No, but once got my engineers to buff my Squid's engines, then burned moonshine.  We were on dunes.  I swear we went across half the map in a second.

Have you ever done that?

No and I don't want to do that. Mainly because I am the main engie most of the time. Moonshine and Hwatchas are my arch nemesises (or whatever the plural of nemesis is).

Why do people just keep burning moonshine? Because it is mathematically impossible to keep the engines fixed.

Nobody should constantly burn it.  You should only ever use it in bursts.

Do you not like high speeds Hus?

I don't dislike high speed, I just value the 4 light engines lives more than the captain being able to go "brum brum I 'm so fast." You can use moonshine appropriately on any ship as long as it's not the squid.

Will you object to being murderized by me if you ever are on a squid with me as main and you using 'shine?

Yes I would, and my objection would be to burn hydrogen too, so that both the engines and the balloon die.

I suggest a mobula.
Or any ship high enough to warrant the use of dropping like a sack of potatoes.
...mmm...potatoes...


If I was moving backwards at full speed.
Then decided I needed to go forward quickly...
Would burning moonshine allow me to change that better than kerosene or is it dependent on the ship type?

Moonshine is better, the answer is always moonshine.
Faster, better, drunker.

Doesn't really matter. Sometimes I feel the need for asking a proper question and in other cases I want to be as retarded as possible when typing a silly question.

In any video game, what was the most brutal rage you ever had to experience?

On a general daily basis?

Heroes and generals as a Tanker.
You had many things against you every single game.
- overpowered Infantry Anti tank.
- Tanks handled like drunk Russians with their cars.
- a lack of a proper armor system.
- every single thing on the battlefield could obstruct a tank. Like a wooden fence. Or tiny rock.
- limited tank spawns.
- Infuriating Maintenance costs everytime you died.
- limited view to first person. Which wouldn't be so bad if getting shot out of the tank wasn't punished so harshly.


Worst rage ever?
War thunder. As tier 5 tanker.

I actually started a fight with my brother from dying to a T54 spam.
Something I hadn't done in 12 years.
No joke.

So. What is YOUR worst rage. In...anything really?

My brother's an asshole, so it gets a lot to make me rage, since his behaviour helped me gain a lot more self control.
Some of the most stupid times I raged were:

I was playing Pokemon platinum some(/many?) years ago, I had to defeat the same Gym Leader 6 times because I forgot to save after I was done playing for 4 times, and the remaining two because my Nintendo DS ran out of power mid-fight.
The DS flew across the room and crash landed on the wall.
Surprisingly enough it was still functioning.

Planetside 2:
I played as the New Conglomerate, because I liked their ideology and their BFGs that had a lot of dakka, I died 7 times, immediately after respawn because some betrayal shenanigans happened and everybody was friendly firing.
All the while we were under heavy siege by Vanu armoured corps.
The mouse was thrown into the air and flew across the room.
Crashlanded on the floor.
It exploded, like pieces flying around.
Hysterical laughters were had.

I was translating a story from Ancient Greek:
Nothing had sense,I was tired, very stressed, hadn't been sleeping well all the week.
I threw both my book and my notebook in the air. My brother was passing by, attracted by my acculturated tantrum, the flying book hit him in the belly, the notebook in the nuts.
He acted like he died after a critical hit and I just facepalmed.

That should be all from my part I think.

No, wait.
Iremember, once at a school party I was waiting to get something to eat, a guy started bothering my brother. I told him to stop, he insulted me, I kept telling him to stop and fuck off, he kept insulting me and my brother.
Then I called him "faggot".
He answered "So I like your mother."
'A famiglia nun se tocca.
I gain multiple knightly levels of raging stupidity is someone insults my family, so I answered to that offence very knightly.
I punched him in the face, and then kept punching him 'till some moderators came and dragged me away.
We were roughly the same size, but he was more robust.
Laughs were had.

Now, this is some nice topic to get some stories, so...

What are your worst rage moments in-and-outside of gaming?

In Starcraft 2, its when I accidentally select all my workers and pull them off the mineral and vespene gas lines.
In real life its when I ask someone a "what if" question and they say "that wouldn't happen though".



Can you figure out where my forum profile picture came from?

Oh definitely, that is from a YouTube animator
Called um...
Carbotanimations I believe.

Now I can't tell what that little guy is specifically. I'm debating between a Ghost from Starcraft or a Spacemarine from Warhammer as guesses
Of course I bet you will correct me in another...hour or so.


So. Who is that little guy?

Always ready to correct! :P

The unit is the Reaper from StarCraft 2. Also, nice job on the animator, didn't think anyone would get it.
The episode where I got the picture was here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWsT09BEvx4

Primarily it's anime and game channels.

Because...that's what I am.
People like lost pause, the anime man, markiplier, jacksepticeye, einshine, thepropagandacast akidearest, mistychronexia.

But...if you also count my music channels, it's vocaloids, nightcore, and quite possibly heavy metal soon.


YouTube. Just YouTube.
What is on YouTube for ya?

Except the absolutely shitty videos in the "what's hot" section?
Music videos, principally of Two Steps From Hell (the name's quite edgy, but the music is good).
Gaming videos, mainly of Dark Souls and various RTS games.
Also some other more niche channels.

[Gotta love Carbot animations, my fav video from him will always be Stracraft 2:ZvZ]

Who called in the fleet?
