Here's my first official go at it... I took this picture to make sure I got participation. I played until game over, got jumpy about the timer (I guess I was thinking pause like in DD2), and goodbye score! hahaha. At least I had a good backup plan!

498,500
358,700
296,950
144,100
126,450
74,200

Sure, I'm on. Seems like the only way to make a race for 8th place or higher interesting. And I'll give up my head start right away with Bayou Billy since there is no way I'll have more than an hour or two to play it.

In fact, let's make it more interesting. Winner gets to choose the other person's avatar for a designated amount of time at the end (within ToS).

Deal?
oh ya your on sandafloor aka the original new guy. 

points dont matter. real deal who places higher. there are 5 rite? so no need for a tie breaker. 

looks like the grinder beat you in two out of three worthy beat um up games last year! no one cares about roller games! no one cares about....what was the other one? 

just know you will have a sweet tapewom avatar when kobra kai wipes the floor with you AND miyagi! then ill be getting special warm hands! wwwwoooo! ...;

So losing by 1 position is the same as losing by 14 positions? Good enough for me.

There are two here challenging each other and I simply can't understand the reasoning behind it!
You men are too complicated and weird. And also have cooties.

It's what my opponents in fantasy football regularly encounter;  a little side action

There is no drama like last year where we were jockeying for 2nd place and the different genre awards.  So we had to create our own intrigue.

You self-identity as a Terminator.  Your opponents are other machines, that must be analyzed, fought, interrogated, and ultimately defeated.  This is how man sees other man.

Yes, but I do that to crush my limits, see them driven before me and to hear the lamentation of their women.
Men motives to challenge each other are too alien for me to understand.

Perhaps you should re-read and ponder your own quote, and its origin  

Though really the only lamentation Mrs. Landers will have, win or lose, is me talking to her about this in the first place  

Me - ...and there's this one guy from Florida.  Ooooooh he makes me so mad!  And then there's this guy Tom, he's the best in the world--
Her - So none of these guys have girlfriends, right?
Me - Wha, no!  He has a daughter.  Actually they all have daughters now that I think about it...
Her -  How do you know that?  You've never even met
Me - We talk... on the internet
Her - Weird
Me - Also, there's this Canadian stoner and this Brazilian cyborg woman--
Her - I don't want to know

Yep. I side bet Yukfou a $30-$50 game in our 3rd place matchup in the NA fantasy football cash league.

I lost and he got a sealed copy of Shovel Knight for the 3DS.

I've had that same basic conversation a bunch of times, just replace the word "Her" with "Hooters girl". How else did you think I got that "Bimmy isn't even a real name!" sign?

I just read this wonderful article about a young man who crafts hat's for toads! I will quote my favorite part of the story.

"The toad would sit on my front porch every night during the summer," Newsome explained. "He lives under the daisies in my flower bed and he would come to the porch to eat bugs."

Since the toad became a regular visitor, Newsome dubbed him Mr. Toad (although he isn't completely sure that the toad is male). And although Mr. Toad may not have been ready, he was about to become the center of a child's delight.



 


 



"A friend of mine has a little boy that lost his pet toad," Newsome said. "He was crying about his toad and he remembered Mr. Toad. He asked if Mr. Toad was still coming to visit me every night, so to make him feel better I sent him a photo to show that Mr. Toad was alive and well."



Newsome then decided to take it to the next level.



"I started making the hats to cheer him up because all kids would laugh at a toad with a hat."

That's just what he did and kids weren't the only ones to laugh.


Absolutely breathtaking material here! Could you imagine a Toad in a hat??!?!?
