I think he meant "wanting" as in "you've been found wanting" meaning "lacking redeeming qualities."
Right, ninja'd.

"Did anybody invent this stuff on purpose?" - Phillip Marlowe on tequila, Finger Man by Raymond Chandler.Moetan was fairly amusing, but yes-definitely the sort of thing (at least the anime) that needs to be cut, no matter how much the anime makes fun of itself.
I think he means the "Not measuring up to standards or expectations" definition.
...Eh, at least my ninja'd had a longer definition.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.I personally recommend just getting rid of it. Does anyone care about the original language aid thing? And unless locked the anime references will creep back in.
Ah, thanks for the clarification, y'all. It's getting a Devil of Porno/Pedo from me.
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.Doubtful. The other wiki suggests that it fails as a language teaching aid as well. Torching the page and locking it is probably the best solution.
"Polite life will fill you full of cancer." - Iggy Pop "I've seen the future, brother, it is murder." -Leonard CohenOkay, another that should be easy: Naruto Vengeance Revelations (no, I can't spell it like the author, the bad grammar makes my brain melt). It's a Self-Insert Fic. Lots of sex between...pretty much anybody. At some point, the author has Sakura self-mutilate because she cheated on him.
...I'll miss the horribleness.

Duck? What the hell are you talking about, Tomu?
Oh. OK.

Oh, this one... eh, it's fucked, as far as I'm concerned.
It's also very fucked up, but that's not the sole reason why I'm giving it a devilhead.

Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.Moe Tan and Naruto Vengeance whatever already have devilheads from me.
"Did anybody invent this stuff on purpose?" - Phillip Marlowe on tequila, Finger Man by Raymond Chandler.Oh, you've read it, Komodin? I'll pass you a beer for that. Also, the Brain Bleach.
"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerRegarding FATAL, is there any chance to keep it around as a locked and possibly stubbed article? It seems likely to get a third devilhead and I don't think there's anyone out there who actually likes it (I've heard that it's actually unplayable) but it might be useful to keep it around just as a description of what it is.

At the very least, I hope the old liveblog thread stays. (Are we doing anything with forum threads?)
The duck was a Moetan reference. I've never read any Naruto Crapfiction.
I haven't voted yet, but I'm actually kinda hesitant on giving it a devilhead. It being a tabletop RPG, a campaign doesn't necessarily have to involve anything pornographic, right?
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.Here's one on the queue that I'll bring up as a "keep." Patalliro. Back when we had the sandbox, I'd put it on there as a test case for satire and comedy, and someone apparently added it from there to the new system.
For keep, it is a Widget Series, the demographic is shojo or shonen (depending on whom you ask) despite that it has a fairly larger Periphery Demographic (some of which are creepy older men) in Japan. Rule of Funny with dips into Black Comedy and Comedic Sociopathy seem to predominate as opposed to Rule of Sexy.
For cut, it DOES have a bisexual 10 year old boy (who is the titular character) groping people and using sexual innuendo.
Personally I'd say keep, because it's played for Rule of Funny rather than Rule of Sexy, the primary target demographic is teenage girls (even if the Periphery Demographic is an issue), and as far as I know there is no explicit sex featuring the underage character beyond the gropes or innuendo. I would say this is probably closer to a Family Guy or South Park than a Lotte No Omocha.
(ninja'd) As for FATAL, eww. And somehow I don't think you can have a non-porn FATAL campaign, but at the same time, it's such an object of Bile Fascination I think it deserves to have its page kept, but locked.

?True. I brought that up earlier.
The game system itself does not contain sex, nor does it contain pedobait, at least as far as I know. It's just rules. Only the RP itself would contain sex.
However, there are an awful lot of rules geared towards sex. As Shima mentioned, the grappling rules contain dissertations on how to rape your opponent. Infants can have the same sexual attractiveness as adults. And orifice sizes include a modifier for children and infants.
On the other hand, I don't think anyone honestly uses this system to roleplay. The only time anyone tries to use it for a game is for the purpose of making fun of it. It's unplayably bad.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.The fact the game includes such mechanics is pretty damning.
Personally I would nuke that shit from orbit and let someone find it the hard way.

Who watches the watchmen?^ That would require someone to actually play FATAL though. No one does.
If you want to roleplay a pedo fantasy, you're better off just using some other rule system - really, any could be used that way. You'll spend far, far more time figuring out the incomprehensible rules than playing. And you wouldn't have any fun playing at all, because it really is that bad.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.Yeah, one look at the tropes page on FATAL will confirm that nobody takes that shit seriously.
That, and you'll end up solving quadratic equations when "playing" with this system.
Quadratic equations.
I still support lock and/or stubbed.

I think he meant wanting as in "lacking".
