And now back to adding numbers in posts.

I was never very good at the running & jumping games, so role players suited me a bit better. I beat ChronoTrigger and FFVII before I beat The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.

Also, Happy New Year!

It should be noted that since me and my stats go by GMT-5, City_Master's post (#9304) is on the record as being the last one in 2012. ... 11:26 AM December 31st. Larks has the first post of 2013 (7:28 AM January 1st).

Yay! Another milestone to add to my list.

Yay,Muck is back welcome back mucky!

Thanks, Larks. Good to see you. Mucky, eh? Actually not sure if I have heard that one before. Usually it's mucker, muckler, muckity muck, muckaroni and cheese... I could go on. I lost a bet once and had to change my facebook name to Muckleberry Finn.Anyway, Happy New Year and beef jerky time to all!

That is why you do not gamble.

Is Muck part of your name or something?

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

9312

I don't bet because I'm afraid to lose them and be forced to do something I'd rather not.

[simlink 1,098]

9313

Yea, I generally follow the same philosophy... even if something as simple as wearing an opposing team jersey. Not going to happen.

[Muck308 55]

9314

My best friend lost a bet the same night. He had to dress up like the person he lost the bet to. These two individuals were not of the same gender.

No, Larks. Muck is not at all part of my name. One doesn't usually get to choose their nickname. I was no different. You'll have to speak with my friend Damon in order to find out why he chose that name. Muck stuck and ten years later that is what nearly everyone calls me. I don't even answer to John unless I'm with my family.

[kj3400 178]

9315

That is some nickname.

[Duke87 1,070]

(9316)

My nickname in college was "Megaman". No one still calls me that... but then again, I haven't seen most of the people I knew in college since I graduated. New era in life, new group of friends.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

9317

I've never really had a nickname, and I don't really know anyone who has one, not any that is in widespread use by everyone who knows this person. Kinda wish I did.

[Muck308 55]

9318

The trouble arises when I get introduced to people. So and so will say "I'd like you to meet my friend Muck." and they say "what's your name?" I always answer with "John."

"Oh. I thought he said your name was Mark."

"No, he said Muck."

"So wait a minute, what the heck is your name?"

It's annoying. I think introducing yourself with the title that your friends call you by is silly so I prefer to introduce myself to people with my real name. But nobody calls me John anyway so it just adds up to a bunch of mularky.

[Duke87 1,070]

(9319)

It's not very often that someone introduces me to someone else. Usually I'm introducing myself.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

9320

Well, I suppose if I had a friend who we all called a nickname, it would be fun, but the scenario described above sounds less so.

Hey, where is everybody?

[Larks2242 251]

But nobody calls me John anyway so it just adds up to a bunch of mularky.

So now Joe Biden is in the house?

[Muck308 55]

It has become rather quiet in here. I assume we lost some contributors.

[kj3400 178]

It's been slow like this for a while. I'd guess they got bored with the site, or had real life issues (work, school).

[Duke87 1,070]

(9324)

Member churn at the site has always been a thing, but nowadays it seems the latest crop of new members is not as interested in the off topic or forum game sections as previous generations were. Everyone's focused on talking about SC2013 instead.

[Muck308 55]

9325

That makes sense I suppose. I am a bit intrigued by the new SimCity a tad but I doubt I'll buy it or ever play it.

[astronelson 339]

9326.

I've found my attention drawn elsewhere recently.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

9327

There's a new SimCity? THERE'S A NEW SIMCITY? Oh yeah, I had almost forgotten.

[kj3400 178]

9328

Pfft.

You'd have to see me to know just how much of a pfft I was doing in reference to SC'13, but rest assured, it is a big pfffft.

Anyway, my attention is also divided for some reason. Man cannot live on SC4 alone....or bread for that matter, that stuff gets old quick, I can't imagine someone who'd just want to eat noodles.

That was a bit rambling...

Despite being busy with whatever, I always find time for the internet.
