Thanks for letting everyone know what Rufus likes to jerk off to, modpud. I'm sure this valuable information will make the headlines any day now.

I think it's wrong to judge somebody for liking something as cute as My Little Pony. I think if Captain Toad met Pinkie Pie, then they would be friends.

I've been playing a little over the past few days. Normal 12v12 drops are horrible garbage, CW is mostly boring punctuated by a few relatively interesting fights. We are also really bad at it.

I'm totally okay with people liking my little pony but I'm not a big fan of "brony culture" or whatever

I know a heck of a lot about rufus because he had been banned from an internet relay chat channel a few days before I joined it, and I ended up joining in the middle of a conversation about him and what an awful person he is, punctuated by a picture of him. It's hard to forget a thing like that

Not only a dominions modder but a dominions lets play superstar, which I'm sure we can all agree is far far worse

Someone told me that there are word of lowtax people who don't think I'm actually very good, that I just cherrypick solo queue screenshots or something, so here's my stats for every mech that I've driven around for more than an hour(because I'm incredibly insecure)



The only things that I've solo queued in for more than a round or two are the timber wolves, dire wolves(although I haven't solo queued a whole lot in either wolf, they're just what I mostly played when I had just gotten back into the game and had some serious teething problems), and firestarters(which I still haven't solo queued in very often, because playing this game by yourself is not very fun). Everything else is group queue, mostly with 1-3 KDR friends(although I did take part in a 12 person group that rolled steel jaguars 3 matches in a row last night, not that I did particularly well in them because they made me drive a thunderbolt 5ss instead of a mech that is more my style)

It's really messed up that CW stats aren't tracked, my thunderbolt 9S murdersprees have been completely absurd. CW is maybe the dumbest loving thing(and also not very fun outside of the making-people-mad-about-colours-on-a-map-that-don't-even-matter meta)

What IRC? Illuminate me oh massive loather of LRMs to a level even the biggest autists don't have. :precious:

Nice to know even mocking your LRM rage causes enormous butthurt in you to the point you have to look up nearly 4 year old IRC logs some other tryhard good wasted their time hunting down.

If that is what friendly (ish) ribbing causes you to do I can only imagine what actual mean spirited stuff would cause out of you. Let's not take Internet Grindy Robots so seriously ok?

I really don't know why we are all having cares about how good people are at internet robots, but as someone that has dropped in matches with modpud, yes, she is probably one of the best goons playing right now.

I literally just googled "ponygoons tumblr", and then clicked the link and scrolled down a little. You make it seem like a really high effort thing, I was pretty sure it was you because I remember checking up on this in a previous thread

I'm glad that if I'm solo dropping I'm cheating my stats because it's easy to do well in the solo queue, but if I'm playing in group queue I'm still cheating, because I have friends to play with who aren't completely incompetent like people in the word of lowtax

I'm also glad that the thunderbolt 9s is a "meta mech", when I'm one of the people who made the meta

This really isn't true though, gaussapult and menturion especially weren't mechs that originated in the word of lowtax, although people probably pretend that's the case these days because the word of lowtax has always been pretty isolated from the rest of the MWO community(for better and worse)

Garbage like the large laser atlas DDCs and lawesomes though, sure, probably

But yeah it's Good Stuff, especially for a group that(used to at least) pride itself in running optimal builds and being so above the brown sea

I'm glad someone saw that post, originally it was going to literally just be weird masturbatory injokes for the benefit of KDR, but then I hosed with it a ton and it became less good(although it did get me called racist in the first response), and then I restarted my computer and lost the tab and couldn't find it anymore.

Look, I know you're great at destroying robots and all, but I think the 9S meta sort of came about when PGI announced some new quirks and people noticed that it got a loving bonkers 50% ERPPC heat reduction. You're not the only one brainy enough to realize that putting ERPPCs on the thing will suddenly be good.
