    Stories From Airsoft (Paintball Welcome as Well)

    I've heard some stories from when my brother and his friends have gone airsofting. There's a good reason its now 'knife kill' instead of 'melee kill'. The incident apparently involved something black and generally for personal and intimate use. As for myself, well apart from being crap at...

    Question to Magic the Gathering Players

    With the amount I see spent on cards for a tournament worthy deck you're probably better sticking to casual. I prefer 1-1 in most cases when testing a new deck, but with free for all I find it can be easier if my deck isn't good against someone else's, that way there are other threats and I...

    the "Why didn't they just shoot Voldemort?" thread

    Why don't they just use a Death Note? Wrong fandom because wizards lack creativity. Anyway, what about conjuring fast projectile bullets? No pesky mechanism that, depending on who's arguing, may or may not work in a magical environment. If guns do work magic could make the bullets invisible...

    Poll: What is your opinion on tvtropes?

    For a while I always had about 30 tabs of it open at any given point. Now, if I watch something new then I will look at the trope page to see what it's got and maybe expand a bit, I haven't had more than about 5 tabs for months now. Does this make me a recovering Tropeaholic?

    What Made you a Gamer?

    Complete lack of social life. According to my mum I started playing with a computer at 18 months( climbing onto her lap and pushing keys) eventually she made a program that made the screen change colour with every key press and a specific combo to exit. Then, as there weren't many kids nearby...

    Poll: How easily does your nose bleed?

    Friends Christmas party, just started drinking and suddenly my nose decides to let loose blood for a good 20 minutes to the point we were considering hospital. Probably wasn't my best idea to continue drinking when the nose bleed had stopped.

    What are you ESCAPING from?

    Currently? A lab report, a statistical analysis of crime in my area and an essay on some legislation, plus numerous pieces of reading I should have been doing since last September. In general: the boredom of a Monday night, one of my housemates stupidity and the others oddities.

    How are the NaNoWriMo Preperations Going?

    I might try it again this year, with any luck I'll have enough work I need to procrastinate from to get the novel finished. On the flip side I might procrastinate from NaNoWriMo enough to actually do some of my assignments... or maybe the washing up once in a while... or even just give this...

    What put, (or has put you) in a downer mood?

    I know the feeling. Only my dad has been bitching since I finished my exams over a month ago that I better get into University. Well I did (my first choice Uni and everything) and it's still not good enough for him because my grades still weren't great.

    Remember Neopets?

    I used to have an account donkeys years ago, I've long since forgotten about it all(username and password) Apparently the original creators went to the same school as me, probably long before I turned up, but still gives me a small sense of pride.

    What do you name your flash drives?

    The one I used for my computing class was named after me so when I forgot it(which happened frequently) I would get it back (I'm currently the only person with my first name at my school) My external HHD is called Narnia and the storage on my phone is 'The Talking Box'

    The worst drink mixture ever

    With my bad habit of mixing drinks(Mostly non alcoholic) I have come across many weird mixtures. The worst: Irn-bru and pineapple juice Never again will allow that mixture near me.

    Fan-Fiction

    You know what, I completely agree that it's awesome, I need to catch up with it at some point. It's the only one I've come across that I actually feel I've learnt something after reading. With most fan-fiction it's a case of your mileage may vary, it depends on what you like.

    You Know You're Too Much Of A Gamer When ....

    I know the feeling and its very strange (I also play pc games). I played xbox a few times ages ago but the way my hand were just felt comfortable so my hands go like that because it was comfortable. The only time it changes is after I've been doing some excessive typing and that stops after a...
