Oh it was a five gig data usage max... We were under the impression that it was just five gigs of DLing... I wish that dude at Best Buy had been clearing on the specifics.

Damn... it feels good to write again. New post's are up... there's more to come if I feel up to it later. Hope you folks enjoy them. Cheers!

There's no way to cancel your contract?
Reading up now, should be good ^^

EDIT: Uhoh, The Steiner Coliseum is a Level One circuit. Going from MW4, I didn't know there was any kind of restrictions on entrance, if we don't have access, I'll need to edit Dan's post.
Or do they maybe do some sort of newby night once a month? Something similar?
EDIT: I get bonus XP for playing this out right? These things take forever to build. Having to use the Wasp over the Stinger, but can't place some of the crits right...Irritating.

...For the life of me, wherever I get lost, I find myself back here. For that I know I am lucky. Its just that - YOU GUYS MAKE AWESOME POSTS! DAMZ YOUZ!

Sry for being quiet of late. My new job since mid dec has me working to the bone. Wake up, eat breakfast, go to work, work, eat lunch, work, go home, eat dinner, sleep, repeat. Expected retirement age for a singaporean is 67. No joke. Probably be raised to 70 by the time its my turn to be toothless and senile (and working!) National pastime for singaporeans - playing the lottery. No joke. Working hard to live month to month like everyone else in the world. The song of tiny Singapore is true - "The Country is rich, The People are poor." Go figure.

Um, the highlight for the first two months of the year for me has been buying a ticket to the cinema to watch on my own, Cloud Atlas in Jan and Lincoln in feb (only last weekend in fact) And wow. Time off well spent.

In Cloud Atlas, ooh how non linear the story was, jumping from characters to characters across time, with the underpinning theme that everything and everyone are connected. Its so rare and refreshing to have a movie that tries to bring a philosophical message. ..."Our lives are not our own.... we are bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future." Ah so. Walked home afterwards that night, after the movie. Its an hour walk or so from the cinema to my home, and just well let my thoughts wander to follow the threads that tied everything together. Wouldnt it be nice if Humanity could let go of this entrenched mantra of fear and conflict to progress to a collective mandate of universal harmony? But such will ask of individual self-enlightenment in everyone of us for this to take place. And you have to be a Buddha or a saint to achieve that in this day and age. Guess we have nothing to look forward to but the next war I guess. "Oh look, the US is pivoting towards Asia. Yipee." (tongue in cheek, tongue in cheek) Actually tiny little Singapore has been a solid ally of the US and the West in general. Heaven help us. (tongue in cheek)

Okay, okay, where was I… then I watched the movie Lincoln and wow. Have always been a fan of Daniel Day Lewis (The Age of Innocence, Gangs of New York, There will be Blood) and the actor does not disappoint here too. And I just appreciate old Spielberg’s old school way of movie story telling - from the transitions between scenes, to the spaces between characters to the pauses between dialogues. Ah so. And I havent said anything about the script! A movie is only as solid as its script. Case in point – Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Yea baby! I am as much a fan of american foreign policy as the next person (tongue in cheek. Okay that was the last one.) But one cannot help but admire the examples of some past leaders of america, like the first president George Washington who, could have so easily made himself king of a new kingdom in a new world and the people would love him for it. Instead the first president of America humbly decline, retired to the countryside, and allowed democracy to grow. What wisdom. What wisdom. Then you had Abraham Lincoln another American leader who had the courage when it was so easy to remain silent, to stand up and say, Slavery is wrong. Wow. I guess it can be said that the virtues of wisdom and humanity when endeavoured to, becomes laurels of acclaim to be placed on the names whose deeds of life becomes example to all others who come after. Like Gandhi or Saladin.

Gah, I’m rambling. Yup the highlights of my life this two months of this new year is watching two movies, and work. Ha. At work I am a zombie, a mimic of a walker but maybe when I am posting here with you guys, I can be myself for a bit. I beg your patience.

Okay okay lets hear some music.

For the life of me I have joe cocker in my head since mid dec. Sometimes I sing this out loud out of the blue. People may think I’m getting crazy but no, I am trying to keep myself sane.



Guess all we can do is sing, cause the world is not getting any better.



Ps- Great posts guys. Thank you. Just love reading LnD RP.

Ps4 –(soon to be available this year!) – Hopefully I have something scribbled up and posted by this Sunday. Hopefully. Really missed posting. Have a scene in my head of Christina with a midget….oh my!

There is an entrance fee, which the stable would cover. That much I know.

[RogueSpear]

Always good to hear from you Azman!
You really should join us on Skype

Personally, I live in hope of a zombie apocalypse or a plague of some sort. Weed out the chaff, the stupid people and warmongers.
'Course, odds are, they'd be the ones to survive.

[guardian wolf]

Good to see you again Az. May your wits stay sharp, and your strength unfailing. And Rogue, I'd survive the zombie apocalypse, cause I'd go live north, where they'll freeze. H3ll in Kansas, our winters are extremely cold, and our summers extremely hot. Any wonder we survive out here.

[Thom Frankfurt]

@ Spear, stable would cover the cost, like GW said. Also since it's a tourney a large venue would most likely be the place to be. Our plan sucks, but we'll manage, I just won't be playing any xbox live while watching kung fu movies on Netflix for awhile... @ Az it's always good to hear from ya. For despite what a crumby mood I may be in, you always makes me laugh.

Wasn't Dylan supposed to be having a fight with some Panther pilot on the 21st? *scratches head* I believe you had a post where you wrote something about having a flamer installed on your Flea a.k.a. Super-Locust.

[RogueSpear]

I still need confirmation on whether or not I'm allowed to have Jack fight in the Coliseum or if I should move the fight elsewhere.

Go ahead and use it, it just makes sense to have a tourney in a class one arena. If you're feeling up to it, work in Dan/Jack thinking about DeMarkus' advice (or lack of it) and if you're feeling especially creative work in a little Erin/Randolph wishing you luck or in Erin's case telling you not to make a fool of yourself. After my last posting with Erin (and Bertie's lack of win) she's feeling the pressure to produce results, and she's not going to be as nice of a person as she's previously been. Now get to posting!

[RogueSpear]

Sounds good Thom, I'll do that. Can you PM me a post with DeMarkus' reaction to the Raven 1X-DC? Basically Dan'll ask him about that and take whatever he says under advisement ("I have no idea"/"It does this, here's how to counter").

[Thom Frankfurt]

Will do!

I could have sworn it was on the 22nd, or was that a hint?

I'm not positive on what day it was, so I made my post sorta vague. I could try to hunt down when it's supposed to be, but I'm lazy. But take it as a hint, you could always have a post where Dylan is overseeing the installation of the flamer. You'd have atleast something to write about, despite how little it may be.

[guardian wolf]

Ahah.... *begins psychotic mumblings, then notices everyone in the room, and quickly exits stage right*

[kevin roshak]

ok better late than never. starting a post now

[Thom Frankfurt]

Short and sweet Kevin. Go warriors?
