Sorry, I'm scan reading in the mornings and seeing Too and 100 on your account name, I've gravitated to Bahamut's alt, Toohot100, which is a parody of yours. Do I feel like a twat now :P

Hahahaha. That alt will always be the best.

Yep and now the value becomes even more apparent, as it's caught me out a few years later...

Beast has some songs in there that are too weak - The Assassin, for example. Powerslave is iconic and I think that Dance of Death and Final Frontier run the self-titled and Powerslave close, in my eyes.

Wait what? The Assassin is in No Prayer for the Dying.

Funny, I always thought it was in Beast... Okay, it must be Gangland, Invaders or Total Eclipse.

The Mirror, you say? You can expect me to be disgusted right away.

Why? Don't tell me that you're one of these Daily Mail types...

I HATE THEM ALL!

They report stuff and give a very political point of view, as opposed to the BBC's "neutral" PoV.

I actually wouldn't mind giving one of my alts supporter.

Dropping the ball, but giving Bahamut an idea...

Now that's a bribing plan. :P "Front page dragon porn and I'll give all my alts supporter."

I wouldn't know, since I never played any Half-Life game, heh. But I played Resistance on PS3 and I still have to say, that ego shooters are best played with a mouse and a keyboard. Even though the controls for Resistance where pretty good.

Yeah, you just can't beat mouse and keyboard for FPS games.

But on the other hand, playing console games on an emulator with a keyboard just sucks.

I miss 2005 a lot.

I cannot name a specific year, but I sure miss the times when the portal was way more active.

2005 was really NG's peak of popularity. Each day had at least 200 submissions and a Clock Day would have to be lucky to even get that much nowadays.

Yeah, it's a real shame.

Who needs an English version of Moskau?

People who don't speak German? Ok, the lyrics aren't really that important... but the "throw your glasses at the wall" part is pretty cool. "Wirf die Glaeser an die Wand! Russland ist ein schoenes Land! Hahahaha!"

Nah, Moskau is good as it is.

We still have the word "Fraeulein" in german, but it isn't used anymore. "Madmoiselle" isn't as common anymore as it used to be.

I thought that Fraeulein was being phased out, because it's usually a condescending term used by people visiting restaurants to summon their waitress.

I think it was used in a pejorative way quite often. And women just got fed up that they where only a "Frau" if they married.

Despite what I've learned about the English Language since, where a Master is higher up the food chain, professionally speaking, than a mere Mister.

So, a married woman is higher up the food chain than an unmarried woman?

Back in the 1950s, I'd have said so, as the profession "housewife" was well respected. Until then, nurse or secretary was good for a woman, until she got a husband...

Yeah, but society has developed since then. Or at least that's what I hope has happened. It's not sing of "weakness" for a man if his woman has a job as well.

She says "Call me 'Maybe'" not "Call me 'Carly Rae Maybe'".

Ah, right.

So if Maybe wants to change her name, she has to release a single called "(No, fuckwit) I really want you to call me Carly Rae Jephsen"?

Or maybe "I was just kidding, my name is Carly".

But all three are UK single chart hits. Simple. Name them in 10 seconds and win a digital radio, where you can carry on not hearing them :P

You think I care about single charts? But hey, that only shows how a song like that can be a "hit" while something like Thr Prophecy becomes unknown to too many.

But it does mean that a little under 10 days after I was born, Flight of Icarus was released as a single. Awesome!

Nope, it has to be a front page feature.

That doesn't bear thinking about...

So yeah, go and put all that dragon porn on front page Tom!

Or not.

Metal trivia, anyone?

I found it on the german Wikipedia: It's âEUzCharlotte the HarlotâEU (Iron Maiden), âEUzHooks in YouâEUoe (No Prayer for the Dying) and âEUzFrom Here to EternityâEUoe (Fear of the Dark). So, it's actually four songs.
Strange that this info is missing on the english article about the album.

I'll have to sign up and edit that one :P

Well, 22 Accacia Avenue is lame compared to songs like Run to Hills or Number of the Beast.

I think those other songs have been aged by playing them so much.

I don't know. I could listen to those songs every day without growing tired of them.

Beast hasn't had that effect on me yet, but Run To The Hills has left me a little jaded. I'll recover.

There's only one way to find out... let's enter the studio and record the songs!

Now that sounds like a challenge.

"Challenge accepted"?

Hell, I've got to get a studio now...

There's only one way to do that right... do you have the coconuts ready? Great!
CHAAAAARGEEEEEE!

Yeah, it was pretty funny. I knew I was close to level up when you and Auz announced your level ups. And now I have over 100 days to go until the next level up.

Those days were more fun but at least now I get closer and closer to Coop with the times we level up. When Coop gets to level up, it will only be 28 days so that is pretty close.

Speaking of "days to go": Only 45 days to go until my next big achievement.

I like how I have a big achievement just before my next level up.

I do need to look into that. Is it really that the rechargeable cable for the PS3 controller could actually work on my laptop? It's tempting to find out.

It works on my Netbook without any problems at all. After all, it's a normal USB Cable, so the Controller should recharge. But I think you have to install some little program to actually use the controller as a game pad on your PC/Laptop.

Yeah, I knew there had to be something to install just to get the controller working on the PC.

Just do a quick google (or bing) search and you should find something. It was pretty easy to use as well, and it is really worth it. In my opinion, the controllers for the PlayStation are the best ones.

In 1981, Metallica was founded. TAKE THAT, SUCKERS! :P
But also in 1981, "Killers" was released. As was "Diary Of A Madman" and "Denim and Leather"...

Oh yeah. Apparently, number 1 at that point was David Bowie, with Let's Dance. Across the pond, it was Michael Jackson, with Billie Jean. I know which side of the pond I'd rather be on.

I can understand that some of their tracks are more difficult. Like Mariner, for example.

There's Windows Media Centre for videos anyway so WMP is redundant there. As for foobar, I keep hearing about it so more and more I may need to consider it. Supposedly it's good with iPod scrobbles for Last.fm as well.

Those days were more fun but at least now I get closer and closer to Coop with the times we level up. When Coop gets to level up, it will only be 28 days so that is pretty close.

The box is actually decent IMO. I always like a sense of mystery.

I guess so. Keep in mind that on Wednesdays and Saturdays I'm actually spending less and less time at home. Hell, I'm doing this post at 2 in the morning. That's a new sign of laziness for me. :P

At least you had a good song then.

Level 27 achieved! I have to admit that it isn't my favourite levels, the current halloween version is probably one of the worst icons and in my opinion the normal one isn't much better. My only consolation is that if they do Christmas icons this year then I'll only have to put up with the normal icon for around a month.
