Support NeoGAF

[SPDIF]

Grats on your account.

My real gamer friends have been waiting to get approved for months.


...So glad you're here.

Real gamer? Are you insinuating that he doesn't play games? Because you'd be wrong.

Okay, so why is he called "Major?" Does he actually have military experience, or is it more of a superficial designation, like Captain Crunch?

lol!

Captain Crunch.

I see this account approval as further evidence that there is a dGPU inside the Xbox One and GAF will be the first to know.

I mean, seriously.

If Major Nelson's gaming was any more real, it would be real.

It's a reference to a character in a TV show, that if I recall correctly, the actor recently died. He made a blog post regarding it a while back, I'll try to find it for you.

Actor was named Larry Hagman.

now that should be his tag

 

[Sir Garbageman]

I eagerly await Larry's refutation to famousmortimer's sexism/creep accusation towards fellow female guests in interviewed and podcasts.

What's this about...?

 

[def sim]

I'm not actually delicious breakfast, FYI.

Man, we finally got some Hyrb.

Major Nelson is a character in I Dream of Jeannie. That's where the name comes from.

At first :lol but then I cried.

 

[Captain Tuttle]

Everywhere outside of GAF I see it being called a "Sony Viral forum."

I don't get it.

Sony only fans are just the loudest right now that's all, they have every right to be excited for the PS4.

Anyway, welcome Major

 

[KillGore]

Welcome!

I wish Reggie and Yoshida were here.

Okay, so why is he called "Major?" Does he actually have military experience, or is it more of a superficial designation, like Captain Crunch?

How old are you, boy?

Major Nelson is a character in I Dream of Jeannie. That's where the name comes from.

Nope

 

[ElTorro]

Anyone taking bets? I say he lasts a month...max.

 

[MikeE21286]

But have you seen Major Nelson's posts

 

[Toppot]

Welcome aboard Major, the seas can be a bit rough but I hope you have a pleasant stay.

 

[AkimbO_Arcana]

This thread is hilarious. I am literally eating popcorn right now

 

[EviLore]

Answer me one question. What was the date of his gaf application?

He's been attempting to register for the last year, and had at least two applications rejected, as per a statement a couple days ago on Reddit. When I was made aware of this I took care of it.

Not that who I let into NeoGAF needs justifying.

 

[Bsigg12]

He took the name from the show "I Dream of Jeannie" I believe.

 

[twinturbo2]

You see what happens, Larry? THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FIND A STRANGER IN THE ALPS!!!

 

[Fuzzy]

How old are you, boy?

Exclusive Shantae DLC confirmed!

 

[GavinGT]

Okay, so why is he called "Major?" Does he actually have military experience, or is it more of a superficial designation, like Captain Crunch?

As was alluded to, it's the name of a character from I Dream of Jeannie. You know, one of those hip programs that the kids are in to.

 

[Devilgunman]

Good. Now please explain this

[K' Dash]

The fuck?, why does he deserve a welcoming?

Anyway, it will be fun to see the chaos.

 

[SanguineShark]

HAHAHA

Well yeah. It takes time to get Microsoft to approve his first post.

 

[deadlast]

Welcome aboard Larry.

 

[BleachAndPepsi]

Always good to have industry insiders here. Welcome Larry.

This won't end well.

Gotcha. Was just wondering if it was recent and part of their last month or so of using social media to try to turn people's opinions around about the bone.

Like Captain Crunch, this is the true answer.

He probably forgot to dot his t's and cross his i's. Well, maybe not the I part. I know my eyes would be crossed if I was doing PR on XB1,

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Welcome aboard, Major.

Some of you may not know this, but Major and I go wayyy back. We both attended a camp together.

That's me on the right, and Major is in the middle.

Had to get the first one out of the way. Glad he's onboard. I've personally always liked the guy.

He wasn't wrong. It's obviously set Microsoft back by months as a result of being forced to implement those changes.

There were so many accounts registered with @microsoft.com in the last few months that the account name MajorNelson420 just fell through.
