We game together most weekends, and he's a VERY competitive dude IRL. He's one of the best pure 8-bit gamers I know...of course, get him outside of his two-button world and he's almost completely lost Basically, I'm not basing my statements off of his scores posted, I'm basing it on firsthand experience playing with and against him in a variety of games, as well as watching him. Also, don't use Bomberman in the contests if he's playing. Trust me on this. right on. im just a shit talker. nothing to see here i genuinly like everyone here. even if i do disagree sometimes or say really stupid things. at the end of the day its cliche but like a family here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I wasn't attacking you there. I just didn't want someone down the road to see that and actually think I'm just jerking his ego. He's legitimately that good. Then again, he still refuses to try a serious run at The Punisher, so who knows for sure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And frankly, I think everyone has at least one game they'll dominate the competition at any day of the week. Mine would be The Punisher, as the past Weekly Contest I participated in shows...it's to the point that it's specifically left out when @Dr. Morbis challenges me to "any game in the collection" Thanks for the kind words. I know for a fact I'm not in the same category as @rdrunneror @BeaIankthough. I remember trying to keep up with both of them at different points in the past and just couldn't compare. I get just good enough at a game to beat it. Those two find ways to bend and manipulate game to their will in a way I havnt ever really had the patience to learn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is, you actually get good enough to beat games, regardless of difficulty or genre. That's no easy feat. I'm sure you could approach their level if you put the effort into it, but that isn't your goal. Entirely respectable. But to have the skill to master so many different types of games at a level high enough to complete them, that's top tier shit imo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just post your score I ain't stupid, and you don't need guerrilla tactics here in the regular season. If you want the win, it's yours. I won't be updating my score, and it's very beatable. If this were the tournament I'd be playing over and over every evening until Sunday night, but I'm not gonna sink that kind of time into gaining a couple extra points in the regular season (that it looks like is completely pointless if they let fifteen people into the tourney - you only need to participate in like 20% of the season if that's the case). So anyway @docile tapeworm, just drop those pantaloons and I'll get out my measuring tape and see what you're worth. Nothing to fear, little man! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good score you've put up there, but you're still behind Sumez by a couple hundred thousand points. An extremely handsome gamer once told me: "If you're not first, you're last." Are you going to do anything to get yourself out of last place??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
