I saw (whatever, whatever whatever) in a.g.mk .. you should really
add (whoever) to the Lamerz page.
I should have made it clear that, although I had originally planned to surf
the newsgroup looking for potential lamerz, I have since decided against
it for two reasons.
1) I felt that it would only lead to more flaming and from what I hear, there
is enough of that on the newsgroup already.
2) About two months ago, I lost access to all newsgroups (got a different
provider) and couldn't read or post there even if I wanted to.
Intro (by WorknMan)
Yesterday (November 26, 1995), I got an email that had 2 UKCs in it - one for Mileena and one for
Rain. After going to the arcade and finding out that neither of them worked,
I finally decided that I'd had enough, and so I have created this page. The
MK3 Lamerz Page is made for those asswipes out there who are so hungry
for attention that they have to spread bullshit rumors and codes that don't work
and there are those of us who are sick and tired of it and we feel it has to
stop. Why does it bother us so much? Well, it bothers me for three reasons.
1. It misleads players into thinking that there are codes or moves out there
that exist but really don't.
2. These days, about the only confirming I do is going down to the arcade and
confirming that moves don't work .. it gets really irritating.
3. I get tons of email asking me how to do stuff that isn't even real and doesn't
exist.
So, as much as I hate to do this, here it is. The following people are a DISCRACE
to all MK3 pages on the 'Net and to the game itself. These are the lamerz who
have taken the time to write down things that I guess they just sat down and
thought up. Feel free to drop them a line (or several lines) and let them know
that you don't appreciate their efforts.

How to be added to The Lamer List
You will be added if we find out you have been spreading bs. This includes,but
is not limited to:
1.Nudealities
2.Any move whether basic or finishing, that does not work
3.Bogus UKCs for any character
4.Any false information for any of the MK3 arcade or home versions
5.You are caught using any information from a FAQ writer's page who reports
you, without giving proper credit. In other words, stealing. This includes
you, gaming mags!!
This includes, but is not limited to, email sent to anyone who writes a page on MK3,
or anything given out on irc #mk3.
If you have something and you're not sure if it works or not, don't be afraid
to send it to any one of us but label it as *unconfirmed* and if it doesn't
work, you will be spared.
How to be removed from The Lamer List
There are only three ways you can be removed:
1.You have to prove that the move or code that has been marked as bogus actually
works. If you can do this, you will be removed from the list and an apology
section will be added with a public apology for adding you.
2.You send an email to the person who added you here which is a paragraph of
50 words or more apologizing for spreading bs and for being such a lamer.
3.If you were added here for stealing info, then you must give proper
credit in your page or faq to the person that you stold from. This includes
their name and whatever info you took.
If you fail to do either one of the above, you will remain on this list forever!
The Lamerz Strategy
I think I've finally come up with a reason of why lamerz do what they do. They
are obviously in such need of attention that they have to have their name up
in one of our web pages. But instead of playing the game and actually trying
to find something useful, here's what they do. They'll see a UKC or move or
something on somebody's page, copy it down, and send it to one of us saying
"I have the (insert bs here) ... so GIMME CREDIT!! I would warn all lamerz ..
BEWARE! just because you see a move or code on alt.games.mk or somebody's
web page does NOT mean it works, most of the time, it doesn't!
Go to the arcade, confirm it yourself, THEN
write us about it. If you don't follow these simple instructions, you will
eventually find yourselves in these pages.
How to tell truth from bs on the newgroup (alt.games.mk)
I think we've all been there. You see the header that says HUMAN SMOKE
FOUND!!!! And you sit there and go, "hmmmmm .. how do I know if this is
real or not?" Well, here's a few tips to help you along.
It's probably not true if ..
If it's a nudeality.
I might add that some lamerz have gone as far as to say "this has been
confirmed by Ratman, Druboy, etc." Don't believe these posts. If the post
isn't written by the same person who is said to have confirmed it, go to
that person's page and see for yourself.
LAST WARNING TO ALL LAMERZ!!! I say again .. DO NOT send a
move to someone and call it confirmed just because it was on somebody's
page. A guy was flamed a few days ago because he saw a fake Ermac
friendship on SegaSux's page and posted it ... baaaaaaaaaaad move!
Someone raised a question that goes something like this:
Why put up a bs page for people who like to spread rumors and fake
photos? It just stirs more interest in the game. I mean, come on ..
it's just a game! Get a life!!
Imagine if will, that you are the author of an MK3 page (back when people
were actually playing the game). You get an email saying "I have Reptile's
acid puke fatality." Wanting to get the move on your page before everyone
else, you head down to the arcade to try it. You find out it doesn't work.
Then, you get five people emailing you either asking you if that move worked
or telling you "I have Reptile's acid puke!!!" .. and it was the same
damn one that you just tried. Now, imagine you get an email
the next day saying "I have Ermac's friendship!!" You drive all the way
down to the arcade again, only to find out it doesn't work. Now,
imagine if you will that you get at least one email like this every day.
Wouldn't you imagine that you would get tired of testing shit that didn't
work day after day after day? Well, that is the only reason I ever started
writing this page. The bullshit fats and UKC codes were an everyday occurance and
the drive to my arcade is 15 miles there and 15 miles back. I
don't care about humiliating people, I just wanted the idiots to stop sending
me moves. Even worse though, is the barrage of email I get asking "How
do you do nudealities?" If some lame fuck hadn't started the rumor, then
nothing like that would never happen.
Now, as far as the fake photos, I have no problem with them .. so long
as you're not stupid enuff to mail me and try to convince me that they're
real. Nuff said?
The Bottom Line
Don't spread any bs in any way, shape or form. If you are caught, I WILL make
a public example out of you. . It's really
a shame that I have to take the time to do this, but some people out there
are so immature and idiotic that I find this to be necessary.
Send any comments or suggestions to me: worknman@rat.org
Disclaimer: All bs moves and codes are tested for inaccuracy before anyone
is added to this page, unless otherwise noted.
In the event that one of these moves or codes actually
does work, I will add an apology section to this page as well as send them a
personal apology through email.
