Well if that's what you were talking about in this thread:
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27545
Which is where OJ trolled it into something else entirely. So the credits all OJ's. So that's the mystery of the amp test solved, it was OJ after all !

*amp rips of OJ's mask*

amp: Why it's Old Man Witherspoon, the caretaker!
Old Man Witherspoon: And I would have got away with it too, if it wasn't for you pesky kids.

Next job for the Scooby Doo gang: Why (beyond the obvious reasons) do we want to BAN CASTOR TROY?

Scooby: RAN RASTOR ROY!

Thelma: Oh Scooby
