I just finished watching the Metroid 100% run with keyinput. Truly taking speedrunning to the next level.
Your runs are so full of entertainment I watch them over and over again. You are my favorite spreed runner, and I am your biggest fan.
You know, this subject would be much more suitable for a sig than an outright topic.
On the other hand, if the topic title was "JXQ for ninja" then it would have more credence.

Yeah, I have to agree with you, Virtual Alex. JXQ makes amazing runs, both in terms of entertainment and quality. I personally consider him as one the best TASers on this site. I know JXQ isn't a big fan of the "Ninja" title, but still, I believe many people regard him as one. At least I know I do. Keep it up, JXQ! :)
The solution is to obviously give him the Pirate title in place of ninja.
...
But yes, JXQ is quite, uh... different. Although his runs are usually quite entertaining because of it..

JXQ can produce high quality runs, within short periods of time, that are filled with his unique style. He also tends to pick popular/good games to run. 3 Cheers for JXQ!
JXQ is the reason i started TASing. I saw his SDW run on youtube or google video and did more research, then i found this site. I must admit that JXQ is also my top runner and he is probably many peoples favorite. Just look, when he posts a run, how many will vote or just look at it! I say it again, JXQ rules!
Hey JXQ! You must feel pretty good knowing your the man
Well I must agree with all of you, this run was just so amazing.
I was at my girlfriends place, and she knows that I'm TASing but doesn't understand why :P
Then I wanted to show her I run, and I havn't watched it for myself, and I just laughed and smiled over the whole run and really really enjoyed myself, and my girlfriend too really liked it and it was her first run to watch :D
So JXQ you really are something special! Keep up the good work!

Sure, JXQ is widely considered a "ninja" (does anyone know what "ninja" really means anymore?), but to say JXQ isn't a big fan of the "Ninja" title would be an understatement.
JXQ has publicly denounced the usage of "Ninja" titles, and he will do it again here.

Well..thank you everyone, these are very kind words :)
Randil and Fractal are correct; I don't like ranks such as ninja, and I definitely do not wish to have one myself.
If this view upsets anyone, I'm sorry. I just don't feel that it will have any positive effect for the site if I were to be given this rank.

From Seanbaby's Ninja Gaiden page:
"There used to be some myth that came out in the eighties about ninjas being sneaky or something. Wrong. That is Western propaganda spread by shitty American martial arts movies. A true ninja just runs around on the streets in broad daylight and makes dogs explode with their sword."
:D
<Swordless> Go hug a tree, you vegetarian (I bet you really are one)
