It is heart warming to see the skinnygrinny username back. This said, that NA mod pic James posted just reminded me how humorous the transition from '42 foot tapeworm' to 'docile tapeworm' actually was, hahaha! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulpa | 3,537 Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 (edited) There was a point where Skinny was changing his username almost monthly. Typically with whatever bizarre trash talking he was using for the monthly challenge. The fact that he kept docile tapeworm for so long is a little surprising, to be honest. I'm also proud to say that I helped contribute to his avatar picture way back when. Though Gloves I think was the one who actually created it.

SuperJimtendo | 1,125 Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Maybe I should be offended since giving away artwork was my gimmick there for a couple of good years. Much to Bea's misery. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photobucket recently Deactivated my old account and is currently deleting everything they had archived. So anything from the na era is gone other than those originals. All the comic panels and kickle shit. Only the few pieces that went to past winners and otherwise still exist. I didn't save anything. Those are all legacy level artworks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackVega | 583 Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Hey, all of that business talk reminded me of something- does anyone remember that shitshow or where it was from? Let me explain- there was some sort of a shitshow where a guy came with broken NES or a few uncommon NES games and people were negotiating and arguing about the price and 1 dude raged with the line "hey you know what, all I can do is 10 million dollars.......or 10 dollars!!!"

By shitshow, you mean collectable or pawn show? I remember Storage Wars had a dude find an NES and mistook the model number (NES-001) for the serial number. Yeah, buddy, the very first NES ever produced ended up in the random storage locker you bought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This discussion is over Well the converasion has completely veered off into other directions, but I just want to add that I trust Bea and Guillavoie's judgement, so congrats on being the champ for 2023! With the all-round skill set you've got and your professed love of NES/Famicom, I'm surprised you haven't been putting up these crazy high scores for years. It would have been cool to see you giving your best against some of the all-time great tournament players from the NA era, that's for sure; you seem to be able to dissect these old games like no other...

I didn’t want to skip the tournament this year but looking back I have had zero time to play games so it was for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes it was a crappy TV show (does anybody still watch TV???) where some seriuz byznyzmyn were arguing about retro video game prices. Thanks for reminding me the name, it was storage wars. I found the clip in question but I misspoke a bit, it went "you know what I will let it go for 5000 dollars....... or 5 dollars!!"
