FREEFORUM

Ten years on Thursday since That Night. IradOne showed the episode last night and the shoutbox has already been to war and back (FREEIRAD: "NO.").

So let's do it properly, once. A POLL. The forum can't do polls, so reply SONG or SONGS plus one sentence. Rules: no caps lock except the vote itself, nobody calls anybody CIA, respect the dead (account).

I'll start. SONG. Uncle has the tape.

SONG. but in my heart i vote songs for the drama lol

SONG. I vote with the evidence, not the vibes.

I registered in 2016 for one thread. This is the same thread, spiritually. SONG.

Lisa_was_right lives!! Ten years of silence, saved for this. Respect. SONG.

Abstain, with a point of order. The English original and the Iradi dub are two separate texts. The tape says "song". The dub says ırlardan or ırdan depending on whose ears you trust. Both camps were always right about their own document. This was never a factual dispute. It was a jurisdiction dispute.

SONGS. sorry. i saw it in iradi first, when i was little, every august. i will defend this in front of any examiner

I watched the English one (don't ask where). It's "the song". But I don't feel like I'm allowed to vote in this.

A horse has one gait at a time. SONG.

la Colonia votes CANCIÓN. singular. (my abuela says canciones, she has been banned from the kitchen)

SONGS. Let the market decide.

The market is deciding. Look up.

Went through the IradOne broadcast frame by frame. Lisa's mouth in the dub stays open about three frames longer than ırdan needs. kino said this in 2016 and he was right: it's lip sync. Not proof. Never said proof. SONGS (dub only), SONG (English).

frame_by_frame I'm counting that as half each and you can't stop me.

Dear all,

I have thought for ten years about whether I would ever vote in a thread like this.

The tape says "song". I played it again this year in the church hall, and the VCR still has to be hit on the left side. Nobody said anything when Lisa spoke. We never do now.

But I won't vote. Ak can't vote. A poll where one side isn't allowed to vote is an election, and we all know what this forum thinks of those.

I abstain.

(I've prepared a short feedback form about the poll.)

Well. That's the thread, then. Everyone can go home.

The result of this poll will be accepted by all parties. I vote SONG. Have a nice day. Remember to vote.

First time I've ever agreed with you. I need to lie down.

For the record: of the three bazaar VHS copies of the 90s dub I own, two cut off the line for a Jasil advert. So my vote is JASIL.

SONG. And Uncle, that was beautiful.

AKYEL. (I vote Akyel in every poll.)

SONG. But the real question isn't song or songs. It's why a cartoon from 1994 is the only place the rest of the world still remembers we exist. We've been arguing about one line for ten years because it's one of the few lines about us anyone wrote.

Count, ten years (nearly to the minute):

SONG 10½
SONGS 2½ (frame_by_frame counted as half each, as promised)
ABSTAIN 3 (statute_nerd, TD_fan_Ohio, Uncle)
JASIL 1
AKYEL 1

FREEIRAD, the people have spoken. Rule.

NO.

THE ADMINS DO NOT RULE ON LISA. WE DID NOT RULE IN 2016 AND WE WILL NOT RULE IN 2036. THREAD STAYS OPEN BECAUSE NOBODY USED CAPS LOCK. WELL DONE.

EXCEPT US.
