Objection! is a website featuring an Adobe Flash animation that allows you to put words into the mouths of various characters from the game series Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
In Objection!, someone types in what they want Phoenix to shout as an objection, and the flash animation will show Phoenix saying what's written. When the objection is created, it is granted a number, so that the content of the objection cannot be predicted. Often, this link is posted into a forum as part of an argument, startling readers who are not expecting to hear the yell of Objection! while browsing the internet. Often, this leads to quite humorous statements, a couple of which are featured on the main page of the site if especially humorous or gigantic milestones.
The known available characters include Phoenix Wright, Miles Edgeworth and, as of July 28th, Manfred von Karma; though, the author of the site seems to be a fan of secret codes, and characters and features apart from Phoenix, the default character, are available by decoding this message.
An unrelated, Japanese site known commonly as Gyakugene was created before Objection!'s opening. The site features a similar objection generator, and contains five of the characters of the Gyakuten Saiban series. The creator of the site has made no attempt to contact the creator of Objection!, possibly due to a lack of knowledge or simply the language barrier.
The addition of an extra character, Mia Fey, appears to be in progress, but since she does not have an English 'Objection!' yell as of yet, the author has set up an open casting call to be the voice of Mia Fey.
When asked about future additions to the character roster, specifically adding Winston Payne, Franziska von Karma, and Godot, the site creator responded, "Yup yup, I'm on the case." von Karma has since been added to the website.
The site currently has over 500,000 objections, which is a figure that grows at a rapid rate. Objection!s popularity has been such that the host has been forced to move from their original site due to an unexpected surge in bandwidth, due to overexposure and inexplicably high popularity on the World of Warcraft, GameFAQs and Newgrounds forums.
At around 6PM (BST) on 30th July 2006, Objection! was taken offline. Users were greeted with the message "This site is currently offline due to extreme server load". This was later changed to a message stating that the site would return soon, but still didn't mention if it would remain on its current host. The site returned on 1st August, now on the MrDictionary.net domain name, the original domain of Objection, and it is now hosted at DreamHost.
Any requests for Objection! pages hosted at the second host, 4camp.net, are automatically redirected to the appropriate page at MrDictionary.net.
