My ill-fated expedition to find the internet

:tails cracking up intensifies:

I'm sorry you don't find life as amusing as I do.

Unfortunately, no videos this week. I was testing hitbox last night for my PC games, when I switched back to my capture card I didn't set the audio up correctly so all you hear is me talking. :(

I'll try to fix it next time, but acer recorded some of it on his hitbox channel (http://www.hitbox.tv/acerbandit).

Also, I'll be unable to make it the last two Saturdays of September due to beach travel.


Edit: Okay, now I'm really not sure what happened. I just did a test recording without changing any settings and it picked up both my mic and the game sound just fine. Maybe Skype messed up something?

I'm going to miss the next couple of weeks, on account of being out of the state and then out of the country!

Make sure to run the Music Park Cup without me.

Holy shit why did none of you fuckers tell me that Toad IS THE BEST. He sounds hilarious, and is always just so fucking psyched to even be racing. What sealed the deal was when I saw his boost pad trick where he plays peek-a-aboo, I lost my goddamn mind the first time I saw it in slo-mo. It still randomly cracks me up 2 days later, still trying to find a gif of it or something. His speed is obviously kind of shit, so I go for maximum hilarity and use the airship with him which has terrible speed but has insane acceleration and handling. I actually seem to do alright with it, playing online with randoms I usually get top 2 or 3 with it. I don't expect to be pulling out 1st place finishes with it, but it's so funny to me I don't even care.

All that aside, is anyone going to be on this weekend? I'm going to be going in hard on Destiny, but I can make time for this on Saturday if folks are actually going to be around. Me and Philia are playing this on almost a daily basis and getting better. The salt that comes from both of us playing it when it's not with you guys is hilarious. Maximum Divorce Game.

Dude Toad has always owned. His IIIII'M THE BEST from Mario Kart 64 (and everything else about Toad in MK64) is still one of the greatest things to come out of Mario Kart.

I know I'll be around this weekend for sure.

There's not a road in Destiny, so I'll be in MK.

Okay, I'll make a point of getting on. I'll set an alarm, you may need to remind me as well though Tails since I'm 100% sure I'm going to be in a Destiny group at that point. I'm pretty sure Philia will be home in time for it as well.

Can you beat the diarrhea twins now?

That's sort of the kindergarten "I can press the accelerator button" test.

It's kind of a low bar.

Hey now. Mo0 and Nutty are the low bar. I'm more like low-mid bar.

You have to press the accelerator button and take turns without hitting the wall to beat me.

Not sure, since the weekend is prime co-op time for Destiny I might make this week and exception and go do that. That said if Skills and Mo0 want to spend an hour or so doing MK I'm perfectly fine with that too. So yeah, unsure right now what I'll be doing.

If you play Destiny, I'm just going to narrate your adventures and annoy Mo0 to no end.

And? You appear to have grossly over-estimated the extent to which Mo0's annoyance levels have any bearing on my decision making process.

Or anyone's decision-making process.

*creaks chair slowly*

I'm getting better at drifting. I still hit the wall on occasion when I forget to drift earlier (kart). Its more or less trying to remember the bends in the track. There's a couple of bends that I STILL fail without question no matter what I do. I just need to look up on how to bypass those or make the turns better.

Literally the only thing stopping me from 3-starring everything is Music Park on 150cc, the computer has outright fucked me in ways that were impossible to get out of on the last lap 4 times in a row now. The irony does not escape me.

Just play Bowser on a tiny bike. It's impossible to lose 150/Mirror. Trust me, I did it. It's somehow more bullshit than the AI's bullshit.

STOP GIVING AWAY MY SECRETS TAILS

You can also tap the brake in the middle of a drift to avoid taking it too wide.

Don't let off the gas though, that'll kill the sparks. brakes plus gas though will get the job done.

We'll be on but just maybe 5-10 minutes late.

Well the room's up since I'm not sure if Omagnus and the others plan on breaking. Just a matter of waiting to see who shows today.

ps don't be a chump

Oh boo, you guys are full? How did we go from no one being on because of Destiny to being full :(. We're out then, I bailed on people I was playing Destiny with to get on, our fault for being late.

Yeah, I couldn't get a hold of anyone and thus missed it too; I'm glad there's a large enough crew to maintain interest after this long.

Says the guy who messaged me on Skype at 5:23, well after we had gotten started. Also it's not like I have a cell phone that's on my person 24/7 because of my job or anything.
