Things you WISH you could brag about, but you know no one cares about.

[C F]

I am rather-good at walking, running, and jumping quietly. I found it out when a friend of mine who did freerunning took me on a rooftop climb at night, and we had to be quiet so we we're mistaken for thieves.

It made me feel like a ninja, although I'm pretty sure nobody but me could give anything approaching a shit about the loudness of anyone's steps.

I find that pretty impressive, considering I've tried walking with muffled steps at least a couple times and failed miserably. I'm not the kind to intentionally conceal my presence.

As for me... Wow, it's times like this where I realize I don't catalogue my strengths in an accessible mental list designed for others. I guess I'm not really the bragging kind of guy. Hold on, I know there's something odd I could brag about...

Oh, yes. I've gotten really good at Minecraft for only having played it a couple months. I'm better than all my friends on Xbox LIVE, bar two who seem to be on my level. But those two have access to the PC version, and I'm fairly certain one of them actively uses my building style as inspiration to work from.

-I Can finnish mirrors edge using no glichs in only a couple hour without dying
-I created a new maths formula for an equation back in year 9, unfortunately it only worked for positive numbers.
-I got 100% in a year 4 maths test (and I now suck at maths)
-I defeated 8 brutals and am virtually undefeatable in bfme 2.
-I got crysis to run on an x300 64mb graphics card

I know there other inconsequential ones, but i cannot remember then right now

 

[Waffle_Man]

I know the aunt and uncle of a certain radio and television personality.

It seemed cool until I learned that he was bat shit insane.

I have customized the shit out of my computer and laptop which I customized the same way.

I have an 8 button mouse. One button closes the tab if it's something with tabs and the window if it's something else. One closes the window even if it's something with tabs. One refreshes, summons the radial menu if I drag down, summons the games radial menu if I move up, and moves back and forward if I go left or right. One adds the html tags around what I have selected for linking. One uncloses tabs. The right mouse button can mute, play and pause, and go to the and last track. Finally the middle button takes me to my most used sites.

It's one line, nothing but a single icon, tabs, and address bar. It's not shown, but any tab other than the currently open one is just an icon and the background is transparent. Speaking of which, it's all transparent.

 

[Dfskelleton]

2 things;
*I disassembled my old, broken computer entirely with no prior knowledge of how to do so.

*I completed the original Silent Hill in one sitting on my first full playthrough, with only 2 deaths, the best ending and a very high star ranking (it was either a 9 or a 10) on normal difficulty.

Of course, I know what a bad idea it is to bring things like that up around my peers.

 

[PsychedelicDiamond]

I have three stars on every level in Angry Birds. Yeah, it's just as unimpressive as it sounds like.

 

[rosac]

I got a finalist pin at golden daemon 2006 in the youngbloods category. Admitting to this is generally social suicide.

Also, having flown a glider solo aged 16.

The fuck? Are you even human?!

 

[Akytalusia]

i've been through the tunnel, and bathed in the light of the end. i know what these things are. but this isn't something you can just go around talking to people about as there's no evidence to support you. doesn't stop some people yeah, but look at how they're treated.

I finished the game and defeated sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts 2 on hard at level 40 or something back in the day, with one of the weaker keyblades (the winnie the pooh one I think).
In order to do so (in order to be so low level) I had to skip out on pretty much every random encounter (all non-boss battles),
(but the game is seriously easy on it's own even on hard while beeing too low level, I even deactivated Goofy and Donald entirely so it would be more challenging.)

Once when I was sitting in the sofa, I threw out my slippers (is that an english word?), they both did some flips, and then both landed exactly on their tip and stood perfectly still. I never managed to do that again (not even with one).

I memorised the entire introduction scene of Jak2 (which is about 10 minutes in total I think), dialogue and everything, the first time I saw it, by accident (I had no intension to do so), the game was just that awesome to me.

 

[thraza]

in the first month of one of my play through in x com. i managed to capture a sectoid leader during a base attack in the first month.

 

[IpunchFaces]

I can sketch, play the guitar, sing, sculpt, paint, dance, write literature and act. I got into taekwondo, boxing and a bit of freerunning (broke my arm and leg, I don't think I'll be doing it again anytime soon ._. ). I can also cook up a mean dish of fried rice.

My gripe? I am painfully mediocre in everything I do (except fried rice. People love that shit). So people don't go "OH WOW you can *ACTIVITY NAME PLACEHOLDER* ?!", most of the time they're like "Eh, that's alright. Nothing special though."

Also, I can burp at will.

yeah.

 

[Mojo]

I finished alot of the Riddler's riddels in Arkham City.

I'm playing BL2 on solo, which is hard.

Me too, maybe we should make some sort of uber-cool exclusive club

Sweet, can I join? Halfway through True Vault Hunter mode with Zero all on his lonesome...

What about me? We got 4 already, almost got us an entire party here.

OT: I made a Warcraft 3 map with over 5000 hits and 700 downloads on the hive. Does that count?
(Also several others I never uploaded.)
Also an UDK environment witch took me for ages, working on another one atm.

 

[Xariat]

I did a non-lethal run on hard in Mirrors edge...
not good enough?

I've completed every CoD game on very hard...
still not good enough?

I got A+ on every super meat boy level whilst playing with a keyboard.
now hows that?

Captcha: get out.
alright, there's just no pleasing you.

 

[Generalissimo]

[Ieyke]

Add me to the list of people who've collected almost all the Riddler Trophies in Arkham City. The only reason I don't have them all is because my PC s currently out of order.

Add me to the stealthy people list. I have always had an inherent aversion to drawing attention to my presence, and I think of it as very wrong to make noise in the dark, so I naturally learned to be very stealthy as I grew up, and then I was trained in ninjutsu where I was given formal stealth training.
When I'm alone and don't care I'm a big stompy juggernaut dude, but the moment it's dark or I want to avoid notice I go super stealthy.
My brother's girlfriend hates it. I'm constantly accidentally scaring her when I inevitably emerge from some dark shadowy area without her noticing, and then I say something and she starts freaking out like the Devil just materialized in front of her.

I have met Athena. I'm not going to try and explain that.

I'm a living encyclopedia of Marvel Comics, despite having basically never read a comic book.

I can do Stewie Griffin's voice. That's a recently discovered ability.

I can do most of these things: http://www.neatorama.com/2008/03/12/things-that-are-almost-impossible-to-do-with-your-body/

Um, I can raise one eyebrow... that's it.

Oh! I also have awesome hair. I can push it into any position and it stays there.
Jealous much?

 

[Ickorus]

My most recent would be when I was on PlanetSide 2 the other day I was in a flier being attacked by an enemy flier and I managed to pull off an epic maneuver and get behind him by performing half of a loop-de-loop and slowing down to a stop then I managed to shoot him down whilst falling due to lack of momentum and being upside down then manage to recover from it and survive the entire ordeal.

So what if I flew into a hill few minutes later.

 

[Padwolf]

I'm the best person I know at Sonic games. My records have never been beaten and when the multiplayer options came along I have never been beaten. The mulitplayer option in sonic adventure 2 battle currently stands at 598 to 0. Get 100 rings in city escape? done it in 40 seconds.

I can read books incredibly fast and take in every word I read. I know that's probably pretty darn common but whenever I'm reading and someone checks me on what I've read they give me a look and ask how I can read that fast and take it all in.
