Thanks for being honest. It does take being committed to be a part of this tournament...

Okay.....
Moving right along, we're really sorry to see you....

Gary Busey wrote:Look all I said in the interview was:
Excerpt from Gary Busey interview (seriously) wrote:"One night...at [the hospital], I was sitting in bed...and saw the Grim Reaper standing in the corner. He was seven feet tall, with a brown robe. He pointed to me and said, 'Relax, it's not your time to go. You have been given gifts. These gifts are ready to be received by mankind. So get on your feet and improve.' Then he laughed, spun his scythe and left. I wasn't asleep and I hadn't been for days. Whether this was a premonition or an angel in disguise, I don't know. But it was a positive reinforcement to stay on the road to recovery, which I've done."
Now would you have committed me?
Will you kill me if I say yes?

Then of course not....

Thanks for being upfront whitestazn88, and hope you can play next time.

I've never actually played CC against a baby before, but I have no problem whoopin the crap out of my kids in every game we play and then rubbing it in their faces.
SUCK IT UP!!!! That's why they call Chutes and Ladders a full contact game!!! Jeez, such a friggin baby.
Welcome to the game.

Darin...Darin. There has to be something ridiculous about the name Darin...Nope not a friggin thing. You poor boring bastard. Welcome to the island. Maybe you should spend some time with the dog.
I take that back every negative thing I said about that dog. I like the dog.
It's his owner who is the freak.
Welcome to the game.

You sharpie, unlike our boring friend Darin, have so much going for you that my spleen almost dropped out of my ass.
Let's review sharpie's "fun-o-meter" scale.
- college student at one of the nation's top schools
- named after a small marker pen
- Has an image from a popular children's cartoon
- Quotes a popular children's movie from the 80's
- Plays CC avidly enough to join a tournament
Yep my friend. I'm sorry. You are officially classified as:
UBER DORKYou are hereby banished to the D&D room.

I like you peanutsdad. You're not afraid to definie yourself through the lives of your children. I'm right there with you. In fact, here in the Mushin household we take it a step further. We embrace the fact that we are going to give our kids complexes and have fun with it. Me and my wife have a running bet on who can give the kids the most "jacked-up" complex for a shrink to figure out when they get older.
The loser of the bet has to die firstLast Saturday my wife went to the store and I was busy watching the NCAA tournaments. It was a perfect opportunity to mess with my son. I'm hoping this gives him some strange fear of basketball, duct tape, refrigerators, and ducks.
I'm really going to have to figure out how to build on it though. My wife has had years of randomly throwing stray animals into the bathtub with the kids when they least expect it.
Man I love her.
Welcome to our sick sad little world peanutsdad.

Naming yourself after a truck manufacturer? Come on. I don't know if that's going to have what it takes when it comes to CC devotion. A name like that says "I'm a normal person" and not the "I'm willing to forgo contact with other humans for the next three months in order to win this thing" attitude it takes to be a champion. Like the guy who makes this into his avatar.
What the hell is that even supposed to be exterminator, and where can I get me one?My point is, I'm not sure that with a name like "GMC" you have given enough of your life to CC in order to be truly competitive.
You have you're four basic kinds of CC players who attain greatness:
cjoe wrote:Here we friggin go again
One more comment like that and I'm turning you over to Nolte.
As I was saying, there are four types of "people" who excel at Conquer Club;
The first is the young
"Padawin Dork"These are young "warrior" can be identified by their outstanding play...and unbelievable whininess. They are young, smart, and spending lots of time alone contemplating not only the next move on the Age of Merchants map, but also what shocking curse word they are going to use to celebrate their win. Meanwhile, their peers are busy finding dates for the dance. Their full CC greatness has yet to be tapped realized, but they are well on their way down the road to CC greatness. Play on young dorks, for it is to you we shall pass the torch.
Next you have your 20-something
Ninja Warrior dorks.
These studs are the heart of our strength. Young, single, twenty something (usually male) who are into cheesy cartoon references and sacrificing sleep for the good of the game. All hail the young champions of our cause. We salute your use of ninja-like gaming skills to conquer the world. Well not the real world of course...I mean the CC world. Please refrain from conquering any real neighbors.
This may land you and jail, and you will not do very well in jail.
This brings us to our third type of CC warrior, the 30-something,
"Keepers of the Sacred Wallet" dorks.
These are the backbone of the dork pantheon, or as the CC staff likes to call them the "cash cows". These dorks do not have the time that the other levels of CC greats have to dedicate to gaming. They are usually busy with jobs and raising young Padawins.
Tiny wrote:OH MY GOD THEY'RE BREEDING!!!
But they have something the other's don't. Big fat dork paychecks which the use on costumes and CC memberships. On behalf of all broke dorks, thank you 30 somethings for keeping the site running.
The last and saddest of the crew is the "UBER DORK"
Penniless, dateless, and proud of it. If you don't know any CC members who are an Uber Dork it's because you are the Uber Dork.
cjoe wrote:Are you finished yet?
Almost
I know that I am leaving out several important groups:
old dorks:
Star Trek dorks:
living at home with mother at 40 slightly creepy dorks:
But it's my post, so deal with it.
What I'm trying to say GMC is that you may have to up your game if you want to play with the big "boys"
Welcome to the island GMC.

You're right Gary. That was awesome. What I don't understand is how in calchmbrs and Nick Nolte both managed to use the same tattoo artist.
Welcome to the game calchmbrs.
WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!! 96 PLAYERS!!!!MUSHIN's DISCLAIMER:

If I have offended anyone while writing this, part of me says sorry, part of me says get over it, and part of me is laughing. At the request of my wife though, please do not call children's services. Or at least let me know so I can remove the kid from the fridge before they get here.THIS HAS ALL BEEN A JOKE!!!
Please do not take this seriouslyI hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.LETS GET IT ON!!!!!
