Satsukage Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 [quote name='Masterof9puppets' timestamp='1282253025' post='2423472'] Sorry Satsu, but there's nothing mythy about 300 Others, please keep sig requests out of a sig competition, it's kind of annoying... [/quote] I know I was going on a limb here but it actually is a myth. There were 300 Spartans however they fought along side of many more allies and were thus not alone. They had an army of 1,500 men in the last battle. Yes, they were still gravely outnumbered, but the 300 part was a myth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marneus Calgar Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Gotta agree here. If we're allowed to do Norse gods and Greek gods because they're part of mythology then the Christian god is included. Also, if you guys want to talk about that, make another thread.

SinOfNemesis Posted August 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 (edited) [quote name='Caleb279' timestamp='1282259533' post='2423578'] Are you suggesting that God is a myth? Because I disagree, and I'm sure some would find this offensive. [/quote] I am sure that some people might find it offensive that people think Roman Gods and Norse ones are a myth too. So really any godly creature falls under a category of myth and that does not include the believes of those who believe otherwise, since there are people who would agree and disagree probably about any myth. [quote name='Satsukage' timestamp='1282259798' post='2423582'] I know I was going on a limb here but it actually is a myth.

Yes, they were still gravely outnumbered, but the 300 part was a myth. [/quote] Well according to wiki: "Aware that his force was being outflanked, Leonidas dismissed the bulk of the Greek army, and remained to guard the rear with 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians, 400 Thebans and perhaps a few hundred others, the vast majority of whom were killed." Coming from here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Thermopylae I know that's not really the most reliable source, but do you think you can make another entry? I am willing to hold off the voting until you do so.

Same deal applies here as to Satsukage. If you want to remake it, you have around 12 hours, I'd say. All others can enter their sigs until the voting is up.

[/quote] It's not removed because it's not a myth. It's because all it was an untouched photo of a RL masterpiece with a inverted font or w/e you call it. If you would like to use the same theme or the same image, you can, but you have to deviate from the original more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
