Gonzo fans hold Stupid Contest

They should have remembered these wise words.....

If only Goncalol the Blessed had been allowed to present Stevo's stunning screengrab from Wayback, in which the month of May is, strangely, missing, then he would have Triumphed! But the judge was IN IT, along with Wayback, and everyone who's said, Stop talking bollox?

That appeal?

That's the one, Bonny.  It sounds so.....well......sad doesn't it?  Poor Gonc.

Hounder:

What was so significant on April 30th. i wonder? for that date to even show up?

Oh, it's a long shot, but it might just be because it's the last day of the month - you know, the day before May begins. The May that appears to have gone missing?

That May? The one between April and June, the one that is AWOL on Stevo's screenshot?

Just been playing around with the Wayback/Internet Archive's API's.

Haven't got anywhere to store the output online, but this link selects all index entries for the CEOP site on April 30th 2007 - http://web.archive.org/cdx/search/cdx?url=www.ceop.gov.uk&matchType=prefix&gzip=false&from=20070430&to=20070430

There are entries in there for news articles in the future.

To which sensible post another hounder wails:

So what does that mean?

It means you've all made complete plonkers of yourselves. Because for whatever reason, there was indeed a glitch at the business end of Wayback.

     

Are there still any disbelievers on there?

A hounder has wailed:

Maybe Steve will have some answers about it soon?

Should be a goodie, because he's made a total ar@e of himself - and so have they.

The answer is, Either a bit of coding went wrong, or someone messed up the calendar in some way. Or both. A glitch, in short.

How is he going to let them down when they have their hopes up so high?

Business as usual then....

Yup. And it's clearly never, ever going to sink in with the fools that the entire world does NOT revolve around the McCann case.

They may be obsessed with it to the point of madness, but to the rest of the world, it's very small beer indeed.

Is it me, or is that Richard D. Hall character not quite the full shilling?

Is it me, or has that thread gone?

No, they're still embarrassing themselves, Sabot:

It's a pity WBM have not given a full definitive statement on why they changed their original stance. I appreciate all the analysis, but we need a full technical disclosure from them which as far as I am aware we have not had.

I hate to break it to the conspiraloons, who are desperate to find some kind of bizarre plot in all this, but a bundle of eight year old press releases with the wrong date simply are NOT that important in the big, wide world.

'Full technical disclosure' indeed.

He might have gone to the Bennett School....  

It seems the whole thing has now been sorted out and LOGICALLY explained - and as anyone sane knew from the start, it was some kind of glitch.

Frankly, any hater that persists with conspiracy theories after this needs to check themselves into their nearest psychiatric hospital for treatment as a matter of urgency.

And personally, I have ZERO interest in knowing what caused it. To anyone except an obsessive hater, it is a matter of complete non-relevance and non-important; I am sure we all have more interesting things to do than pursue this, like watching paint dry.

However, I am pleased to report that some of the haters are continuing to deny the glaringly obvious, and turn logic, common sense and reality on their heads, and insist that they have uncovered some vast, over-arching, international conspiracy.

No, you're just nutz.

PS - that Richard D. Hall video person doesn't seem any too bright - indeed, a bit slow on the uptake. This may explain a lot.

I quite liked this bit.

“the information posted on the Wayback Machine is only as valid as the third-party donating the page decides to make it,”

I suspect a lot of the nutjobs are still flogging this dead horse, because they have the bizarre fixation that Madeleine vanished before May 3rd, so naturally, this horsesh*t reinforces their prejudices.

Let's suspend reality for a minute. Doesn't that make their beloved Gonzo look even more useless and inept than he manages himself, that he somehow missed this Big Clue?

They still don't even seem to have noticed that MAY is missing from the screengrab Stevo posted - though no doubt they will find a way of convincing themselves that that proves....something, Lord knows what.

This whole farce has only served to confirm just how stupid and desperate they are, frankly.

But they are much too stupid to realise.

Sez some Hounder sock:


Anyway, WLBTS used to love Occam's razor - SO, if you were to apply Occam's razor to this chain of events, which do you think would be the least likely explanation?

LEAST likely?

That this is some vast, overarching international conspiracy involving CEOPS, Wayback, the CIA, and doubtless Mossad and the Triads for good measure.

MOST likely? That there was a ball's-up of some kind at Wayback involving a bundle of press releases that are of zero interest to anyone except hater obsessives.

That's a good one, Bonny.  

It's odd how it never dawns on them that notorious game-playing WUMs and trolls like Blondie and McFadden are always involved in these things.

They NEED it to be true, Bonny, so they allow themselves to be manipulated every which way.
