I think I am going to post Achievements

lvl 10!

Why is it that level 31 couldn't have an exp requirement of 10K rather than 9,990?

Level 31, and soon to have 10K exp. here.

Yep. The other term was hand-and-one-half Sword, but it never really caught on. Since a mule is also termed a bastard, because it's neither a horse, nor a donkey. I think that's where the old English is derived.

Good stuff, good stuff.

All I know is that whatever its name had ended up being, it's a badass type of European sword. Sure you've got your giant Scottish Claymores and your epic German Zweihanders, but... when it comes to a sword that's big enough to kick some ass but not SO big that you look like a FF7 wannabe Cloud groupie... a bastard sword is where it's at.

One thing's for sure: no level rocks out with ALL the fucking auras as much as level 42 does.

Except Fab. Fab sucks, unless it's for Stamper.

Well, then technically level 42 rocks for all auras still, like I said, with the caveat of only for Stamper when it's a Fab level 42. #;-}>

I was actually going to mention that the only aura I personally wouldn't like to have on one of my accounts with level 42 is fab, but I'm sure there are some out there would enjoy the level 42 + fab besides just Stamper.

How is your potential 37,xxx retirement range shrinking from 950 to 880 saves going to inspire me to catch up, anyway? Wouldn't the fact that the number is shrinking towards 0 and the lovely 38,000 saves that entails.... pretty much put my mind at ease?

Two hit combo of myself and Bahamut both at 37,777 Saves and in control of 4 of your lists?

Eh. I've already said why 37777 doesn't bother me. I'd bother me on MY account, that's for sure, but he can do what he likes. Hell, like he said, I even suggested it. The even 40,000 on the other stat helps balance it out. The main thing to him was the 77,777 total, after all.

OMG AGAIN!

I BLEW YER MIND.

I love your latest catch-ups.

You love that I did them, that I'm doing them so rapidly (this is two catch-ups in a row that I've replied again in the same threads about 1-2 days later, after all), or the content of them?

So we'll see. How long do I have until I have to make a decision on gfox, I wonder. Also, I'll need to find a good # for him to stop at within the (current?) level 42 range.

You have 77 days to decide. Well, that's how long you are until you lose the sword, so choose QUICKLY!

18,830 / 19,580

Hmmmm. It is indeed an urgent situation. I'm about to pass one of the numbers that immediately comes to mind.

18,880, if you hadn't guessed.

Beyond that, there's 19,000.... 19,240, 19,360, and 19,420... and I'd say that's about it.

So there we go. I've got 5 numbers to choose from.

Lemme see if which dates I'll be hitting each of them sways me one way or the other with some sort of numerical (or historical) significance:

18,880 - June 28th
19,000 - July 10th
19,240 - August 3rd
19,360 - August 15th
19,420 - August 21st

Hah. Well, I'm sure both you and Coop can probably guess which one of those now has additional appeal to me for a retirement date AND retirement exp number for gfox. #;-}>

There is only ONE problem with this, BTW, which I've just now thought of: no more b/p for gfox. Not that I'm bothered by leaving him at 12 saves and 6 blams or whatever he's on (not even sure I'm remembering it right) for all eternity, but... hm. I wonder... if you only vote on one or two things, say, and then 2 weeks later vote on one or two things, surely NG's forgotten about the previous votes by then and they won't register towards a deposit, correct?

I might work gfox up to 36/36 if so.

Hell, in fact.... I should put gfoxcook at 36k/36k, gfoxclock at 3.6k/3.6k, and gfox at 36/36 (or 360/360, whichever).

EPIC. #;-}>

Yes yes, we've had this conversation before. Seeing is believing. For both of us. #;-}>

I can stop now since you've done your catch-ups.

Interesting.

Because they're scumbags. The way my dad drinks far too much, snores so often without doing anything about it or apologising, my mum letting him do what he wants and worst of all, lying about what other people have done. The fact my mum lied about what one of my friend's dad did was despicable....

Okay, I'll give you the drinking, and... I dunno what happened with your mom lying and all, but none of my business, so... you feel how you want to feel. But you really hate your dad for snoring? ... snoring, man! A lot of us snore. Don't hate someone for snoring. #;-}> My dad snores, and he's gone to several clinics for it in recent years. He sleeps with a machine at night, in fact. but anyway, for years and years my mom just made an ultimatum: I'm sleeping in another room till you fix it.

Everyone has interests, and sometimes people aren't very aware of the fact that the person they're eagerly gushing to about something is not quite as excited by the topic as they are.

Oh, Coop put it away. Hey Coop, I thought we had a deal. I lend you my comedy bits and you give me.....Well, you know, what'd satisfy me a lot. You're not too bothered now? :P

As he and I were discussing in my last post, he's been playing with your bits, so... I guess that covers the satisfying you part. o_o

See, Coop? I knew there was someone out there who'd say that. #;-}>

Well there is "Wake up dead man". And at 3:25 it sounds very similar to the intro of Ultraviolet although the lyrics are slighty different. But it´s the same melody.

For the rest I can hardly follow the lyrics because of two voices singing different things.

Don´t know many of the B-sides of U2 singles either, although I like Salome and right now I´m listening to Big Girls are Best which sounds really good. To my suprise it´s the B-side of Stuck in a Moment while it sounds like it comes straight from the AB era.

You mean he actually sang the "wake up dead man" chorus? Because if so, I didn't notice. Maybe due to the whole insanity of hearing those lyrics over THAT music that I know so well, as it's my fave b-side of theirs. #;-}>

And yeah, I have Salome and BGAB among many many others. But Lady with the Spinning Head stands alone as my fave b-side of the 90s AND overall. Party Girl and 11 O'Clock Tick Tock are my fave b-sides from the 80s, and they're both on Under a Blood Red Sky, so I can listen to 'em without having to have all the singles from that era (I only have a few pre-Joshua Tree singles... maybe 2-3... versus 10+ singles from Joshua Tree onwards).

Anyway, wild. So glad they kept the music and changed the lyrics.

Yeah true, I didn´t like the lyrics that much either. Also the "ssshhhhh" in some of Bono´s vocals hurt my ears a bit =/ But that could be because of bad recording.

Anyway when searching for the song again, I found this. Seems like an even earlier version of the other take you down song. Although it doesn´t really sound the same.

You can hear some parts of Until the End of the World. And you can even hear Bono giving instructions to the band. Somewhere near the end at about 5:00 also seems to sound a bit familiar...

Anyway, it seems like they really wanted to have Take You Down on AB, but derived half of the album from that song instead.

Hah! For the first minute and a half, it's a really weird un-U2-like song to me... then literally at 1:30, boom.. there's the guitar licks from Until the End of the World like you promised. So very strange and jarring... then Bono starts singing again, and both the vocals AND the music stop sounding U2ish again. And then eventually it gets back to the UTWOTW guitar licks again, so... hm.

You have to wonder how much of what you think of what a band sounds like is from what they're really like, soundwise, and how much is from just you having their existing music in your head.

... still, if it's just the latter, then every new album would sound unlike them at first unless they're just rehashing old stuff... so I don't quite buy that. Plus, I can hear a U2 influence on many other bands, so... why would they sound like U2 to me if ... yeah, well, anyway. You get the point. #;-}>

$0 on PC. There will be a charge on XB360.

Tis a beautiful thing to be a PC TF2er. #;-}>

Yes, but... now you don´t have any achievements to aim for ;)

(lol)

What do you mean? There's currently 245 TF2 achievements on PC, and I have 212 of them (so still 33 of them I'm trying to get, and I've got a good shot at least 10 more, but then they start to get impossible for me personally, too many hard medic and spy ones, mostly).

Meanwhile, X-Box 360 users are waiting for all their updates at once and either will have to pay money for them + get achievements... or else apparently the way it works is if Valve wants the updates to be free, the MS says Valve can't put any achievements in.

So I'm not quite sure what you meant by the above. O_o

Besides, I thought you were talking about potentially getting the PC version like Sir Nuts. If you'd be getting the 360 version, then that's very disappointing. Not only is there the whole no-updates-so-far thing... but there's the whole playing-with-a-gamepad thing.... and the whole not-playing-on-the-same-servers-as-me-an d-Bahamut thing, too, worst of all. #;-}>

As I was saying to Bahamut earlier this evening, the original Vice City is the only GTA I've done 100% of the story on, yet... I don't think I ever tried out that glitch in it. I'll have to do that sometime, as well. So what, you park the bike right on the floating shirt icon, or where it's just poking out the side of the bike, then get on the bike from that side but being careful not to touch the icon before you hit the triangle button?

Ah Dick Neck...good times...

'Twas bound to be an alt anyway so I was hardly surprised when the truth came out but it was fun while it lasted.

Ah, so that was an alt account?

I was talking about this with Bahamut earlier, too (seems like we were just Steam msging about everything we've been talking about here in LUL, interesting...), and I remarked that whether or not the thread started out seriously or as a troll, by page 5 (when he said "jellyous again after being mocked for the spelling by like 10-20 people through pages 4 and 5 to that point) he had definitely become a full-fledged troll whether he started out with that intention or not. #;-}>

So was the whole posthistory on that account up to that point just an elaborate setup, too? I believe there was a large history of weight-liftery postage.

Can't believe I set it off with my SILLYIOUS without any foreknowledge of that thread, too. Wacky terbacci.

Yeah, I thought that you were setting me up for a DN joke which is why I responded as I did.

Heh. I appeared to be in on the joke when I wasn't quite yet... I SEE THE FUTURE.

"As much as you guys are trying your hardest to put the guy down, I don't think you can deny the fact that he could kick your ass when it comes to navigating hedge mazes."

Yeah, I've read the ED page since posting in here last, and I saw that quote of yours, and thought to myself "hey, that's what he was talking about in LUL, isn't it."

Good stuff.

I was mostly there not for the ED commentary but more for the picture gallery, since I only read pages 1-5 in General, I missed out on a lot of presumably mostly-funny pics from pages 6-27, so ED filled in the gaps for me quite quickly compared to trudging through the multiple thread pages.

Glad you enjoyed it, and... don't get me wrong, I will guiltily admit to having a Whitesnake cassette tape back in the 80s.... their music's fine, but.... you basically went to a concert by a band named "Caucasian Penis" and declared it Best. Concert. Ever. ... just wanna make sure you do realise that, right? #;-}>

I stand by my statement even in the face of the homosexual connotations of the name Whitesnake.

Nothing homosexual about it, unless you think every male on the planet is gay, just... a horrible, horrible band name meaning, IMO. #;-}>

Personally I don't like U2 at all, Bono especially. They'd be popular enough in Dublin (they own a lot of property in the city centre) but they're not my cup of tea, and a lot of others in the south would share my view. I respect them musically, but in my view they're a bit up their own arse about being the "biggest band in the world", although you could blame the Irish media for purporting that. I thoroughly enjoyed the Soth Park episode feautring Bono though: linky.

I think we've had this discussion before, then. I AM FEELING TEH DEJA VU.

And yes, I've seen the South Park ep, it was pretty funny though I don't think they quite reached the full potential it had on that one like they have with some other celebrities (Tom Cruise refusing to come out of the closet, Barbara Streisand super Godzilla monster mode, etc. etc.).

Seinfeld was a show where nothing really ever happened in most of the episodes, and a common joke was that it was the show about nothing.

Well, much as I need to listen to more Blind Guardian, you need to watch more Charlton Heston movies. I believe I was referring to more of an Omega Man type Charlton Heston line of dialogue. He was the last human alive who wasn't mutated or whatever in that one. Good stuff, but not as famous as Soylent Green or Planet of the Apes.

Lol. Any other famous NG accounts that you are in charge off? :p

Well, since you mention it, I've currently got the keys to deckheadtottie as well.

Lol, so you´re actually like half of the review moderation team then? XD

I've also had the mighty keys to the accounts gfoxcook, gfoxclock and gfox at various points.

Oh, and Pimp.

Heh, but isn´t Pimp an alt account anyway or isn´t he held by multiple users? :p At least I always found it strange how he magically popped up out of nowhere whenever there was a topic made about him.

See, Coop? I knew there was someone out there who'd say that. #;-}>

Lol, now I´m starting to worry whether I said something terrible :p

Well there is "Wake up dead man". And at 3:25 it sounds very similar to the intro of Ultraviolet although the lyrics are slighty different. But it´s the same melody.

For the rest I can hardly follow the lyrics because of two voices singing different things.

Don´t know many of the B-sides of U2 singles either, although I like Salome and right now I´m listening to Big Girls are Best which sounds really good. To my suprise it´s the B-side of Stuck in a Moment while it sounds like it comes straight from the AB era.

You mean he actually sang the "wake up dead man" chorus? Because if so, I didn't notice. Maybe due to the whole insanity of hearing those lyrics over THAT music that I know so well, as it's my fave b-side of theirs. #;-}>

Yeah he did sang it loud and clear several times actually :p

Well it was more like:
"Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake uuuup dead man"

And yeah, I have Salome and BGAB among many many others. But Lady with the Spinning Head stands alone as my fave b-side of the 90s AND overall.

Yeah mine too. It´s the only b-side on my MP3 player at the moment.

Party Girl and 11 O'Clock Tick Tock are my fave b-sides from the 80s, and they're both on Under a Blood Red Sky, so I can listen to 'em without having to have all the singles from that era

Hmm I don´t know those songs that well yet. But weren´t they also featured on October, Boy or War? And I thought I was pretty sure that 11 O'Clock Tick Tock was their very first single and not a b-side.

(I only have a few pre-Joshua Tree singles... maybe 2-3... versus 10+ singles from Joshua Tree onwards).

I don´t have any U2 singles at all. My fathers to blame for that. He always wanted to buy the whole album because that was much cheaper and b-sides are usually never that interesting anyway.

But I believe a lot of B-sides appeared on the "Best of"-collection cd´s, so we still have them somewhere.

Anyway, wild. So glad they kept the music and changed the lyrics.

Yeah true, I didn´t like the lyrics that much either. Also the "ssshhhhh" in some of Bono´s vocals hurt my ears a bit =/ But that could be because of bad recording.

Anyway when searching for the song again, I found this. Seems like an even earlier version of the other take you down song. Although it doesn´t really sound the same.

You can hear some parts of Until the End of the World. And you can even hear Bono giving instructions to the band. Somewhere near the end at about 5:00 also seems to sound a bit familiar...

Anyway, it seems like they really wanted to have Take You Down on AB, but derived half of the album from that song instead.

Hah! For the first minute and a half, it's a really weird un-U2-like song to me... then literally at 1:30, boom.. there's the guitar licks from Until the End of the World like you promised. So very strange and jarring... then Bono starts singing again, and both the vocals AND the music stop sounding U2ish again. And then eventually it gets back to the UTWOTW guitar licks again, so... hm.

You have to wonder how much of what you think of what a band sounds like is from what they're really like, soundwise, and how much is from just you having their existing music in your head.

... still, if it's just the latter, then every new album would sound unlike them at first unless they're just rehashing old stuff... so I don't quite buy that. Plus, I can hear a U2 influence on many other bands, so... why would they sound like U2 to me if ... yeah, well, anyway. You get the point. #;-}>

I think so? Although I am a little confused here :p

Do you also mean not all of their existing music necessarily has to be what they really sound like? Or used to sound like?

$0 on PC. There will be a charge on XB360.

Tis a beautiful thing to be a PC TF2er. #;-}>

Yes, but... now you don´t have any achievements to aim for ;)

(lol)

What do you mean? There's currently 245 TF2 achievements on PC, and I have 212 of them (so still 33 of them I'm trying to get, and I've got a good shot at least 10 more, but then they start to get impossible for me personally, too many hard medic and spy ones, mostly).

Meanwhile, X-Box 360 users are waiting for all their updates at once and either will have to pay money for them + get achievements... or else apparently the way it works is if Valve wants the updates to be free, the MS says Valve can't put any achievements in.

So I'm not quite sure what you meant by the above. O_o

I was just joking a bit that while XBox players have to pay, at least they get this whole achievement system with gamerscore and all that shit. Which is of course totally not worth spending any money on :p

But now that you say that even you as a PC gamer have something like that, it´s almost retarted to get the XBox version.

Besides, I thought you were talking about potentially getting the PC version like Sir Nuts. If you'd be getting the 360 version, then that's very disappointing. Not only is there the whole no-updates-so-far thing... but there's the whole playing-with-a-gamepad thing.... and the whole not-playing-on-the-same-servers-as-me-an d-Bahamut thing, too, worst of all. #;-}>

Nah I don´t even own an XBox 360 and don´t want one either.

And I bought my last videogame about 2 years ago. Which was Zelda: Twilight Princess by the way. But I´ll just keep TF2 in mind if I ever have some spare money and spare time.

You know those clothing pickups around the city? Try and park a motorbike so that when you get on it you'll also pick the token up and see what happens :P

Right, O_O I'll see what happens then.

How you park it is vital, if you park it too far onto the token, you'll pick it up while approaching the bike, the trick is to collect it whie being in the process of mounting the bike. The results are hilarious.

In other news, I just caught your Dick Neck reference because I just read the first 5 pages of the Dick Neck thread yesterday morning, so... heh. That one flew over my head back when I replied to ya. #;-}>

As I was saying to Bahamut earlier this evening, the original Vice City is the only GTA I've done 100% of the story on, yet... I don't think I ever tried out that glitch in it. I'll have to do that sometime, as well. So what, you park the bike right on the floating shirt icon, or where it's just poking out the side of the bike, then get on the bike from that side but being careful not to touch the icon before you hit the triangle button?

Essentially yes, the trick is that you should pick up the token while you're hopping on the bike, not on your approach beforehand or after you've sat down on it. Took me a good 5 minutes or so to get right, but it's fantastic once you get it.

Okay, this is getting a bit silly. #;-}>

Indeed it is, let's leave it at that.

THERE IS A TIME FOR SILLINESS. And there is a time for slightly less silliness. And this is THAT time.

No time like the present.

Fair enough, just trying to spread the good word about PW and how EVERYONE with a DS needs to play it (or buy it anyway so Capcom continue the series lol).

Well, seeing as how my baby got all 4 games, I think this household has done its part. #;-}>

Excellent news, may the blessing of Capcom be with you :)

Ah Dick Neck...good times...

'Twas bound to be an alt anyway so I was hardly surprised when the truth came out but it was fun while it lasted.

Ah, so that was an alt account?

I was talking about this with Bahamut earlier, too (seems like we were just Steam msging about everything we've been talking about here in LUL, interesting...), and I remarked that whether or not the thread started out seriously or as a troll, by page 5 (when he said "jellyous again after being mocked for the spelling by like 10-20 people through pages 4 and 5 to that point) he had definitely become a full-fledged troll whether he started out with that intention or not. #;-}>

Apparently it was an alt made by Zack, however as to the origin of the now famous original pic I haven't a clue.

So was the whole posthistory on that account up to that point just an elaborate setup, too? I believe there was a large history of weight-liftery postage.

May have just been a gimmick account for posting about weightlifting exploits or whatever, then they created that thread and what happened next was unexpected, but they rolled with it.

Can't believe I set it off with my SILLYIOUS without any foreknowledge of that thread, too. Wacky terbacci.

Yeah, I thought that you were setting me up for a DN joke which is why I responded as I did.

Heh. I appeared to be in on the joke when I wasn't quite yet... I SEE THE FUTURE.

Quick, what's going to happen in 2036?

"As much as you guys are trying your hardest to put the guy down, I don't think you can deny the fact that he could kick your ass when it comes to navigating hedge mazes."

Yeah, I've read the ED page since posting in here last, and I saw that quote of yours, and thought to myself "hey, that's what he was talking about in LUL, isn't it."

Good stuff.

I was mostly there not for the ED commentary but more for the picture gallery, since I only read pages 1-5 in General, I missed out on a lot of presumably mostly-funny pics from pages 6-27, so ED filled in the gaps for me quite quickly compared to trudging through the multiple thread pages.

Yeah, past the first dozen pages it died a bit of a slow death as the quality photoshops dried up and crappy MS Paint offerings emerged. While I was disappointed to see it locked before Dick Neck: Origins was made, it was for the best.

Glad you enjoyed it, and... don't get me wrong, I will guiltily admit to having a Whitesnake cassette tape back in the 80s.... their music's fine, but.... you basically went to a concert by a band named "Caucasian Penis" and declared it Best. Concert. Ever. ... just wanna make sure you do realise that, right? #;-}>

I stand by my statement even in the face of the homosexual connotations of the name Whitesnake.

Nothing homosexual about it, unless you think every male on the planet is gay, just... a horrible, horrible band name meaning, IMO. #;-}>

Normally no, but declaring a massive admiration of such has certain vibes associated with it :P

Personally I don't like U2 at all, Bono especially. They'd be popular enough in Dublin (they own a lot of property in the city centre) but they're not my cup of tea, and a lot of others in the south would share my view. I respect them musically, but in my view they're a bit up their own arse about being the "biggest band in the world", although you could blame the Irish media for purporting that. I thoroughly enjoyed the Soth Park episode feautring Bono though: linky.

I think we've had this discussion before, then. I AM FEELING TEH DEJA VU.

Maybe we have, can't recall myself to be honest but we could well have.

And yes, I've seen the South Park ep, it was pretty funny though I don't think they quite reached the full potential it had on that one like they have with some other celebrities (Tom Cruise refusing to come out of the closet, Barbara Streisand super Godzilla monster mode, etc. etc.).

Yeah, there was a lot of wasted potential there, I have to agree with that. Frankly I think they could've dedicated an episode to him as opposed to him supplementing the existing storyline for that episode.

CLOCK DAY CLOCK DAY CLOCK DAY

There is only ONE problem with this, BTW, which I've just now thought of: no more b/p for gfox. Not that I'm bothered by leaving him at 12 saves and 6 blams or whatever he's on (not even sure I'm remembering it right) for all eternity, but... hm. I wonder... if you only vote on one or two things, say, and then 2 weeks later vote on one or two things, surely NG's forgotten about the previous votes by then and they won't register towards a deposit, correct?

I think that's so, but I'm not too sure. I've noticed some of my alts I meant to stop depositing for I accidentally voted on them a few times (no deposits, though) and later, the voting was reset so I'd have to vote for 5 more flashes to deposit again.

I might work gfox up to 36/36 if so.

Hell, in fact.... I should put gfoxcook at 36k/36k, gfoxclock at 3.6k/3.6k, and gfox at 36/36 (or 360/360, whichever).

Sounds like a plan.

Ah well, these Sandviches are going to waste.

Because they're scumbags. The way my dad drinks far too much, snores so often without doing anything about it or apologising, my mum letting him do what he wants and worst of all, lying about what other people have done. The fact my mum lied about what one of my friend's dad did was despicable....

Okay, I'll give you the drinking, and... I dunno what happened with your mom lying and all, but none of my business, so... you feel how you want to feel. But you really hate your dad for snoring? ... snoring, man! A lot of us snore. Don't hate someone for snoring. #;-}>

I have every right to hate the douchebag for snoring. Because of him, I have lost so much fucking sleep and the worst part of it, he's not doing a fucking thing about it. He doesn't apologise either, except for when I told him to do so. So what makes you think I shouldn't hate him for snoring?

No need for anger or harsh words, just... a matter-o-fact solution, yanno?

My parents have crossed the line far too many times now, so it's only fair to strike back at them.

Seinfeld was a show where nothing really ever happened in most of the episodes, and a common joke was that it was the show about nothing.

Well, much as I need to listen to more Blind Guardian, you need to watch more Charlton Heston movies. I believe I was referring to more of an Omega Man type Charlton Heston line of dialogue. He was the last human alive who wasn't mutated or whatever in that one. Good stuff, but not as famous as Soylent Green or Planet of the Apes.

I think Soylent Green and Planet of the Apes are the only movies I ever watched with Charlton Heston. >_>

5,000 experience points for me.

Okay, NOW I'm at 10K exp.
Still, it's pretty stupid that level 31 requirements just edge away from exactly 10K...

Otherwise I'd have counted schneelocke's 100,000 Total points as well :P

Lol. Any other famous NG accounts that you are in charge off? :p

Well, since you mention it, I've currently got the keys to deckheadtottie as well.

Lol, so you´re actually like half of the review moderation team then? XD

No, they're just away on holiday. I'm making sure that I try to keep things cool for when they return, by ensuring that they don't miss deposits, much as it galls me, being 8 deposits behind deckheadtottie!

I've also had the mighty keys to the accounts gfoxcook, gfoxclock and gfox at various points.

o

J00 didn't no?!

Oh, and Pimp.

Heh, but isn´t Pimp an alt account anyway or isn´t he held by multiple users? :p At least I always found it strange how he magically popped up out of nowhere whenever there was a topic made about him.

I was joking. I can tolerate depositing for gfoxcook and deckheadtottie, because those guys are actually people I like and respect. Pimp has done nothing to endear itself to me over the years, so why should I bother?

Since Coop is looking to pass you in EXP someday, something didn't seem right about him taking care of your account.

I love how you talk to deckheadtottie as if it's actually him that logged in and wrote that message :P

Futurama quotes? Stop me if I guess it...

No but it's good to hear Futurama quotes here. I'm talking about what satisfies me SEXUALLY!

Tubgirl? Goatse? Lemonparty?

pretty much all of NG has been running like ass for me today. tons of timeouts, simple not respondings, it's as if it's down but it isn't because downforeveryoneorjustme says so. only just got through depositing and have been trying to get five votes in for three hours.

Well, the art portal isn't even a week old, so I'm sure that it's someone like Rob and Bob dicking about in the system (Oh wait, that's Stamper's job :P) in order to get things sorted.

Level 31, and soon to have 10K exp. here.

It will once Pimp reaches Level 60, actually it'll go over.

Might I enquire as to a source for your knowledge on this?

I may or may not have a pretty awesome achievement later today.

Awesome to my standards at least.

C´mon Bahamut, just admit that fab aura doesn´t look half as bad on level 42 then on any other icon :p

Fab auras fucking sucks with everything. END OF STORY!

Okay =(

Haha xD I can imagine that´s pretty frustrating.

Well they should be glad at least someone cares to deposits for them, since nobody else outside the moderation team is allowed to.

I've also had the mighty keys to the accounts gfoxcook, gfoxclock and gfox at various points.

o

J00 didn't no?!

No. Nobody in here ever tells me anything >=(

Oh, and Pimp.

Heh, but isn´t Pimp an alt account anyway or isn´t he held by multiple users? :p At least I always found it strange how he magically popped up out of nowhere whenever there was a topic made about him.

Aha. Yeah why bother indeed. I´d much rather have him miss those deposits anyway.

I still would like to know whether he is just an alt/account held by multiple users or just one person though.

Yeah, I went and checked on downforeveryoneorjustme and it said the site was working fine. I suspected my ISP was being shit again, but fortunately the site returned back to normal shortly. However, the Art Portal issue I've had was something different. It's working fine now, however.

Well, then we should just go on talking about how awesome they are and maybe he'll get conviced?

Yeah, Blind Guardian are the shit!

There are others? :P

Seeing as there is a Christopher's Street Day Parade every year... I think so. ^^

I'm pretty sure they don't care about Fagamut or Faggard. :P

Alright, I should say it now since you're obviously getting nowhere. You were to give me dragon porn in return for borrowing my comedy bits. THERE!

I highly doubt it. I think the admins are done with having sliding scales on experience but I'll guess we'll have to wait and see.
