I rarely post on the forums, but after lurking through all the complaints and arguing, I feel like there needs to be some more lighthearted fare. That being said, I'm a big fan of Top Gear, and after having dropped with Garth in his Cicada a couple times, I now designate him the Mechwarrior Stig.

Now let's fill this thread with some love for Garth via "Some say.." Top Gear style quotes about him.


Some say he can mount two AC20's on his shoulders, and that he can throw a projectile faster than a gauss rifle fire one..all we know is, he's Garth. :angry:

Some say he pilots the Cicada only because the Grasshopper isn't available... and that his favorite pet is his shark, which has lasers on its head. All we know his, he's Garth!

Some say he can kill 4 lights in a match with only 1 small lazer and that the other 4 players give up after seeing that

Some say Aleksandr Kerensky based the Atlas off of Garths image....all we know is, the fear instilled by an Atlas is eerily similar to Garths.

Some say, that if he piloted anything but a Cicada it would tear a hole in the space time continuum, and that if game balance was up to him, he would purposefully break weapons just for laughs.

All we know is he's called The Erlam!

That doesn't sound very nice.
Stig : pejorative; someone from a poor background, with a poor dress sense

Why don't you just call Garth a hobo next time.
