My Friends

30Mar 08

Ok I got tagged a few times and have decided it seems harmless enough (btw it seems this tagging started on youtube several months ago)

1. I play competitiive mixed grade badminton weekly, I usually play in B grade as #1 male. Its probably the best sport I've played.

2. I build my own PCs from parts I buy and order, using the internet as a guide I constructed my first PC which still runs to this day, my current PC is an upgrade of my second PC, I upgrade/buy when required.

3. I wear glasses, and not small ones, without them I can't see long or close everything is quite fuzzy. If you try squinting until everything gets blurry...thats what its like for me without them. People use them as magnifying glasses, that gives you an indication how strong they are. I've had them since I was 3-4.

4. I like helping people with PCs or PC games if I can, nothing worse than getting frustrated with PC gaming (Which can be at times) so I try to help around various forums.

5. The team I support is Collingwood (black and white), which resides in the Australia Football League, AFL was created in Australia as something to do when the Cricket season was over. This year marks 150th anniversary of the Melbourne Football Club. Hard to describe but its a bit like combining european football with basketball and heavy contact. I think its one of the best sports to watch because its free flowing, fast moving, high skill, high courage.

check out this promo for AFL

I tag (who I don't think have been and might want to): HardcoreKiller2 (soulja), Hot_Potato, Doom_HellKnight,Lilgunney612, zeus_gb

    It didon't start on Youtube, as the guy who started it said he got it from a forum. Besides, I've seen a few blogs from years ago with the tag thing on them

    I am short sighter. The lens in my glasses make everything smaller, which is the opposite of magnifying glasses. This also still puts my vision at quite a disadvantage.

    They aren't big as such, just have thick lenses. Most people don't see them as big unless they see up close from the side

    Yep, you help people alright!
    I agree that it's a good idea to build your own PC from parts ordered from online stores. It normally ends up a lot cheaper than just buying a gaming PC. I'm more of a rugby player myself, but I don't mind a bit of badminton every so often. A perfect combo, eh?
    Thanks for tagging. (Not quite sure what it is, but thanks )

    Oh, and good to see you're playing Kane's Wrath. My copy hasn't come yet.

  • nutcrackr

    Posted Apr 2, 2008 2:13 pm PT

    doom: sounds like a good combo

    tagging is just the 5 things you might not know about me trend that spread like a virus across gamespot, completely optional. I wasn't going to do it to start with.

    hopefully kane's wrath cames soon
