Going through a load of old threads getting nostalgic. Nice to see people were moaning back then as well :pDifferent people though...

JUst.... just ....DAMN THAT WAS AWESOME.DAT CLIFFHANGER DAMN
No... that was just mean
Just dropped into this thread to say "hi" to all the oldies. Why this thread? Because I also wanted to let you know that my firstborn (son), now 4 weeks old, is called Fitz...
/me crawls back into the shadows...

I'm expecting to wake up by being scratched to fuck, and to find the cat has pooped somewhere stupid.
As mentioned on FB: ON YOUR FACE!
J/k, hi all. See there's still a load of legends hanging around here? Good to see that :-)
-
Blackbird still exists!After stumbling back here, I've come to the conclusion that I kinda miss it.
Like I ever could just "vanish" ;-)
How's life double-D?
I certainly remember you, BlackbirdStill love you too Roady. Recently popped in on IRC, but there was almost no-one there. Just me and g9icy :-/

And I made that sig for Rizz, you just erased my name and put yours over it and made it purple :PNoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
It was such a great plan back then...
-
shit me, you have all my old names in that post... I remember the brief period I was Khun-T but I don't remember using those sigs O_oI can remember that name giving some "discussion" ;-)
@Rummy: don't worry. These were just the sigs I hosted. I think pdhq64 had a few more.

j7wicked (a.k.a. "je*d*ck7")
Khun-t (don't pronounce this…)
Kigan (somehow he kept coming back, no matter how much we pushed him)
Kopo (still mad at me mate?)
Limkayo
Lyndis
Master Skyline
Master Tim (founder)

Various other images
Captain CE
Once there was an unofficial "Design a mascot for Cube-Europe"-contest. In this match, Captain-CE (seen below) went through some fierce battles with Manny the (Sniper) Slug and some Laundromat 3000. He lost though
Topping on Master Tim's birthday cake
Master Tim was always on about how great Cube-Europe was. We (his close friends and fellow students) decided to give Tim a chocolate birthday-cake with a little extra: a photo printed on top of it:
(we actually ate the cake afterwards...)
Ninja-lightning
Someone once asked me to do this to his picture. Can't remember who though... Some ninja apparently.
The C-E Elite
A few of the people who were there from the start once got a special 'tag': CE Elite. Some people disliked this 'privilege, which led to some chaos. Nonetheless, I still think the tag and the image that came with it were pretty nice to those around very long:

It all started something like this, only with the text "Blackbird's Vengeance" written in the center. Why "Vengeance", one might ask? Because the image was taken from the GameBoy Advance's game "Batman's Vengeance".
After about a year of having the same sig, I made the one below to wish everyone a happy 2003...
That one lasted for almost an entire year, with people starting to complain about the "best wishes" somewhere in October. Hence the wait began, and I introduced the following sig as a placeholder and build up tension:
And on the first of January 2004, the following sig was finally revealed:
Of course people weren't happy with such enhancements to the original, accusing me of being "somewhat lazy". In 2005 the true nature of the sticky note was revealed: they had been looking at the 2005-edition ALL YEAR without knowing (becuase of the sticky of course)
After that, I decided it was time for some change. Within that last year (2005), the following sigs made their entrance:
and
...and finally, ever year at Christmas I'd throw in this one for a few days:
Bstmte
Chris (Shorty?)
Christian
Coo in the Zoo
Cube-Game
Darkcloud
Devil In Love
Falco Lombardi
Fried_egg_on_toats
James, later a.k.a. "Stranger"

this cannot be Blackbird, for he has no extremely out dated "happy new year" sig?
Odd I acually don't remember this video, must have appeared during one of my month/6week/10week long holidays... might also explain when I'm not in it
Oi, I actually still have that one online mind you... as are about 30 other sigs I made for myself and other people back in the days. If anyone's interested I can throw them in a thread for old-time's sake. Think I've got some j7wicked-stuff there too, as are the "stay-tuned-for-BB's-new-sig"-sigs
Best thing to happen to the internet.
You mean.... you're that Numa-Numa-guy? Pleased to meetcha too

How is everything in your life anyway? All good I hope Hopefully you're kept away from us because you're too busy rather than...wait...you've read some of ReZ's posts haven't you? In order:
- good
- indeed busy... living together, fulltime job (which REALLY takes more than the 40 hours they say and pay for), etc. No babies yet, although Tim having one kinda made me aware of my age...
- ReZ... who?
-
Wow, didn't expect that many replies of people still around actually (neither that fast!)
Life's a bit different for me nowadays, leaving me with too little time unfortunately. I'll try to pop in every now and then though.
Now I only wonder who Sexual Chocolate is

Most people around here might've never seen me before, and why should you? I haven't been around for about... say... 4 years? To be honest, I never really experienced N-Europe as... well... N-Europe. For those still interested in who I might've been in the past: my roots here lie somewhere in the era of n64europe.com and cube-europe.com, been a moderator (and later an admin) on these boards when they were still on XSOrbit, ran a little subdomain of the site and a weekly feature back when the GameBoy Advance was introduced and idled in #cube-europe (IRC, Quakenet) a lot (sometimes with a few op-rights). But enough about me.
Here's for the more interesting part for those who happened to know me in the past and are still around. I cleaned up my harddrive tonight and found a little video that was once posted on these forums. Can't remember who exactly was performing in this, but my guess is either dabookerman or mr_odwin (sorry if I got this one wrong). I've uploaded it to
, so feel free to check it out... for nostalgic reasons.(sorry... never used the youtube-tags. We didn't have those "back in my time")

All the while wankers are sitting there in their Ivory Towers wagging their fingers and saying "You should have been more careful" and other useless bullcrap, implying yet again that the woman is the victim of another heartless man intent only on sexual gratification.Can't speak for everyone here, but for me it's more like a "only have sex with those you'd want to go further with". Accidents happen, which can leave you with nasty problems otherwise.
Moria: no matter how you say it, the other one will never know for sure why you two got together: because of an accident, or because the other one finally noticed your (inner) beauty (*gasp*). I for one would not be a happy man if I were living with such doubts

Get her to take a pregnancy test and show you it before going any further.....Oh com'on. You can't possibly be serious about that one. If anything could give out the signal "Sorry, but I don't really want you but hey, in case it turns out you're really pregnant, I'll give in", that would be it.
Dieter, whatever you two decide to do, treat her with respect. You took a gamble sleeping with someone you don't really 'love', now deal with the consequences. (not saying you're not, by the way)
Anyhow: happy 2008
And that was my brief appearance for 2008, I guess...

so... I already died say 2 years ago, right?

Nintendo is known for releasing quarterly schedules. The Q4 titles are (except for the co-junction title with SEGA) all non-Nintendo titles (although I believe Nintendo is distributing Harvest Moon in Europe). Most likely the Q4 titles are filled in in a few months.
-
First of all, half the games that have already confirmed release dates are wrong on the list, many are on there twice, some games have already been released in Europe...Hate to break this for you then, but it seems that the Swedish Nintendo site decided to put up the very same list (which isn't very strange as I got the list through an employee at Bergsala
)Now for the already-released titles: Phoenix Wright took almost a year to be released in Germany and other european countries. Localized versions often take more time.
-
Beware of DS-x2's fake Europe release list.And why would it be fake?
-
If it were elitist, how could people like mcj, Bogbas, Kano and Rummy be allowed in?

No, we're saying that you can't expect the N-Europe staff to have any saying in #cube-europe (nor vice versa) and trying to take away the idea that #cube-europe is for N-Europe visitors.
I guess 60% of the people in #cube-europe are no longer visitors around here. We're just people who got in a few years ago and stuck around.

Cube-Europe, ex name of N-Europe, has nothing to do with N-Europe despite the recent changes to the MPT directed us in there.And there we've got mistake number 1: not reading the FAQ. I quote:
Welcome to #cube-europe. This channel was founded by Schpickles and g9icy to give the many Cube-Europe.com readers and forum users somewhere to have "live chat" easily. If you are new to irc in general, or maybe just to this channel, could you please take a few moments to read this FAQ, and take note of the general conventions of the irc channel.Schpickles and g9icy were never part of the Cube-Europe or N-Europe staff (although Schpickles did write a few columns). The irc-channel #cube-europe was made as a meeting place, not as an official channel in addition to the site and/or boards. Access to the room is a privilege, not a right.
Cube-Europe.com and N-Europe are using the channel, yes. But does that make the channel 'official'? No, it doesn't. I can link to google.com, does that make that my property? Again, no it doesn't.
The irc-channel is and will always remain not-affiliated with the powers that be in here. There may, or may not, be people who've got saying in both.
PS. Hi to all who remember me...

You mean "...by Happenstance", right? I replied on a thread that was still on page 1 at the time.
Other than that, even though there are 3 pages listed in this thread, only the first two actually appear. Little forum bug?
[edit]
ah great... so my new post is actually the first on page 3, meaning that it showed 3 pages before there actually were 3 pages (unless there's a secret hidden post in here somewhere, which would actually defy the whole idea of being a secret hidden post as the pagecount would still prove that there is a hidden post.
