This weather stinks. Stupid earthquake that disrupted weather patterns. I don’t remember how the sunlight feels or what a clear sky looks like anymore :P Nothing but rain, snow, and ice every day.

Clan Stars

This week I’d like to highlight someone who hasn’t really gotten much spotlight. He’s been around off and on recently but he’s always been a great asset to our clan. For the span of his time here he has helped out in some of the biggest competitions and the smallest. He’s also helped with things outside of competitions and has just been there for a nice conversation. The person I’m talking about is Dranik. Thanks Dranik for being the person that you are.

Clan Gossip

Ok there’s been some heated complaints about this crossword puzzle. I’ve not heard much besides a few little grumbles about the hard clues so I’m glad to know everyone doesn’t have too much of a problem with it. Speaking of the crossword puzzle, the team is about half way done with it. It’s not too late to join us! Give me a yell if you’d like to help out.

Funny Junk

This one comes from Frosty. I got another one this week so I’m happy again. :)

Game: Jedi Outcast

This is a tale from my early years as a DBer, so please don't laugh to hard. One day I was in the mood for some JO, so I entered #tarentum and asked around. Nobody wanted to play so I looked for a public server. After 20 minutes of search for a good server, with people in it, I found a German one. It had 2 people on it, so I decided to give it a try. I entered the game and found two German guys. I saluted them but none of them replied. I thought for myself that these guys were too busy killing each other, 'cause when I looked at the scores one had 113 and the other one 112. I looked for them and I found them somewhere near the platform, they both had Kyle skins.

I challenged the one that was in front and then the other one, but one of them replied. And then suddenly while I was trying to challenge them again, one of them, turned around and gave me a force grip and the other one electrocuted me. I was mad, these guys were assholes, I started calling them cowards, chickens etc. Then I thought (again :): these guys are either stupid or do not speak english. I started killing them one by one. It was fairly easily, since they were not using combos.

Then I messaged them: Wanna make a bet: that I will be the first on this server? I started killing them, and after almost 3 hours I had like 250 and them near 200. I asked myself: Why don't these guys reply to a challenge or a message, or why do they keep fighting each other...then it

HIT me: THEY WERE TWO FREKKIN BOTS!

Am I dumb or what? (don't ask it's a rhetorical question)
