I believe ShadowRabbit just volunteered another myth.

Yays! Isn't this *interesting*

And so long as I'm not doing the actual work I really don't care how pointless or interesting the results are.

Also; I'm wondering this as I've asked this before; in JJ1 is it possible to get all of the items and enemies in Tubelectric 2 and Sluggion 2?

Kays thnx

Well, first I asked a hobo if he knew how to get to Sluggion, and he said no.
We tried to replicate the levels in the JCS and failed. We played the levels in JJ1 and had a great time, which was amazingly fun

In the end we said to heck with actually editing the levels in JJ1. So:
MYTH: BUSTED

Spaz as Favorite?
 

Is Spaz really the most favourite playing-character from the average JJ2-fan?
For this question we have opened a poll and this are the results:

Jazz Jackrabbit 21.21%
Spaz Jackrabbit 60.61%
Lori Jackrabbit 6.06%
I have no opinion / I do not wish to vote / I can't make up my mind 12.12%

It is obvious. Spaz is really the favourite one. This myth is Confirmed, with thanks to everyone that has voted! Thank you!

End result: Myth CONFIRMED

You're wasting time. There have been plenty of polls showing that more people choose Spaz to play with because he can jump higher and has a better special attack (In their opinion). I think JazzBusters needs to be busted...

About 75 myths are tested.
Thanks for your help!

"About 75 myths are tested.
Thanks for your help!"

I think this myth is more than likely busted.

I would post something like this, but it seemed rude... :p

Oh for chrissakes stop being such a bunch of negative nancies, they're doing a (-) good job, if you can't handle the fact that they're actually willing to test these things, go post in another thread.

Ditto.

I'm not being a negative nancy on them personally or their Jazzbustering(which has greatly improved since the J2O downloads phase), I'm just being a negative nancy on their claim of 75 myths.
Let's make a deal: You stop being a drama llama on people being negative nancies, and I'll stop being a negative nancy on their ridiculous claim of 75 myths busted.

RULES JAZZBUSTERS

Oops, we've forget something: the rules!

1. you may also test myth and place the results on our tread, but do not place rubbish. No suggestions and no complains.
2. each myth that you've tested needs a clear result (Busted, Plausible or Confirmed)
3. do not give us ideas for myths on the thread. If you want to get an answer for a myth, please send an Private Message to us or test it yourself.

That's all.

Greetz,
Peter

Here's the re-test of the Trigger Myth from the first page. Read and learn if you haven't done so.

By the way, the key to a good and working profession is to be able to take criticism, be it good or bad (especially the bad). As I read the first rule, I get the feel you're like "We're professionals, you're just idiots, neener neener neener".

Woo! Go JELZE! :p

Well...you've got a point, will this deal involve candy in any way, shape or form?

NEW MYTH!

new myth :O :O ???

lets see what happens.... after the advertisement break :cool:

This JazzBusters guy is SERIOUS?

Will an admin please let me change my score in "Rate our JazzBusters" thread to 3 ktnxluvbye

For some reason, I have the strange idea that this started their idea... :O

Is that really the best of methods? Shouldn't you be counting out the nonactive accounts or the accounts that don't have any posts, and all the accounts that are multis/old versions of active people's accounts? I mean, that number is kind of misleading, when you take into account how many people have old versions of their accounts which they have lost the password or email for, and how some people used to be fond of creating fake new accounts for pranks, and how many of the people were just random new people who left after making a thread or two.

Almost every person here has created at least two accounts.

Not only that, they're taking opinions and are treating them as facts, which is a big no-no when it comes to researching. Plus, they've made another mistake of confusing "success" with "popularity". Success is when you achieve a certain expected goal, popularity is based on how many people like a certain thing. With those two in mind, let's try again:

Myth
Jazz2Online is a success (in what view? Amount of members? Downloads? Features?)

Experiment
Ask the creators if they think it's a success.

Plain and simple. Now the other:

Myth
Jazz2Online is popular (another statement influenced by opinions)

Facts
Over 4 years, J2O has 171 pages with 30 User Accounts each, plus 17 on the 172nd page. That makes a total of 5147 Accounts. (Not all of them are active however. Estimate?). The downloads section has 111 pages with 20 dowloads each, the 112nd has 2. That makes a total of 2222 downloads (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Experiment
Compare those facts with fan sites for other popular games, like Unreal, Sonic, Mario, the works.

Plain and simple.

Eh, yeah. Some of them have left years ago. Can you imagine :p

- JelZe GoldRabbit =:3

Jazz2Online is like a tree, on the whole it looks impressive, but 99% of it is dead.

[s]And one day Faw will sell us all to a logging company[/s]

That is but right!

I would want to test that myth, I think it's rather wrong - most sections are regularly updated in some way. But then again, reality is silly for intervening when a statement just sounds *good*.

Go Quisto.

Doesn't it also depend on the time? If it was 6 years ago todays fan sites would have been considered higher quality.

Well, all we need to do is count the number of accounts that have posted here in say, the last year. We call these 'alive' and we see what percentage they are.

Probbably between 10-20%, but I'm only guesstimating.

That are the figures for almost any big forum. It doesn't say much.

It says there's a lot of dead wood that needs cutting.

Log out!

My Rephrasion:
A lot of dead wood that needs BURNING.

What is that supposed to mean?

ZAPPER's Glitches
 

Zapper have sended us 35 gliches. We will test them for him. No description of the test, because the file will be too long then. Only the end result.

It's quite ironic for you to say that.
