No Zero Hero?

(I do find it a bit weak as a basis for a title though, since it's not the first time it happened, as ani said)

I actually have to correct myself.
After searching a bit i believe he actually was the first to ever get no 0s (excluding 2014 where scoring was 1-5 instead of 0-10)
Someone correct me if i'm wrong please

realtalk imo it's very weak and doesn't really feel connected to hiplop except for the fact that yes, he got no 0s.

Menno's right even if hiplop is the only no-0 ever (which I don't think ia the case but can't check). The idea behind the title is weak, late, ane doesn't say anything about hiplop

I'd argue this is extremely noteworthy!

Late is fine, it means it is still on people's minds after the event.

If Hippy were on Team Fox
Zero Fox Given
would have been an amazing title! It covers the lack of zeroes as well as his willingness to put himself out there in conversations and situations wothout worrying about how he looks.
Like, it's not bad, but I wish it had that last aspect for perfection.

I could throw my support behind a title that includes the no 0s thing, but it's a very weak title alone and needs support.

Tbh
Anti-nom anything related to the no zeroes thing
unless it's a facet of a more clever title incorporating several ideas.

It's an exceptionally weak premise for a title. Hiplop deserves better.

yeah hiplop definitely deserves a title but he deserves one better than just 'got no zeroes'

Right, because Titles are no longer about notable site events but muse wholly encompass a person's personality and contributions to the site while also being a clever, witty pun.

My point with that ironic proposal is that much as getting no 0s is kinda cool... It's really not that noteworthy or even a particularly impressive achievement. I'm pretty sure there's multiple users who'd also get no zeros if not for that user that only gave people either 10s or 0s, and probably more. I'm pretty sure there were several last year. I even forgot that he did until you mentioned it, so it's hardly a memorable moment.

Davsto's suggestion is my favorite so far. Maybe we can give hiplop a title that's a picture of a tombstone with davsto's nomination written on it....

Y'all are trying too hard. Titles don't have to be deep and all-encompassing, but they oughtn't be trite or ephemeral.
