Checked the site today and was shocked to see Marvin in 2nd place on the writers list.
Stunned and shaken, I then went to the forums and discovered that Marvin has been banned. I hated him so much. I hope he doesn't reappear again too soon with his racist crap and endless, pointless, irritating "advice". In 'real' life this kid must be a nightmare to live with.
I'm sure he'll turn up again in another guise but at least he's out of the way for the time being.

There is a God after all.

Excellent 5 star retort Sir!

On the Marvin subject he may have been a nutter, or he may have been a master spoof writer from the past but you have to admire the plain fact that he got to number two with only eight stories.

Given another week or two and who knows?

Caligula springs to mind.

I never realised he only wrote 8 stories. 8 stories (an a few articles)!
I gotta hand it to him, then - that is pretty impressive going. He must be an evil genius mastermind! How'd he manage it?
It's all in the story titles, isn't it? Ron Paul, Zac Ephron, Britany. Troble is it's sometimes hard to get your stuff read unless you first 'attract' in folk with a few popular names. My "Christopher Robin + Winnie the Pooh behind Tigger Zoo Attack" story only managed 50-60 views. And when I tried to tempt in readers with a Jamie Lynn story they just end up wanting more Jamie Lynn/Britany stuff and ignore the ones I'd like 'em to read. People sure are strange sometimes.

I wonder if the writers names appeared beside the stories on the front page of the spoof would Marvin have got as many views or would people have boycotted him?

JB

I invite you to consider these things . . . . :

Start with: "MARK LOWTON"

Take the first three letters: ('MAR')

add: half a 'W' (V)

Add half a 'T' (I)

Finish up with the final 'N' in the name (N)

The result is 'MARVIN'!

Add to that thought that officially, the one who controls the point counter is "Mark Lowton".

I believe 'MARVIN' may simply be a half-assed Mark Lowton!

Don't forget, Mark also controls who gets banned!

What I come up with is that maybe the new wifey has cut poor Mark off (figuratively speaking hopefully, and not a la Lorena Bobbit) at the bridal bed, and he decided to take it out on us unsuspecting Spoof writers . . .

Ah, the corruption of power!

Just a thought, but waddya think?

Gnarly

I very much doubt it, marvin was definitely American i.e. he uses American turns of Phrase and he don't spell too good either.

I think Mark is far too polite and certainly not OBSESSED ABOUT BRITNEY SPEARS VAGINA.

I think he does know who he is though.

Put your hammer away!

I always thought he wrote very well!

Why was he banned?

Reminds me of when William Shakespeare walked into a pub and the landlord shouted;

"OI! YOU'RE BARD!"

Are you saying our Marvin plagarized and sent in news items from professionals?

If so, boy have professional standards ever fallen!

Maybe he'll creep back in under another alias....

Persistent sorta type.

You must have deleted the cherry picked stuff because I've just been back and looked at what is still up.

Anyway who ever it was I'd say Marvin was Chester reincarnated and poppin pills. Same writing style and fascination with the royals.

Ferg.

I didn't think Marvin's content was particularly witty or intelligent, so he is no loss to an otherwise witty and intelligent site.

Marvin must be Mark Lowton, no question about it!

GB.

You know what i think? If Marvin isnt Mark Lowtown, then he's probably already on the site with a new alias. Dont worry, he'll surface and we'll recognise his writing.

Most of his stuff were about Britney Spears. Thats why he rose so quick.

That, or he got a new subscription to viagra!

(Would not know by first-hand experience, only his reputation as a "prick").

All I know is, he contributed to my Burst Appendix, which I had removed last Sunday. That's why I've not been on here, and look what's happened to my ranking.

I'm getting over it now, thanks. The appendix, that is.

Lucky escape with the apendix trouble, Monkey Woods. Few years back a friend of mine's burst while playing football. Nasty. Could've died.

At least Marvin can't send you any weird 'get well soon' messages.
Take care of yourself.

JB

Take care of yourself, Monkey.

I just got out of the hospital again. It got infected. That'll teach me to write stupid Indian Conkers stories. Recuperating now, so I might slip from view for a bit...

Marvin is back - you don't have to be a member of CSI to see the similarities in this story and the stuff 'Cheryl', I mean Marvin, used to write. Good to have him back I say. Great alias.

Oh yes, I reckon thats him all right. No racism yet tho, but straight up the top writers chart on 10 well-selected headlines as before.
Im holding my breath for the "personal" e-mails. NOT.

Set our secret weapon on him!
