    Oh......oh Lexi........I don't even........

    Here. This will help.

    Also, you can dig through my "awesome" posts to find the story of why I picked it as my avatar. It's in the "Tell me a story" thread.

    They say that selection is random but with @Zerzhul competing this year, I have to agree with @EvilBadman.

    The one piece of advice I have for all competitors that was given to me when I was an omeganaut is to remember that for the first half of the competition, you don't need to win, just don't lose.

    I'm a little jealous. I wish I'd gotten to play Zombie Dice when I was a 'naut! Lucky folks this year, it's a great looking set. =D

    I'm just going to suggest that any of the newest Omeganauts who are looking for advice from grizzled (slightly crusty) old veterans should come join our facebook group. I *believe* can add people, so message me your facebook details. MAN that sounds scammy.

    Previous 'Nauts will be there. Watching. JUDGING.

    Also, there is a free drink from me to anyone who pulls a perfect game in Zombie Dice. That means not a single shotgun blast.

    Congrats to this year's tributes! May the odds be ever in your favor.

    Sir, the possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field perfect game of zombie dice is approximately one million one hundred nineteen thousand seven hundred and forty four to one.

    SOMEBODY else here has had a Probability class.

    At those odds, I'll buy my own drink, thank you. ;)

    Looking forward to meeting errybody at the big dance. Oh! I do the Twitter thing too, @aaronlinde.

    If I can go the entire game of Kerplunk without a single marble, then someone can do it with Zombie Dice. You don't even have to win, just not be eliminated :P

  • contrefaitcontrefait Registered User regular
    Best advice ever. I was close to losing at Bomberman but I was able to eek out 3rd out of 4th and went and found the 1st place guy to let him take me out instead of trying to win and give the other guy a chance to surpass me.

    If I had an extra $300 I'd do one of those custom coin prints. Kind of like an achievement coin for a perfect chance game, then just donate them to Khoo to hand out.

    Yeah man, fate kinda looked at you this prime and went "You want time? Well fuck you, that's how much time you'll have."

    Good luck with the Omegathon! Show them how tough Alphanauts are (well the ones that lived).

    To all Omeganauts: I got the reservation at the bar I wanted. We'll meet for happy hour, 3:00pm - 6:00pm, on Thursday, August 29. All current and past Omeganauts are welcome, as well as +1s. Private message me with your email and I'll send out the details to everyone in a couple of days. I can't wait to see you all!

  • DuelLadySDuelLadyS Registered User regular
    Is there a time limit to rsvp? I won't know until maybe 2 days beforehand if I'll be working during the meetup time or not. (Fingers crossed!)

  • beyondcelerybeyondcelery Registered User regular
    @DuelLadyS: So far, it doesn't look like we're going to push our numbers too high for the venue. It's okay if you won't know until right before; I'll put you down for tentative. Hope you can make it! = )

    Got the confirm today (Bugged them to give me a schedule early)- I've been mid-shifted Thursday and will be unable to attend :( You all will just have to have extra fun for me, OK?
