Mon, 16 Jul 2012 02:02:27 -0700 Effective methods of euthanasia for spiders. http://www.gamespot.com/users/Overlord93/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25989737 I hate spiders so much.

I caught a big one in a box and now I'm trying to figure how to kill it, deoderant doesn't seem to work, although it is now probably the freshest smelling spider I've ever known.

I also tried burning out the oxygen in the box with a candle, but with such a slow metabolism, I think it may take some time. Any ideas?

I would not make a very good Australian.

Update: Airborne insecticides also seem ineffective

Update 2: After prolonged exposure to insecticide, the spider appears to be on his death bed, he's belly up and twitching. I would have rather he just suffocated, but what must be done must be done.

Update 3: R.I.P. Steve the spider, I gave him an appropriate funeral. Out the window. It's what he would have wanted.

Took a long time, couldn't have made it without all the great people in the community here. So thanks you!

Union has reached 100 members as well now, so that's cool too.

Thanks guys.

Sun, 16 Oct 2011 01:40:59 -0700 Level 100 and ponies http://www.gamespot.com/users/Overlord93/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25955638 So, after a relatively long time of playing nothing but gears 3 (hence why I haven't been around much recently)

I finally got to rank 100,

I'm feeling rather chuffed, there's not many rank 100s out there, and so will take it upon myself to prove it to you

Didn't take too long, luckily I got most of it done when the exp. gained was around 30% more than it is now, the hardest bit was putting up with all the damn sawn-off shotguns.

So anyway, now that's all done, I should be able to post more, especially at the union, which I have been neglecting

Sorry lol.

However..........................I may not be around for about a week or so (starting now) since I may be away from my computer. This is especially annopying since I have not yet seen the new episode of MLP:FiM, and I probably wont get to until some time next week. I will try to blag another computer and post, but nothing can be guaranteed.

tl;dr: Gears 3, and I may not be around for about a week

Anyway, have fun everypony, I'll see you round.

which is great news. I am still sifting through stuff from E3, BF3 looks ok, and MW3...well, I doubt I'll buy it.

And I thought I had a really important exam on the 14th, but then I checked my timetable again, and I realised it's just general studies, and my first proper exam isn't until the 21st

happy days :3

it looks pretty good on the playercard and on guns, although not so good up close :3

it was quite hard getting the "G" right. I'm sure someone else has done this but Its certainly one of my favourite emblems so far vvv Pics vvv

Wed, 12 Jan 2011 13:43:40 -0800 I slipped on a banana skin today http://www.gamespot.com/users/Overlord93/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25900452 I did, I was rather surprised...not that I slipped, but rather that banana skins are just as stereotypically slippery IRL as they are in Saturday morning cartoons. Luckily It wasn't a flat on face/back moment. I did the ole' spin the arms and stick one leg out technique.

I'm not sure If anyone noticed, but I hope not, I tried to make it as inconspicuous as possible without sacrificing my ability to regain balance.

All this has got me thinking, maybe those cartoons arn't all as unrealistic as I may have previously thought...

*goes out and drops anvil on head*

Thu, 30 Dec 2010 15:16:44 -0800 almost 7th and now hates CoD http://www.gamespot.com/users/Overlord93/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25896778 So, I have not had the best december ever, a pretty darn bad one tbh, I have lost course on video games and have got to the stage where I now have a bitter yearning for vengeance against the developers of the call of duty franchise. I have grown a new love for the now rather old game Borderlands, its a breath of fresh air for me, and everything about it has captivated me. This, obviously only amplifying my hate for CoD when I try to play it again.

I must write up a list of things which suck about that game, but it would take quite a while

Sat, 27 Nov 2010 11:40:27 -0800 3rd Prestige get and IRL shenanigans http://www.gamespot.com/users/Overlord93/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25887618 So I haven't been on GS much lately for a multitude of reasons. Numero uno would be that I am still slaving over prestige on black ops. Getting a little tired of it, but I try to spice things up with interesting weapons. i.e. FLAMETHROWER.

Hit prestige 3 this weekend. But the real bunch of bananas for the week would be my computer crashing (again )

Another hard drive failure, I lost almost everything from the last six months. (since I had a Drive image made just in case, after the last failure I vowed to keep it up to date )

So I backed that up to one of the secondary HDDs that I have inside my machine. I slapped it over my linux install which I don't really use that much.

I still lost about 100 gigs though. and various pieces of software. Including MS office which I had just installed. ( I hope to god Office registers the software intelligently via identifying CPU serial number. Otherwise I will have lost one of my office licences, which I had plans for >_>

All of this at a time when I am drowning in overdue coursework.

Gotta love the timing you Piece of s*** computer

I have little to no time on my hands. I'm aiming to get 1 prestige done a week though, aiming to hit level cap some time after christmas.

I have called him Bruce,

he is quite annoying.

Bruce died earlier this week of rolled up magazine related injuries

Thu, 14 Oct 2010 16:37:17 -0700 Upcoming games/Bored of Reach aaaaaargggg... http://www.gamespot.com/users/Overlord93/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25875772

Got to major grade 2, and played the hell outa firefight. ooh the boosting

But it just doesn't hold me. Forge world is great and all that, but there is nothing to make anymore, there is no real challenge to making anything and it all ends up as making castles on top of hills

As for matchmaking, well, I am not a fan of the DMR, much prefer the BR, the Magnum is OP. Along with the Energy sword + sprint.

Without skulls to hunt the single player is kinda dull, legendary wasn't absurdly hard and I had that done in < 10 hours.

I should be doing coursework but its kinda sucked the life outa me. I don't know what to play now, and I am really not enjoying call of duty: modern BS 2 (ohhh. the puns) So now I am looking to the future. And decided to check out some gameplay/previews.

First I took a quick peek at some black ops stuff. I'm reasonably exited. I like the no stopping power. the added recoil. and the more old school feel it seems to have. I am slightly woried however about

-the rc car being ridiculously OP and annoying

-Explosives (oh dear god theres so many)

-Balistic knife (fast travel time, very little drop)

-Lightwieght (why oh why oh why bring it back. this perk completely ruined search and destroy)

Its things like this, specifically the explosives i.e. "noobtubes" that worry me. If Treyarch/IW REALLY cared about there community they would have taken them out long ago. The opinion of them is almost universally negative...yet still they persist to exist IAS though They have no place in this COD. Unless of course (however ridiculously unlikely it is) They make the tubes balanced like in BF:BC(1/2)

But I doubt that

I am however, looking forward to using this bad boy in a COD game

All I need from black Ops is for it to occupy me for 1 whole year. maybe with a teensy gap inbetween for GR:future soldier.

But why a year? I hear you ask. Oh, well, because in a years time Gears of war 3 will be released, thats why.

If THIS isn't enough to make you want to sell your soul for this game then...you are the spawn of satan. Thats right. I said it.

The guys at EPIC are undoubtedly some of the best devs out there. Sadly, the game was delayed by MS (due to a want to spread out exclusives) But that means a beta (I WILL KILL TO BE IN THE BETA......WHO IS THE TARGET h , which means a smooth initial launch. (which is far more than I can predict for black Ops)

Everything about this game seems so refined, so perfect. with rpg elements etc. and some of the prettiest visuals I have seen on any console or PC game for that matter. Although graphics themselves are limited by the 360, the visual s-t-y-l-e is beautiful and incorperating more and more colour (not like the ol' greys of war)

I honestly can't even describe how awesome it is, you'll have to just see for yourself. All I need is for Black Ops and others to keep me busy FOR A WHOLE GODDAMN YEAR

one last thing:
