~*~ 47. SemiFinal vs Belarus ~*~
This topic shall serve as a log of my suffering, and as a chronicle of the final moments of my life should any cutscenes or plot twists prove fatally idiotic. - Semi on Xenosaga 3
Semi (alongside Popo, Aeon and AT) were at the pinnacle of high quality, snappy, rhetoric posts during the golden age of this kind of thing. These were guys who had the typing equivalent of a silver tongue and were almost always worth having their posts read. It could well be argued the staggered loss of these four was one of the major differences between the 2003 board and later editions.
Semi himself was the self-loathing, hate filled, cynic who embraced all these characteristics and made them part of his game. Despite his post-2003 departure he emerged in later years on his alt dorobou as a less frequent poster.
Points of Impact
-> Managed somehow to win a user contest despite having not even logged onto gamefaqs in over a year.
Notable Moment:
The hunt for Semi after his absence from the board was a strange one. Most users who leave fade away very quickly and are rarely mentioned again, Semi leaving the board just simply was not allowed to happen with Alanna in particular bringing constant reminders of him in his absence. Gaining so much notoriety on the board without doing anything at all is truly a sign of someone who left a lasting impression.
