Dude, you gotta retire "OOT Elite" already. Good writeup though and a good fit imo

All,

apologies on the recent shite with respect to writeups. As bowens mentioned I was gone all weekend and this week had my dad in town + started a temp job that has 2+ 2 banned . I could half ass them now but write them up good tomorrow, as our esteemed picks and (posting coach) deserves. They will be up in time for Did's lunch.

FWIW, I don't like the PITTM pick. He is "interesting" I guess in that he will fly off the handle and argue passionately on a wide variety of inconsequential ********. However, I feel with the exception of the survivor thread, none of his posting was enjoyable. His posts tend to make my eyes bleed. He's a lot closer to Tiedup with a short fuse than he is an elite foil.

for clarifications sake, clock officially turns off at 9pm leaving me a little less than an hour tomorrow morning if need be, right?

27,

Solid choice. LM (like cardo, bruiser, etc) is one of those unique talents and a pick that can't really be criticized. This adds a bit of crazy weird degeneracy to the forum that it really needed.

I just spent more time than I should have looking for FFK's "Snookie" costume, because I was trying to figure out how microgirl was going to pull that one off.

ASU,

You've done this twice, so I'm not sure if it's a play on "pole/poll"- but it's ROLE FFS.

Edit: There are some great regs though! Like tuq... well, I was going to name a few more but they are UNDRAFTEDDDDDDD. Oh well.
You realize that harping constantly on that 20% makes for really bad posting?

LM is a great pick, was hoping he would fall. He brings great TR writing, exceptional karaoke and a unique style you aren't getting anywhere else. There are a lot of similar posters everyone will get one of soon, good job on a pick seperate from the pack.

My bad Dids, proof reading isn't exactly how I role.

I thought LMB would go way sooner, he is simply awesome. Maybe he deserves a slight penalty for lack of volume outside of his own TRs but he is rock solid and he cracks me the hell up.

LM is a really great pick. I would have enjoyed him on a hypothetical forum with istewart, who would probably just explode trying not to make all the obvious jokes.

Finally LM. Back when I was drinking he was in my top 5 posters I wanted to meet.

Creeper trip reports were awesome, but democratic event TRs were even better.

I think it is a mistake to assume that results for a small group would be at all similar to what you have now with everyone together.

totally aware of this. don't see what this has to do with it.

That she had arguably the best personal blog of any 2p2 poster ever (which is saying alot when you look at what Krusher, Dids, [undrafted], and [undrafted] pulled together)?
meh. iirc once 2p2 went over there, she made everything private.

Quote:
That she inflamed the hearts and minds of some of the best posters in OOT in a way we've not seen since she left?
certainly true. that still doesn't dissuade me from thinking that half her value is on reputation alone. it may also be that these threads are goddamn boring apart from her trolling and being trolled.

re: LM - solid pick, was wondering who was going to take him. he kinda does his own thing, but his own thing can be rather entertaining

Re-reading bumped Cardo dramabomb.

Man UNDRAFTEDpimp really was a piece of work. I'm pretty sure he still owes money to a lot of people, and also pretty sure he lied about ever playing poker higher than like 5/10. He used to rail 100/200 when it was the biggest game running and talk like he was prepping to take a shot. That guy, was not a very good guy imo.

Elaine's blog was the source for many roffles between UNDRAFTED and I for a while after she left 2p2. Her story about her treatment by some airline is one of the most unhinged, insane things I've ever read from somebody I know to be a real person. Like I've met and interacted with UNDRAFTED, and it makes no ****ing sense whatsoever that he would marry somebody capable of any part of that story.
