Michael Morrison

Oh snap!

You went to a wedding and didn't drink or eat cake? Totally changed my perception of ya. Hook up with any bridesmaids?

So I'm guessing the priest at Andranic's wedding didn't use the Morrison Method, because I heard you were upchucking cake and Bacardi as if you were trying to make some kind of home-made rum cake.

Nice. I like the "Open Court" concept.

That is one fine looking card. If it could cook and had a vagina, I'd totally marry that card.

Hey, Parker... what's with your color changing, fed swapping belt? You better put a leash on that belt and tell it to act right. We don't need you and Cooper thinking you're WWE Champions... then again, that would be an interesting feud.

Oh thank god. Page 2 is the only heavy page. I'll actually be able to finish this show in one sitting. EDIT: FAVORITE QUOTES **The scene opens up in Burbank, outside the arena, security posted at the loading bay entrance** Security 1 : ....so i said to her that I'm not doing that, especially with her brother Security 2 : And what did she say? Security 1 : mmmph.... Security 2 : That easy? Security 1 : YOU KNOW IT YEAH! Security 2 : YEAH! ** the two security guards jock high five each other as the cameran pans around to behind a car, a Man wearing a black hoodie is sat on the floor propped up against the car with a tire iron in hand** Blade : douchebags Fade out (Four more years of Douchebag! Blade will get it.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Security : Hola? (think Cartman impersonating latino's when you read these parts) (I appreciate the base reference.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VFM : Oh my dear lord, this is the VP, get me someone on the phone who speaka de english. Security : Mr. Cheney? (It takes cojones to make fun of a man who can shoot someone in the face with a shotgun and used a "my bad" to get out of it. None the less, I can see that this RP will be full of quotes, so I'll just pull an Oprah and recommend that you read it.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ryder: "Tonight, I will take on Eddie Mace of Death Row, as part os his Hardcore Tour .. thing. (How many Hardcore Tours are going on right now?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ryder: "Learn to zoom in, you idiot" (You tell him, Ryder. What's the world coming to when you can't even depend on a proper zoom-in for dramatic effect? Disgraceful.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the bell rings, both Kang and Gaines stand in the ring, playing to the crowd. The crowd begin chanting "I-Gen", and "Thank you" with very mild applause. Both get ready to leave the ring as the referee hands Kang his International Title. As I-Gen's music begins to play, Aries comes out from the crowd, and grabs a chair. Kang and Gaines, not knowing what is happening behind them, continue playing to the crowd. Aries slides and the ring, and hits Gaines square in the back with the chair. Kang quickly turns around, and tries to closethline Aries. Aries dodges, and hits Kang in the stomach with edge of the chair. James begins to hold his abdomen in pain and falls to his knees. Aries flips the chair and holds it in an upright position. With an all out swing, Aries nearly decapitates Kang with the chair. James falls back, and lay unconcious. Aries drops the chair and looks over on the mat. He spots the International Title and calmy walks over to it. He picks it up, and rolls out of the ring with it. He starts staring in the ring, and around the audience, clutching the title as if its Wrestlution and he just won the OCW World Heavyweight Title. He continues his way up the ramp, as Gaines slowly stumbles to his knees, making his way over to an unconcious Kang. (I was told there was a time that every match was written out like this. Just food for thought.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VFM: “You. Shouldn't you be guarding my safe instead of distracting me from this very important and valuable paper work?” Cooper: “I got it covered man.” VFM: “How so?” The camera cuts back to Versus's massive safe, which seemingly breaks the laws of physics and follows him no matter which arena he's in. On the vault is a note that says “NOT Versus's Secret Vault. Please Do Not Try to break into. Thank you for Cooperation, Love, Coop”. The Camera then pans back to Versus and Coop. (Sadly, this would probably work on half the population at this point.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cooper: “Well as you can see, I claimed the WWE Championship on Turmoil. My first taste of gold here in OCW, and it's not even OCW gold. But looking at it, it's not even the current WWE title. It's not new and hip like the real one. As you know, I'm hip with the crowds here. Cool like Coop is what they say. So I need to keep up with the times.” VFM: “Obviously. Everyone likes a big vicious goon. How could you not?” Cooper: “I need to get the spinner belt. I don't need this stale, rigid, traditional belt. I need the real thing. Word Life and all that. Who do I see to do that?” (If Cooper keeps this up, he'll be known as Super Duper Cooper. I know it's not really funny, but I didn't know what else to say about the quote...) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VFM: “Your ass is grass, and i'm a smoke it Nate!!!!!” (Remind me to never keep my weed in my back pocket.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ocwfed.net/forum/../images/staff/riot/scaggs.jpg That was deporable. http://www.ocwfed.net/forum/../images/staff/riot/al.jpg Oh stop being a pussy. (Somebody had to say it. And he spelled deplorable wrong. I think "deporable" is what Carlos Cruz was. I could be wrong.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Security 1 : Wait....didnt he have a tire iron? Should of we taken it off him? Security 2 : did he say he was gong to use it? Security 1 : he did say he was going to cave someones face in? Security 2: Was it one of ours? Security 1: Nope Security 2 : Then I don't car.... **A man dressed like Blade with a boom box walks up to the door** Security 2 : BURT GET AWAY YOUR BANNED! Burt : But Steven... (Gotta read both RP's to truly appreciate the tie off at the end.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sensation: “Shutup Megaman,I had your umpa lumpa word.” (Referencing Vic Vimes) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sensation: “And I'll laugh when a pigeon flies down and scoops you up to feed its young,You have a job to do Vic. Go do it.” (Referencing Vic Vimes once again. I never get tired of these. Jay's gotta run out of "short" jokes eventually... unless he's using all the ones people have made about him in the past.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VFM : Son of a bitch, Welp no sense in crying, time to kick a hall of famers ass. (I know it's simple, but there's something incredibly badass about it... to me, at least.)

FAVORITE QUOTES Blade: ...He looks like Versus but it’s not the guy I remember....not anymore..... So I came back, not to Save Us....not to Save Me....but to Save....Him....If that means I get the old Versus back or.......We don’t have any more Mr Montpellier.... (Great opening RP that gets the energy flowing.) VFM: Sometimes jackasses can't see the forest through the trees man. (I just like the word "jackass". Been using it allot lately.) Nathan: It doesn't matter who you are or what you do, tonight there's a good chance Versus and that other guy are going to get "double penetrated" (I'd say it was taken out of context... but I'm not really sure if it is.) Cooper: “Yeah, a ladder match for no reason, that makes a lot of sense there. It's for the WWE Championship and you're just trying to discourage me so I don't give it my all. Technically, since I'm suppose to be a huge dick right now, I should jackknife you through a table for that. But since you're giving me an opportunity at the WWE Championship, I'll let you pass for now.” (You gotta read the whole thing. I love that 4th wall.) Smythe: And you aren't saying the rest... Wesley were in Belgium... there is NOTHING worth giving your number to in Belgium. (My wife is from there... jackass.) Sensation: “It isn't when I want to stay afloat in a diamond shark tark fused with the ashes of Jesus and Mother Theresa.” (How often do I get to correct Jaysin's spelling? It's shark tank not tark... although, Shark Tark is kind of catchy... like something you pop in the toaster for a while or something.) Sensation: “Fine then, Vic. Write your tell all. Maybe knowing that the head of the company loves the artistic works of pre-teen Disney singers will help me recapture the pre-teen girl demographic that I've been losing since Heaton dropped off the face of the earth. (Haha... Heaton. Where is that little bugger? I have to admit, I kind of miss making fun of him. Come back, TiT.) Vimes: “...and if you try to lord anything over me again, I'm telling the world you're the world's biggest fan of Hanna Montana.” A beep is heard, signifing the end of the call. Jay frowns, and looks to his phone, presses some buttons, and looks towards the screen lovingly as some pop music plays. Sensation: “They just don't understand our special relationship, Miley...” (This RP is on fire with quality, water-cooler worthy discussion.) Cooper: “Don't be a hater, Trisha. This is my dream. I am proud to be the new WWE Champion and I will defend it like a fighting champion, against any comer who wants to face me for my title. I'm going to celebrate this with extra tea. Bonsai Tree gets bonus fertilizer. I'm hoping for another legendary run, just like Diesel. Only I hope house show attendance doesn't plummet under my reign like it did his...” (Once again, you really gotta read the RP's.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Just wanted to give some shout outs. The Omega/Hoppus match makes me wish 2009 was already here, because I think the Ex-Division will benefit with the changes made in SvR, not that OD isn't doing a fine job with what he has now. In fact, I'd almost go so far as to say it's one of my favorite versions of SvR. I'm not sure if it's because everything has been so bad that I've forgotten what a good SvR game is, or if it's because they actually made a decent fucking game. Either way, make me proud you little flying Asians and Mexicans. Also... smooth move, Parker. Remember to hit the "stop recording" button at the end of the match lol. Like I said, I love that 4th wall. That reminds me: why has no one in OCW made a team/faction called the 4th Wall? We need a faction to take on the Inner Circle. This is Mad Mike, reminding everyone that you can never go back home... isn't that right, Blade O_o

Considering you've done time, he's probably going to ask if you prefer jelly or syrup.

Woooo, first post. Nice opening statement, by the way O_o

I just wanted to say... I appreciate the effort, sir. I say this because I know you cry yourself to sleep every night, wondering if anyone cares. Well, we do care, Jaysin... we do care... ...you sobbing little man-gina.

The 3 way had a respectable amount of spots... even without the O(snap)mega Bomb Counter thing. Even though I hate playing SvR2008 with anything more than two people - for reasons that have been expressed numerous times already in the forums - the match reminded me why I used to enjoy 3/4 Way matches. With the extra security of having someone else who doesn't want you to get pinned - lest they lose the match as well - and being aware of the universal truth when it comes to SvR 3-Way matches (body damage and finishers don't account for much in these bouts) it gives players a little extra courage. What I mean by "courage" is that people take more risks; which makes for great fun, as a player and as an observer. I'm gonna miss Carlos, although I think he got the short end of the ladder during that match. He practically drained the entire belt, only to have Ryder suckle on the last remaining bit of victory from the teet of job security. I'm not exactly sure if that's an analogy or what, but you get what I'm saying... hopefully. None the less, I wouldn't count Carlos out just yet. It almost looked like Ryder was gonna give the Mexican a break for once, but the crowd swayed him otherwise. We'll never know what was to follow that interrupted "I..." Anyone up for some Sugar-Ray? Yeah... me neither. I have to admit, I actually enjoyed some Sugar-Ray songs when I was younger, but when I listen to it now, it seems to annoy me. I guess I'm just gonna have to bust out with some Halcyon Way to rid me of that bitter memory. Remember kids, there's the wrong way and then there's the Halcyon Way b :) d I was actually going to say something negative about the short pages, but I appreciate how everyone kept their RP's fairly short. I mean, the RP's before the PPV should be enough to explain what's going on and why. No real need for everyone to have typical, lengthy RP's during the PPV I suppose. I could see if it was for the ME match or certain angles, but I liked the pattern of "slight recap RP" + "match" + "quick, post-match affects/results". Bam, Bam and Bam.

I will gladly give up my head if it means I won't have to listen to that crap. The sound of my head rolling could be considered more muscially sound than the theme for DN.

Considering the theme, I will prey you have the balls to disobey the boss.

Oh for fuck's sake. Next I'm gonna be signed to OCW's first kids book, entitled "Where's Madness?". Anyways, as Parker pointed out, my XBOX crapped out, although it wasn't the 3 rings... if it was I wouldn't have to pay $100 to get it fixed. I didn't think about it at the time, but a friend of mine said I should have wrapped a towel around it until it red ringed and then called the Customer Support line. Fortunately, Mad Mike may be back in the game sooner than expected because lately I've been rather impatient... also because everyone keeps talking about Dead Space while Gears of War 2 is almost out, along with SvR 2009. I don't mind if Trips plays as me for the match, as I've never been one to let my ego get in the way of bizness and Trips has a better win record than me anyways :P

Shazam! I showed my wife the "Bloodsport" ones and she about died laughing. Unfortunately, she doesn't know much about OCW and she hates most hip-hop, so this one won't have the same affect I'm afraid. Favorite parts had to be the "Cue the fight music" *Move Bitch by Luda, kicks in* and the Vic Vimes cameo. Only problem was reading some of the blue text... maybe add some shadow or black outlines around the text next time. Other than that; solid gold.

More than likely, he's talking about me. It's funny, despite my reputation for being almost impossible to get a hold of, you'd be surprised at how many people actually want to work with me. It's like flunking high school, only to have NASA constantly send you job applications. In all fairness, it was rude of me not to at least respond, so I apologize to you, sir. Speaking of bad timing, I wanted to thank all those who've been putting up with my lack of availability and doing their best to work around it. I understand that it's a burden, but I appreciate the willingness to help out. I don't want people to thing I don't care or that their efforts are going unnoticed.

Maybe if your mom was Vince McMahon. Jesus, bra... what else did your mother tell you as a child? "If you don't clean up your room, Mommy is gonna take that fucking super soaker, turn that sumbitch sideways, polish it up real nice and stick it straight up your candy ass! If you smeeeeeeeeeell... what Mommy... is cookin'.... which is pork chops and mashed potatoes, by the way. Now clean up your damn room."

It's time to express myself, once again, with interpretive dance. http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/96/babyking23de2.gif Alright, for those who aren't that familiar with interpretive dance, the KangaRat thing is me (enjoying OCW), while the evil black bird is negativity. None the less, Trips is entitled to his opinion and who knows, maybe he's just having a bad week. Although the card itself isn't one that would initially have me saying, "Holly sticky keyboards, I need more alcohol wipes now", I think what upsets some people (including VerSuse) is that the RP's/storylines could still be magical and steal the show. I mean, the last few shows have been amazing when it comes to angles and feuds. Before, you'd get one or two funny RP's and the rest would be fillers, but now, there's allot of good shit goings ons. In other words, you shouldn't be damning a show just based off the card itself, as it is subject to change anyways. In my eyes, the card is just to let people know who is "scheduled" to wrestle. Maybe in the past, it used to determine whether or not it would be a good show, as cards were made that way, but I think staff is trying to pull away from that and actually have the show, sell the show... if you get what I'm saying.

Oh I'll take a number alright... I'll take that number and um... fuck, I got nothing. But yeah, when it comes to number taking, you might as well call me The Count. One *bam* ahah, two *bam* ahah, two... two fists to the face, ahah.

From the amount of views, I figured RIOT was a huge success, but I guess I should have known the views were due to another "offstage" dispute. None the less, the show was solid and had allot of fun/entertaining moments. I tend to find a little something with every RP and match, so this will probably turn into another long "Madness Report" type post, but eh. The beginning video was a little rough to watch, despite being mostly movie clips, it was still a representation of what occurred. I was going to type out a long reply concerning the affects and the years that followed after 9/11, but there really is no need. I was fresh out of highschool when it happened, but it doesn't feel like it's been 7 years. Moving along... first page already consists of a great quote, referring to Smythe's first few months here at OCW as Malu recalls what they used to call his career, "Pin me, pay me." Ouch. The Bloodline RP was decent but it really didn't get me amped up until VFM/VP of OCW Operations/VerSuse/Mr. Montpellier makes an appearance. I don't know, but when ever he shows up, crazy shit happens and even crazier outcomes proceed. Val / Hallow: I was impressed with Val's comeback there. He was in deep trouble but managed to flip Hallow from Double Orange to Double Red with two moves, get's his finisher reversed (a ground fin no less, Kudos to Hallow) only to kick out right before the 3 count after Hallow hits his own finisher. It was a series of "oh snap" moments that almost seemed choreographed. My only problem was... Brittany Spears? Really? The "pick your partner" duel between Bauer and Kip was great. Kip comes out strong by giving Bauer "Black Dragon" (sho nuff), but Bauer one-ups the Kipper by giving him none other than Thanatos. Immediately I thought, touche'. The RP works out well, because now I'm really interested in seeing how this match turns out. When ever Thanatos is involved, it's either going to be an epic failure or epic surprise. I-Gen seems to be having some emo-tional problems within the group, but Kang and Aries brought up an interesting point when it comes to Leon's dedication to the TEAM, which leaves one to wonder if Leon could not only be voted off the island, but stranded there as well. Carlos, I dig your entrance music, but it seems better suited for a movie trailer. It really doesn't put me in that OCW mindset. I still prefer the old-school theme. I guess I'll just keep playing Conquest, by "The White Stripes" in my head for now :P We still don't know who's trying to deport the Mexi-Can-I-Stay-Here, but a message did insinuate that who ever he/they are, he/they will be seeing him soon. Judging from the text, I'm gonna go with JBL. What... you've seen how he talks to Rey and mocks him by calling him "Amigo". Well, at least the text didn't have red letters and pictures of clocks... Smythe / Irving: Seth Blackman... er Irving, has such a great entrance theme, because even if he was the height and weight of Craig Neal, I'd still be thinking "Oh noes". Speaking of "oh noes" it looked like Smythe was going to put this one to bed early, but Irving's blinking fin meter saved his ass as he no-sold Smythe's finisher. Not even a 1 count, bra. In retrospect, Irving might have wished he did get pinned earlier, because it only bought a few more moments before Smythe delivered the boot. I can't wait to see Smythe vs. Mace in a Boot Scoot n' Boogie Match. The turning point was when Irving made a fatal mistake in trying to headbutt Smythe, which did more damage to Seth. You should have known better, Seth... Smythe was clotheslined 20 times and his head remained intact. Next time, give him the Nutcase and pray those aren't made of titanium either. Fausto, Tiffany, Nate and Mr. Montpellier are going the be seeing allot of each other, it would seem, which spells fun for everyone. Not much I can say here, other than point out Fausto's track record for great RP's. I also appreciate how they're bringing in stuff that happened in the past, like why they won't fire Guy Fausto (I know it's been a running gag from the get go, but some of the newer guys might not get it). I'm also curious to see how Montpellier plans on rectifying the technicality in Fausto's rematch clause from KOCW. Ryder/Trips & Aries: Not a big fan of Two-On-Ones... but what happened afterwards was pretty interesting. We finally get a glimpse at the man who may be responsible for tipping off Imigration about Carlos Cruz... Jason Voorhees. Jason has lost some weight n' mass, but he's cut like a Ken doll. He's also turned in the coveralls for a pair of black slacks and stylish Converse kicks. Jason's gone skater on us, folks. This is a bold move, considering skaters aren't intimidating in any way. I mean, when's the last time you saw a pack of skater dudes walking your way and thought, "Roll up the window and lock the doors, they look like they could be trouble." Now, Aries using the audience glitch to make a fun little video after this seemed a bit out of place, because it means Aries, for some odd reason, had to come back to the ring for something. Maybe if they used the video during the 2-on-1, and had Aries leave out of anger, thus turning it into a 1-on-1 match, then I would have marked. None the less, nice effort and idea. Ooooo, Vincent tries to pull a Kane/Punk by disguising himself as one of The Steve's intoxicated security dudes, but the plan backfires as The Steve gets the last laugh and delivers a MONK SHOT! Oh, Mr. Montpellier, although I am greatly entertained by your antics, me thinks that karma be building up and it ain't the good kind. You remember what karma is, don't you... back when you went all Tony "Banana Hands" Robins on us. Leon sounds like he means serious business and I'd... alright... I don't really think you should be worried about Leon, but yeah, karma. LAWL. Funniest RP of the night, so far, involves Alex Cooper trying his best to come out of the closet... and it's not what you think. Kang / Angelo: Alright, I'm gonna use this time to give Angelo some advice. Angelo, you're pretty much the opposite of me and what I mean by that is: Your offense is the strongest part of your game, but defense is lacking. I'm sure some people think, "As long as I learn how to reverse grapples, I'm set" but let me tell you something, everyone here is good at reversing grapples... it's the way the game is. Kang was easily hitting strike after strike and I can't remember when you actually countered one without having thrown a punch at the same time. By not countering at least one strike, you're pretty much telling Kang, "Keep hitting me, cus' I'm more worried about grapples." and I'm sure Kang heard you loud and clear lol. Don't forget, this is somewhat of a chess game and patterns are your worst enemy. You can't keep blocking your ribs and throwing the same jab, otherwise you'll get Liddelled. This goes out to all the rooks. Don't think you can make it to the top without mastering every part of the game... including the mental part. Great, I sound like Kevin Nash now... you guys happy?!?! Speaking of mental; the cheese done finally slid off Mania's spoon? I might have said this once before about the Spooner, but in this case, the cheese not only slid off, but there is no spoon. Wooo, that's a joke within a movie quote. That ain't easy to pull off, people... well maybe it is, but allow me to enjoy it, at least. Knox / P2S: Move of the night goes to Knox at the 14:45 marker. Both men had the same idea, one man saw his idea come to light. Unfortunately, worst move of the night also goes to Knox, when he was one grapple/strike away from getting a finisher, attempts to steal Parker's taunt but was interrupted - causing his own momentum to plummit down to nothing. Oooooo nooooooo! I wasn't sure if my fellow MadMan was gonna pull this one off or not, as Knox wasn't going down easy. I wonder how frustrated Stevens was when Knox countered not one, but two of his finisher attempts. He had to go to the submission to finally put Knox away, but what a battle. As for Stevens' little easter eggs: don't fret it man, I sometimes put little soundbites and stuff in the matches I edit but no one seems to notice. Then again, mine are more subtle than your 3 minutes of God awful commercial breakage... if you can call it that. Well, well - Leonheart vs. Mace is coming up and I'mz so'z excited'z. I want to thank Mace for not giving me a funny name when listing off the people's he's beaten recently... unless you intended "Mikey" to be a shot at me... in which case, that was laaaaaaaaame lol. Deano "Bam Bam" Horse is coming back to Turmoil and who isn't excited about that... besides the fact that you have to wrestle him and pray he doesn't pitch a tent. Ever try pinning a guy with his tower at full tilt? It's the epidamy of awkward. As most of y'all should know by now, P2S must now recreate his 19-0 streak from when he was originally Hardcore Champion, thanks to VFM and this rediculous Road to Redemption Tour. Now, I have faith in P2S and now that he's got the Method Man on his side, there's no doubt in my twisted mind he can get this done... but just in case, I'll be accepting tag team resumes. Just make sure it's typed and left at my desk... and please don't put suggestions for a Tag Team name. Kip & Thanatos / Bauer & Black: Let's start off with a little trivia for those that don't know or forgot, but I helped design the outfit that Thanatos was sportin'. Of course, it looked cooler back in 2007... the 2008 version seems a bit off or something. Anyways, this is when we discovered that no matter how you fix up the outside, the inside is still Thanatos... and there's no cure for that. Also, just to clear it up, I'm not responsible for Black Dragon or Bauer's BELT OF POWERRRRRRR! BAUER POWER, ACTIVATE! It turned out to be a pretty fun match to watch. My favorite part is when both legal guys end up outside the ring. Bauer enters the ring from his corner and makes a B-Line right towards Thanatos... who just kind of stares at Buaer from the outside apron. When Bauer is about to collide with the big red kabuki, he simply steps off the apron and grabs Bauer's legs. He then calmly gets back on the apron and punches the confused Bauer. Come on, that's funny. A great scene between Smythe and Trips over the #1 Contendor spot is brought to us, with Smythe winning the battle of stats and words, if you ask me. For a moment, it looks like we're going to have a 3-Way at S2R, but Montpellier busts out with more "no's" than D-Jack's first dating experience. However, to quote the late Heath Ledger, "It's all... part of the plan." Eddie Mace / Leonheart: Wow... wasn't what I expected at all. I wouldn't say Leon dominated that match, but it was pretty damn close to it. Leon new what kind of opponent Mace was and did the right thing by playing his game and being aggressive. He was on Mace like Yager on bad outcomes. Mace's ability to reverse two of Leon's finisher (seems that Leon is prone to having his finisher reversed) is what kept him in the game, but it would seem that Leon scouted Mace's previous matches, because Mace had trouble connecting with some of his trademarks. Then again, you don't go undefeated for so long without people paying attention and noticing things like that. Like I said, I wouldn't call it a blow-out, as Mace was able to get Leon in the red zone and kept the game going, but if anyone was doubting Leon's skills, I can't see how they would have room to doubt any longer. An impressive win, but I wouldn't count Mace out of the Title picture just yet. I have a feeling that who ever walks away from S2R as Champion, can expect a conjugal visit from Death Row's biggest inmate. Emmidiately after the match is a nicely done video featuring The Air, but I'm sure most of you know what happens during this "what should have been a" magical moment. More or less, Cooper comes out of the closet, much to the delite of one Montpellier, and snaps like a 10 year old Slim Jim. Finally, in response to Jaysin's video at the end of the show: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1R9oZN2wZk&feature=related]YouTube - Taxi Driver - Mad World[/ame]

I'm already working on your DVD; P2 the Motherf***ing S: The man involved in a screwjob so bad that even Bret Hart said, "Damn..." Let me know when you go back to your old bingo hall fed so I can be in the audience while you badmouth OCW. I just wanna see if that douche that told Braden Walker to follow his heart shows up there too, so I can inform him that he's gay, in case his family has yet to let him know.

Damn you! Wait... that doesn't work. http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/050519/9554__fgorshin_l.jpg You Failed

Alright, I gave this a shot, since I'm easily hooked by puzzles and such... one of my biggest character flaws is that I hate not knowing the answer or solution to things. It helps in my line of work, but outside of work, it's a pain. Alright, so lets review the first post/letter Alright, so the obvious main theme deals with "TIME", which goes with the repeated highlighted phrase "CAN'T BEGIN". Other highlighted words seem to be restrictive (getting in the way of time), such as "SICK" and "FRICTION". Other key words that grabbed my attention were "rhythm" and "game". The image of the clock resembles the clocks found in famous paintings from Salvador Dali, who also had a thing for "time", but that's all I could find that seemed like it could be related. The hands are pointing to both 10's which could mean 10:10, XII, IIX, X2, 2X and so on. The color schemes are red, white and blue, but whether or not the colored words/phrases are meant to be singled out (signifying that we should ignore the plain white text)... I can't really say. The only word in blue is TICK. Perhaps there is a connection to the American flag, but the 4th of July and September 11th have already passed, and those are the only dates that I can think of that would combine the first theme of time with the American colors. I also thought that maybe the words/phrases in red could be song lyrics, due to how some are repeated, but the only song that really came up was a song by Bing Crosby... which didn't make any sense, so eh. Follow Up Letter/Post Once again, he addresses all of OCW, so I'm assuming he isn't focused on one particular group or individual. The style of the letters reminded me of cliche serial killers from movies, (You know, where they speak to the cops like they're stupid lol) so I checked up on Kyle Stax's info and guess what - he's a student, studying Psychology as his major and Criminal Justice as his minor... go figure. Anyways, once again, red, white and blue are the main colors. "TIME" is in blue... last time it was "TICK". The red is now just on key letters as opposed to full words or phrases. The red letters are also all in caps, with exception to the letter "i" for some reason. Maybe it's a hint that "i" is the first letter in the puzzle? Also, like the first letter, whether or not we are supposed to ignore the white text completely and focus on the colored letters is unclear, but it's definitely implied at this point. I couldn't really find a pattern to how he chose which letters to color, IE: Every 4th letter or the first letter to every second word. I do get the feeling that he put the letters in the order he wanted us to see them though, because there are E's and A's all over the letter, but he chose to highlight his E's and A's in a specific location, as if he didn't want them to be ahead or behind the other letters he highlighted... if that makes any sense. When you seperate the colored portions, you get RAYBTIMESSMCEHiHXTHETR Now, even when put to an algorithm, the possible sentences reach over 5,000. I thought that with the letter X (not allot of common words with the letter X in it) that it would make it a little easier, but nope. Take into consideration that the X could be part of Stax's name and it just makes it even more complicated. I think the funniest one I saw was about Rich Beast Sex Rythm... so yeah. Of course, it might not even be an anagram, it could be a different kind of word play all-together. My head is starting to hurt, so on to the last one. Last Letter/Post It changes up a bit. No more blue, mostly white with just a lonely 2 in red. He still comes off as a snarky prick, but that's to be expected. No reference to time in this one, mostly just about "rules" and "games". He does break away slightly from addressing all of OCW when he says, "OR maybe the wrong people are playing the game." So maybe he IS focused on a certain group or individual. Here's a fun fact, the artist responsible for the graffiti alphabet goes by the name "Stacks" which is awfully close to "Stax". Coincidence? Obvious clue is the red 2, which doesn't really tell us anything and the only thing that looks like a two on the picture is the letter Z at the end. If you try applying different variables of 2, to the alphabet, it doesn't do anything either so as far as I'm concerned... it's just a red 2. It might mean something when compared to the other letters, as I said, the clock hands were pointing to the X and II (possibly representing doubles or 2x10), or maybe we're suppose to add it to the end of the red letters from the 2nd post. END RESULT/THOUGHTS In the end, I dont' see how anyone is suppose to figure out what any of this means, as there isn't enough information and allot of variables that could be simple grammar mistakes: like saying "FRICTION" instead of "FICTION" in the first letter... or the lowercase "i" in the second letter, when all the other letters were in CAPS. Other clues seem like clues but may not be clues at all: like how the clock hands were pointing at 10:10, or the "Stacks" coincidence. Maybe it's because we haven't been told "the rules" that he referrs to and if that's the case, trying to solve the puzzle without the rules is pointless. I doubt anyone (other than an obsessive-compulsive bastard like me) is willing to dig that deep into it and keep each letter saved as he goes along, trying to figure it out. If no one is willing to figure it out, then each letter loses it's meaning and it just becomes crazy rantings that no one cares about. Not trying to be mean, I actually thought it would turn out kind of fun, but the more I thought about it, the more it seemed like a pointless endeavour. Then again, someone might have already figured it out and it's something obvious I just happened to miss. Either way, I'm no match for a Psych major.

Fuck me sideways, I just thought Air had mad reversing skills lol. I was like, "Damn, I can't grab this dude for shit." But yes, that info will be useful in later matches as I did forget that little nugget. I'm actually happy the match came out fairly decent as Air warned me about the possible lagging. The little pauses every few seconds or so, weren't caused by the beauty of WMM, that's pretty much how we played the match lol. However, most of us from the PS2 era aren't strangers to heavy lag during matches and the show must go on, so I wasn't going to let that get in the way. We almost couldn't even connect at first, but turning off entrances seems to help. Air figured that one out, so kudos to him. I felt bad for Air, because I could tell he was trying so hard to set-up his finisher and due to the lag, it just wouldn't come out right. A series of moves would end with us just looking at each other like, "Um... should you do something now... or should I like punch you?" None the less, I almost got my comeback on to steal one, but it wasn't meant to be. Once Air switches his ISP, I wouldn't mind facing him again :P
