My sports journalism blog • Rip City :: Uprise! [2-0]

They always get to like page two, then he starts hinting that he's going to quit which triggers 10-15 replies then he actually does quit which gives him another 10-15 and before he knows it he's on page 4.

Browsed Thierry's associations to see which had more pages among his stories (Thierry's record is 8 pages).
I noticed that Thierry really is an attention whore.
He had an association that he just flat out quit without his usual drama/excuses because of the 'lack' of followers/readers.


Here's the pattern most of you know about:

1. Makes an association.
2. People are follow the new one, Thierry is still excited to continue and update it.
3. A few people reply to his constant updates, which doesn't meet Thierry's expectations for the number of 'followers'.
4. Thierry whines about quitting.
5. More people reply, like Jae mentioned.
6. Thierry actually quits, his followers reply in his thread like what Jae said.
7. Rinse, Lather, & Repeat step 1, while he still has the attention of his followers from the previous story.


I forgot what that condition is called wherein a person always makes himself to be a victim just so they can be always noticed (step 4-6 of the Thierry process).

Thierry. Where "failing dynasties and the vicious circle" happens.

So basically, a failed association get more replies than a successful one?

That's the most frustrating part. And it's actually entertaining, the weather talk.

I'm waiting for 2k11 now. The new job, sports journalism, Split/Second and Pro Evo 2010 are taking my time.

And I'm sticking with the Yao-less Rockets.

You do that, I won't read it.

I know Valor won't do either I'm just playing without him, but you can rest assured he will be around in some way (assistant coach, blogger, something like that).

Damn it Thierry. Stop any sort of association planning right now. You're on rehab.

Lol shadow, I'm not planning anything Just said my team choice for when October comes.

[Axel The Great↑↓]

What do you have against Yao?

[kibaxx7↑↓]

It's not like I have him something against him... started to "hate" him when he wasn't as dominant as now, but still was voted almost No. 1 in the ASG (I was 14 years old back then and really didn't come to think fully, that he was voted by 1.000 million people), and the dislike carries on until today.

that

and for the point of Yao, not his problem that the 1.3 billion in China wants to vote him in. and i dont think him starting in the allstar game is a problem either. I would rank him as the second most skilled big man in the NBA today behind Pau, so stop the hate/dislike man

I just noticed this is the second time Thierry's used "Uprise" as an association title. I knew sooner or later he'd run out of words to use

"Uprise" the first one and "Rip City: Uprise" this one. It's because you can see "Uprise" in the 2k10 introduction on the Blazers court. But, why don't we continue talking about weather? I don't want to talk about associations until October

Then why not come to the "Random" thread.
