Discussion Random Chat MegaThread

[workhorse]

Don't shoot me, but I think it's detrimental to the board. We had a discussion about 18 months ago which revolved all around what and how many competitions should go on at once. I think we decided on KOTW and AGOTW but imo there should never be more than 3 comps running on here at once. The more competitions there are, the less entries there are. You end up with guys like Craegus, Cory and Lmach, the top designers, who enter all of these and win all of them. I think the reason why the Teamworks comps are so successful is that there is a massive time frame.

The recent USFL comp for New York Knights had 2 entries. I'm not dissing Pie at all because I love the idea but maybe there are too many comps going on at once and we could just keep it to 2 or 3.

Completely agree, far too much clutter. I remember 12 or 18 months ago threads would stay on the main board even if they were inactive for a while. Now, 1 or 2 days and they get wiped away. I think when comps are run, or before they're about to be run, the idea needs to be approved by the board/mods/Doc just so we don't get too much clutter.

Also to go with that, when people start a new thread asking a question. There is a Question and Answers Thread for a reason. (Even though it's probably on page 2 or 3 (haven't checked) which also relates back to the clutter.)

Now I understand this board is very active and we often get bypassers who come on here to request designs and that's fine but I think we need to monitor the amount of unnecessary threads that are started. (also brings up the issue of bumping old threads)

Anyway /rant, hopefully we can get these things cleared up.

So did the Knicks.........

Did Lin play like shit again? Actually, I just looked it up, it was something like 8 Linovers in the last 2 games for only 28 points.

You saying I'm a bandwagoner?

Didn't you use to support the Magic and then strangely switched teams around the time Dwight asked for a trade?

Your just jealous James and/or Bosh didn't go to your embarassing team.

I am literally in Wagga. And no, I haven't had to relocate as I live on a hill about 3km from the river. That being said, I could actually see the river about a km away across the highway. Haven't been at school for two days as it is an evac centre.

Also my mate's house has about 1m of water through it.

So it's not exactly in the city centre? Anyway, hope everyone is okay

People need to do more research on this. The US has been trying to stop Kony since 08. He's been embargoed, he's on the Most Wanted list, there is a US contingent in Africa actively looking for him. And the group behind it (Invisible Children) have essentially given their ok to arms trafficking in Africa, backing armies in Sudan and Uganda with more then chequered pasts.

This sums it up for me. This campaign has the potential to do more harm then good.

He has done some fine tuning to limit the linovers, and his scoring has dropped of because of Melo and Stat.

Didn't you use to support the Magic and then strangely switched teams around the time Dwight asked for a trade?

Was Dwight asking for a trade in September '10? If so then yeah that's totally true, if not (which it's not) it was because I travelled to New York before Stoudemire and Anthony were there.

Your just jealous James and/or Bosh didn't go to your embarassing team.

Oh yeah I'm super depressed that three of the best players and playing in one side and still can't win a title

And...

I must say that was one of the sickest alley-oops in that past 10 years but hey, anyone could do that against the bucks

Doesn't look like it's helping that much...

Likely story...

Our time will come, but while we're contending for championships the Knicks will be just making up the numbers in the playoffs at best.

 

[The Half Back]

Well he's not getting 9 turnovers a game

Likely story...

And you've been following he Heat since you were born

I don't want to copy your exact words but 'our time will come'

 

[E92_]

How long is that going to last? At the moments he's 3/11 with 6pts, looks like you can't have good points and low turnovers with Lin.

And you've been following he Heat since you were born

Yep, how'd you know?

I don't want to copy your exact words but 'our time will come'

I don't think the Knicks are going anywhere with the turnover machine on the team.

show me wade's stats from his first season

Yep, how'd you know?

You look the type

I don't think the Knicks are going anywhere with the turnover machine on the team.

Well if you opened your other eye, you would see a very bright future for the knicks

 

[E92_]

Lin is in his second season.

Just opened it and the future looks bleak.

That's what happens when you have your eye closed for so long. It's a fuzzy blur for you but for everyone else it's a shining light

 

[E92_]

On July 21, 2010, Lin signed a two-year deal with his hometown Warriors, his favorite team growing up. Lin's deal was partially guaranteed for 2010–11, and the Warriors held a team option for the second season. The deal included a first-year salary of close to $500,000 with more than half of it guaranteed.

Lin scored 26 points but had nine turnovers. His 45 turnovers in his first seven career starts were the most since individual turnovers began being tracked in 1977–78.

That's what happens when you have your eye closed for so long. It's a fuzzy blur for you but for everyone else it's a shining light

18-21... Doesn't look to bright to me.
