2,500 is celebrated with a few beers

Tue Aug 30, 2005 11:39 pm

hmm....I reached the Silver Anniversary post number 2,500....this will be my first and last shoutout thread until I retire or reach 5,000, whichever comes first....

basically to date I have enjoyed myself around here for the good part of the last year....despite it's lumps and the chumps, all-in-all it really is a pretty good community which makes me want to come back, which definitely says a lot about the place....it's a good stress reliever from work (I often view from work in my breaks) and there are a lot of good, intelligent (mostly) people around....

anyways enough ramble, basically I'm not going to do throw some party as cyanide and co. are always a hard act to follow....instead, I will do something more my style....quick shoutouts involving :beer: :D

if you're not covered, don't sweat it, I might have just forgotten you....btw, the ratings aren't linear and don't hold too much relevance so they're just for fun....

THE MODS/ADMIN

Andrew - smart guy who will no doubt be successful in life once he catches a few more breaks....he's the glue of the NLSC and Tim couldn't have got a better successor than Andrew
Rating = I shout 1st :beer: , being the good guy Andrew is, he shouts 2nd :beer: ....I shout 3rd :beer: and before Andrew can get the 4th :beer: I vanish

Jae - probably my favourite poster from the NLSC, and has been all along I'd say....funny guy who is probably smarter than he gives himself credit for (I'm not talking book smarts, just real smarts)....co-MVP of NLSC with Andrew....your work is thoroughly appreciated, at least by me
Rating = I shout 1st :beer: and 2nd :beer: for being a fellow Ced Ceballos fan

Jackal - Jackal's a strange one in my books....he's not easy to pick....sometimes he seems likeable, other times he is definitely not....I have no problems with him and appreciate the job he does around here, although like Weaver, you argue a bit too much for my liking....would like to here more about the "Island"....when I hear the "Island", it gets the imagination running....
Rating = I shout 1 :beer: while listening to you tell a story about the "Island"

Matthew - don't really know you at all, but you seem pretty clued on with respect to NBA and life matters in general....also an avid user of the :crazy: smiley
Rating = I shout 1 :beer:


THE DYNASTY HEADS

Dweaver - good dynasties, intelligent guy, good sense of humour, good guy to have around....argues a bit too much for my liking, but ahh well, that's Weaver for you
Rating = I shout 1st :beer: , I then realise that you can always liquify some of your assets so you shout :beer: :beer: :beer:

Sit - good Lakers dynasty....although he seems to cop flak from a few of the mods, he's a good guy who makes a good contribution around the NLSC....and that's despite being a Kobe fan....and if I hadn't already told you, you'll be happy to know that I'm finally getting back into competitive basketball each week
Rating = you're underage so you can have a soft drink

Mafia - great Suns/76ers dynasty....although I don't know you too well you seem to have a good head on your shoulders, and I'll look forward to your '06 dynasty instalment
Rating = you're underage so you can have a soda

Match_66 - fellow Kiwi, luv your dynasties and the only other notable Kiwi on the NLSC....go Crusaders and AB's
Rating = as is the Kiwi way, we each take turns at shouting :beer: until we run out of money, and then stumble home

Also to all the other dynasty heads who don't really frequent general talk, good to have you around supporting dynasties all around....sorry if I didn't mention you individually....


THE CANADIANS

cyanide - one of top couple of posters in general talk....intelligent, witty and a great guy to have around
Rating = I shout 1st :beer: , you shout 2nd :beer: even though you don't feel like another drink

Legend - cool Canadian guy who is always good for a laugh and good to have around the forum
Rating = I shout 1st :beer: , you somehow vanish on your shout


THE YOUNG GUNS

The G.O.A.T. - a 12 year old (almost 13) who is appears smarter than quite a few 17 and 18 year old guys around here....has a lot of life experience for someone of his age and is a good contributor to the forum
Rating = despite you being underage, I still manage to slip you 2 :beer: , my shout of course

Fender - a good young poster, even if you do seem to follow Weaver around at times (or at least it seems that way at times)....probably know you best for the best avatar on NLSC....please don't change it....
Rating = despite you being underage, I still manage to slip you 1 :beer: , but this one is on Jackal since you always have his back

Mags (aka DD Jugs) - good young guy around the forums....stick around
Rating = have a Pepsi Max kid


THE GENERAL CHATTERS

Riot - funny guy who at time seems like a hillbilly, at other times seems very Americanised and other times seems quite intelligent....Riot is probably one of them and the jury is still out
Rating = you are a law-abiding citizen so you receive no :beer: from me in fear of you reporting me to the authorities

ceekay - you didn't get Gerald Green, but you did get Nate Robinson and David Lee, so things are at least a little bit more bearable for the Knicks....luv the witty one-liners you come up and enjoy your dynasty contributions
Rating = I shout 1 :beer:

COOLmac - you somehow survived your 1st month at the NLSC which was a shock to me....glad you did as you are an improved poster....while you go off on your tangent in most posts you do sometimes post insightful comments and theories that people probably disregard because they come from you....or maybe I just see that because we are a similar age, who knows....
Rating = you're shouting me 1 :beer: and please don't bring any 12 year old looking girls along....they have to at least look 16 or preferably like a certain someone's niece :D

Jowe - funny guy who delivers some great one-liners....also luv the ball textures patch which I use in my game
Rating = I shout 1 :beer:

Jonex - you will once again be clumped together....don't really know you guys, but everyone seems to like you, so yeah
Rating = I shout 1 :beer: to each of them


THE NBA TALKERS

fgrep - has savvy NBA knowledge and it's always worth reading your NBA talk posts
Rating = I shout 1 :beer:

Air Gordon - like fgrep, has very good NBA knowledge and it's always worth reading your NBA talk posts, especially the tequilia and Chris Anstey-related ones
Rating = I shout 1 tequilia shot

Indy - was going to put you under General Talkers but since you luv Reggie and Pacers, this seemed like the most appropriate place for you....intelligent poster who will be missed by many when he starts college....enjoy college life mate
Rating = I shout 1 :beer: while checking out the form of....Reggie Miller's jumpshot :?


THE OTHERS

Peter Griffin - even though you are completely and utterly wrong about Sean Marks, I still hope you get the girl....what you must do is get your ass into gear and get that girl....if she is as good as you say she is then she won't be available for ever....just do it for the sanity of all around NLSC
Rating = your friends can shout you
Wisdom Kid - no comment, except :mrt:
Rating = unrateable


if anyone doesn't want their :beer: then I guess I'll have to have it :wink: and if I hadn't already mentioned it, if anyone skips on paying for their :beer: then it's going on Jackal's tab :wink:


again, if you weren't mentioned, then I blame it all on the :beer: :crazy:
:chug:

Damn, I should have mentioned "Best Avatar" as an award to Indy, then I could win and powder my ego. I have no idea why you like it so much. :lol: Well, in the words of air_gordon, "There's always a cool uncle who can slip you some beer". I guess you're my cool uncle. Congrats.

Wed Aug 31, 2005 1:25 am

Great stuff X (Y) You're one of my top 10 posters around here, even though you're a Kiwi and all... then again my best friend is a Kiwi, so I'll make exceptions. Hope you stick around and make another shoutout thread, and I think you've just set the record for most amount of :beer: smileys used in a thread. Ever.

I found out who's in your avatar by the way. (I remember you just randomly searched him up, so I guess I should tell you who he is).

Domo-kun is a small brown open-mouthed monster hatched from an egg who lives with a wise old rabbit underground. He really, really likes TV and also enjoys rocking out to Guitar Wolf. Domo-kun is the mascot of NHK's BS2 (a satellite channel; he also appears on BS1). NHK has been producing a series of Domo-kun stop-motion vignettes that exude personal charm and warmth. There is also a wide variety of Domo-kun-related merchandise available, some of which is difficult/impossible to find in the US.

Me and my friend were going to buy a Domokun toy from eBay months ago, he was in my sig too at one point (Y) He looks so angry all the time :lol:
