Clever. I like that.
I'm not fond of the wedge though. would be nice if it was something other than a sheet that looked more wedge-like.
Also, some teeth on the ends of those DSL bar-guards on the side of the wheels would spiffy it up a little. (I think.)

I was about 40 stages away. :P I choose the rock crawler and, from what I hear, it didn't really make a difference. Glad I got a support truck and plane. Didn't really care for the Raptor.

I am becoming more and more an F1 fan. I gotta say, the drivers in that series are awesome. I seriously hope they all stick around and not move to NASCAR. As much as I love NASCAR as well, I hope both series' grow and flourish. Open wheel really needs a strong following over here in the States. Glad the Texas race went well!

Pillbugs are so cute! <3
I like it. I'm not fond of the irons though... but I can't think of a better alternative.

I will be making a trip to the next town over soon to see if they have them at the Family Dollar there. I think it would make an awesome gift for my older brother. I already have a Genesis, so I don't really need one.
Edit: Did you see in that article at the bottom of the page, there are links to reviews of other systems similar to this? The most interesting one is the handheld Genesis. It's made by the same company.
Nope. I didn't read past the initial article. Thanks for the heads up! I will have to check that out.

Heh, went in to get my second one today. Lady looked at me like I was crazy.
They still had 4 left on the shelf. I will be curios to see if anyone else in the area picks up on how awesome this system is. XD

So, I was at a Family Dollar store shopping for cat food the other day and spotted an interesting box on their electronics shelf behind the counter. It had a SEGA logo and pictures of Sonic all over it. Curious, I checked it out and found that Family Dollar is selling SEGA authorized mini consoles that come pre-loaded with a ton of the classic games.  Sonic 1, 2, Sonic Spinball, Ecco, Golden Axe, Shinobi, etc etc. Not only does the console have two wireless controllers (RF though) it also has controller ports for classic controllers if you have them. It also has a cartridge slot for the old games as well! All for a measly $40. Here is an article about the console. http://videogamecritic.net/vgc_genclassic.htmI bought one as a gift for a friend this holiday. Thinking about picking one up for myself because I need a Sonic fix and I've also wanted to play Shadowrun again (doesn't come with it though... will have to get that game on eBay.) There isn't a lot of info about the console online because I don't think most people know it exists and is sold at Family Dollar. Just giving you gamers a heads up! Edit: Couldn't resist... ordered Shadowrun via eBay... Gonna pick this console up today and save it for x-mas. :3

The other night I dreamed that Seth Green was chasing me through a big school. He was threatening to kick the crap out of me. I out ran him in a stairwell and found myself in the gymnasium. There was a podium there and I had to make a big speech about peace. As I continued to give my speech more and more people entered the gym to listen. I finished, the crowd went wild and gave me a standing ovation. Two horses galloped in from either side of the gym and met in the center to hug.
It was weird.
I am beginning to think all the elements symbolize this forum.

When you attempt to add a facebook link to your profile it asks for the entire URL. Well the box cannot handle the entire URL.
As a result, it looks like everyones facebook link under their name is broken.

I was doing very well on the desert thing but then I couldn't log in for 10 days.
The first few days of the safari go well. But, after a while, the car slows down pretty bad in the sand... and progress is horrendously slow. I don't think I will make it to the final stage in time. No biggie though, i don't really care for the Ford Raptor. I just want to unlock more treasure chests. :D

I know you can't make a transparent side on that. But an image of the side of the wheel with a little shading could give a nice impression of transparency. Just sayin'

I was at a party, and, if I can borrow a phrase from System32, the "****ing incompetent bastards" left it on the drinks table in a plastic bottle that looked just like one of those warehouse-club bottles. It was a completely clear liquid. I spat it out as soon as I tasted it, but I must have swallowed some becuase my saliva has a oliy film.
Hope it was expensive, they could have kiled me.
Well... good to see I wasn't the only party killer recently. For the family thanksgiving gathering a couple days ago, I was slicing the french bread and nicked off the tip of my index finger with the breadknife. XP I didn't want to ruin anyone's appetite, so I quickly threw the tip away while nobody was looking and wrapped my finger in a napkin for the evening. Apparently Naryar's favor from the gods got me back for implying Aerodactly is gay.

Black Friday went like this for me:
Went to work at 12:01 a.m.
Worked until 7:30 a.m.
Bought 4 items from my own store (no line no wait wheee)
3 of them were items that a friend asked me to pick up for her.
Went home... slept from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
consumed some string cheese and an energy drink.
Went out to donate some items to a local shop that gives away stuff to poor families who can't afford gifts. (couple NASCAR cars / a CD Rack / some other stuffs)
Shopped locally and bought a couple unique crafted items.
got home at 4:00... poured a nice glass of porter.
T'is a good day so far.
:D
How is everyone else doing?

Be sure to test it on the anticipated arena floor. I find that when setting up wedges like that it will vary in effectiveness depending on how much they cut into the floor itself. Sometimes the metal hinge wedges will dip into the floor and make the upper (skirt hinge?) wedges graze the floor instead. Making the setup useless.
In summary, be sure to test it on the floor just to be sure.

Haha! That's priceless. I suppose I earned that well deserved it.

Hmm... Maybe I should enter a really incredibly gay flyer that stays out of the tabletop while bots reach him by OOTa
Aerodactyl?
How dare you call aerodactyl gay ! Taste my iron fist, fiend !
Besides, no custom components. I'll just have to Stagfish my way out of reach.
I guess I am just butthurt. I really wanted Metagross to win. :D I can't wait to start thinking about this tournament. Building will have to come later. But, I have some time to think. :P

EST here.
Forza 4 is 2nd on my x-mas list. Do you guys screw around with headsets? Because my hearing is terrible so I don't bother.
