now that i got your attention...

IM LEAVING MARP

now lemme make a few things clear: first this does not ENTIRELY have to do with tonight on irc, although it does play a good part. i'll get to that later but first let me tell a bigger reason i'm leaving: i just dont have much time for mame and competition. here's a list of what you can blame:

1) subspace/continuum. once you get into it believe me it's TOO addictive.

2) this whole visual pinball/pinmame explosion. potentially more addicting than subspace. even more so than crack (NO I HAVE NOT DONE IT AND NEVER WILL AND I URGE YOU NOT TO FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR GAMING ABILITY)

3) quake 3. nuff said. i frequently attend local lan parties.

now on to the #marp channel. yea yea yea i got banned from it but it also made me realize something: whatever happened to trivia? i remember a while ago every saturday i'd go to #marp and have a several hour blast triviaing. this even continued when i started typing like a perverted monkey jackass infused with horse shit.

now it seems like trivia has become a rarity. i'd say only 1 out of 3 weeks had a trivia game and it usually didn't get finished. now i'll be honest: it is getting a bit boring in there. the only 2 people i've ever been able to really talk with are bbh and jdllama, and jd's gone till july...

now onto this "I TALK LIKE A PERVERTED MONKEY JACKASS INFUSED WITH HORSE SHIT" thing. i'll tell you the exact roots of all this: HISA CHAN. his "POOR ENGLISH" seemed to cause a spark in me. it begun with horrible, nonsensical grammar structure (still spelling words right) then that gave me a feeling of stupid-power that evolved into the following timeline:

earliest days: RAINBOW ISLANDS HOW FORCE A DIAMOND; BOBBLE BUBBLE HOW MAKE ALL BUBBLE TO FRUIT

the middle ages: I DO CPS2 ALGORITHTHTMTMMM

now (hardly makes sense but more structured): i oof teh bmob bat it si bwold pu

well anyway hisa chan seemed to originate all that, and in the early and middle ages i had never even heard of jeffk (www.somethingawful.com/jeffk) or taoc teh wodner dog (www.geistmag.com/taco).

whew. so what will become of me? well i obviously wont be posting anything anymore. i won't entirely wean myself from marp, i'll still visit the page but only as a world scoreboard of mame and to download a couple of recordings. i'll also look at the message board for any game tips that may come.

and i'm not gonna leave any of u behind (whether or not you gave a shit about me and how you gave a shit about me if you did) so...

email: pimpdavid15@yahoo.com icq: 102762236

i play subspace a lot: www.subspace.net. look for me in SSCX extreme games i play under the nick "davedude1414". quake 3: i am pimpdavid. and i'm not gonna leave mame the emulator - i'll still fire it up occassionally, and get some roms for it (point blank's coming out...w00t!!)

so n.e. ways feel free to drop me a msg on email or icq and good luck to everyone.

Hmm..bizarre-ish . OK , i don`t know the #marp details /politics..etc.

Your leaving MARP. Wow , big deal ? And how , has your typing /spelling improved a million percent ?

I`ll ask Mulder later...

You complain about Trivia on Saturdays...? God love ye...

David , if the question isn`t from you ( and from some hacker-guy )...I forgive you ).

Yours,mystified...

Since I was mentioned, I'll respond...

A lot of times I stood up for you, David. Certain people in #marp always wanted to ban you for your lamer-speak. For a while I thought it was amusing... I was laughing out loud over the whole "RAINBOW ISLANDS HOW FORCE A DIAMOND" thing. But your typing got deliberately worse and more "forced", not to mention almost completely unreadable. It's like you were trying too hard to be Jeff K. By that point, all the humor was gone, and I could then understand the bans, since you wouldn't knock it off.

Yes, trivia doesn't happen on #marp too often any more. Why? Could be a number of reasons... perhaps we're running out of questions. That's my excuse for not having much interest in the trivia these days, I have trouble thinking up questions that people in the channel would actually get (seeing how there's only a couple who might know what I'm talking about if I bust out a DDR question)

If anything, I'll surely miss the shooter conversations, since nobody else on #marp seems to play games like Blazing Star. (get it more!) Not too many others on there that really appreciate the Psikyo shooters too. Oh well, have fun with everything else.
