"He must be a complete man and a common man and yet an unusual man. He must be, to use a weathered phrase, a man of honor by instinct, by inevitability, without thought of it, and certainly without saying it. He must be the best man in the world and a good enough man for any world...He is a common man or he could not go among common people. He has a sense of character, or he would not know his job. He will take no man’s money dishonestly and no man’s insolence without a due and dispassionate revenge"
Raymond Chandler
That quote from Chandler sums up how I roll. Having had our thought for the day, let's proceed with the business at hand: Cuntus McCollins and Dan Stokes.
Let's deal with that knobgobbler Stokes first since he's the most vocal of Collins' defenders.
He asked for specific points where my sonic was similar to Collins' build and in my last blog entry I gave them. I even numbered them for ease of assimilation, trying to keep it below 10 in order to avoid overloading his brain's processing power.
In response to this, he gave two half assed and quite lame reasons why the first two observations I gave did not count and incomprehensibly, threw in the towel just when things were getting interesting and posted the following:
"If the individual points on which an argument it based do not hold up, then the conclusion is invalid. You're saying that it seems clear that Rassilon re-cast CT's sonic. I'm asking you which points in CT's argument seem persuasive to you, and you're saying, look at his blog. If Rassilon is accused of re-casting, the burden of proof is on the accuser. CT has made his claims, it is up to us to evaluate those points. You are saying you are convinced. I'm asking what points convince you. If CT's claims cannot stand up to scrutiny, his argument is invalid."
So instead of doing what most normal people would do, and that is answer each point and argue them, he just makes a blanket statement that none of the points hold up without giving any reasons why they didn't hold up. Instead he asks everybody else to evaluate the points on his behalf. Incredible. Let's get this straight: The man asks for detailed points from me, reads through them. Decides to give the first two points a stab and then realising he's fucked, and he hasn't got a leg to stand on, decides to mumble something that all the points do not hold up and in panic decides to enlist the help of anyone else to help bail him out of the intellectual pit he's dug himself. You couldn't make this shit up. So Dan, instead of talking shit about how wrong I am, why don't you answer my points in the same format I provided them. And while you're at it, why don't you tell Roguescout he's also wrong?
After thinking some more (gee, it must have hurt), Stokes has go at refuting my claim that Collins' body blueprint reproduces the errors of mine. You guys have to read this, it's really, really special (my response in RED):
"The charge that Rassilon copied the innacuratcies in CT's sonic's body geometry doesn't seem to hold up to me. He says that Rassilon copied his design by replicating the flaws inherent in his season 4 Tenannt sonic. But I don't see this. Now that's a surprise. You're a cretin, of course you wouldn't see it.
CT's season 4 Tennant sonic (as he himself states) is inaccurate because he changed the main body of his season 1-2 sonic, but did not change the aluminum end piece (not the cap but the aluminum connecting piece that links the main body to the black end cap) thus making this section of the sonic too thin. Actually that is not what I said. I created my Tennant sonic by transposing the general diameters of the Season 1-2 sonic onto the new ridge shape. I also did a minor change on the lower neck but kept the diameters the same.
But, I don't see this inaccuracy on Rassilon's sonic at all. Then you are either blind or your closedmindedness has left you in denial. Any idiot can see how the lower end below the ridges starts to taper drastically on Collins' plans. Just like mine.
The reason why Rassilon's sonic appears inaccurate to any particular version of Tennant's sonic is because it uses the larger diameter aluminum end piece (that comes from the season 4 sonic) and combines it with a season 3 slider sonic body like that shown in Runaway Bride and Utopia --which has a shorter slider channel and thinner grip ridges. So, Rassilon's soinc is a custom interpretation of Tennants prop because it uses an idealized season 3 body and and idealized season 4 connector end piece. But CT's sonic uses an idealized version of the season 4 body and combines it with the connector end piece from his season 1 replica
Can you see what this idiot is doing here? He's trying to bamboozle with talk of different season sonic bodies and by doing so hoping you don't realise he's actually making it up as he's going along. Confused? I'm not. Stokes is refering to the intermediate sonic featured on Runaway Bride that featured a slider on a Season 1 body. Stokes is utterly wrong when he says that this sonic has thinner ridges. The ridges are the same width on all the sonics, just a different shape. He's only saying that to make it fit in with Collins' piss poor drawing. In effect he's saying that the Season 4 lower neck and collar are a wider diameter than the Season 1 version and the body below the ridges on the Season 4 sonic is of a wider diameter than the Season 1 body. Again, that is basically true. However he claims Collins' plans feature a larger diameter Season 4 lower neck and collar on a smaller diameter Season 1 body. Then how come the collar is actually the same if not smaller than the diameter of the lower body then? Just like mine in fact:
This single bit of artifice is enough to convince me and everyone at home that nothing this rectal wrangler is clearly full of shit and has no clue about what he is talking about."
Stokes proceeds to post the following up :
"This is not true. CT has posted lies on his blog before to discredit people he saw as his competition. He posted that I was working with Russell Brown to sell fan made Tennant sonics in an attempt to get Russ in trouble with MFX by making them think that he was selling their products through the back door to me. This was entirely untrue. There was no basis for CT to make this statement and its purpose was to discredit my sonic design, to implicate Russ in selling unlicensed Tennant sonics, and to raise my name as a point of interest for the BBC in case anyone was handing out CODs.
I actually had this info from some very reliable sources. Your denials don't make them lies. These are allegations that may or may not be true depending on proof. I believe they are. Funny how your talk of a sonic run went VERY quiet shortly after I mentioned this isn't it? I know both you and Russ are bent. I have proof Russ has been selling MFX's out of the back door for £140 a pop. I've let this lie for over a year. You want to dig it up? Really?! Do you know what kind of a bastard I am? Do not force me to do something both of you will regret. Take this one opportunity I am giving you and drop it. Now. I won't warn you again.
Now he's trying to bully Rassilon out of proceeding with his run by claiming that Rassilon is a re-caster. He has posted a list of claims that are supposed to support this assertion and it is my contention that this list be critically evaluated before Rassilon is convicted in the court of public opinion. I'm trying to critically evaluate this list to see what claims hold up in order to determine if the accusation as a whole is true. For one reason, because I know from my own experience that CT DOES post lies on his blog and two because I generally think that people are Innocent until proved guilty and any claim of re-casting on this board should be subject to such scrutiny.
Since when did I ever say I wanted Collins to stop his run? I just want him to stop using my design as reference and redesign his sonic with the stuff he's copied from mine changed. Nothing more, nothing less. I couldn't give a shit as I have a perfect replica coming out in the next few weeks. And yes, my list needs to be critically evaluated. So why don't you do it then? the list has been up for hours now, surely you might have found something to prove me wrong on. You fucking moron. Instead of relying on other people, put your money where your ego is and prove me wrong then you cunt. Enough with the talk, start scrutinising you hapless, brainless fool. I know you're trying but you're getting NOWHERE because my allegations are indefensible"
So there you have it. Dan Stokes has been bitchslapped. He asked for it, I gave it, and he couldn't deal with it. Nothing he says can be trusted and nothing he says has any relevance. He's a nobody, a jumped up punk who couldn't deal with the truth.
