Illogi Classics - #8, Santa

A festive special in the series celebrating the best of Illogicopedia.

Santa Claus

This wonderful Christmas tale chronicles one young person's encounter with the fabled Santa Claus. It's a bittersweet tale embodying true Christmas spirit (in July) and a town in the middle of the kleptomaniac season:

"Tis the season to nick tellies."

I saw Santa once. It was at Tescos: he said "what do you want for Christmas? Ho ho ho?" And I said, yeah, three hoes. To do my gardening, of course. He still sent me whores though - he must be going deaf in his old age. Phew, what a Christmas that was, especially considering I was 9 at the time.

A Merry Christmas to all three of our readers

Well, it isn't Christmas yet, but this year's festive period is special. No, it isn't the Second Coming of Christ or anything like that, we've got a Chrimbo article competition for you all. Enter today and you could* win some Christmas pudding and a lump of coal!

Hurry, though. You only have until the 22nd of Ditzimber (that's December to sane people) to finish your article, so get writing.

Wikipedia denies existence of The Moon!

It's true! They don't have an article on The Moon!

No such nonsense at Illogicopedia, who have no problem accepting the existence of The Moon!

What's more, WP instructs me to return to The Moon! Who do they think I am, Neil Armstrong or something?

Illogi Classics - #7, The 'Where's...?' series

Another unsung classic from the annals of the Illogicopedia.

The Where Games series

The 'Where games' series was the very first article series on the Illogicopedia. Well, there's lots to choose from here and it requires a bit of clicking about but you'd better do it or you too might face the wrath of the Obese Possum.

The Where series is useful if you wanted to ask a question but found that talking to your computer monitor illicits no response. For example:

You: "Where's the blooming lavatory?"
Computer screen: "..."

Also includes the whereabouts of Osama, so if you are looking, US Government, hint hint.

Pickle results

The results for the Illogic Pickle 1.2 have finally been announced.

Sorry for the delay, the judges have been very busy recently...

Anyhow, to get more on the winners and not winners, see the results page.

Illogi Classics - #6, Live Article

The very latest in the series celebrating the unsung articles of Illogicopedian history.

Live Article

Very rarely does an article really communicate with the reader. The Live Article will do this and more besides - it will eat you if you aren't careful, you'd better believe it.

There's also a special message for Mr. T in there if you are brave enough to read that far, but be wary for this article can contaminate your system and haunt your dreams forever if you ain't careful!

Read the article as if it being read by Borat or Brian Blessed for extra oomph. Read in the dark if you want to be scared, but make sure there's nothing under the bed first.

Illogicopedia in Associated Content article

The Illogicopedia has been featured in an Associated Content article. We get our own section and everything:

Illogicopedia
The goofy, nonsensical wiki that is more entertaining to contribute to than to read. All of the pages on this wiki are complete nonsense, and they are proud about it. There are not many users, but this gives the community a tight-knit feel. Almost all articles are accepted, so long as they are not too obscene or random key-mashing. This is a fun, fun wiki, though the entertainment and educational value doesn't come near that of other wikis.

Other featured wikis are Uncyc, Wikipedia and Wikia. Thanks to technology writer Bo, the creator of the article.

The Illogic Pickle Mark 2

Well, the submission period for the second Pickle Prize is almost over. We'll get judging over the weekend and pick the overall best articles to win a pickle. Cool eh! You've got about a day if you're reading this on the 13th but chances are you're not, so keep your eyes on the forum post and we'll announce the results as soon as we can.

A final good luck to all entrants.

Featured website: Duck Propaganda

Duck propaganda official website

The first (and maybe the last) Illogicopedia spin off website, the website for both the Duck Clan and the Ducks for Ducks political party is an exercise in propaganda. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Created by Fonchezzz of Illogicopedia fame, the site is the official source for the latest Duck related stuff. The prospective Duck Clanner can view the party's laws as well as get more information on both the political party and the clan, which is all you can ask for really. Quack!

A must for Duck Clan fans and members alike. Be sure to sign the guestbook!

Illogi Classics - #5, Something

Something

Originally created as a tribute to the Greatest Website in the World, something.com, this was a companion article to the Example page. Indeed, the best revision of the page dates back to its creation on the second day of Illogicopedia's existence (existance?), making it one of the very first pages to grace the hallowed pages of Illogia.

You could argue that putting anything here would be acceptable but this is rubbish as this isn't the article for anything. It's the article for something - that is - not nothing. Or something. So, big up the greatest of the Illogicopedia thing series, the first and, some might say, the best - Something.

Illogi Classics - #4, Illogicopedia Pipeline

The latest in a series highlighting some of the best unfeatured stuff Illogic has to offer.

The Illogicopedia Pipeline

Illogicopedia would not be where it is now if it weren't for its pipeline, a complex series of copper tubes. Admittedly, these are often stolen by druggies and sold for cash but we shall not speak of them.

Much of the pipeline's history is shrouded in mystery: no-one knows who built it. It is inscribed in Ancient Nonsense which even the world's most insane mad scientists can decipher.

This article attempts to dispel the myths and to create a whole new one surrounding the fabled pipeline. It does so wonderfully: the incredible fishiness of the haddock the pipeline provides is translated brilliantly into Illogi article form, no mean feat.

Fish on.

Whoop de frickin' doo

Illogic's article count is now over 2,000. We would like to thank our contributors blah blah blah.

Next stop, Wikipedia... then, the world.

Raw corn.

IllogiTV... coming soon to a computer screen near you?

IllogiTV is a brand new project in the works that will last for years! Or, just fester like the podcast.

You can help make IllogiTV.

...by submitting stuff to be used!

This could be almost absolutely anything, from Jackass moments to reciting your favourite Francis E Dec rant. If you are a bit of a whizz at video editing, you can mess around with your footage too.

Just send me your footage, stuff on YouTube that might be good with a crappy voiceover or something, or just your ideas by commenting on this post!

More updates on the progress of the pilot episode coming soon...

Uncle Pete and Illogia ~ a tale of two wikis

This week, the Illogic-Uncyc collaboration project took a step further with the creation of an Illogicopedia entry on the Uncyclopedia database by our very own MetalFLower. Remember, Uncle P is head hittable just like Illogic, so feel free to edit the entry to a higher standard of nonsense!

May I also take this opportunity to welcome new users from Wikipedia, Uncyclopedia and just about anywhere on the web. The community are looking forward to your deconstructive edits.

Illogi Classics - #3, Large Concrete Structure

A series celebrating the unsung articles of Illogicopedian history.

Large Concrete Structure

This article has roots in the early days of the Illogicopedia and the Proboards forum which was used prior to the site's move to Wikia. Working on the historically successful format of taking puns and blowing them out of proportion, Large Concrete Structure is the essence of nonsense with its randomness and subtle article pimping.

The 'band' approach should not work. Yet it does because the pun overpowers it.

An article that will surely go down in history as an Illogi great if not just for the references to Woody Woodpecker, Tony Bear and Eeble Sonks. E. People will, in future, shout "Large Concrete Structure!" to express their disgust. Trust me. Nobody else does.

IllogiGames

As you may know, the IllogiGames front page has undergone a bit of a revamp and the project has seen some dramatic additions/expansion in the past week. So, you can now attempt to escape from a jail cell in The Getaway or enter the realm in er, Enter The Realm.

Enter the IllogiGames portal, mortal.

Illogicopedia is not Wikipedia

Illogicopedia is not Wikipedia. That's the advice from the heckspurts.

Elsewhere, with the demise of BJAODN on Wikipedia, its wiki is now open.

The Illogicopedia is now 9 months old.That's older than my dog! It's also over 9,000 minutes.

Did you know...

...Illogicopedia is the 105th most popular Wikia wiki, with over 1600 pages?
...that that's more popular than the Danish Uncyclopedia, the Swedish Memory Alpha and Pirates?
...Illogicopedia has over 50 active users, including 6 admins?

Remember to spread the word of Illogicopedia on the web. Extra points if you get a mention on television! Also, don't forget the official ?pedia forum/website banners.

Illogi Classics - #2, Click for free holiday!

A series highlighting the unsung articles of Illogicopedian history.


Click for free holiday!

The difference between this and those stupid newspaper holiday offers is that the Illogicopedian version isn't a load of rubbish. It's true, you really do get a holiday. You don't even have to pay anything, despite what the article says.

An integral part of the article is the feedback section, which is surprisingly positive considering the cheap destination on offer. It also has nothing to do with Euroipods whatsoever, though has a faint whiff of propaganda about it.

I still can't find out who this 'Somewhere' is though. I tried Googling for him, but to no avail...

Illogi Classics - #1, Example article

A new series highlighting the unsung articles of Illogicopedian history.

Example Article

From the guts of the Illogicopedian monster spewed the Example article - one of, if not the first article ever written for Illogicopedia. Perhaps the definitive Illogi article condensed into a short repetitive ramble: self reference, nonsense, blue and red links. All these are contrasted with sane sentences to ensure the reader does not literally become insane whilst reading the article. That's why sanity was written.

The 'See also' section would prove to be a lucrative method of expanding articles so they don't get eaten by Mexicans, thus saving many from the wrath of the werevolves. So in more ways than one, the example article would set a good standard for pages to come.
