Getting medal points is like Sisyphus rolling a rock up hill; as soon as you get close to having them all, another game comes out. :)

Ahoy, and thar's still games for me t' play. I got verily lazy at one point and then came fi'e or so games. It'll only get worse later on. Aye.

Aye, me don't mind gettin' German recommendations, tis' just strange t' get a bunch all at once.

And thus you finally listened to Knights of Cydonia. Good to know you liked the song.

Yes, it's nice. But I don't think I'll buy any Muse albums in the near future. ^^

Arrr, what about just buyin' the song itself? Gar.

I much prefer Hangar 18 over The Call of Ktulu but as for the whole Metallica and Megadeth debate, both are awesome bands but I'm slightly leaning more towards Megadeth.

LOL! You fail.

Yeah right.

Glad that you agree with me. :P

Aye, that was a sarcastic agreement. Aye, me parrot concurs.

He was more metal than Metallica. :P ...And still is.

Wait, being drunk all the time = being more metal? I don't think so. :P

Ahoy, you verily need your metalness impro'ed. Gar, Where can I find a bottle o'rum?

Mustaine is a pretty sad case, imo. He's a genius even though he drank away most of his brain by now. Just think what he could've done if he wasn't drunk all the time.

Arrr, da'e Mustaine is fuckin' awesome, argh!

Alright, I'll have to show you some Kreator when you're on MSN/AIM again.

I'll just check their home- and myspace-page. ;)
And if I like it, I'll have a look at youtube.

Aye, or you could do that. Why didn't you do that for Muse? And how about doin' the same thin' for Megadeth? Ye'll ne'er get me buried booty!

Far from it, I know how to spell awesome correctly and when I mean awesome, I literally mean awesome.

Fixed for you.

What fix?

That one.

You're not making sense, I see no fixes.

That's because you constantly change my fixes back.

Liar, I never made any fix backs.

You're the liar.

Off the plank!

But Manowar's music is far superior to St. Anger.

You fail again.

Aye, me ne'er fail, I'm definitely right about Manowar's music bein' great. You just can't accept my thoughts on their music. Gar.

Aye, what about Runnin' Wild and Alestorm? Gar.

No, it was an unintentional typo, don't deny it.

Everything I type I really wanted to type that way.

Ahoy, quit hidin' the facts, it was an unintentional typo and you know it was. Gar, Where can I find a bottle o'rum?

That's good to hear, you'll soon get your sudden boost in total reviews.

With the amount I've written over the last week, it's starting to sound insignificant :P

Ahoy, you'll be surprised. Gar.

I haven't retired from B/P'ing just yet. I'm very close, though.

Nope, but you've practically retired from Reviewing :P

Aye.

Woohoo 7k Saves, me hearties!

I would have not been surprised if he did. Philadelphia fan are that notoriously bad; from pelting Santa Claus with snowballs to cheering injured players, they are not the most gracious fans.

Well, they do have the dubious honour of being the longest suffering team in professional sports - having become the first major league team to record 10,000 losses. Over the next few years, we may well see the Atlanta Braves (9,821), Chicago Cubs (9,595), Cincinnati Reds (9,554) and Pittsburgh Pirates (9,666?) also record this dubious milestone.

I wonder how many losses the Yanks have... 7,235 Tidy.

Well, the vinegar is something that I only tend to put over deep fried fish. I was never really a fan of vinegar on my chips. I can eat salt & vinegar crisps though, they can be quite nice. Vinegar is just a base for HP though - the real flavour is a fruity BBQ flavour.

Yes okay. But I think they´re just blowing it up a little bit:
"Steve Monforto did a great job of reminding us what's really important about the game, no matter where our allegiance lies. What he did is something any father-daughter team can relate to."

Stuff like that. Coming up with moralities and principles and all. It sounds so typically American to me.

True. Of course I'm referring not just to the Philiies, but all Philadelphia fans; 76ers, Eagles, Flyers.

That's an interesting stat. I didn't know so many teams were that close to 10k losses. Seeing how the Cubbies like to implode mid-season I think they can surpass the Braves and reach that milestone next.

500 Audio Reviews! :D

I don't even know my level.
Sad.

Arrr, try askin' Den'ish that from 2004 and 2005. A pence for an old man o'de sea?

Ok, i'm glad i was not here yesterday. I can only understand the first sentence :::goes to google and looks for a translator::::

Glad to hear, i was so accustomed to you posting every day in any thread you could help in. Then you became a mod and left us for the general @;-}.

Level 17.

Stupid looking sword and sheath? That's a katana and wakisashi pair. Haven't you ever watched a decent samurai flick?

There're few. Watched 'Last of the Samurai' with Tom Cruise, which I actually like... but feel that I must resent for hating my freshman roommate in college. Gay, dance major, anime obsessed room mate. Yea.

But, I've been playing Ninja Gaiden II, and now that you mention the pair I do recognize them. They're just poorly cropped into the level icon, and thusly I hate it.

Yea, and lvl 42's pretty nice as well. I enjoyed my time there thoroughly. Thanks for the congrats.

I had to post in here again to congratulate gfox on his having finally hit the top 50. That's QUITE the achievement right there. I hope to join in on the fun down there 100 spots improved from my current rank within the next 2-3 years, I suppose. Odds are it'll be a lot tougher than that appraisal says. I really should get myself to 30k b/p though... not maxing out my voting potential is kinda starting to bother me.

Top 800 users!

Coop browses through books of wonders, creating a story for a new game. Congratulations to:
Odyssic: Level 34 - I concur.

Thanks, although somehow I doubt I could top you in a Futurama-quoting contest :P

Funnily enough, I was thinking of the quote from Mom at the time:

"Well boys, your old mother knows when she's been beat. You win, young man. I tip my bonnet to you."

And no, you wouldn't :P

SKY IS NOT A PARROT!!!

Of course not - I wouldn't dream of using Sky for a pro- sorry, co-actor in a reproduction of Monty Python's Dead Parrot Sketch. He was merely method acting.

Yes okay. But I think they´re just blowing it up a little bit:
"Steve Monforto did a great job of reminding us what's really important about the game, no matter where our allegiance lies. What he did is something any father-daughter team can relate to."

Stuff like that. Coming up with moralities and principles and all. It sounds so typically American to me.

Yeah, but it's one of those feel good stories from the end of the News.

"Breaking News, North Korea invades South Korea. World War 3 is just around the corner! But now, a father shows his daughter some love, after she throws away his first souvenir baseball, after he watched the Phillies for 25 years. Aaw."

Well, the Braves would need to suck royally for 2-3 years to reach the 178 more losses required. The Cubs have had a longer history and have managed to hold their own in the regular season, saving the suckage mainly for the playoffs. 405 losses could take 5 or 6 years for the Cubs to achieve, as it doesn't count playoff losses. I don't think they'd have 10k, even if postseason was taken into consideration, either... Nope, they're only 29-55 in postseason, so they're still short of 10k.

Damned Cubs can't do anything right :P

Heh, I watched United vs City today, my brother nearly trashed his desk (he's a City fan). :D
But I didn't really get why the ref didn't end the game after 2 minutes of extra time already. There really was no need to let them play that long.

It's kind of a house rule at Old Trafford - they play just long enough to get the goal they need :P Remember the Champions League final in 1999? Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scoring the winner deep into injury time. Michael Owen seems to be filling that role.

I never understood why you brits have to pour vinegar over every food you eat. Hell, you even have crisps with vinegar flavour. ^^

Well, the vinegar is something that I only tend to put over deep fried fish. I was never really a fan of vinegar on my chips. I can eat salt & vinegar crisps though, they can be quite nice. Vinegar is just a base for HP though - the real flavour is a fruity BBQ flavour.

A friend of mine who's father was from the UK said: "They do it because the food tastes so awful, so they need something to make that stuff taste better." Do you agree with that? :P

Not at all. I think that your friend's father may not have had the time to taste all of the culinary delights of the UK, which is saddening to hear a fellow country man saying that about home cooking.

Perhaps he should try Brains' faggots ;)

Last time I was in GB food wasn't bad, but maybe it was because I was mostly eating at restaurants.
And I remember me being in a supermarket, in front of me a storage rack full of brown sauce... boy that smell nearly etched off my nasal mucosa. ^^

There are worse smells, trust me. When someone drops a bottle of white wine in the aisles in a supermarket, you end up with a vinegar like smell within minutes. That stuff takes a while to shift.

Sounds like Stamper... You have my sympathies for such a room mate. At least it's not as bad as the couple who shared a room above me when I was at Uni - never went out, serial drinkers, spent most of their time when I was in watching the X-Files and shagging noisily. *shudders*

But, I've been playing Ninja Gaiden II, and now that you mention the pair I do recognize them.

Glad I could be of assistance.

I blame Stamper - his drawing, I think.

Odyssic had a hair cut for the first time this year.

No, my win. Because I have more money to buy other stuff then.

You have a point. I call it a win-loss situation. If you buy the one track, you'll have it to listen to wherever but if you don't, you won't have it but there's always money for other things. :)

I'm sorry but I do not fail for thinking Megadeth are better than Metallica.

Yes, you do. :P

I. DO. NOT. FAIL.

Ahoy, you verily need your metalness impro'ed. Gar, Where can I find a bottle o'rum?

Over there -->

Thanks, I enjoyed it.

Good. :)

It was great with Running Wild playing very loud.

Either way, it's highly recommended you listen to some Megadeth.

Yeah, maybe some day...

You don't seem that bothered at all. :P

Oh yes there was. Now you go and this argument on myself thinking Slayer and Manowar are awesome is over.

Couldn't we just end this argument without me jumping off the plank?

Sorry but off you go! *pushes Haggard off the plank thus ending the argument*

You didn't accept mine in the first place. >:(

And I can never accept them.

That's too bad then.

I wouldn't recommend later Running Wild material. Supposedly, it's their weakest stuff and I suggest listening to Black Hand Inn.

I have a few songs off that album. But I think "Under Jolly Roger" and "Port Royal" are better.

I still need Port Royal. It's really hard to get one in CD these days. :( However, I've seen one bid on eBay at a fair price so here's hoping I can get it. It's a shame some of their albums are difficult to get. There was enough hassle getting Death or Glory since I had to buy a second hand copy from Japan for £15.

I said "Try asking Denvish that from 2004 and 2005." He was extremely active in B/P'ing back in the days.

Level 42 is a damn epic level, especially when a guy named Bahamut gets it.
