Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
this thread is a safe place to store your sandbox posts. why this thread, you ask? the sandbox could go down at any time. biden could pull our troops OUT of the sandbox without any prior notice to members of the coalition. bloobers could attack smogon and take it down and raid the cache
think of this thread as like the posting equivalent of keeping your money under the mattress iinstead of in the bank, where rich people can play with it. i for one don't want to let admins have their wicked ways with my posting materiel (no typo) in the matrix, when instead i could safely store it here in the smogoff sandbox. if your money is under the mattress then probably the only thing that could go wrong is like a fire or something. i guess a mod burning down this thread would be like that. i can't guarantee there won't be a fire in this thread. or i guess you could forget your money is under the mattress and then move out and if the place was furnished you leave all your money behind. so don't forget about your posts in this thread. you could click the option to watch this thread to stop this from happening. thats probably what i would do. or bookmark the thread. if this thread is on your homepage then you probably won't forget about it. also you can trust me as an independent posting arbiter and i wont lift any of your posting ideas. this is like in public and fully transparent so if i were stealing any posts anyone would know about it. anyway so just post your posts here. i think its better.
also this thread was originally in my sandbox so the OP is NOT devoid of content because it is in itself an example of the posts this thread could contain.. just covering my ass from the Mods.
mod edit: your postport seems to be in order... all your postpers are notarized... let me look your poster's visa up in the system. yep, your post has content. you made it through post border control!
- your xenforo wrapped: the top five xenforo forums you used this year
- thread where users describe their time in the womb
- favorite flavor of toxic sludge? poll & discussion activity
- what if (item that cant bleed) could bleed?
- smogon squid games

your smoking sexy barbie mod squad has been keeping a dark, reputation-ruining secret from the smogoffian people for too long… since july, quite literally everyone has been silently begging the question: “what happened to Posting Idol?” but nobody wants to ask out loud for fear of what they might hear…
i am releasing the answer from the vault, aka my own sandbox thread. i can only hope the community forgives us, and that the barbie mods forgive me…
introducing: posting idol — the audition week that almost sank smogoff
———
LADIES, GENTLEMEN, and GENDER NON-CONFORMING EARTH WALKERS…
Posters from all across the country are looking for their opportunity to write their own future.
And Posting Idol is that opportunity!
“I’m a strawberry farmer, but the dream
is to be a Poster and pursue Posting.”
— BP
“I’m doing this for my brothers.
And I don’t even have any brothers.”
— Bog Monster
As judges of Posting Idol, Ivy, Kalalokki, and antemortem
are always looking for great artists that are willing to take that first step.
It’s a very difficult thing to do, to put yourself and your Posts out there…
But these stars in the making have to trust in themselves.
“I’m here to show the world my gift.
I wanna make Posting my career.”
— Estronic
“I’m here to show you can change your life
and rise as high as you’re willing to dream.”
— GatoDelFuego
This season, watch those dreams take flight.
This is the place where superstars are born.
Because this… is Posting Idol!
“Where I’m from, we have two stoplights
and a Piggly Wiggly.”
— Durant
As we gear up to comb every corner of the country,
looking for the next best thing in Posting…
we’re ready to give everyone a chance
to own a piece of the Smogoff dream.
Below are the official judges’ critiques for each of the Posting submissions we’ve received. These critiques come from the Posting Idol judges and are not representative of the opinions or thoughts of any Smogoff users or staff.
Posts that receive3 Green Thumbsfrom the judging panel will be invited to Hollywood Week (all-inclusive Greyhound bus ticket included if living in the states, if not… good luck I guess?)
Posts that receive Red Thumbs will be flushed down the Smogoff community latrine.
Posts that receive Curious Thumbs have a small chance of proceeding to Hollywood after passing a Psych evaluation.
Without further ado, let’s get to our auditions!
BP ("The CBG CRSHR")
7/10, absolutely quality crunch (there has been some dispute if he's crunching nuts or cabbage, but what is UNDISPUTABLE is the CRUNCH ITSELF), nobody in the expansive history of Posting Idol has ever left it all on the stage like BP's spit and cabbage crumbs.
CaffeineBoost ("The Idol Poster")
5/10, this was a clever attempt, but required two posts to bolster their humor, so I had to dock some points for that... unfortunate. Trust your instincts next time, dawg. er shit I'm supposed to be Paula Abdul.
"Trust your instincts next time... baby?" whatever issa no lmao
Mace ("The Crayon Sucker")
3/10, pretty confused, I'm missing the "star power" of this Poster... not enough for me. No.
Estronic ("The Jenny from the Block")
8/10, HOLY SHIT, this user came out of left field with this bar -- this is a Post like I've never seen because it's got class, verve, AND nerve without wasting any time with punctuation. You must be a song writer, and if you're not one, you *must* be a song writer. The world will go catatonic without your contributions.
Total Clefairy ("The Post Burglar")
2/10, I'm pretty offended by TC's use of four separate posts for this competition, as those more deserving don't use even half that number of posts to get their point and talent across... My advice for you is to come back next year with a respect for your fellow competitors and the competition. This is NOT a game. no
Erphuan the Fluffy ("The Something")
1/1, hthis post is hella polarizing... there's something magical here... but at the same time i'm smelling a lot of sweat and shame... I could be convinced that this post is genius... there has to be an underdog for The People to vote for, after all...
Durant ("The Sox Pistol")
2/10, ?
gali ("The Gay")
2/10, i'd prefer if we didn't allow anyone so open and comfortable with their sexuality, especially in 2021, to compete with users that may be less comfortable and confident. don't really want anyone feeling alienated by the more """gregarious""" type if you know what i mean *nudge wink nudge* (no)
ThatOneSpork ("The Peoples' Spork")
6/10, here's where i stand, coming out the gate with a self-deprecating comment can be very jading for someone's Fellow Posters, but this one could be a real tearjerker, and i think theyve got something to absolutely SHOCK us in Hollywood... i'd like to see them advance to the next round
Bog Monster ("The Mog Bonster")
9/10, THIS DUDE IS ABSOLUTELY FCkiNG INSANE? BRINGING UP SUCH A PHILOSOPHICALLY POLARIZING CONUNDRUM SO CASUALLY IN THE SMOGOFFIAN REALM? plane ticket. hollywood. now.
Arhops ("The Scalp Bleeder")
4/10, do we need to call 9/11 bro yur scalp is bleending
Albatross ("The Hyper Linker")
6/10, points for confidence but i absolutely refuse to click the link. youre NOT giving me a virus today,but thanks.
sb879 ("piss")
5/10, most shows have someone obsessed with something weird. this could be our something weird? maybe the villain edit? do you have a headshot?
GatoDelFuego ("The Poster")
8/10, posting... but can he post even better next time?
SlowandBruh ("The Grateful A")
0/10, we need contestants for our "worst of" reels and this is perfect, thank you so much for showering, at least, before you came to your audition unlike the rest of the contestants
I got a 6 with a post that I made on March 5th when I was still trying to figure out how to use the emoji's that smogon has. Undeserved but appreciated.

Hey there everyone! Do you Smoggofers want to win 100 Dollars?! Y'wanna be a beautiful doggo, maybe?! Or are you just trying to keep it all?! oops I just realized I kept the mustard color, sorry Well look no further than
IT'S ONE VERY SIMPLE SETUP THAT WILL KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES!!!! If you want to sign up call 696-6969-NICE because I want promotion and I was just trying to the test the FEATURES (oh wow, big ass text! it's so hot)that this site has!!!!!!! http://superbad.com/1/parts/index.htmloh no, I shared a link! Anyways, this is the definition of a Smogoff shitpost. Go home
thread where i ask for ideas for the best inanimate objects for mimics to impersonate, keeping in mind the following:
-their skin is an adhesive to anyone who touches it; the mimic can selectively release creatures attached, but typically prefers to devour them instead
-they can alter their skin's pigmentation and muscle's structure, to take on the appearance of inanimate objects; they cannot alter their texture (but adhesive means touching a mimic will prob result in getting eaten regardless)
-objects with moving parts are generally too complex to maintain convincingly when supposedly 'put in motion' - however, the illusion of potential movement can be simulated (a lever connected to a defunct machine, for example)
-mimics are coarse-skinned creatures of about the size of a human, and can only condense and expand as much as a human could in terms of width and height, precluding items too small or too expansive (a half-life-2-style crowbar is out of reach, as is any structure larger than an outhouse)
people would post things for mimics to impersonate, and justification for that being the best. i would rate ones with reasoning; the rest would merely be mimicking an actual post of quality, so it's safest not to touch them.
i would then list some examples. might debut this with more detail in the new year
for now, ive got a different thread planned in time for the holidays...stay tuned.....
I thought about making a thread talking about everyone's earliest internet memories. Like for me mine is watching my cousin scroll through MySpace and also Stick men on crack on YouTube and Left for Speed / Left for Speed 2
