HAHA Suckers IT'S A TRAP!

You're the n00bs around here now and we want to give you a proper hazing. I guess Karl and Evan are off the hook now, so make yourselves known.

Any new NWR staff member who doesn't introduce himself to our crew of forum regulars is LESS THAN A MAN.

this thread is deadly serious. SRSLY

What do you mean, "off the hook?" Jeez people, I've been here for like three years. I've got seniority over almost half the staff now.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #6 on:** July 26, 2007, 12:33:13 PM »

I really don't understand that either.. it would be nice if we actually had staffers who were part of the community before. The only one I can think of who was hired is Pale.

S-U-P-E-R · « **Reply #13 on:** July 26, 2007, 07:27:55 PM »

Requesting internet stalking to make sure none of the new hires are furries or psychos or Tim Rogers

Shouldn't the NWR Personnel department be doing that sort of thing? Let's see if we can get Vudu on the job...

That's the arrangement me and Jonny had, is that I would stalk all the potentials over the internet after the last time we picked up a couple psychos. I was busy and Windy didn't know about this, so we unfortunately missed it this time.

We totally turned down one guy a year or two ago because he appeared to be insane based on his internet journal that I found

Real Aussies don't get caught in traps.

Seriously, where have you been hiding? You need to get in touch with some locals.

Yes. That is true.

But I am not fully Australian (there's no such thing but I'm less so)
I'm a mix bag of a lot of nationalities.

As a matter of fact, my housemate has it. I would borrow and review it if he did not spend all his time at it... yelling and screaming in frustration as the game is extremely cheap at times. There are moves which make you practically un-touchable. Not to mention the lag at other points. How's that for a short review my friend. Hehe. Naw. It seems like a very good. GOOD. GOOD. Maybe not great, not bad, GOOD game. You will not be dissapointed. It is Mario Strikers. ^_^

There's a difference between "OMGWTFBBQ" posters and "I call bullshit on that" posters. You'll work it out. But you'll have to stick to your guns no matter what so make sure you write a review that you can back up.

Hmm does this make Case another Pietriot? And aren't we already over our quota on Australian forum goers?

Pietriot?
I dun even know what that means. ^_^;

And as far as the Poketour was concerned, wasn't worth going. I knew there was going to be nothing. No Battle Revolution, no worthy demos. Although, my housemate did win the Western Australian day 2 thing.

But yes. I did not see it worthy of me being there.

I am also very lazy. ^_^

Welcome all new NWRers. It does stink that none of us in the "family" made it. Though I'm sure things will run their course in due time. Now again I ask why was there no article welcoming the new hires? I lot of us here were really wanting to know when it happened and who. Thats a disservice to your community right there. Super aren't you suppose to be in charge of keeping us misfits happy and in line?

Aww gawd... o.o
How intimidating... I honestly don't want to write any reviews for anything now with everyone like 'omg! lets all pwn the aussie O_O'

Hehehe, naw. I can't wait to review something. I haven't really found a game that hasn't got a awesome review already or that I have.. I mean, I'm tempted to do one on Resident Evil... maybe Megaman ZX... or maybe even go further back just for lols (or lulz) ^_^.

I'm very fortunate. I will do reviews whenever asked but at the moment I basically have free choice....

Ceric · « **Reply #42 on:** July 27, 2007, 06:14:32 AM »

You should do a way back pre-VC review. Review something like Quantum Warrior or Lazlo's Leap.

That's because there's been no need for PR. Nintendo is doing it all for you. Ahh, sweet PR. What a job.

Oh, and the reason there hasn't been an announcement about the new staff is because Windy and I are still in negotiations. He doesn't want to have a Canadian work on staff and I'm threatening to cause an international incident if I'm not brought on. So, we'll see how this works out. Has there ever been any Canadian working on the staff? I can't recall there being one. Discremination I say.

So does this make it look like the new staff members should ask me about any questions they have, or does it look like n00bs should look to me for advice?

I don't know which one to masquerade as.

I almost think I should just say "PM S-U-P-E-R for free Pokemon!"
