humiliation? People love me. The poll showing 36 votes to nine against me was fiddled.”
That’s what you always say when the results of such polls don’t go your way. You did the same thing back in 2004 when you were Sarariman. You complained that Ade fiddled with your polls. Back then, such an allegation did give the members pause because it was never made by anyone in the history of IHIQS and because Ade did overstep his Admin authority when engaging in a bit of vigilantism where you were concerned.
Do you seriously expect us to believe that Nathan would’ve fiddled with a poll for your termination in such a way? Would be a rather stupid way to fiddle with such a poll, wouldn’t you say?
” Come on, when have you EVER seen that many votes for one poll option? And in three days?”
There’s a simple reason for all that, Timothy. During those three days, I campaigned behind the scenes to solicit as many votes as possible from anyone I remembered being subject to your abuse. The fact that so many people voted for your termination is indicative of just how many people you’ve pissed off.
Months later, being annoyed that a handful of people were still talking about you, I decided to start a thread on whether or not you should be reinstated.
This time, I didn’t do any campaigning and the number of people who voted against your reinstatement was 18. That’s half of what the vote for your termination was. The votes in your favour were down by 1. Still, 18-8 against reinstatement is a loss. Are you going to say this poll was fiddled too?
I feel I must add that I find it very unbecoming for a teacher of English to use sentence fragments when addressing others. ”And in three days?” Can you not find a poorer way to express yourself?
”If I’m chickenshit (it’s one word, silly), why are you obsessed with me, Vanquished? After I was suspended, you sent me messages through IHIQS. When I was terminated, you sent me messags(sic) through email, Facebook, and Twitter. When even that wasn’t enough, you googled(sic) my name and replied to me at some other website where I’d posted. It’s all terribly unhealthy.”[/i]
I did originally type “chickenshit”, but Firefox flagged it. Why am I obsessed with you? Why are you obsessed with Andrew Beckwith? You’re so obsessed that you had two of your email accounts suspended for violating terms of service after repeatedly sending him unwanted and unsolicited emails. You’re so obsessed that you’ve sent him multiple friend requests on Facebook to the point where he had to block you. And you say that I’m the one with the unhealthy obsession(s)?
When have I ever made such a pest of myself with you the way you have with Andy? How come I’ve never had my emails terminated for TOS violations? What was the one…ah yes, mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com. The same email you used to contact a female member of IHIQS suggesting that she commit suicide. And you complain about ME sending you emails and otherwise contacting you outside of IHIQS?
You do know, Mr. English Teacher, that it’s ‘Google-d’ and not ‘googled’? I’m appalled that you’d use the latter in your written communications.
I’ll say it again, the only reason you haven’t returned to IHIQS yet is because you’re scared. You’re scared that you won’t be able to stir things up the way you have in the past. You’re scared that you won’t get the type and level of attention you used to get. You’re scared that you won’t last long enough to see the results of your endeavors. In short, you’re chickenshit. Like I said, Timothy, you have the balls of a field mouse.
Good, you admitted you are a mental cripple, TIMMY.
BUH BYE.
Done with you.
Nates’ comment doesn’t prove I committed sexual harassment. Come on, go to the thread, “Dearest Nathan” and you can see my comment. If the lady said my remark made the environment objectionable to wimmin, she was talking shite.
I think the woman complained about me because she lost an argument to me. As for Nates’ calling me a “poisonous issue,” I’m proud to have been the most complained-of member ever. But I was also the most popular. I proved it and you ignored what I said (despite quoting it). I provoke extreme emotions in people, but then I’m a great writer. Problem is, Nates feels I’m too hot to handle, because he’s yellow and he has no idea of showmanship. I also think he considered me a threat because of the poll showing that most people wanted me to be an admin.
C***e wasn’t terminated. She announced her intention to leave when she revealed that I’d been using her account. So your recall of facts is wrong.
I thought it was funny that you realized it was me using the name KnightofWands, ‘cos you’re as thick as pigshit. I always thought somebody tipped you off. Funnily enough, nobody realized it was me posting as C***e. I was terminated after almost exactly 24 hours as KnightofWands and not after two days, as you say – again, your facts are wrong.
Viewing one’s own posts doesn’t inflate the post count. You’re obviously talking shit here, and if you go onto IHIQS, you’ll see this is true. Your facts are wrong one more time.
I complained that Ade had fiddled a poll AND HE ADMITTED TO IT. He also attacked other people, and that’s why he ain’t an admin no more. I think Nates’ fiddled the poll about me because it got more votes than any other poll, ever, and in a shorter time than was true for any other poll, ever. So it was unheard of in two ways. Ade showed that polls can be fiddled.
I don’t believe your influence attracted so many votes, because you’re not very popular and I was. I think your other poll was fiddled, too. And also the one on whether I should be made an admin: it was 14-2 in my favor two months after opening, and it had stopped moving. After I was lefted from IHIQS, however, the result turned. Now, when did you ever see that happen?
Don’t criticize my English, because it pisses on yours. I say “google” when talking about the verb rather than the website. Check a dictionary, and you’ll see it need not be capitalized. I’ve never before seen anyone say “Google-d.”
I’ve never had an email account suspended. Where did you get that from? Another bullshit “fact.” I haven’t been blocked by rsole9955 on Facebook, and I’ve just sent him another “friend” request. I say you have an unhealthy obsession with me because you sent me messages through IHIQS, email, Twitter, and Facebook, you resurrected this thread after it had been inactive for three months, and you talk about me repeatedly chez HIQS. You just have to have me in your life, don’t you? It’s a compulsion. When have you ever made such a pest of yourself? Umm… How about now?
I didn’t send anybody an email suggesting they commit suicide. I think you’re referring to a comment I made to Marilyn Grimble through IHIQS. She later offered me an olive branch, and now we get on well. You aren’t very good with these fact thingies, are you?
I’m not scared to return to IHIQS. As I told you, there are things I have to do first. But when I do return, I’ll hit the place like it’s never been hit, and you can expect to see me mention the crap you said here. Come now. I had an unprecedented impact on the place three times. You think I couldn’t do it all over again?
“Nates’ comment doesn’t prove I committed sexual harassment. Come on, go to the thread, “Dearest Nathan” and you can see my comment. If the lady said my remark made the environment objectionable to wimmin, she was talking shite.”
You mean this comment here;
“One good thing about this is that gypsy1274 has a vagina. I fantasised that I was argung(sic) with a really pretty woman. If she is, in fact, a TOTAL MINGER, I hope she doesn’t spoil the illusion by posting a photo of herself.”
You were making suggestive remarks toward her. Such remarks IRL situations would sure get you in trouble for sexual harassment – most especially in workplace situations. I believe it was you who said such should be the standard at online discussion forums such as IHIQS. But never mind that. Let’s see what the IHIQS policy on sexual harassment says;
Sexual harassment can include, but is not limited to, the following:
1. Engaging in sexually suggestive or offensive posts and private messages, or other Internet contact which is unwelcome by the recipient. (You made references to her having female genitalia and said you fantasised you were arguing with a pretty woman.)
2. Displaying, storing, or transmitting sexually oriented materials without permission to the recipient. (It doesn’t appear that you’re guilty of this one. The above quoted comment is the only one in question.)
3. Making romantic advances toward a member despite the member’s rejection of the advances. (I think you’re in the clear on this one as well.)
4. Unwelcome comments about physical attributes. (Again reference to her genitalia and expressed a wish that if it turned out she was repulsive looking that she wouldn’t ruin your fantasy by posting a picture of herself.)
5. Engaging in sexually suggestive jokes or remarks, or discussing sexual matters in a manner that ought to be understood as unwelcome or offensive. (Again, references to genitalia and physical appearance ought to have been understood as unwelcome or offensive.)
So yeah, I think you pretty much engaged in sexual harassment toward gypsy1274 as per IHIQS policy.
“I think the woman complained about me because she lost an argument to me. As for Nates’ calling me a “poisonous issue,” I’m proud to have been the most complained-of member ever. But I was also the most popular. I proved it and you ignored what I said (despite quoting it). I provoke extreme emotions in people, but then I’m a great writer. Problem is, Nates feels I’m too hot to handle, because he’s yellow and he has no idea of showmanship. I also think he considered me a threat because of the poll showing that most people wanted me to be an admin.”
I think she complained because you upset her with your comments. You say Nathan thinks you’re too hot to handle because you provoke strong emotions in people. The reason you provoke strong reactions because you’re boorish, uncouth, and disrespectful to others.
“C***e wasn’t terminated. She announced her intention to leave when she revealed that I’d been using her account. So your recall of facts is wrong.”
I’m guessing she announced her intention to leave because she knew she’d be terminated once it was found out she allowed you to post using her account. Actually, it was a very clever pre-emptive strike on her part. Ask for termination before they have the chance to force it upon you. Like the way you type her name out of feigned deference in public for a, yet privately you have no qualms about typing her name in full when bragging about sodomising her in private emails. You feigned such deference to Gayle as well, yet in an email correspondence with me you said she was crazy.
“I thought it was funny that you realized it was me using the name KnightofWands, ‘cos you’re as thick as pigshit. I always thought somebody tipped you off. Funnily enough, nobody realized it was me posting as C***e. “
Think whatever you want. Nobody tipped me off. Nobody realized it was you posting as Claire because no one expected it. After that, however, I had my eyes wide open. I knew you’d return one day. I became well acquainted with your style and idiosyncrasies. I spotted you in an instant. The subject matter you spoke of and the gruff manner in which you addressed others convinced me beyond a doubt it was you.
“I was terminated after almost exactly 24 hours as KnightofWands and not after two days, as you say – again, your facts are wrong.”
Okay, so I checked and you were right. It was after almost 24 hours of posting. And no, my “facts” aren’t wrong “again”. I was a mistaken on the duration of your activity as Knight of Wands. However, such is a trifling error and a reasonable one given it happened more than 3 years ago and it happened over the course of two consecutive days. But since we’re in the spirit of being nitpicky, I will point out that you registered your Knight of Wands account with the spaces as I type it and not “KnightofWands” as you habitually type.
“Viewing one’s own posts doesn’t inflate the post count. You’re obviously talking shit here, and if you go onto IHIQS, you’ll see this is true. Your facts are wrong one more time.”
Not all the time. Definitely not if you check every minute or so, but it still does when you leave the site and return later. I recall when you bragged about how your activity in the World Intelligence Network thread was the reason for its views being so high, Laura remarked that it was most likely due to you and me continually viewing the thread to view our replies to each other. Are you saying you know better than the Admins how this mechanism works? Is Laura talking shit too?
“I complained that Ade had fiddled a poll AND HE ADMITTED TO IT. He also attacked other people, and that’s why he ain’t an admin no more.”
Well, if he did that then shame on him. I don’t recall him ever admitting it. Do you remember which thread?
“I think Nates’ fiddled the poll about me because it got more votes than any other poll, ever, and in a shorter time than was true for any other poll, ever. So it was unheard of in two ways. Ade showed that polls can be fiddled.”
Yeah, you think. How convenient. Can you prove that he did? It must’ve been fiddled because it was unheard of in two ways and Ade (according to you) showed it could be done. Hardly convincing enough to warrant overturning your expulsion, don’t you think?
Besides, weren’t you already expelled before? I think even you remarked that you couldn’t understand why Nathan kept you on for so long as Berty Dastard. He had no problem booting you out in short order when you returned as the Knight of Wands. That he allowed you to stay when you returned as Berty Dastard led me to believe that the two of you struck up a deal in which he allowed you to stay. When I remarked about this in the Verdict thread, Nathan swore there was no allowing about it. He said that you got in through the back door by getting a friend to use their credit card to purchase a membership on your behalf and using fake names to hide your identity. He then expressed frustration that you’ll be back again in one form or another.
“I don’t believe your influence attracted so many votes, because you’re not very popular and I was. I think your other poll was fiddled, too. And also the one on whether I should be made an admin: it was 14-2 in my favor two months after opening, and it had stopped moving. After I was lefted from IHIQS, however, the result turned. Now, when did you ever see that happen?”
I don’t give a damn what you believe or not. You’re obviously a looney whose thought processes are fecal. Either that or you’re a liar or both. You keep talking about how I’m consistently wrong on the facts, but as it turns out, you’ve so far only caught me on one error. Strange you’d quibble about it given it was an error that could be construed as being in your favor. At any rate, a case of misremembering something that’s happened quite some time ago is hardly comparable to misremembering or lying about something more recent.
You say that the poll was 14-2 in your favor, but do you remember editing your post after 4 votes were submitted and adding a little excerpt? It’s all there in black and white. Here’s what you said;
“(Edit: After 20 minutes I’m losing 3-1, and I don’t expect that to change. But hey, it’s fun.)”
Does that jog your memory? There’s no way it could’ve sat at 14-2 for two months after you started the poll when you were losing 3-1 at the beginning. There’d have to be at least 3 votes against you. The number can’t have gone down from 3 to 2. When you first said this here a few months back, I thought it was a typo and you’d actually meant 14-12. But now it seems this is a deliberate fabrication on your part. Looking at the Dearest Nathan thread, your initial post was as follows;
“I started a private thread with the following message. The moment he saw it, the recipient withdrew from the thread without giving a reason. The message;
Dearest Nathan,
I ran a poll on whether I should be made an admin, and won 14-10. This is more votes than in any IHIQS poll I’ve seen since 2004, when I won a poll on who was the coolest member of IHIQS (14 votes, again). Despite this, people complained of the small sample size, but if you want the standard 95% certainty, a poll of 23 people out of 12,000 gives a sampling error of 20.4%. My margin of victory is greater than this sampling error – it is indubitably the will of your customers that I be made an admin.
You accept that Laura can’t continue as an admin – she’s nowhere near as popular as me. I think the “no admins” policy is a nonsense. When you come to your senses, I am here. I use IHIQS a lot, so I will be around a great deal of the time. I won’t show favouritism like Laura or persecute members as you allowed Ade to do to me. I look forward to hearing from you.”
Nowhere do you say that it was 14-2 for a long time. It was 14-10 when you thought the poll had closed after two months. It was pointed out to you by another member that you inadvertently made the poll for 14 months instead of 2 by neglected to change to default year of 2011 to 2010. When it finally closed in August of this year it stood at 22-17 against your being made Admin. So it is you who can’t seem to get his facts straight and partakes in revisionist history. It’s all there in black and white. Next you’ll be saying that the Admins fiddled with your posts too and changed them to say something completely different from what you actually said. I’d love to see you try and pull that one off. Like Razmataz said to Johann, go try and sell your crap on Nickelodeon, the nine year-olds might believe you.
“Don’t criticize my English, because it pisses on yours. I say “google” when talking about the verb rather than the website. Check a dictionary, and you’ll see it need not be capitalized. I’ve never before seen anyone say “Google-d.””
I think you’re right about not needing the capital when using the verb and not the name of the website, but I could’ve sworn I read somewhere that it’s “Google-d” and not “googled”. I just googled it and I couldn’t find it. Incidentally, Word keeps flagging “googled” but not “Google-d” so something funny’s going on here.
“I’ve never had an email account suspended. Where did you get that from? Another bullshit “fact.” I haven’t been blocked by rsole9955 on Facebook, and I’ve just sent him another “friend” request.”
I’m just going by what rwill himself told me. I know he told me about you sending him friend request on Facebook and bombarding him with emails asking him to accept your requests and saying you had two emails accounts suspended for violating terms of service. I asked him if one of the accounts was mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com and he said it was. I thought he told me that he blocked you on FB, but I could be mistaken. I’ll look it up and let you know.
Several months prior to that, I noticed that you were on Andrew’s friends list on Facebook. Apparently, he inadvertently accepted your request not knowing who you actually were. The conversation went something like this;
Me: Hi Andrew. I noticed that you’re friends with Tim on Facebook. I’m surprised that you and Sarariman would become friends.
Andrew: To which Tim are you referring?
Me: Timothy Chilman. He’s Sarariman. Surely, you remember.
Andrew: I had no idea he was Sarariman. I’m removing him right away.
~pause~
Andrew: There. I removed him from my friends list. I had no idea he was Sarariman.
“I say you have an unhealthy obsession with me because you sent me messages through IHIQS, email, Twitter, and Facebook, you resurrected this thread after it had been inactive for three months, and you talk about me repeatedly chez HIQS. You just have to have me in your life, don’t you? It’s a compulsion. When have you ever made such a pest of yourself? Umm… How about now?”
And let me be perfectly frank with you about that, Timmy-boy. The day I’m satisfied that you’ll never set foot at IHIQS again is the day I’ll never bother you again. So long as you keep trying to regain access to IHIQS, I’ll be right behind you breathing down your neck. I will always be one step behind you – ready to pounce. That is one thing you can be sure of. Do I make myself clear?
“I didn’t send anybody an email suggesting they commit suicide. I think you’re referring to a comment I made to Marilyn Grimble through IHIQS. She later offered me an olive branch, and now we get on well. You aren’t very good with these fact thingies, are you?”
You most certainly did send someone an email suggesting they commit suicide. It wasn’t Marilyn either. This was a very young woman you sent the email to. You used your mightyrodofthunder gmail account to do it. That’s why I asked rwill about it. You then proceeded to track her down on MSN chat and told her you were a 21 year old named Max who lived in Orlando, Florida. When she asked why your user name was Timothy you told her you knew of a website where you could cam each other without being recorded. Remember that?
“I’m not scared to return to IHIQS. As I told you, there are things I have to do first. But when I do return, I’ll hit the place like it’s never been hit, and you can expect to see me mention the crap you said here. Come now. I had an unprecedented impact on the place three times. You think I couldn’t do it all over again?”
That’s mighty big talk. I’m not sure what things you have to do before you first join. Why not just do it already? I know you’ve moved back to England so you don’t have to worry about the IP block anymore. I know how easily you can rejoin using a phony Paypal account. You’ve done it before. I know you’re aware of the cheap 1-year alternatives available now. Hell, if you’re smart about it you could create an inconspicuous pseudonym for the membership account and a completely different one for the DF account. Use different emails for each and Nathan won’t know which “member” is you.
If he deletes your DF account just create another one. Of course, you know all this without my telling you so what are you waiting for?
Re: Andy blocking you, I said was going to get back to you on that. Here’s what he told me back in April;
“Sariman in my own way has been BLOCKED by me. I will NOT
respond to him at all. I.e. in that sense he failed.”
Sounds like he hasn’t really utilized the blocking feature, but by saying he’s blocked you in his own way means he’s simply ignoring any more requests or attempts by you to contact him.
Do you think I was perhaps being sarcastic?
I explained what made my performance great. I explained that I’d do rather well on this fire list, based on my performance at IHIQS, where I hurt you so much. You said I have sexual hang-ups, but you’re the one who DOES NOT LICK THE VERTICAL BACON SANDWICH OF HIS WIFE. I told you to search on your name at IHIQS, and see what you find. You try to quote Shakespeare to sound clever, attributing the quote to the wrong play and mis-spelling even that.
You have no answer to any of these. You lost this exchange, Becky. Just like old times, huh?
Don’t ask me why, but there’s no “reply” option on your message, so the best thing I can do is reply to the next message.
Thanks for reminding me of my comment to the silly woman. Not being a member, I was unable to see it, and it was kinda important. Yes, the remark was suggestive. It would go down badly in a workplace situation, but then it didn’t happen in a workplace. I don’t recall ever saying workplace rules should apply at IHIQS. I don’t think my comment was so bad for a discussion forum. I made references to her having female genitalia? Lordy! You have male genitalia. Is that sexual harassment? You have a penis, and I see it extending from your forehead. I really don’t think my comment was so bad. Certainly, other IHIQS members didn’t think so, as a look at the thread about me will show.
I believe gypsy1274 was pissed because she took center stage to have an argument with me, lost, and ended up looking silly. While some people react to me negatively, I’ve proved that most people react positively: witness the results of two polls, the attention I was given, and all the praise I received. I was praised more than any other member in the history of IHIQS.
C****e announced her intention to leave because she was bored with IHIQS, something I can’t imagine. I sodomised C***e in private emails? I’d have thought I sodomised her up the ass. G***e *was* crazy, and I told her so. Her lunacy was actually cute, and she was also very pretty and very clever, so she can get away with it.
You admit you were wrong about my only lasting a day as KnightofWands. You were also wrong when you said C****e was terminated against her will, that you can get 1000+ views as you suggest, that Ade never admitted he fiddled the poll, about the use of the verb, “google,” that I had email accounts suspended, that I was blocked by rsole9955 on Facebook, that I sent an email suggesting somebody commit suicide, and that my balls are minuscule (your allegations testify to the contrary; you make me sound like a mean dude). You say I only caught you out on one error, but I make it nine. The “facts” you cite are often bullshit. I registered as KnightofWands and asked to have it changed to Knight of Wands, which occurred after my termination. Another mistake! We’re up to ten!
I didn’t know a view count could be inflated by logging out of the site and then in again, but I don’t see that being responsible for half-a-dozen view counts in excess of a thousand. I wouldn’t want to do it because if I didn’t earn a view count, it isn’t worth having. Anyway, I’ve never seen it happen, so it’s unproven. Laura talks a lot of shit, and I told her so.
Ade admitted to fiddling the poll at the time. The evidence is no longer around because the thread named me as the coolest IHIQS member of 2004 and it showed evidence of Ade’s malfeasance: good reasons for Nates to delete it. If you want to prove it, you could always ask Ade.
I believe I was only around for a day as KnightofWands but endured six months as Berty Dastard because after the Day of KnightofWands, I received so much praise: more in one day than you’ve had in eight years (or whatever). Sure, I used somebody else’s credit card to get back in to IHIQS. Why would that stop Nates from terminating me after a day as he did before? He allowed me to remain. He expressed frustration, but he also said he’d missed me, so you really can’t trust the things the guy comes out with. He says whatever happens to be in his short-term interests.
The poll on whether I should be made an admin was 4-2 against me after 20 minutes, but after an hour it was in my favor. I think every IHIQS poll there has ever been ended with the same result as was evident after an hour. The poll was 14-10 in my favor after two months and it had stopped moving BY THAT TIME, but later it changed to 22-17 against me. It’s unheard of for a poll to change direction like that, and I think it’s also unheard of for a poll to become active again after people have lost interest.
If rsole9955 told you I’d had two email accounts suspended, he was wrong, and you ought to be wary of believing someone quite so insane. He wasn’t as clever or as cute as G***e, and he was a lot crazier.
You say you don’t want me to rejoin IHIQS, but I think this whole business is to that very end. You restarted a three month-dormant thread to challenge me to return. As we saw with your messages to me through IHIQS, Facebook, and Twitter, and the time you googled on my name and approached me at another website, you yearn for my input. In all these cases, you weren’t one step behind: you were one step ahead. You invited a response from me. You can’t live without me. It’s deeply sick.
You say I contacted someone through email and MSN chat, but you can’t prove that, so we’ll forget it. I don’t remember ever doing these things.
Thanks for the tip about joining IHIQS by using PayPal. I didn’t know that. That’s what I’ll do. I became aware of the cheap one-year option when you took advantage of it with one of your tiresome additional accounts. You know, the ones you regretted so much.
The lack of a reply option is quite annoying.
If rsole9955 was ignoring my attempts to contact him, he really shouldn’t have directed messages to me here. As you can see, what he said was untrue. The guy is not of sound mind and you’d have to be a complete fucking retard to believe a word he says.
“The lack of a reply option is quite annoying.”
Yes, it is.
“If rsole9955 was ignoring my attempts to contact him, he really shouldn’t have directed messages to me here. As you can see, what he said was untrue. The guy is not of sound mind and you’d have to be a complete fucking retard to believe a word he says.”
So, how is it that you were at one point on his friend’s list on Facebook? If his allegations are completely false and you never sent a friend request how is that you were connected?
I’m not surprised that you would send him such a request, but I was shocked that he’d accept. If you didn’t send him such as request then how did you end up on his friend’s list? When he returned to IHIQS recently, Gwyneth told him you said hi. Why would you do this if you detest him so much?
True that the whole bit about your email accounts being terminated for sending him multiple unwanted messages is a case of he said he said, but that still doesn’t say anything for the email you sent a female member of IHIQS when you were back as Berty Dastard. You say one would have to be a complete retard to believe anything Beckwith says, but you’re not exactly a credible source. Why should anyone take the word of someone who’s been repeatedly kicked out of IHIQS for his unruly behaviour?
As for the email sent to the young woman from IHIQS, here’s what you sent her;
Date: Sun, 21 Feb 2010 00:07:27 +0100
Subject: IHIQS
From: mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com
To: solve_my_riddle@msn.com
You got a name check.
The answer to your riddle, incidentally, is suicide. Go and do it – after posting.
——————————————————————————————–
Still don’t remember? Are you going to deny it was you? If not you, then who was it? It had to have been someone from IHIQS because it’s the title in the subject line. I can’t think of anyone else who’d have reason to send her such a message. And this happening around the time you joined as Berty Dastard is a bit too much of a coincidence, I find.
“Thanks for the tip about joining IHIQS by using PayPal. I didn’t know that. That’s what I’ll do. I became aware of the cheap one-year option when you took advantage of it with one of your tiresome additional accounts. You know, the ones you regretted so much.”
Funny, but after you were terminated as Knight of Wands, I recall Nathan telling me in a PT that you covered your tracks by using a pseudonymous Paypal account based in Prague to cover your tracks. Interesting that you moved to Hodonin soon after. You also posted a thread at IHIQS about Call centres in which you talked about having worked at one while living in Prague. So when you say you didn’t know about that, you lie. I actually learned about that trick from you. Albeit through Nathan by proxy. So, in short you’re once again being naughty by fibbing. And you expect us to believe you haven’t sent friend requests to rwill9955 on Facebook and sent the suicide email to a female member of IHIQS?
I’m not sure what you mean by one of my “tiresome additional accounts”. If you’re referring to perkins, I never did purchase a membership for ‘him’. I simply created a duplicate account in said name. It’s all too easy to create multiple accounts there.
I think you even asked me if such a feature should exist at all. I say it shouldn’t. There are other sites like IQ Nexus where any newly created account requires Admin activation. I think Nathan would do well to add more staff and implement such a feature.
I don’t know why the “Reply” option isn’t showing on some posts. I can’t find anything unusual in any of the dashboard settings. It must be just some quirk to do with WordPress.
It would be better to reply to your second message, but it has no “reply” option, and here I am.
I admit I sent Facebook friend requests to the arsehole, rsole9955, and I see no harm in it. I detest him, but it’s still funny to torment him, and by Jiminy, does it work. “Timmy scum! Scumbag! He dirties my hands! He makes me want to vomit! He’s a discrace (sic) to the U.K.!” Remember that one? It brings me joy to this day, and it’s still visible at IHIQS. Saying “hi” to someone you dislike is funny. If something bad happens to you, don’t you ever say, “Great!”
I’d forgotten the email you regurgitated. My suggestion was obviously a joke, and not worth all that emoting.
You shouldn’t listen to Becky because he said he would never, ever have contact with me ever again, not in a million years, oh no. And then he aimed six messages at me here. I think I can be trusted because from my posts I’m evidently REALLY, REALLY CLEVER and I haven’t been caught out lying. The same is hardly true of you.
I got a friend to rejoin IHIQS on my behalf as KnightofWands, and I don’t know how he did it. I wasn’t there. There was no need to move house to cover my tracks. So long as its a payment facility I haven’t previously used, my location is immaterial. So, I’m not lying, and it isn’t even an important point. There was a thread about me (I get a lot of those) entitled, “Email from KnightofWands,” which does rather prove that that was then the name of the account, which proves you wrong once more.
I said that the comment that caused Nates to suspend me and do that poll was nothing terribly awful, and you no longer dispute that. You haven’t challenged the reason I gave for Gypsy1274’s complaint about me – she was annoyed at losing an argument to me. You don’t dispute that I was hugely popular at IHIQS: two polls in my favor, lotsa attention, and more praise than anybody else ever had (and I got more praise in one day than you’ve had in eight years).
You haven’t questioned my account of C***e’s departure from IHIQS. I said that the method you suggest for inflating view counts isn’t an option to get six threads of 1,000+ views, and you don’t challenge that. You said that I lacked courage (“the balls of a field mouse”) but I contend that your own verbiage contradicts that – you make me sound so awful. I say Ade admitted to fiddling a poll, and explained why the evidence is no longer visible unless you ask him, and you seem to accept it. I say KnightofWands lasted only a day but Berty lasted for six months because the former received so much praise. You have no answer to that.
I explained why the polls about me were obviously fiddled, and you have no response. You say you don’t want me to rejoin IHIQS, but your desire to hear from me and your challenges (“You’re scared…” etc) indisputably indicate otherwise. You aren’t doing very well here, are you?
“I admit I sent Facebook friend requests to the arsehole, rsole9955, and I see no harm in it. I detest him, but it’s still funny to torment him, and by Jiminy, does it work. “Timmy scum! Scumbag! He dirties my hands! He makes me want to vomit! He’s a discrace (sic) to the U.K.!” Remember that one? It brings me joy to this day, and it’s still visible at IHIQS. Saying “hi” to someone you dislike is funny. If something bad happens to you, don’t you ever say, “Great!””
Well, I for one am pleased as punch that you’d show your true colors in this very public forum. It doesn’t take much effort to get you to do it, but it pleases me nonetheless.
“I’d forgotten the email you regurgitated. My suggestion was obviously a joke, and not worth all that emoting.”
Ah, so you finally admitted that you used the account; mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com. Then it shouldn’t be too difficult for you to prove that Andrew Beckwith’s allegation about you losing said account for violating terms of service is false. You can easily settle this by sending me an email from your mightyrodofthunder account.
“You shouldn’t listen to Becky because he said he would never, ever have contact with me ever again, not in a million years, oh no. And then he aimed six messages at me here.”
And this was only after you goaded a reply out of him with your usual unmitigated attacks. It’s funny, but he never once even mentioned your name. I was the first to mention you then Eros after me. Andy didn’t once say one word about you until you jumped in to goad him into a spat. As Eros said, you know how to push his buttons. Besides, didn’t you just proudly proclaim you enjoyed provoking him?
“I think I can be trusted because from my posts I’m evidently REALLY, REALLY CLEVER and I haven’t been caught out lying. The same is hardly true of you. “
I don’t think it’s true of me because all you’ve done is nitpick at mistaken recollection on my part and rather trivial ones at that. Hell, you claimed you never sent an email to anyone suggesting suicide, but when I posted it you said you’d forgotten about it and it was a joke. A rather tasteless joke if you ask me. So which is worse? “Forgetting” about a “joke” you emailed to someone or how an account created someone else was originally registered before a very minor requested change was made?
“I got a friend to rejoin IHIQS on my behalf as KnightofWands, and I don’t know how he did it. I wasn’t there. There was no need to move house to cover my tracks. So long as its a payment facility I haven’t previously used, my location is immaterial.”
Seems odd that you’d need a “friend” to join on your behalf. Next you’ll be saying he took the test for you too. It would make sense if he was using his credit card to pay on your behalf, but according to Nathan it was a Paypal account with a Prague address. You say it’s immaterial, but the fact that you were in Prague before you moved to Hodonin is worth noting. Unless, you were still in England at the time and your friend in Prague did it using his own Paypal account. That I thought you might be lying because your story didn’t jibe with Nathan’s is a reasonable assumption. Particularly given your history.
“So, I’m not lying, and it isn’t even an important point. There was a thread about me (I get a lot of those) entitled, “Email from KnightofWands,” which does rather prove that that was then the name of the account, which proves you wrong once more.”
You may or may not be lying about what you say. I assumed you were because it conflicted with what Nathan told me. Still doesn’t change the fact that you rejoined in an underhanded and shady manner. Your repeated mention of my mistake about how you registered as Knight of Wands is both trivial and irrelevant. And that’s even assuming what you say is true. Really not worth mentioning at all. The account is still there and appears as Knight of Wands, so my assumption was a perfectly reasonable one. It certainly is not a case of me being caught in a lie.
“I said that the comment that caused Nates to suspend me and do that poll was nothing terribly awful, and you no longer dispute that. You haven’t challenged the reason I gave for Gypsy1274’s complaint about me – she was annoyed at losing an argument to me.”
I posted the part of IHIQS policy that showed what you said constituted sexual harassment. Not to mention, it was highly inappropriate and quite crude.
“You don’t dispute that I was hugely popular at IHIQS: two polls in my favor, lotsa attention, and more praise than anybody else ever had (and I got more praise in one day than you’ve had in eight years). “
Except you conveniently forget that you lost both polls and that I posted the results of the Admin poll here. Clearly, you lost, but your ego can’t handle it so you claim it was fiddled with. You lost every poll about you since your return as Berty Dastard and claimed they were all fiddled with. Since your claims are specious and not provable continually arguing about it is a waste of time.
“You haven’t questioned my account of C***e’s departure from IHIQS. I said that the method you suggest for inflating view counts isn’t an option to get six threads of 1,000+ views, and you don’t challenge that.”
I haven’t questioned your account of Claire’s departure because I never disputed it. I said she was smart to announce she was leaving and that she allowed you to post using her account before being found out because she’d have been surely terminated had the Admins caught wind of what was going on. It was a perfect face saving opportunity. It was you who assumed I said her account was closed against her will. I never said that at all.
I also didn’t say it was that method was the only one for inflating view counts. I said it was one of several. Obviously, it alone would be ineffectual and not increase the view counts substantially. But constantly linking to them in your posts which you’ve done to infinity and sending links via PT to as many members as you can which you’re also known for doing would certainly achieve the desired effect.
“You said that I lacked courage (“the balls of a field mouse”) but I contend that your own verbiage contradicts that – you make me sound so awful.”
I said what I’d said to provoke a reaction out of you. You think it might’ve of worked? You are replying to me, are you not? I don’t have to make you sound awful. You’re doing a fine job of that yourself just as you always have. Do keep it up.
“I say Ade admitted to fiddling a poll, and explained why the evidence is no longer visible unless you ask him, and you seem to accept it.”
I specifically recall saying that if he did it he ought to be ashamed. I’m not concerned with that at the moment although I might ask him about it at a later date. I’m more interested in your proving that rwill9955 is lying about your email account suspensions.
Like I said, he specifically told me that mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com was one of them. You have my email address. All you have to do is send me an email from the account in question and you’re saved. If you do this, I would gladly post it here and apologize to you for taking Andy at his word. It would only be fair and proper, I think.
If, however, you can’t do this or somehow say you can’t because you forgot your password or some such, I’ll assume his allegations are true.
“I say KnightofWands lasted only a day but Berty lasted for six months because the former received so much praise. You have no answer to that.”
I honestly don’t know what Nathan was thinking when he let you stay for so long as Berty Dastard. Like I said before, it seemed strange to me that he made such an about face. Nevertheless, the vote was still 36-9 in favor of termination. Later, when I created a poll on whether or not you should be allowed to return, the vote was 18-8 against you.
“I explained why the polls about me were obviously fiddled, and you have no response.”
Your explanations are speculative horseshit which I don’t think you really believe. You only say this because you don’t like the outcome and you keep peddling your nonsense in the hopes that enough people would believe you. Like I said, sell it to the kids at Nickelodeon. You might have better luck there.
“You say you don’t want me to rejoin IHIQS, but your desire to hear from me and your challenges (“You’re scared…” etc) indisputably indicate otherwise. You aren’t doing very well here, are you?”
I don’t want you to rejoin IHIQS, but I wouldn’t pay any heed to you this time if you did. I’d much rather continue our dialogue here. If you wanted to join, you’d have done it by now. You say you have to do something first because you don’t want them to see you coming. Whatever element of surprise you thought you had is gone now.
You see, Timothy, I was tipped off last week about your planned return. I was given a mere hint of what you have planned. That’s why I started this conversation with you here. I had already informed Nathan of what I’d heard and others I’m in contact with at IHIQS know about it as well. I even imbedded a link to this conversation into my signature at IHIQS. So you see, Timothy, my objective has been accomplished.
I am, however, interested in seeing whether or not you can prove that Andy is lying about your emails being suspended for TOS violations. Try not to keep us all waiting too long.
Can the IHIQS exiles come here to debate?
In my humble opinion, if you two are to debate, it should be about something truly intellectual — something worth your time. Tim, you’re an excellent poster, but all the self-adulation is a little tiring.
Andrew, Tim: can you two think of a debate, one free of swearing and insults, which you two can have?
I would love to see what you two could do in a real debate, rather than a petty squabble.
All the best, Metis.
“I don’t know why the “Reply” option isn’t showing on some posts. I can’t find anything unusual in any of the dashboard settings. It must be just some quirk to do with WordPress.”
Thanks for keeping us informed on the matter, Gwyneth. Although you could weigh in as to why Tim would ask you to say hi to Andy for him in the IHIQS discussion forum.
I still can’t reply. I’d prefer to thrash you publicly, but it might be a better idea to go to email. If you want to keep posting in a thread which is a mess, do continue.
I emailed you from mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com. I was surprised the account was still open, as I haven’t used it for more than a year. Are you going to apologize? I never denied using this account. It’s also rather stupid for you to expect it to still be suspended.
I did goad Becky into a spat, and he replied to me despite saying he would never have any contact with me ever again. The guy talks shit.
I’ve done more than nitpick. I corrected you over a series of major falsehoods. I didn’t recall the “suicide” email, because you made out that I had seriously suggested someone commit suicide, and that never happened – what I said was quite obviously a joke, and if you’d included the post to which I was replying, it would have been a funny one. You may not like the joke, but you already proved you’re out of kilter with the rest of humanity with your reaction to my comment to Gypsy1274.
I needed a friend to join on my behalf because otherwise my application would have been rejected. You know this. If I hadn’t adopted an “underhanded and shady manner,” I wouldn’t have got in. I don’t see how my physical location affects anything: it is, as I said, immaterial. Do you think anything matters other than the credit card or PayPal account used? My story didn’t accord with Nates’ because I had no idea how my friend paid.
I mentioned that my account was called KnightofWands and not Knight of Wands because you said, “But since we’re in the spirit of being nitpicky, I will point out that you registered your Knight of Wands account with the spaces as I type it and not ‘KnightofWands’.” It was trivial and irrelevant, and you’re the one who wasted everybody’s time by bringing it up.
Gypsy1274’s complaint can be disregarded because there was a thread dedicated to my termination, and in it, nobody took her complaint seriously.
I didn’t lose both of the polls about my popularity. The first was in 2004, and it asked who was the coolest member of IHIQS. I got twice as many votes as anybody else, one of whom was rsole9955. The second, when I was Berty Dastard, was 14-10 in my favor after two months, and I say it was later fiddled because polls don’t change direction after two months. I believe the poll over whether I should be terminated was fiddled because it had more votes than any other IHIQS poll ever, and it also got votes much faster than any other poll. I call that three pieces of proof, and not “speculative horseshit.” If polls behaved in ways never seen before or since, I think that’s significant.
You DID question my account of C***e’s departure. You said, “She was a real member who was terminated for giving you access to her account.” You were wrong. She was terminated because she asked to be terminated, and that was because she was bored with IHIQS. “I never said that at all.” You tell so many lies. Nobody showed any sign of getting wind of what I was doing, so if she hadn’t mentioned it, she’d have gotten away with it.
There were six threads that were all about me which got more than a thousand views each. I got more attention than any other member, ever. You said I inflated the post count personally, which would take weeks using the method you detailed. If there are other such methods, I don’t know them. Do you? Linking to earlier posts in my own posts and PTs is within the rules of the game. It still means that a person other than me looked at the posts.
You said what you did to provoke a reaction from me. You just had to hear from me. But the things you say make me sound like the baddest guy around, which isn’t consistent with my having no courage.
I agree that Ade ought to be ashamed, and I look forward to your finding out that he fiddled a poll. If he denies it, you should ask other people who were around at the time. There are quite a few of those.
I’ve said again and again and again that I will rejoin IHIQS sooner or later, but there are things I have to do first so my entrance will be like no other. You obviously want me to rejoin, or we wouldn’t be talking and you wouldn’t be repeatedly challenging me to rejoin. If I start posting, I will have the element of surprise. If posts from me start to appear, it will take a while for IHIQS management to respond.
It’s great that you’re linking to this conversation at IHIQS, so other people can see you lose. How many times now has your signature been about me? How many times have you contacted me? (Including this one) How many times have you mentioned me? You quite clearly have a thing about me.
Points you ducked:
I said Gypsy1274 was annoyed with me because she started an argument with me and lost. I remember from other things she posted that she was deeply weird. You can’t challenge the fact that I got more attention at IHIQS than anybody else ever, or that I got more praise. You admit that Nates’ allowing me to remain at IHIQS was bewildering, and I say it was because I received so much praise as KnightofWands, which you don’t question.
OK, so the email address you used to use, [email address removed], no longer works. You’ll have to tell me the new one.
“OK, so the email address you used to use, [email address removed], no longer works. You’ll have to tell me the new one.”
That’s funny, I just sent myself a test email from the account provided by my ISP and it worked just fine which you now know because Gwyneth sent a link to to us both yesterday that lists the email addresses of all the recipients.
If the hotmail account still doesn’t work you can send your message to that one.
Okay, I just received an email from Timothy’s mightyrodofthunder account in which he called me a stupid cunt. Nice. Fair enough because I sent him an email from my hotmail account calling him a lying gobshite. Strange that you’re not able to send emails to it though. I tried it earlier and it worked just fine. I even have an email form yesterday.
Anyway, I said if you’d show that you could still access the account, I’d apologize for believing Andy when he said he caused your emails to be terminated. I’m sorry. I was wrong and I’m man enough to own up to it.
Given you’re history and pattern of behaviour, however, what can one expect?
You’ve been terminated from IHIQS multiple times for your behaviour and show no contrition at all for using dubious means to return on multiple ocassions. You started spats without myself and others both here and at IHIQS and blamed it on the other party.
When I mentioned your name in passing here, it was to contrast between you and Andrew Beckwith who was bemoaning being expelled from IHIQS and trying to get back in. Being your vain and self-obsessed self, you found this site by googling your own name. You then proceeeded to bait me, Eros, and Andy leaving the most tantalizing bait for Andy. I was the only one that didn’t take it.
Were you really surprised by the results? Eros, who stopped replying to you, then told him to just ignore you and not let you push his buttons. I did the same via private message on Facebook. It seems he’d taken both our advice because later when Andrew and I were discussing Brennan Martin, you tried to bait him again and he didn’t bite.
As for your claims of being more popular than Beckwith at IHIQS, don’t make me laugh. The poll I conducted regarding his reinstatement was 19-3 in his favor. contrast that with the same poll I started about you and the situation is reversed. 18-8 against your being reinstated.
Like I said, I only started this spat with you because I was aware of your plans to return to IHIQS. I have an inkling to what you have planned and I’ve made said information known to Nathan. I also knew about your hesitancy to rejoin without having an element of surprise. I think I’ve successfully thwarted that, so I will now leave you here to your own devices.
A little egg on my face because of the email thing, but it was worth it to get to the bottom of something that’s been gnawing at me for a while.
I came here because people were talking about me. They do that, you know. All I did was continue the conversation. The self-adulation was an appropriate response to what people said about me, and the posts of Eros and Becky lead me to believe that everything I said was true.
Lessee. You were wrong about the verb, “googled.” You said C***e was terminated, when she wasn’t. You said I inflated the view counts of the threads I dominated: “You constantly view your own posts over and over again.” It would be supremely unrealistic to expect to achieve six view counts of 1,000+ in this way. You asked me if Laura was talking shit when she said I had inflated the view counts, and now it rather looks like she was. You said that I had said that workplace rules should apply at IHIQS, when I never said any such thing.
You said I misspelled “arguing.” You should have checked a dictionary, just like with “google.” Obviously, your comments re. the English language should be ignored. You were wrong about the length of time knightofwands survived. You were also wrong about the name of the account, and said it was a stupid thing to talk about when you were the one who first mentioned it. You said my survival as Berty Dastard hinged on an arrangement I’d made with Nates, when I never did any such thing. You said rsole9955 had blocked me on Facebook, but later admitted you were in error. You said I’d suggested someone commit suicide, when it was very obviously a joke. You said my method of rejoining IHIQS was “underhanded and shady,” when it was the only way I could do it.
You said that my suggestion that the polls were fiddled was “not provable” and “speculative horseshit,” but I think that if polls do things polls have never otherwise done, THREE TIMES, that’s suspicious. You said I’d had email accounts suspended. I have now sent you an email from mightyrodofthunder@gmail.com (is that a cool name, or what?) and you now admit you were in error. You said you never accepted my bait. What the fuck do you think you’re doing right now? You said I’d only caught you out with one error, when I make it 16, and that makes it 17. You talk a load of shit. You’ve been wrong every step of the way. You have scant regard for facts. You are not a credible person. You simply should not be listened to.
Then there were all the things you went on about at length that really didn’t matter. You talked about my physical location. How does that matter? You talked for ages about my saying the poll result was 14-2, when all I did was mistype, once. You spoke several times about my soliciting Gwyneth to say “Hi” to rsole9955 for me. Why would that matter? And there was the business about the name of KnightofWands. You waste our time.
Are you still glad you’re linking to this page at IHIQS? I think you lost the argument, hands down.
PS You can see me debate at IHIQS, about pubic shaving, the meaning of “slander,” reincarnation, pleonasm, Friedrich Nietzsche, the non-existence of Jesus, and more. Does Becky do so much?
Tim, Metis = Sam.
Yes, it is true, people do talk about you a lot.
If you wish to be acting like a case of pure obsession
, Chilman, please continue
” Frankly my dear, I do not give a damn”
Buzz off.
I don’t think replying to someone who addressed me counts as obsession. You tell me to continue, then you tell me to buzz off. And did you not say “BUH BYE” in your earlier post? You talk a load of shit, you really do.
Brennan tells us that, of his own volition, he left certain societies which required a high IQ to be admitted, shortly after his IQ was revealed to be not that high.
He says he was a “gifted stand-up comedian,” but at IHIQS I never once saw him say something funny.
He says he cannot comment on the profitable activities in which he has engaged, but since he has never shown himself to be good for anything, I think the main barrier against his commenting is that there’s nothing to comment on.
This guy is FULLOSHIT.
Brennan Martin is for the time being part of Prometheus. i.e. that is what the status quo is. It is also the IQ society he was most interested in.
For the life of me, I see no point of even reviewing this topic. Its done with.
For what it is worth, Chris Langan also got into a games show and made off with 250 thousand USD which severed him and his family well. The matter was brought up in the fire_list. Then discontinued.
I hope no one spends any more time on this topic. Time to move on.
Except for the fact that everyone has moved on until Brennan himself decided to bring the issue back to the front burner just days ago. I also see no similarity between Brennan collecting on a bet he won by scoring high on an IQ test which he appears to have cheated on and Chris Langan winning 250k on a game show.
Had Brennan had an ounce of integrity, he wouldn’t have accepted receipt of the proceeds from the person who’d lost the wager. Instead, he practically goaded anyone who hasn’t paid up to pay as soon as possible lest it reflect poorly on their credibility. Yet, all the while he knew of the controversy surrounding his CFIT score.
I guess he was anxious to make sure he collected before the 60 minutes episode came to air. Had he waited til after he’d have had a more difficult time collecting from all parties involved in the wager.
I personally think Brennan’s conduct was despicable in this regard and I make absolutely no apologies for saying so. I also know for a fact that he was expelled from IQ Nexus Forums so his claim that he only left various IQ societies on his own recognizance is false and he shouldn’t get a free pass for stating such a falsehood so openly on a public blog.
I am not disputing what you are talking about. I merely bring up that there is an aura of gamemanship going on by those purporting to have extremely high IQ levels.
I have met Chris Langan in person and can state that he is VERY smart, far more intelligent than I am, Victor. I respect that intellect. As though brought up by Kevin Langdon, what a waste of a four to five sigma level intellect!
Still though the fact is, that there is a degree of gaming the system, even in Chris Langans conduct. I.e. he took the Mega exam under different names. The first score he got was a 167, or so, which is still an AMAZING feat for anyone. I.e. that 167 is plain PHENOMENAL.
As far as Brennan, the best thing to do is to leave it alone. I.e. he is ignored in the fire list and the issue is dying out by not being even referred to.
Sometimes the best way to win over and to get by an unpleasant situation is to let it die out by ignoring the culprits.
Andrew,
I have no arguments with any of what you’ve just said. I agree that Chris Langan is a phenomenal intellect though I can’t really say the same for Brennan. I agree that ignoring those that feed off of negative attention is the best way to silence them, so I’ll just leave it at that.
Regards,
Victor
I have had people in the Swines list say I have an IQ of about 112. I.e.
in that situation, opinions are like ***holes. Everyone has one.
IMO, I have IQ scores, and it amuses me when people play throw a dart as to guess. IMO, the scores from as low as 112 given by one person in AS-SP
who got mad at me since I do not endorse the PMB hypothesis,i.e. the
Triune brain model, and other scores.
As it is, no one has come close to the actual score I got. : -)
Were I a possessor of a 167 Mega exam IQ score, I would not put it up
anyway.
It is fun to see people guess : – )
“Sometimes the best way to win over and to get by an unpleasant situation is to let it die out by ignoring the culprits.”
Do you really believe your actions have been consistent with this principle, Becky?
Damn, Terrible Tim is still going on about being a victim I see. Lol. It really is about time he got a life.
I will comment on a few things that caught my eye while (very) briefly perusing the posts here;
1) I resigned as admin of IHIQS for several reasons. One of the main ones was that I’d come to the (pretty obvious) conclusion that life is just too short to spend even a tiny fraction of it baby-sitting narcissistic sociopaths, bullies, and pillocks like Tim.
2) Yes, I fully admit to “vigilantism” against Tim. In my defense it was to draw his attention away from the other people he had a tendency to bully. And, because he deserved it. I’m not saying it wasn’t fun mind you, because it was.
3) Once upon a time a vaguely remember hacking around in the IHIQS database (it’s a tech thing so not something that Nate or any of the mods were able to pull off fwiw) to change a silly poll; I can’t for the life of me remember what the poll was about. It was meant to be amusing (it was too) and I rigged the poll so outrageously you’d have to have been an idiot (which apparently you couldn’t be in the first place, ha!) to think it was intentionally meant to deceive. But hey, it seems that some idiots slipped passed the checks. The unfortunate consequence was that, forever after, some of the idiots believed that all polls that didn’t go their way were somehow rigged.
Now I will return to the really awesome life I have. Tim, I suggest you try to get one some time, if you are capable. Although I highly doubt that you are.
Ciao
And where did I go on about being a victim? I never once used that word. I am, however, glad you admit to changing a poll. As Vanquished said, you should be ashamed of yourself.
You say you “resigned” as an admin because life was too short for it, but the reason you gave at the time was that so many people had complained of your vigilantism against them. Saying that you resigned implies that you had a choice, and you didn’t.
You admit to grinding an axe against me and claim it was because I was a bully, but other people made similar complaints. Were they also bullies? It sounds awfully like you just abused your administrative powers when you felt like it.
You say you hacked IHIQS, but hacking is unauthorized entry to a system, while you had been officially given the password. You’re talking yourself up. You bellyache that when people disliked the result of any poll, they grumbled of poll fiddling, but if you proved that admins can and will change polls, you really can’t complain.
I can’t imagine that your life is so “awesome,” because you have a face like a horse and your posts are shit.
Nice rewrite/reinterpretation of reality there Tim. Keep at it and perhaps some fool or other may come along eventually that actually believes you. 😉
You know what when I hear Timothy bitching, it makes me wonder what sort of a life he really has. I.e. I was in China for 17 days, just came back and had a ball. I.e. I want to go eventually to Chongqing and live there, and I have people I love and respect deeply there who are a joy to me.
When I come back and see Timothy bitching, it reminds me of the little boy screaming “look at me” who wants attention.
IMO sorry, TIMMY, but you know you kinda blew it when you suggested all there was to knowing a woman was carnal events. I.e. when you eventually access the grey matter between her ears, maybe you will stop haunting and whining for attention.
Kinds makes me think TIMMY has never had a content quality relationship with a woman in his life 🙂
Make my day, TIMMY, by going anal again.
your problem, not mine 🙂
Andy
How did I re-write reality, Ade? You said I was going on about being a victim, when I never did any such thing. Vanquished made various allegations, and I disproved them all. Do you deny that you fiddled a poll? Bearing in mind that you said, “Once upon a time vaguely remember hacking around in the IHIQS database… to change a silly poll.”? Or do you dispute that you ceased to be an IHIQS admin because so many people couldn’t stand you?
Hello, Becky! I see your policy of never speaking to me ever again is going as well as it always did.
You say I want attention, but I do believe I get it: At IHIQS, I won two polls about me, I dominated threads, people (for instance, Vanquished) started even more threads about me, people made more complaints about me to Nates than anyone else, and even after I’m terminated, people (mostly Vanquished) keep talking about me. I got more attention than anybody else, ever.
You say I’ve never had a quality relationship with a woman, but we all know your wife only married you to get a visa and escape communism. You may not give her oral sex, but I’m sure the gardener stands in for you in that respect.
Last point, for everyone: I think it would be a good idea if we all posted in the box at the bottom of the page instead of replying to messages. Otherwise, it’s hard for My Public to follow.
“I was in China for 17 days, just came back and had a ball.”
Andy,
I’m happy to hear you’ve had a great time in China. Haven’t heard from you in months. Hope to see you back and posting at IHIQS soon.
All the best,
Victor
Timmy,
I.e. you are a real cad. I.e. this is what I worked on, today
Representing the Massive Graviton in the Metric Tensor
A. Beckwith1,
1) abeckwith@uh.edu, Chongqing University department of physics; P.R. China, 400014
Key words : strain, wavelength, gravitons, entropy
PACS : 14.70.Kv, 95.30.Sf, 98.80.-k
Abstract
We quantify the , , and contributions to massive gravitons in the metric tensor, with representing (1+1) geometry, and ~ 1/50,000 in magnitude to of (3+1) geometry. The non vanishing of the term representing (1+1) geometry contravenes predictions of no relic gravitational waves and makes predictions if the prior universe was a single event a la Steinhardt or a multiverse in the form suggested by Tegmark. I.e. change in the application of of inflation.
Ahem, TIMMY, when you take your head out of your rear end, and perhaps graduate to learning that anal cardinal relations is not the way to win a womans love, then I will be impressed
YOU SUCK , TIMMY 🙂
Andy
“I was in China for 17 days, just came back and had a ball.”
So he came back from China, and then he had a ball. He must have been glad to escape the oppression of communism. Communism is, after all, so awful that Yang Xi was willing to marry him to get away from it, and that’s bad.
Ade’s a prick. He said only a fool would believe me, but he said I was reinterpreting reality without mentioning what it was I said that was wrong, and he certainly didn’t prove me wrong. I proved my points. He didn’t. Only a complete cretin would believe him.
I think what you showed me is what your wife worked on. You’re just a passenger.

You said you could “ramp it up enormously.” When can we look forward to seeing you do that?

Hi all!
About Brennan,
I had not sat an IQ test with a psychometrist. Although going by what seems right to me, being civilized: comments with abomination are not kind. Please could someone fill me in on two issues:
1) Is this atmosphere: swearing, criticizing emotionally a normal part of some high-iq societies?
2) I had not read much of what Brennan has written. Could you point me to Brennans comment where/if his comments were rude.
All the best.
1) Yes.
2) I was ejected from the International High IQ Society so I can no longer read Brennan’s comments, but I do remember that he never, ever demonstrated intelligence and he once said that an interdimensional portal opened in his bedroom. Whether Brennan was rude doesn’t matter. Whether he was intelligent does.
Thank you Timothy, for you reply.
On issue number 2, it does still greatly interest me, whether or not intelligence has anything to do with being rude. )
Brennan’s posts demonstrate that he is most certainly not intelligent. As for rudeness, it’s possible to be rude in an intelligent manner. I think I proved that, just a little. Presence of absence of rudeness does not indicate intelligence, but rudeness is not incompatible with intelligence.
You’re not going to get laid anyway because of your IQ, so why cheat?
LOL!
I’m not a member of any of these societies, but came to know of them via mingling on open chat lists.
I think Brennon possibly did do a lot of damage to the reputation of IQ societies, but I wonder whether, on reflection, people from those societies should see his contribution as a major gift.
Why were so many taken in by Brennon for so long? Why did so many participate in the societies that he set up?
Was his egotistical and ridiculous carry-on not a fair caricature of the inward culture expressed by many of these societies?
Apart from being inappropriate in many other ways, I wonder if attributing the word ‘genius’ to very high IQ scores has a negativce – disasterous even impact on those who discover they score at very high levels.
Need a genius do any more? Isn’t a genius already at the highest station this species can muster? Looking in the mirror, does someone who feels rightly elevated to genius, wonder what point there is accomplishing great things, when in his mind, it’s as if he’s already done it?
Already compared to Newton and Einstein, the psychology might be that the profound breakthrough has already happened. The rationalization that, ok it hasn’t actually happened, but it could happen. Any time. And it will be easy.
But reality – the nature of it – isn’t like that. There are many traits a genius must exhibit. A high IQ is one of them, but by no means the only one. Is it the most important?
Well, it would be easy – and perhaps reasonable – to speculate that it is. But on the other hand, who is listening to that speculation? Listening is a social phenomenon.
Reality herself really doesn’t care one way or the other which trait we think is most important in changing the world. All of them have to be there for a genius to become. One missing and it doesn’t happen. So as far as Reality is concerned all the traits are equally important.
Taken together, most of the other traits, strongly indicate that accomplishing great things is hard. Really hard. Getting the insights necessary to break through to the next level of science-standard understanding, means putting yourself through years, maybe decades, of struggle.
Travelling, living in jungles, climbing mountains, tripping out on LSD and speed, making a fool of yourself, becoming an outsider, being ridiculed and seeing your insights trampled. All par for the course.
The reality of that hardship…that struggle…is masked before the person who does very well on an IQ test. The notion of being a genius drives an inward culture in these societies, of celebration. Of discussions and dreamings of ever more amazing self-descriptions. In doing so they create their own inward reality. A reality great discoveries are made about. But it is not the reality that encloses us.
A by-product of these cultures is a sense of Easy. A great discovery should be easy. Our genius should make it easy. If it isn’t easy, isn’t that saying something about our genius? Surely if we were even more ingenius it wouldn’t be so hard.
As such, the concept of Easy becomes one of those impressions passed between the members of such cultures. The hint being, I would find this hypothetical great accomplishment we are collectively thinking about, easy. If I say it would be hard, won’t you or someone else, chime in how you’d find it easier. Won’t that be a knock to my genius?
The concept of Easy. In a world that’s Hard, that’s a pretty disasterous thing. For you I mean. Disasterous, in terms of what might have been.
What is the true take-away from discovering one has a very high IQ. It’s something like, wow…this is amazing. It means there’s no glass ceiling. It means if I get out there and do it. Really do the struggle, and fight for those insights and that theory. Give my life to it, hit 40 struggling for it, and beyond if necessary. If I do that, then when the time comes, this test has told me that my mind won’t let me down.
That’s it really. Apart from that, it’s nothing much. But that one little thing…is so beatiful…if it HAPPENS.
What’s Brennan doing nowadays?
Doing stand up comedy before the mirror?
