That is an awesome interview! Glad that they mentioned in it that ATHF has already had some additional episodes after their cancellation, so hope springs eternal!

MH, what was the scandal that you mentioned?

Well, it wasn’t really a scandal and it didn’t really rock the site- I just wanted to give it a bit of flair. I honestly barely remembered it until I got close and I was one of the few who actually cared- still, voter fraud is never cool. Go back to the last month or two of 2010 and check out posts on a round robin (or something like that) of ‘who would beat who’. Pay close attention to the villains bracket.

Ok, so it was mostly in October of 2010, with a little in November. Anyway, you get the effect more if you follow the whole thing from start to finish.

Honestly I am just impressed that page still works. I don't know if it was a "scandal" as much as people got their friends to vote for stuff haha. Though I don't think the voting system was very sophisticated, so there was certainly the possibility of low level voter fraud (I have not inspected the ballots!)

No, there was- there was that guy who voted for Truckules a bunch more times than he should have been able to and almost got him to the finals because of it. That’s why Hatred was in both brackets- that was the only one that was for sure affected (though Monstroso’s loss probably was too).

I actually got to a more controversial point last night- Season 4.1, with all the Hatred … well, hatred. We got into some huge discussions about if all the pedophila stuff worked and what to even do with him. Those were some skinny threads.

I love this website. Mike's capsules and all the references that are archived here (with help from the community) have greatly enhanced my enjoyment of The Venture Bros. The community has largely been great (yes, there were some hot moments). Big THANK YOU to Mike for providing us all a place to gather.

Man, I wish I could figure out why I can’t log in because I want to give this a like. I finished my look back a while ago but I’ve been wanting to say something like this- as I went back to before I was The Mysterious ‘H’ (when I was posting as H), I noticed how much more confident and comfortable with you all (and myself and the internet in general) I was. So definitely a big thanks to Mike and The Mantis Eye Experiment for helping me become who I am and find my online identity (I use my Mysterious H identity most of the places I am active on the internet).
