Hausdog Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I know there's the so-called Nice Work guy, but all I see is a picture of some smiling guy in a suit with arms folded. Is it a video or something that I missed? Please enlighten me... it's been bugging me for a whizzile. Merci Quote

Hausdog Posted March 24, 2008 Author Posted March 24, 2008 Well thanks! I get it now. So he's just something imported from Something Awful? I can handle that explanation. Quote
The Coop Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Well thanks! I get it now. So he's just something imported from Something Awful? I can handle that explanation. Well, partially imported. The original image itself is from SA, but "Nice Work" wasn't put on image until Midee added it for posting here. Before that happened, he was just some unknown guy whose picture was floating around SA. Now he's some unknown guy who has a tag line Quote
Shadow Wolf Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Geoffrey Taucer claims to know who he is, but he posted neither proof nor bewbs to prove it, so it didn't happen. Either way, we don't know who he is, but he's definitely the official OC Remix mascot. Our own special meme. Quote

I can't find pics; I'm POSITIVE he's the actor who plays Luis in "Destinos: Introduction to Spanish," but I can't find the actors name or any good pics of him. Quote

Moseph Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Speaking of mascotship, NWG ought to be added to the list of characters who appear on the upper-right of the site. Quote

Which is seen by all comers to OCR not only forum regulars who would understand him. If you did have him I'm sure OCR would lose some of the credibility it has as a serious community and more like a forum run by teenagers on a whim. Quote

Hausdog Posted March 24, 2008 Author Posted March 24, 2008 but randomizing a number from 1 to whatever is really easy and it's not fair to make them check for stuff just so some people can get a chuckle Quote

Geoffrey Taucer Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 GOT IT http://media.mesa.gmu.edu/mcl/42_Destinos.wmv 34 seconds in. That's him. Quote

Geoffrey Taucer Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Yes. But I won the internet, so it's ok. EDIT: Besides, I still don't know his name; the video won't load all the way through for me, so I can't watch the credits and find out. Quote

Scufo Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Holy balls, the NWG has been identified sort of! Posting in an epic thread. Quote
The Coop Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Didn't we go through all this in another thread recently? After facial comparisons, I don't believe that guy is not the NWG. Plus, it's a pretty accepted concept that NWG is from somewhere in the Middle East, not Mexico or Spain. Quote
Kanthos Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I didn't watch the whole spanish video, just the first minute or so, and the guy in the video looks similar to, but not the same as, the NWG. The NWG looks like he's from India or Pakistan, not a Hispanic country. Quote

Wait. We're obviously talking about different sites here. because maturity is not a hallmark of the OC ReMix I frequent. See here here, here, here, and here for a few examples. Are we serious about our love for game music? Yes. Are we serious? No. Our forums aren't run by teenagers on a whim, they're run by the only man to ever beat Chuck Norris in a staring match on a whim. So there. Quote

Plus, it's a pretty accepted concept that NWG is from somewhere in the Middle East, not Mexico or Spain. The facial comparison you posted in the other thread used a shitty picture. Here you get a much clearer view, and aside from the gray heir and lighter skin (which could easily be a result of makeup -- and yes, even guy actors wear a fuckton of makeup when they're on camera), the similarities are much more evident. I'd like to see another facial comparison. If another facial comparison between this guy and the NWG finds that they aren't the same guy, I'll drop this theory once and for all. Quote
Imagist Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I don't know about anyone else, but that guy looks terribly unlike the NWG to me. Similar in a very generic manner, but not at all an exact match. When you posted the video and I checked it out, I had to triple-check the time you listed because I thought there was no way you could have been suggesting that guy was the NWG. Quote
