http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centre_for_the_Talented_Youth_of_Ireland I dunno if this's been mentioned on boards already (the reference to Phase 5 means it's pretty recent) just thought you might wanna see this.

Karlusss · 18-09-2005 2:25pm

That's pretty good.

In fact, very good.

The inclusion of "The Game" is an utter disgrace. "Recurring" theme my ass. I'll remove it from there at some point, if I remember to.

I was rather disgusted.

Also, it seems to have been added to by some rather bitter people. NPOV hasn't exactly been preserved

Hugh Hefner · 18-09-2005 4:59pm

Have you read the page about The Game? It's really interesting. I didn't think it was such a big thing. Does it belong in the C.T.Y.I. traditions? After next year it probably will, but not this year.

Undergod · 18-09-2005 5:18pm

Placed my thoughts on the discussion page.

Not terrible page, but needs a rewrite.

Shiney · 18-09-2005 5:29pm

Strategies involve placing "The Game" signs in bedroom windows

hee hee
My room:D

Raphael · 18-09-2005 5:40pm

That's a really fucking stupid article. It's in no way about CTYI, it's about CTYI session 2 05

nosmo · 18-09-2005 5:45pm

also, someone seems to have butchered it in the act of editing it

LiamD · 18-09-2005 5:51pm

It's clearly written by the guy who built the cup pyramids.

Raphael · 18-09-2005 6:27pm

That's probably it, considering it has more weight than anything else in the culture part.

Edited to refer to CTYI in general, not just s2 05. Game and pyramids are removed and usage of the word Ultimate is added

Piste · 18-09-2005 6:29pm

The replacing of the word ''last'' with ''best ever'' only occured this year. Áine and Viki came up with it I think.

nosmo · 18-09-2005 6:56pm

It would probably be best to add comments pertaining to the article to the "Discussion" page for the wiki entry, that way it can be edited accordingly by others (or do it yourself)

Piste · 18-09-2005 7:12pm

Laziness/tiredness/apathey prevent me from doing anything productive. I prefer to whinge.

Knowing the guy i doubt this.

Jack Lynch · 21-09-2005 6:50pm

Yeah, he doesn't even enjoy replying to texts. Typical Kerryman.

Should there be some mention of complaining about canteen food, or the other disco songs, or the Talent shows? It's kind of hard to think of 'tradtitions' that weren't invented this year.

Waht about the staff-student games? Or Eoin Carolan?

Awayindahils · 21-09-2005 11:10pm

the year that i was a newbie makes me an oldie but on that point i didnt know anyone had set a time or such to make an oldie or anything like that.

guX · 22-09-2005 12:34am

I think a summary of the daily/weekly schedule should be included in the article.

Mr.D.Leprachaun · 22-09-2005 3:43pm

I think your ma should be included in this article

I know for a fact that it isn't. Because someone came up to him in the last week and asked for permission to use the cup pyramids. So unless he controls two people...
And for future reference, it's "yore ma", not your ma.

Yeah, it's a bit badly phrased. It presumably changes between years. Silly.

I've got a Northern accent so if I were to spell it phonetically twould be yeer maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

KieranusTyranus · 24-09-2005 5:18pm

I have said it so many times its Your Mother not yore ma.

Mr.D.Leprachaun · 24-09-2005 8:33pm

Leave my ma out of this! :mad:

RefulgentGnomon · 24-09-2005 10:32pm

...and i'll leave this out of yore ma.

Hobotastic · 25-09-2005 12:38pm

Is that reference to Ultimate Dolphin Appreciation something to do with the sign i had in my window last year? The one with the picture of a dolphin, and the words "Dolphin Appreciation! YEAH!" written on it? If so.... *feels proud*

Starbabe · 25-09-2005 8:40pm

What!! No mention of Cross Dress Wednesday or Bare Foot Friday or Random Licking Day or the signing of the note books or orgies .. or..or....

Feral Mutant · 26-09-2005 5:26pm

To be fair, bare foot day didn't really take off this year, what with us being made wear shoes and my feet getting sore.

Jack Lynch · 26-09-2005 7:39pm

How about 'the T stands for tsmart'. And what's all that about CTY Irrelevant?

Raphael · 26-09-2005 8:23pm

That would be disambiguation

Disambiguate

Don't dis ambiguation! :mad: Ambiguation's the best!

It stands for *S*mart damn it! There is no T. It's ****ing silent!

Mr.D.Leprachaun · 27-09-2005 8:40pm

And invisible.

Outcast · 27-09-2005 9:39pm

Hmmmm, I could get crazy indignant but instead I will rest safe in the knowledge that we're better than you! And that T is for...

Love · 27-09-2005 10:49pm

Smart!!!

Love · 27-09-2005 10:50pm

Ha! Nicely said Outcast!

Raphael · 28-09-2005 7:31am

It's a silent t, like tsunami. tsmart

It wasn't me! · 28-09-2005 3:14pm

Yeah, but unlike tsunami you don't pronounce it at all or write it, It's smart. Besides, the whole point of it was that the T would have no appearance bar that phrase.

Tsunami doesn't have a silent T, it's just pronounced softly.

Love · 29-09-2005 6:40pm

It's Smart

The amount of people who didn't know the word exited until last December....

Will this post lead to all-out warfare between the 'tsmartists' and the 'smartists'? Carlow (well, Bill) has already threatened a bombing campaign.

Outcast · 29-09-2005 7:16pm

To be clear I am, neither a tsmartist nor a smartist. I am a talentedist!

It wasn't me! · 29-09-2005 7:38pm

yes, and wrong!
