Uh, you do realize that both sheek and Trash bore that tag well before you did, right?

200 brofists on Menk

Fuck it, I'll bet the 1000 brofists I've gotten from the goddamn Gamergate thread on Menk.

I know that. Why do you think I'm reacting the way I am?

If DU allowed it I would be trying to take your tag, but his rules don't work that way so at best I can only give you mine. Prove you aren't a quitter and accept my challenge.

for hiver if Menck wins.

zerotol's posts are really useful for quickly finding the tag pictures

edit:

OP said:
Note: I am only accepting tag transference. Meaning to bet a tag, you must have the tag you are betting.

oh shit, new rules? N
evermind then, I'll try to think of something better. But there's no one I care about unbanning (those I'd like to have been self-ejected) and just betting brofists is a waste... :(

Just a friendly reminder to everyone that DarkUnderlord wrestles Djinns for entertainment. Go over your bets and hold them up against what he wrote in OP. Anyone trying to get cute with their interpretation (EG: Asking for more than 1 person to be (un)banned in a single condition or transferring tags they don't actually have) are begging for DU to dole out creative punishments or ignoring them altogether.

This is a hard one. I don't know how good DU is at games. Menck always struck me as a psycho gun collector so he's probably quite good at UT. And yeah... as someone mentioned... Menck could just throw the match. Can't really police that.

Bah, the last condition (must have the tag you're betting) turned this into a glorified game of musical chairs.

edit: I know! hiver, come bet your dumbfuck or white knight tags against me. Choose your champion, I don't mind. If you lose, you get the Advertising Plant avatar, which is just as appropriate for you. I want some excitement!

:slamdunk:

Come on and slam!

So who's going to host this? With one contestant being in Oz and the other in Kwa, someone is in for lag. It may be the deciding factor on where a smart bro should bet his fistings.
I can already tell you that regardless of whom hosts it, I'll be lagging. I'll be playing on a laptop using a mobile phone as a hotspot, which is plugged into an aerial that points at a mobile phone tower over 4 km away.

I average about 300 ms ping on any online game. Even Minecraft only ever has me at 2 bar with occasional disconnects.

Speaking of which, if I should disconnect, I'll have to re-join. We'll have to keep track of scores if that happens.

DarkUnderlord, what is your Unreal Tournament experience?
I played a lot of Instagib CTF against bots in UT2k4.

If I even agree to participate I want my fists + crispy battle bet fists restored. I have no interest in the Awor simulator game, so that would give me incentive.

Un-prosperization if Menk wins.

All my brofists on Menck

I'm assuming this won't be fixed in any way otherwise I will want my bet nulled.

I can't believe I missed this and the previous duelling thread. This is the best thing I've ever seen on this forum, and I hope it becomes a regular thing.

Oh right, I think I don't have much of anything to vote, so I'm just going to be a very passive spectator. Still going to have a lot of fun though!

Well with 300ms on a online shooter it's not going to be much of a competition

This is why I think it's a setup. Menck is going to throw it.

There are ways to increase your ping so both parties have the same baseline. Should be a standard measure for a high-stakes contest like this one.

Best thing you've seen in three months? JEEPERS!
You do realize that I can read most of this forum without an account right? And I did read some of it a while ago before joining.
What I don't realize is why that aging 5 out of 10 Irenaeus brofisted your post.
