Heh, everybody wasn't very sure about who would win in the match. But I have to say that Mexico played awful this time. I guess the fact that Arg scored the 1st goal made feel the green team very worried, I don't know :/

They were robbed - Carlos Tevez was offside and while the refs were pretty hot with offside decisions, there are certainly areas where TV could be used to establish that after the ball has gone out of play. Stop the clock, check, tell the ref and move on.

Oh yes, I almost forgot about that. He won't be Death for too long, though.

Yeah, but long enough to had the scythe over to you?

You know, HMV actually had the decency to ship out one of the new releases on Friday for me so I expect it tomorrow or Tuesday. I guess I should pre-order from HMV more often since I'll get purehmv reward points with it as well.

My best friend is still waiting for HMV to ship of Family Guy season 4 for my Birthday. You know, nearly 3 months ago now...

Oh well, it's only Family Guy. :P

Fuck that, it's my birthday present!

You broke the rules

I'll be on Haggards side in this battle ;)

About halfway between the two of us, but less reason to hate Germany :P Have you guys got nose bleeds yet from doing so well at the finals?

Nose bleeds? :p

From getting so high (far) in the finals. We all know that the Netherlands suck in International competitions, save for their two appearances in the final in the 70s. Failed to qualify seven times, didn't make it past the group stages twice and fell at the second round twice. That's in 16 attempts. You have quite a weight of expectation on the team and you would expect them to do better, with the calibre of players that have worn orange.

You're right there. Holland always has a great team on paper, but seldom does well. To be honest, I think the same goes for England. Beside their win 1966 they have never gotten anywhere further than the fourth place in 1990 and their EC record isn't that impressive either (mostly not qualifying or being eliminated in the group stage).

I can see where you're coming from, but when we've won it, we still want to win it again. Perhaps we'll send a team of pub players next time and actually progress.

No the real cupfighters are Italy, Argentina, Germany and Brazil.

Well, that only really leaves Argentina and Germany - Brazil aren't as strong as they used to be, though they have got the Dutch next...

Today's games, I'll be going for Paraguay and Portugal.

Also, I want a chance for us to avenge ourselves for 1986 against Maradona. But, then again, I'd also like to see the Mexicans roll the Argies over - they've been the most positive team so far this year.

No chances to avenge yourself anymore.

They haven't won yet - I don't want to see Maradona win as coach.

It was one of the most enjoyable games of the tourney so far in my opinion. Too bad about that referee fucking up. The game might have been much more interesting if it became 2-2, but Germany deserved the win nonetheless. At least in my opinion.

Still, can't complain - I'll go back to celebrating the cricket.

I'm insanely afraid of heights as well, but a hot air balloon ride? I would love to do that; it's something that not everyone gets a chance to do. And it's not like you are able to fall over the side that easily, unless you are bungee jumping from one.

Oliver Kahn said after the match: "Maybe I should've put my sport bag into the goal. It might have saved a shot or two." ^^

The way we played on Sunday, had we got another shot on goal that beat the keeper, a bird would likely have flown past and kept the ball out :P

(SORRY COOP)

Meh - we're still top of the championship, with Hamilton and Button. How many Germans are in the championship this year? Six?! Combined, the Germans have scored 8 more points than the Brits, so I'd say we're more than holding our own :P

Hahahahaha, indeed, there are way too many German races this year. And talk about those bottom Brazilian races. Lucas Di Grassi and Bruno Senna are fighting to see which one finishes last. At least the Germans and Brits are at the top. :P

Angry Italians FTW! Stefano Domenicali talking to the BBC about Lewis' penalty and Alonso losing out to it. :P

Also, your views on Nabokov (almost) leaving San Jose...?

He's a good regular season keeper, but playoffs = suckage.

Right... I would give him another chance, though. Hey, at least they didn't blow it on the first round. :P

Harsh. He'll be backstopping the Phils next year, so the reports on NHL.com say.

It's like the 1980s all over again.

Hmm, what do you mean...?

Smiles in Oilers jerseys. Gretzky; Messier & all.

Ah, right. But he won't be another Gretzkyish player...

Nowhere near. But he's a good player in an Oilers Jersey - something they haven't seen since Ryan Smyth was traded to NYI.

And Coop, where do you watch Hockey or any other sports? Do they air it on the local TV stations or you have to use internet steams?

Hockey via ESPN America very occasionally - it's usually live when I'm in bed.

Ah, right... It's because our two ESPNs never air Hockey - only the IIHF and the Olympics. So I have to keep up with the NHL season via Internet streams. Illegal, but it's the only way out...

NHL.com allows people to watch highlights the day after. That's how I've followed it.

Baseball, I have a subscription to mlb.tv, allowing me to watch live streams of the Yankees and Steven Strasburg starts :P

Oddly, they air Baseball almost every night in here. :)

And is it... expensive?

$100 for the season. Not really, considering how often I watch it.

No but they could if they want. Also, don't forget dragons with swords for dicks.

And now it's the waiting game. They said the voting thread will close on Wednesday but I get the feeling it'll be a day or two earlier.

Yeah it's been quiet there for a while now. Haven't checked the votes for a while either, so no idea if I won (with the current standings). I'll just keep it a surprise.

Wednesday at midnight, they said? Not much longer now.

Indeed, his breakfast rants was just a horrible take on James Rolfe's You Know What's Bullshit videos.

Never heard of him.

James Rolfe IS the Angry Video Game Nerd. ;)

I don't know that many internet personalities I guess. I know the Angry Video Game Nerd and The Spoony One (and some of his friends), but that's about it.

I know several game reviewers but things seem to be dying out and it's come to the point where the only game reviewer I'm watching these days is AVGN and hopefully Spoony if I can get back into his videos. Trying his FFX reviews was a horrible idea. I'll give his other reviews a watch but icon modding duties are a higher priority.

Yep, enough people were able to see through his bullshit.

I guess so. Strange how so many people are following him or are still watching his reviews. I mean even without the bullshit, he doesn't seem like such an exciting guy =/

It's clear as day he's not very passionate about making films. Not once have we heard about his past and how he was inspired to making films. We've heard so much of that from James Rolfe that we can easily tell Chris Bores is a phony.

And that's why the majority of gamers HATE him!

Rightfully so. I don't get why he does it that way. I mean, I assume he will play those games to the end eventually, so why not wait until then before you review something?

Finish those games? Haha! Most of the time he relies on a game genie to beat the games and he only has so many games to try and convince people that he's an expert in gamer, which he isn't.

I wouldn't mind America. It's probably in a better state than the UK right now.

Yes I've been hearing bad things about the UK lately, but I believe every country is claiming that they are going to shit at the moment.

We've got a huge problem known as the Conservatives. They plan to raise the VAT to 20% as well as cutting down on benefits. This means the poor people are going to be fucked in the ass and I wouldn't be surprised if they made it easier on the rich people. However, I couldn't really trust Labour party this time around, especially when they've failed to deliver their promises several times. The worst one being their promise to get young adults to get jobs much easier. If that's the case, WHERE'S MY FUCKING JOB?! As for Liberal Democrats, the party leader sold out.

Maybe it's because I'm a dragon. :P

I never heard anything from the NG staff that would imply they are dragon fans, but maybe they are :)

They seem to be more interested in robots. I mean, they're all fans of Transformers and they even made a robot day. Dragons on the other hand, they have nothing but hopefully they see dragons as awesome as robots.

Oh well. I won't be posting there until I hear the results for the BBS awards.

Your dad's a fan of it as well? That's awesome. My dad's just neutral towards it. I know he prefers The Simpsons but so do many others so I can't really blame him.

Yeah, he likes most of FOX's stuff. I don't know which one he prefers, though. I remember watching Simpsons with him since 1999, although I haven't watched a lot of Futurama with him, since it's always been aired in less privileged times... =/

Futurama deserves more red carpet treatment like The Simpsons, especially when Futurama has a lot of creativity in the show.

But they can! You saw them kicking ass, right?

Sure. But there are SOOO MANY OF THEM! =O

Oh yes, a prequel right after to make a trilogy would indeed be good. However, I'd be good enough if they made a sequel and concluded the ending from the original game.

Kinda gone full circle here but yes, Psychonauts 2 would be enough :P

Well I think Holland's goal has always been winning the cup as well, but we never managed to get close to that after 1978.

And you guys got a great team on paper. I heard a lot of English people wanna see Capello and the players leave, but I don't see who they want to replace the players for.

No the real cupfighters are Italy, Argentina, Germany and Brazil.

Well, that only really leaves Argentina and Germany - Brazil aren't as strong as they used to be, though they have got the Dutch next...

I can see them winning from us and in the semi-final they would have to face Uruguay or Ghana. Difficult opponents, but probably not as difficult as having Germany or Spain. So I think they can make it to the finals at least, although I am hoping for Holland of course.

Today's games, I'll be going for Paraguay and Portugal.

Portugal? I hope not. I don't like Portugal much to be honest. Mostly because of Christiano Ronaldo, but they got a lot of dirty players as well. I prefer to see Spain win.

I agree with you on Paraguay though. Japan is a good team, but Paraguay seems more solid to me.

No chances to avenge yourself anymore.

They haven't won yet - I don't want to see Maradona win as coach.

Lol. Well he is behaving himself quite well in the WC so far, but I wouldn't like to see him win either. If he does I think he will never shut-up about it.

Trying his FFX reviews was a horrible idea. I'll give his other reviews a watch but icon modding duties are a higher priority.

Well I think a problem people might be having with Spoony right now is that he's videos are getting longer and longer. They used to take only 10~20 minutes, but nowadays he easily rambles on for 40+ minutes (extreme case: a 3+ hours long Let's play of a board game). It's mostly the enthusiasm from his side though that makes his videos so long, which isn't a bad thing, but he should consider keeping it shorter and splitting up videos.

Anyway I think the first FFX video was nice, but he seemed to be rushing through the game in the second which is too bad. Hopefully the third part will be better.

I guess so. Strange how so many people are following him or are still watching his reviews. I mean even without the bullshit, he doesn't seem like such an exciting guy =/

It's clear as day he's not very passionate about making films. Not once have we heard about his past and how he was inspired to making films. We've heard so much of that from James Rolfe that we can easily tell Chris Bores is a phony.

Yeah I know Spoony also tells his audience often how he likes to make his videos and why he keeps on making new ones. I think that kind of enthusiasm makes their movies a lot more enjoyable to watch. It's quite boring to watch someone who is not that passionate about playing games or watching movies and giving them a good and funny review.

I see. Well at least you guys only got three parties to choose from right? Much better system in my opinion.

Here in Holland we have over 15 parties who all have different interests and that can really get in the way of making a stable government and appointing the right ministers. The biggest right wing party has won the elections recently, which might result in similar problems as you guys have: Poor people getting poorer and rich people getting richer. If they decide to cooperate with the extreme right wing party we will be in even deeper shit.

Oliver Kahn said after the match: "Maybe I should've put my sport bag into the goal. It might have saved a shot or two." ^^

The way we played on Sunday, had we got another shot on goal that beat the keeper, a bird would likely have flown past and kept the ball out :P

Didn't something like this happen at a baseball game? Poor bird, good thing Neuer saved all of the other shots. Not only did he helped to win the match but he also saved a poor birds life. XD

At first glance I read "scared" and wondered of who the angry face should be scared of, but luckily I realized my mistake.

Level ups are sacred as well, so it's only logical to use the angry face when posting level ups.

...This! The angry face's charm wears off if you keep using it for every achievement.

But every achievement is sacred. Why downplay achievements by using any other lame emoticons?

Seriously, go talk World Cup in the World Cup thread.

Nah, this is the "Lounge" part of the "Level Up! Lounge". We just talk about what's on our minds. And right now it's the World Cup, which isn't too surprising. :P

...Hmm. I'm sure there was something else I wanted to gloat about here, but I can't for the life of me think what it was...

...nope; can't remember a thing.
Ah, well, I'm sure it wasn't important on any meaningful level anyway. Meh.

It's much easier when you're occupied with several other shows that no longer air.

Well, there's always that but if you know something is there right now, it's really hard to resist, especially when it's Futurama.

Well I'd be lying if I said I didn't at least occasionally sneak in an episode or two, but lately the weather's been outstanding here, save yesterday afternoon.

That's up to the admins for decide so we'll leave it to them.

Well I guess until then this will do. It's doing wonders for my proofreading skills. :P

That or you can use the news post as stated before. That's always good for testing if you really need it. I only really use it when I'm trying something new like when I took over the Regulars List.

It doesn't take too much time either way, and I think not having spell check is beneficial for me. But for something as important as a list, that's a pretty nice idea.

Congratulations
