Welp, here it is. I saw all the activity, so I asked Light Knight if I could have an AMA again. I haven't had one in years, so this should be fun.
Please keep questions respectful. Other than that, ask away, as long as they follow the rules of the board.

Light Knight : granted permission for this.

Have you ever had a thread like this before? How long have you wanted to have this one?

Why would you ever change your username from thing1 to "Thingywingy"?

To go off of what tgags123 asked, if you were going to change your username again, what would you change it to? 

What are the most valuable sports cards that you own?

Oh, fun. Good questions to get started.

Light Knight : I have had an AMA before, actually. I had to have a rented forum, but I had one. I think it was a few years ago, but I could be wrong.

tgags123 : because I had the viz, and yoshirulez! called me "thingywingy" for a time to annoy me.

Barathemos : If I were to change it, it would probably be "DCM7734". It's my tag on just about every other site, platform, you name it. XBOX, PS4, twitter (had to make a new one @realDCM7734 I think, because the original was hacked). But, I've been around for 7 years, so if I changed from thing1 to DCM7734, it would just feel too weird, you know?

zanderlex : Hmmm, good question. I still have to add Mason(or about that) through the Z's and cards multiple players from my binders, but as of now, I think the most valuable, at least by Beckett terms, is a 2007 Ed Reed auto and relic card: "2010 Topps Tribute Autographed Triple Relics Gold #ATRER Ed Reed". It's numbered 15/15 and Beckett says it's a $100 at an 8 grade (I don't do graded cards. If it looks good, I give it an 8. If there's a ding, I give it the ol' eyeball test, and mark it accordingly. However, if there's a ding that you can see without looking to hard, I'll still look for a card that's in better shape for my PC)

What does DCM7734 stand for? Not too similar to thing1. 

Also, you remember I own your soul, right? I paid a lottt of Viz for it. 

Barathemos : DCM7734 is actually unique. I came up with it when I was trying to be a hard-ass at the end of middle school, or my freshman year of High School. DCM is my initials, and 7734 was the hard-ass part. See, I was always a math nerd (now, not so much, but I'm still pretty good at the basics). If you put 7734 into a calculator, turn it upside down, you get "Hell". So, it was my nerdy way at 15 years old to say "I'm nice, but if you turn me over and piss me off, I'm going to be trouble for you."

Who is your hero?

If you could live anywhere, where would it be?

What is your biggest fear?

What is your favorite family vacation?

geeogree :
I don't really have heroes or idols. I mean, I respect the hell out of my father, but that's about as close as I'll get to idolizing or hero worshiping somebody.
If I could live anywhere? That's tough. I've lived in Hawai'i, and I hated it. I have lots of family in Washington state, but I left there because I got tired of the politics. I like the south, but it's not where I want to spend the rest of my life. Honestly, it'd probably be somewhere near my parents. They are talking about buying a house and settling down around Baltimore because that's where their VA jobs took them. I could see Baltimore; it's got my favorite football team, the Ravens. D.C. is just down the road, where's there's so much history. And speaking of the history, as a history major, there should be tons of job opprotunities for me. So for now, I'll say the Baltimore / D.C. region.
My biggest fear? That's tough. But, for now, I would have to say not getting married. When I was beginning life on my own, I always thought I would be married by 25, and getting ready to have kids. Well, I'm 25, I have a year and a half left of college, and I'm single. I'm afraid that time is running out for me to find someone to spend the rest of my life with. I mean, I'm not hideous, but I'm by no means a looker, either.
My favorite family vacation would probably have to be one of the only ones I actually remember, and that would be our yearly trips to Panama City Beach.

Do you think you can beat SacredShadow for the blue jersey today? Are you going to be upset if you don't?

tgags123 : I wouldn't have been upset, no. I was actually focusing on trying to pass geeo in green, and sneak in and steal some points in red, and then he came in and tried to take my blue. It was fun. I didn't think I had a 100+ post day in me.

What was it that made you join Vizzed in the first place, and what is it that's made you stick around over the time you've been here?

What are your favorite and least favorite moments that you've had on Vizzed?

If you could go back in time 10 years and tell yourself one thing, what would it be?

Have you done anything within the past month that you already regret, and why?

NovemberJoy : It was a friend who showed me the site my freshman year of high school when I was looking to play some Mario Kart 64. As for why I've stuck around, I originally didn't know about the forum side for quite some time. I started for the games, and stayed for the forum. At first, it was a legit addiction. I couldn't function without the site.

I think my favorite moment is when I won the Tour de Vizzed that one time. As for my least favorite, I think we all know the answer, and I'm going to decline to comment on it to avoid drama, and I hope people will respect that and not ask more about that particular situation.


tgags123 : 10 years? I'd think I would tell myself not to quit football my junior year of high school. It's one thing I legitimately regret, and there's not a lot of things in my life that I actually regret.

Furret : Saw this after I got home. I left this page up and realized I had forgotten to reply to tgags and November, sorry.

No, there's nothing in the past month that I regret. I haven't done much the past month at all.

On a scale of 1-10, how surprised were you that the Ravens won the AFC North?

What are your thoughts on your current president? Are you hoping he gets re-elected or is there someone else you think should be elected?

What are your thoughts on religion? Do you subscribe to any particular religious ideology? Do you think religion in general is good or bad for society? What do you think happens to people after they die? Is that just the end, or is there some sort of afterlife?

gamerforlifeforever : Probably a 6 or a 7. I'm not surprised because the schedule was kind of weak, but the fact that the Steelers sucked it up so bad that the Ravens and the horrible excuse for a quarterback known as Lamar Jackson pulled that mess off.

Furret : I voted for him. I think some things he's doing are stupid, but for the most part, I'm pretty happy. I love seeing him change the game up. And don't get me started on how all the liberals get pissed off and we get to see the Democrats and media's hypocrasy. Oh man, I need a good laugh every now and then, but now I get it almost every day.
As for will vote to keep him in office? Not sure yet. We'll have to see who ends up running against him, but more than likely, I'll vote for Trump.

tgags123 : I'm not sure to be honest. I'm kind of on the edge of agnosticism and baptist/Christian.
I think religion is alright for society. Not saying it's good or bad right now.
I'm not sure what happens to people after they die, or if there is some king of afterlife, and that's what is keeping from deciding on religion for myself.

Ok, I have some question based on your response to Furret lol.

Out of all of the candidates in the primaries in 2016, was Trump your favorite? If not, who was?

If another Republican that was more of a traditional conservative (as opposed to a right-wing populist like Trump) challenged Trump in 2020, who would you be more likely to support?

tgags123 : Wow, actually respectful questions. I have to admit, I wasn't expecting that when I saw you what you wanted to reply to.

Uh, I was a Bernie guy at first, honestly. But, when I discovered what he wanted to do with the economy (socialism, tons of free stuff...), I was no longer a fan. I am not interested in my taxes going up to pay for other people's stuff, let alone illegals.
I was definitely anti-Hillary, and I really only needed one good reason: Benghazi. She left our men to die over there. I don't want no (insert multiple not-safe-for-Vizzed words here) of a woman being my president and commander in chief.

I don't know of anybody that would challenge Trump. I mean, I'm going to look at everybody, and pick who I think would be the best president for me. I voted for Trump because I agreed with his policies on the Eastern countries, I agreed with the walls and how we should handle illegals, and I was very happy with his promise to fix the VA. He's helped with the economy and trade, he's made taxes better, and he's gotten to work on a ton of other things.
I just heard on the news this morning that a female veteran is planning on running for president, and is going to make a formal announcement soon, but she's a Democrat, so more than likely, I won't even look her way.
Personally, I tend to be very central whenever I take those political tests, with just the smallest of favortism towarsd Rebulican / Conservative. However, with the way the current U.S. political system works, you have to give the president the full 8 years to really do a ton, so I don't see anyone that could take my vote from Trump away next year. Maybe Mattis if he runs, but 1) he says he's not going to, and 2) he's a Democrat.

What would you change about yourself if you could?

What really makes you angry?

What motivates you to work hard?

What's your favorite style of clothing to wear?

geeogree : Well, considering you said "about yourself" and not "about your past", that means I actually had to think about this a little bit. I recently found out that I am slightly overweight. That doesn't bother me that much, because I am about to get a personal trainer with a friend. What does bother me is that what I will be able to do will be limited because of my detoriating knees and numerous issues with my back. If I could get rid of that, I'd be golden.

There are a lot of things that make me angry. But, the thing that probably makes me filled with as much rage as a person can take before literally exploding is being called a liar to my face when I know for a fact I am not. I've fought somebody before over this, and they started to look at me a little differently after that, but at least it was for the better.

As for what motivates me to work "hard", that's probably one of the easiest questions so far: the idea of being able to handle and maintain the future and my lifestyle.


Furret : I don't really have a style, per say. But, I tend to wear jeans and a shirt. Usually, the shirt is black or some kind of silky feeling. Other than that, not much of a style.

I'm the same, I just wear whatever really. Unless hoodies count as a style? I have like 20 different hoodies but only 5 pairs of jeans and 2 pairs of shoes.

What's the best purchase you ever made and why?

What's the worst purchase you ever made and why?

I would have voted for Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton as well if I was a few months older when the election was happening, so obviously I'm not going to rip your for it lol.

Since you're former military, do you generally think more highly of people with military experience when it comes to politics? Or is that not something that plays into your voting decisions?

Furret : The smartest purchase I ever made was probably buying my first dog my Freshman year of college 2 years ago, Charlie Brown. He helped me calm down and get into a groove when my life was already hectic enough without having just starting college.
The worst purchase is a hard one. Maybe some airline tickets abotu 5 or 6 years ago that I never actually used? I'm not sure.

tgags123 : So, if a person has military background, I will actually give them a closer look when it comes to politics. However, if they are Democrat, they lose a ton of points with me, and if they are Republican, they gain a few (way less than what Democrats loose). Not sure if I said it before in this thread, but I tend to look more at their policies than their political party, though I do consider that.

Who do you think will win the Super Bowl?

Is thing2 your burner account? Lol.

Do you believe in anything supernatural? Can range from religion all the way to ghosts.

gamerforlifeforever : I really did not want the Patriots to make it. All 4 teams got screwed last night, some more royally than others. As long as the Patriots don't win (so I guess the Rams), I don't care. A part of me wants Brady and the Pats to win #6, but then we would NEVER EVER EVER hear the end of it. And Pats fans are already bad enough. So... #ScrewThePatriots

tgags123 : thing2 is not mine, actually. I made the "System" account as a joke awhile back to mess with people in chat, but I gave it up after 2 days, like I said I would. I actually have no idea who thing2 is.

Furret : I don't believe in any religion, or the supernatural, I guess. I mean, I'm agnostic, and I think I've seen some phantoms, but that's about it.

What about thing3?

What is something you've never gotten around to doing that you would really like to do?

Who is your favorite actor / actress?

Is it because of one specific movie / show or their personality / talent in general?

Do you watch college basketball?

tgags123 : Nope, not thing3 either. I have no reregs.
Actually, I take that back. I had to make a rereg once, but I forget why. I think my account got hacked or something? I can't remember.
Furret : I don't know favorite actor / actresses. I do movies. However, if a movie has Morgan Freeman, it gets instant credibility for me, so let's go with that. As for why, do I really need to say?
gamerforlifeforever : Nope. Couldn't give a rat's butt about basketball. Nor college sports for that matter. But, I'm in college, so I have to give a little bit of a rat's butt. It doesn't help that my university's basketball team actually got good last year, so... *ugh*

Do you consider yourself to generally be a lucky or unlucky person?

Also, who is that in your profile picture?

tgags123 : I'm not sure if I'm lucky or not. I suppose I would say lucky, because I've been in a few major accidents, and I've escaped barely scathed.

That would be Seth Rollins. I suppose it's time to change it, since it's been a few years and I don't watch WWE anymore.

What was your favorite game growing up?

If you could meet any person for one hour, who would it be? You cannot take a picture with this person or get an autograph or anything, you can only talk to them. You have no way to prove to anyone that you actually met this person, so don't take clout into account.

Furret : I would have to say that my favorite game growing up was Mario Kart 64. There were phases where I wasn't allowed to play games because my parents treated me the worst (the oldest). Eventually, they wised up and realized that that was wrong. But, my mind always went back to Mario Kart 64 growing up. Now, my favorite game today would definitley be different, but I have no idea what it would actually be.

tgags123 : That on's easy; Andrew Jackson. I'm related to him through his wife. He never had kids, so it gets a little complicated.

What was your favorite thing to do in your free time as a kid, and what is your favorite thing to do in your free time now?

What's your favorite kind of fruit? 

What about your favorite vegetable?

tgags123 : Growing up, my favorite thing to do in my free time was probably to work on my football cards, or play some video games. And since most of the time I wasn't allowed tot play video games, I mostly worked on my football cards. And when I tired of that, I would actually read a book, unlike today.
As for today, probably think about how I'm single, and how I wished I had a girlfriend. lol In all seriousness, just lay on the bed, forget about college and life, and just watch YouTube or a movie while relaxing with the dogs is my go to me time these days.

Furret : My favorite kind of fruit? I guess berries. If you mean my actual favorite fruit, then I'm not sure. It would probably be a banana or strawberries, as those are usually the flavors I get in milkshakes.
As for vegitable, that one is easy: corn.

What's the best joke you've ever been told? 

What is the worst job you've ever had?

Other than the military, what is the best job you've ever had?

Are there any sports besides football that you enjoy?

Furret : The best joke I've ever heard is not appropriate for Vizzed, unfortanately. Also, it's better told orally. It not nearly as funny if you are just reading it.

tgags123 : The worst job? Probably working at K-Mart after I got out of the Army. I got accused of being racist, when I stayed to myself 100% of the time.
The best job that wasn't the Army? I haven't had many other jobs... I've done pizza delivery a few times, and it wasn't all that cool. Uber falls into the same category. So I guess that leaves working for GameStop this past holiday season.

gamerforlifeforever : I will occasionally turn my ear towards baseball, but as a Mariners fan, it doesn't happen very often.
Hockey is something I've started to take an interest in. Just as I had decided to be a Predators fan since that's my friend's team (and a stupid reason, but a reason none-the-less: they have a black player), Seattle announced that they are getting a team. Which is funny, because I kind of despise Seattle as a whole, but I have so much family all over the state (mostly on the other side of the mountain) that I just tell people that I'm from Seattle if they ask, and then explain that I don't really have a from since I'm a veteran and an Army brat.

Lmao is that the only time you've ever been accused of being racist, or has it happened before? I get it a lot. Not from people that actually know me though, just people online that see I'm a conservative and jump to conclusions.
