Congrats Bintsy! Its been a pleasure to know you for the time I have. I've also had my 6 years pass a couple months ago. That sure is a long time, isnt it? I can seriously remember the day I first logged in here since it was right after I got married.

Anyways, I hope you'll be with us for at least another 6 years

First off ...

Barathemos : Summons fail XD

Now my pick ...

THURSDAY GAME:
( 0 - 0 - 0 ) Cowboys @ Cardinals ( 0 - 0 - 0 ) Cowboys

EDIT: Crap, sorry. Wrong thread, my fault

I will take part in this. The 5k Viz ( which is, in fact, hella cheap ) is on the way.

And again, I'm sorry for not being able to help out anymore but its only because I do not currently have a personal computer. The only computer I have are the ones at work, so I'll still be able to make picks once a week at least. And in an unrelated matter, I probably won't be able to defend my 3-time title in the Autumn netplay tournament either, for the same reason. Its very unfortunate for me

Eirinn : Happy Birthday youngin! I am no longer the rookie of the 30 year old club XD Have a great day and remember to eat plenty of pudding!

Which reminds me ... I will return the favor lol Here you go!

Eirinn : I am actually on my work computer as I read your statement. I don't personally have a working laptop or computer right now so the best one I have is the one I use at work. It also looks like I probably won't defend my 3-time TSB title on Vizzed unless I get some sort of miracle lol

The person below me plays Overwatch on a daily basis.

Sonicmcmuffin : Thanks man. And I thought I was starting to get the hang of it, but your statement tells me I'm still nowhere close XD

Eniitan : Thank you The day has been awesome! We went to Tava's which is a Greek pizzeria. It was the first time I had ever been and it was really good!

Eirinn : I appreciate the nice words and I'm honored to be a part of your "Most awesome users" list. And as for the randomness, I'll always go along with it. It makes it more fun for me! The pudding looks fantastic and I will eat it alongside my banana pudding my stepmom made for me.

Thank you guys for taking the time out of your busy days to wish me a HBD. It really means a lot to me!

thing1 : Thanks for the thread bro. The fact that a whopping 3 people replied tells me a lot about my popularity on here lol But seriously, I wouldn't change anything since the night I picked you up at the airport. Getting to know you has been awesome, and I look forward to having more adventures with you.

I saw this before and I thought I replied, but lemme get my two cents in here before anything else happens.

I don't blame either party for what happened. I don't blame the woman for getting out of control, since she was on the way to see her dying father for the last time ever. Put yourself in the woman's shoes. If it was my father I was going to see for the last time, I'm not sure what I could've done to be honest. My father ( and mother ) mean the world to me. I would do darn near ANYTHING to see them one last time if they were on their deathbed.

But I also don't blame the airline for kicking them off, honestly. That would be a really tough situation to handle in the correct way, in my opinion. Kicking them off the plane though ... I think they may have gone just a little too far with that. I understand that it was probably for everyone else's safety that they did so ... I respect that decision as a matter of fact. But that doesn't make it right. Its been a while since I've been on a plane, but I would've just given them a free meal or something. I, myself, am in the customer service industry and as far as I know, rule #1 is you should always try to keep the customer happy. A free meal, a nice pillow or blanket, or maybe even a full refund is the direction I would've gone.

The bottom line is stuff happens ( and I don't mean "stuff" lol ). You can't help what you can't control. 

Sonicmcmuffin : To put it bluntly, I think with me playing Overwatch with you guys now, I am pretty sure we'll talk enough on there lol Why talk on here when we can talk on there, right?

And as for the site "seemingly" dying ... I had also heard that a while ago. I am not usually active very much on here, but I have been lately since the activity has gone done. Its sort of a "trying to do my part" kind of thing I guess lol

But you can talk to me any time you want and I promise I will reply to you on a regular basis. I love it when people send me a message on here. It makes me feel popular.

I don't really need all that much sleep. As long as I have a good breakfast in the morning, I will be good to go for the whole day.

A have a great example ... just last night, I had a pretty busy day in my shop. It was really busy for a Friday night since the bowling center I work in doesn't have a league during the summer. I almost did $800 in only 4 hours! But anyway, I didn't get home until almost 11pm when I usually get home around 9.

Then this morning, I have this huge annual youth tournament to work for. Basically I had to wake up at 6am after only less than 7 hours of sleep. And after a bowl of cereal and an apple, I am ready to go!

I wasn't actually sure what to title this thread, so I just put the name of the game.

What I am looking for here is some tips, tricks, etc ... pretty much anything that can help someone who just started to play the game as much as possible is very appreciated. I say this because I am the one who just started playing. This game has been very popular, I know, but I have finally been convinced to start playing it. I believe I'm at rank 12 or 13 currently, so I can't play Competitive yet. But I'm still not sure if I have a complete hold on the game just yet.

Maybe you can explain who is your favorite character and give a brief explanation about why he or she ( or it ) is. You can also talk about when is the best time to use said character, and possibly give some good combos to use and when.

I have already watched a bunch of videos explaining some of these characters and their abilities and whatnot. But I just figured I'd mention it on here as well and see what you guys think of it. Even though I am still just a noob at this game, I have already had some big help from thing1 and his friends so far. Thanks for the help man, and I look forward to playing it more!

But any additional help I can use is well received

thing1 : If you ask me, I would root for Ovi to win one. Of course I'm talking about Alex Ovechkin from the Capitals. Although I don't like any of the sports teams coming out of DC ... the Washington Redskins because I was a Cowboys fan growing up, and the Washington Nationals because of Bryce Harper mostly ... I have a different view of the Capitals. It doesn't matter what the sport is, I seem to gravitate towards the underdog and cheer for them, especially if I'm watching a game and I don't have a dog in the fight.

In my opinion, the next player that deserves to win his first one is definitely Ovi. This year, he ran into the buzzsaw that was Sidney Crosby and his Penguins. But Ovi took him to 7 games this time. I was rooting for the Capitals pretty hard in that game, but they couldn't get any offense going. Perhaps next time he will come out on top. We will have to see.

It seems to me there are a good number of people on both sides of this debate. Although, I can't be too surprised at that considering it is kind of an interesting question. Good points are certainly being made both ways on this one. Very interesting indeed ...

It would good to wait at least a couple more years before the actual release of the PS5, in my opinion. I remember your article about the prediction of a lauch in 2018. At first I thought it seemed way too early ... but now it seems it IS too early, and rightfully so. I think 2020 could be a great year to expect the PS5. It'd be a good start to a new decade of gaming, sort of lol

Also, in an unrelated matter, the Crash Trilogy has already been a "massive success." It has created some reports from insiders that suggested that SPYRO could be Sony's next remaster. I know we talked about it briefly in your Crash thread, but now it seems to be a very real possibility.

Just figured I'd update you on that

Barathemos : I am pretty sure that you have heard of 92.9 The Game here in ATL. I kid you not, the topic comes up more times than you would think.

I don't know if you listen to it or not, but just yesterday Wendy Adams and John Chuckrie were having a pretty good debate about it. Wendy thought it was a sandwich and John thought it wasn't. It was actually kind of entertaining. Then they stopped for a minute and John said "Wait ... why are we even talking about this?" lol

This is a cool little milestone. Nice job for making it this far! I suppose another "lucky" post number could be something like 1,313 XD It would be a miracle if I ever made it that far ... to 7777 I mean. At this rate, I might get to 2k and call it a career lol

When I heard Vizzed activity wasn't doing so well, I decided to come back to posting and post as much as I could. It won't be anywhere near a rate as some of you guys go, but I have surprised myself in the last month or so. 2k may come a lot quicker than I first thought.

Congrats again, and keep on posting dood!

The hardest game I have ever played is definitely Adventure Island for the NES. I, still to this day, have never completely beaten this game. Its not really all that hard to get to World 3 but after that, the rest seems almost impossible ... and this game has 8 Worlds! It was one of the very few games that I played in my childhood and still have yet to beat. I know there is a 2nd one out, but I will not even touch that one until I have beaten the first one.

This question has been killing me for a while now. Oddly enough, I hear it all the time when I'm listening to an Atlanta sports talk radio station. It came up again last night and I wondered if I would ask it on here, since I haven't already seen it. Also, July 4th is coming up soon so I'm pretty sure there will be a ton of people eating these things in the near future.

But is a hot dog a sandwich? Yeah its wrapped in bread, and you can cover it in condiments. Its also just as American a food as lets say a hamburger. And I know a lot of people around me that think the same thing ... and that is they say "No. Its just a hot dog." From what I have seen from this so far, the people on both sides have great points. You need the bread in order to make the hot dog complete, but that's just the thing. Its not actually called a sandwich ... its just "hot dog." I'm not sure what to think.

Help me out here!

Right now, I am in my shop on a Saturday morning working my 18th straight day. I also have to work tomorrow and Monday before I finally get two days off on July 4th and the 5th. If I counted right, and I think that I have, I will have worked 20 straight days come Monday. Honestly, it has really benefited me for a couple reasons : One, I am on hourly income so in the more than 5 years that I have been here in the shop, this will be the most I have made in a month. And two, its also been the most I have ever sold in a month. June 2017 will not be forgotten lol

I need a vacation ...

greenluigi : Congrats man! Never doubted you for a second lol
