Didn't want to post so soon after posting a news post, but this warranted it, please check the previous post as it's much more interesting
Not entirely sure what inspired this (I'd guess a ban, but the guy that gave him a 30 left the username in the ban, so w/e), but I really think that some people need to think about best to flame people. This is an example of the "falcon punch" school of flaming - if you don't see it coming, it's really quite effective, but everyone does, it got old before the OP was out of diapers, isn't the slightest bit interesting or original and shows a complete lack of effort. I seriously wonder why people like this bother to breathe in and out, let alone try to send PM's and expect anything else apart from ridicule.
Addendum: I'm mildly surprised he could spell "you're"

+$780 from STT's
+$1800 from donkaments
+$170 from rakeback/miscellaneous bonii
Spent:
-$800 on mod meat 08 flights
-$420 on Wii+TP (yes, we get raped on prices here, I know)
-$300 on 22" widescreen LCD monitor
I'm also one of the top 50 low limit STT players on Full Tilt, apparently. Go me.
More importantly, I have a job interview on Friday which, if landed, will give me pretty much everything I want in terms of work, i.e. location, hours, money, responsibility. Let me land this one time please god or I will incinerate something in some kind of grease fire. ONE TIME.

Just got back from town now with one. Zelda had better kick as much massive ass as everyone says it does. Will likely buy a classic controller at some point and download Super Metroid (LDO) and Mario 64, I missed that generation of Nintendo's hardware and never played it.
Also cocks.

Check out my terrible flash that I uploaded. Be sure to check the front page for the best of what's been submitted, rather than trying to scythe through the portal manually, and check out the CC history page if you don't get all this stuff. Some older clock stuff that you need to check out (aside from B, ldo) includes The Void (by Blue), Sonne (by Avocado), and Weaksauce's True North.
Also, vote 5!

Bastard isn't supposed to wake up with KK when I shove 64cc on a 565J two club board

Have been pretty busy of late. Basically I'm playing a lot of poker of recent (having a go at the FTP leaderboard, currently top 50 in the low-limit STT table - over 300 STT's so far in August), and have been spending more time on gamefaqs over the past week or two. Will likely be over there more than here over the next couple of months while the contest is on, the BBS is pretty sucky right now. I'll likely be on for a fair bit during clock day though, as the gazillions of save points are too tempting to miss. Was going to quickly knock up some crap but I'd have to download the flash trial on this computer and I couldn't be arsed.
Also spending time looking for work and doing some poker writing.

As many of you may or may not know, I wield mod powers over there as well, and the contest board is basically my "home" board. Anyway, the nominations for the annual whinefest opened up last night, so if you've got an account there, go to http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/feedb ack/contest_nominate_cb6.php and nominate Jigglypuff, CATS, Gordon Freeman and Dan Hibiki. For great justice.

Seeing how at the last check the poker club was basically dead, there's not likely enough demand to get it started again, but likely plenty of people who play the game on a regular or occasional basis. So, if you've got any questions, hands you want pointers on, or anything poker related, shove them here in a comment and I'll see what I can do. All I ask is if you're posting a hand, give as many details as you have - an online hand really just needs reads and tournament status (if relevant - basically runners, left, in rebuy period, near bubble or pay jump, on final table, etc), anything else needs effective stacks, position, action, everything else. It seems like a lot, but if you miss out a lot of this kind of things you'll likely end up with an "it depends" answer.
The image shows why I'm so good.
