Ahahahahaha, now that I have your attention, the title is a lie.
Pietriots.com is a venture started by the Aussies that you know and love from NWR (well, the cool ones, the others aren't around anymore). We reminisce about the failure that was the Aussie thread every day, and we've been scheming from the day that thread died to create a domain where we can post whatever we want. The Aussie board was fine for a while but now we're looking to venture into the domain of shenanigans and ribaldry.
Its currently being run off my internet connection so if you hit it hard enough I reckon it will fall over. Trust me, its very easy to throttle an Aussie connection - the kangaroos can only run so fast when they've got packets in their pouch. If you guys are interested in interacting with us on a regular basis (we've got a lot of ideas to unveil, most of which will be posted directly on the site rather than this thread) then post here and let us know. Currently we can't be bothered with opening up the place to your Joe Gas Station users but if there is enough interest then we're more than happy to bring on the masses.
I'll give you guys a bit of a teaser: the Pokemon Tour is heading around Australia in early July. Yes, a NAL event. As rare as it is (four years -
Termin8 covered it), it certain is a controversial event. Well, there's not as much snaking, but you know what I'm talking about. Like that guy who pulls out an ice move on the hope of freezing and pulls it off. Yeah, that kind of bullshit.
So that is our venture. Initially it is not going to compete with the likes of NWR (lawl we don't want to moderate forums) or GoNintendo (we don't want to be bearded baldies and have no life at all) or even IGN (although I still want to punch Cam Shea in the face - oops, Aussie joke). But we're going to have some fun with it - talking about things other than games is definitely on the cards.
PS: I'm aware of the rules regarding advertising. But considering I'm not some sort of fly-by-night poster and that the Pietriots are better than any of the other spammers that have frequented recently (except for Garmin guy, he wasn't from here but he was highly amusing!). So do your worst, because the cost-benefit analysis I did for this post over a few beers indicated there was nothing to lose!
EDIT:
In my wisdom I didn't even add in a link to click. What's up with that? Its been fixed right
hereAnd I expect the other Pietriots to come out endorsing this site, maybe they'll tease you further with information. Or maybe not!
