I remember JL's ridiculous predictions. He actually had quite a few followers. I was always one of those who spoke against him, and ours was also a fairly large group. Then there were those who were simply entertained by his posts and persona online.
Come to think of it, he was entertaining and was actually a pretty good poster and I'm fairly certain he drew in some people to the boards to witness his antics.

There's another one as well, the guy who calls himself Avinash. They both made some incredibly far fetched predictions and also both disappeared right around the time the Wii started going down yoy every week. A lot of users tried to take over the crown and pushed the same agenda onwards, "It will recover, wait for colors, price cut, game A, game B, massive 3rd party support" etc but no one had the same fervor as JL.

In hindsight, seeing the arguments and predictions made for the Wii, one can clearly observe that all three main camps have been equally deluded and wrong this generation. One fell on it's ass, one simply broke and one spoke too soon. Let's just hope everyone learned something from the 7th generation.
Also, let's hope JL returns to the forums. I actually mean that.

Not many people's predictions could make Mike B's and Crazzzyman's look reasonable by comparison, but JL proved equal to the task.
