EricW Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 It is time to honor the dishonorable, the cheaters, the gamblers, the disreputable abusers of intellect, i.e. - THE GAMERS. How dare they use subterfuge to unjustly turn the tide to their favor? How can we, the humble proletarians, be expected to compete if these scoundrels continue to defeat us through cunning and chicanery? Support for Gamers is deeply rooted in our cultural lore. To defeat the Gamer, we first must end the world's reverence for those whose only true achievement is ill-gotten gain through petty trickery. It is time for these no-talent fakirs of old to take their proper place in history. Let their legends live on in infamy! Damn them! Damn them all!! I hereby nominate the following to the Gamer Hall of Shame: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Moog the Homo Sapien - For unchivalrously shooting Og the Neanderthal with a bow and arrow before Og could club him and steal his Mastadon stew. Stinkin' Gamer... Archimedes - For surreptitious use of parabolic refectors. "Say matey, what's that shiny thing there on top of that wall?" (Sniff, Sniff) "Uhhh, Claudius, has our mighty Roman Warship always smoked like that?" Stinkin' Gamer... Hannibal - For unsportsmanlike use of Elephants. "So, you say our Roman Legions have been, er, flattened?" Stinkin' Gamer... The American Indian - For use of trees as cover in violation of stage directions. "Where's them dang arrows comin' from, Elroy?" Stinkin' Gamer... The Soldier of the American Revolution - For starting the "equipment race." "Rifled barrels? Long range fire? What the bloody hell...?" (Thud) Stinkin' Yank Gamer... Further nominations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikW Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Admiral Yamamoto. Everybody else thought the rules were you were supposed to announce the time and place of attack to your enemy. Heinz Guderian. That gamer actually used combined arms attacks. What gall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
