I missed the action! How did this all start?

Kick back and relax. Anything that does not have to do with footbag goes here!

I wish CIC would release some of the incriminating, violent video footage of Zeke. Seriously, Zeke - you have a wicked Scorpion Death Lock. If you ever decide to go pro, I think you would have a legitimate chance at the Intercontinental Belt. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that your not Heavyweight material, but your piledriver and suplex might need a bit more work before you can tackle the likes of the Hulkster, the Honkeytonk Man, or Hillbilly Jim.

Ah, but you have not seen my Heel Hook and Figure 4 ankle lock. Not to mention my new finishers; Deathlock STF ( aka Heat Zeker) and Flipside Rear Naked Choke (aka Zeke and Destroy)

I just need to work on my internet face character to go over with the fans. Otherwise I'm doomed to midcarders mediocrity.

Question is how are your technical skills? Can you hit an anklebreaker out of a suplex? Can you headbutt off the top turnbucle?

Sure, a corksrew variation no less :wink:
As for the ankle breaker, it all depends on the type of suplex.
My mat skills are sound but my acting really sucks :oops:






But anyways as for my first post on this thread, I did say that I *TRIED*

ah fuckit, I knew the hypocracy would catch up to me... :roll:

I personally have gotten thousands of dollars, multiple girlfriends, MULTIPLE friends and a completely new and better self from footbag. Eric, I met you through footbag. For you to diss footbag like this, I think that you have your own problems that you are unwilling to face and you have found yourself a scapegoat. You are mad at a sport? I don't say this out of malice. I have first hand experience, I dissed Kenny Shultz and the karmic effect was so strong that I lost much of my game. I actually had nothing against KS, I just had problems. Anyway, I bet you anything that you will play again when you are able to find yourself. It's a hard thing to do to face outselves. We see all of our faults and all of our mistakes. But then, we can learn from them. If we run and hide from our true selves, we will never become more.

Good luck Eric. May you find what you are seeking.

I wasn't able to read the whole original thread, but from the repost here i don't see why so many peeps are getting pissed at Wicked. When i read the post I felt his frustration, and I didn't take all his words at face value, cuz he was pissed, and wanted to vent.

Perhaps others couldn't relate to the frustration and/or took it at face value.

Skaters get all the girls. Before it was really popular skaters got alot of girls. There are alot of girl skaters, not as many as guys, but there are still alot.

I understand what you're saying about it shouldn't matter and quit bitchin though. Just has to point out that that we skaters do get the females. They're fine too!

If you have any game you wouldn't need a hobby to get girls.

I don't think anybody meant that they need a hobby to get girls, they were just bitchin that there aren't enough girls drawn to the sport. If you were talking about me, I don't try to use my hobbies to get girls, I use my hobbies to keep away from them. That's why I have hobbies.

Girls, just like everybody, are drawn to things that they like or look cool. Take a Lamborgini (sp?) for example. If I had one I would probably get like a hundred times as many girls. I don't need the car, but it helps. Do you see what I mean? It was probably a bad example, but hopefully you get what I'm saying. They like the image associated with the hobby.


This might be kinda off topic but it goes with the "game" thing. In more ways than one. :wink:

Me, my girlfriend Jamie, and our friend Erron went to the dork store yesterday to find try to win some tickets for this comedian that's coming this weekend and I saw the finest girl in the world (not really, but she was damn hot!). The weird part was she was with this wierd gamer. He was talkin about one of those games were you use the little figurines that you buy and paint yourself. The was at 100% dorkdrive talking about level 15 this that or the other and detroying the whozitcalleds while painting his little statues (pretty neat actually) and this fine ass girl was just sitting next to him kinda rubbing his back the whole time. She didn't seem to be into the gaming or the gaming talk, but she was with him at the dork store looking as good as ever. How did he get this beautiful woman? He was completly dorked out, all that was missing was his stormtrooper costume. He must be one smooth talker.

I would disagree with your statement whole heartdly Omni. Guys try to pass it off when ugly dudes are with hot girls as thinking they guy is getting played. Truth is, some guys are just naturally good with women. I've found that it is the guys who act like they don't give a shit about women, and poke fun of them in a cocky sort of way get most of the girls. It's the guys who act like pussies and approach girls with defeatist body language and voice tones (Because they are scared shitless) that don't get any women. These guys approach women and shower them with trite compliments (You have pretty eyes ect ect bullshit), but most of the time if the girl is hot, she's heard all these compliments 100 times, and probably already knows she is hot. Thus when you come up to her and insult her in a funny way, she is taken off her guard and you have all the momentum.

I've seen kind of nerdy guys, guys who dress flamboyantly goofy, guys who aren't the most attractive of the lot, guys who are amazing with women. That's the best thing about being a guy in contrast to being a girl, guys put a lot of emphasis on how a girl looks when choosing a partner, but girls do not (Atleast not to the same extent guys do).

Rant over.

i wasn't being 100% serious. Some girls only go for guys with money regardless of their hobbies or physical appearance. The guy might have had a great personality and is fun to be with, while playing these 'nerd' games. I know a few guys like that.

Anyways, to add to the topic: i don't really see how there can be discussion on this. People do things for reasons that suit them. When that reason isn't there, they stop doing 'whatever' because the benfits don't outweigh the setbacks. There's no discussion about it. It's truth.

What if Role players are more in touch with their emotions and can communicate with a higher level of detail and attention than non gamers ?

Maybe part of these skills made him more able to relate to the woman.

She probably met him through a mutual friend.

That would make sense. The play RPGs with little figurines and probably have to be very descriptive about what "moves" they're doing and I'm almost positive they have to pay more attention. I know where I'm chillin from now on........The Dork Store!!!!! :roll: I'm sure they can teach me to be smooth with the ladies.

You guys are thinking like dorks. I doubt seriously that gaming has anything at all to do with his ability to communicate with women. In fact, I'd bet that you guys are tottally over looking the obvious.
