Title: Hi All!
Post by: tobeysan on May 09, 2006, 11:47:28 PM: Hi, My name is tobey. I've been sober for well... never.... :P:

Anyhow, I'm IRL friends with Action9000, our very verbose friend, and that strange unknown voice on the kareoke project that he's working on.

I'm not an obsed fan, but I do enjoy my fair share of good random cartoons with good music. :p

I haven't watched all of them, so forgive me if I totally miss jokes and what not.

IRL I'm a computer engineer (which mean I connect the software world to the hardware one) and I spend my free time either coding, making photo illistrations or playing random racing and RPG games.

Anyhow, enough of me... :wave

Welcome to the boards! :yes
(I have this funny feeling he'll never post again :lol but I hope he proves me wrong.)

You didn't eat ALL the cookies, did you Tobeysan? :lol
Title: Hi All!
Post by: Petrie. on May 10, 2006, 06:41:11 PM: Unless he managed to eat them before you brought them...aww man, that was my leverage to get him here. :lol:

Just because you forgot to do you job I had to waste ten seconds of my time and some computer cycles to dial up google images and ask for some cookies! :lol

If you want anything done right you have to do it yourself anymore. :p

I'm not surprised.

It's an annual event here called "LANageddon". Hundreds of gamers pay a fee to bring their computers, hook up to a giant network, and LAN computer games for an entire weekend, straight. All participants spend the nights right at the locale, many of them right next to their computers. The event consists of tournaments, prizes, etc. Caffeine is permitted (in large quantities :lol ). Booze isn't.

I was Very tempted to go, but I don't have enough games to really make it worthwhile, nor did I really have the time (it was a weekend during the school year and I had a lot of stuff to do). I would have loved to try out in the Unreal Tournament competitions though :lol

Overall, I'm not a hardcore enough gamer to be into this kind of event, which is mainly why I didn't end up going.

Isn't quite the video I was looking for but there's too many videos to sift through...you get the idea. This is small compared to the big tourneys these people do.

Post by: action9000 on May 13, 2006, 08:41:23 PM: Haha, that was an awesome SSB:M video, RR. :lol
I'd love to check out an event like that; I really enjoy playing multiplayer console games! I think I would get killed though. I'm not Near that good :p

You see the guys getting pummled and knocked off the screen? That would be me :lol

Oop, I almost forgot, I should make some Smash Bros videos for you, RR! :lol
