Insanity Contest
« on: July 28, 2010, 05:26:11 PM »
I think we need to keep the Insanity train rolling.

So here is a little contest.

A high-score contest of sorts.

5 lucky weeners will get I'm Insane for Insanity copies of Insanity.  Scribbled on by yours truly.  You can then love them, burn them, ebay them for a retarded sum, or be like "I don't want that crap, keep it"

All you have to do is the following:

Play the game in predator mode, and see how far you get.

To get to predator mode, hold one of the 4 cardinal directions down while pressing Run to start the game.

I am not telling you which direction to press, only because now you get to try them all and see the other hidden stuff: Arcade Mode, HyperMode (good luck), and an early Pyramid Plunder Prototype!

:)

To prove you are playing Predator mode, either:

1) film the whole thing with a camera and upload it to youtube! (cutting the video if you manage longer than 10 minutes)
2) Play in Ootake and use the video recording option and send me the file or use some other PC video recording thing and YouTube the video!
3) Take pictures (pause it or something) or Screenshots in an emulator.  You can pause it when you get shot and killt that last time and see your final score before the screen blacks out.

It is sort of lurpy, since theres that whole "I forgot to deal with high scores" thing, but I think we're all smart enough to handle it!

and the good news is, the Retrocade has highscore stuff.  No forgetting this time.

Keep checking Aetherbyte.com for news on the Retrocade.  Pyramid plunder is turning out excellent thanks to new graphical work.  No more of my crappy artwork. :D

RoyVegas, if you're reading this, you are barred from the competition.  Any entry you make will be laughed at, and deleted.

Ah, excellent idea.  I'll start practicing for this...


And damn, reminds me, I (temporarily, hopefully) lost my copy of Insanity soundtrack...  I put it in one of the boxes during my recent move, but I can't seem to find it now... :cry:

Using an electron microscope I was able to read your fine print in your first post, Arkhan.

Don't worry Ark, I made enough profit on your games to not need any more.  While you take your petty little shots at me, in the end I'm the one who's laughing.  :wink:

I'd be curious since you seem to be at a point you don't mind admitting you exploited people, were you ever actually really into collecting the Turbos or was it all a calculated effort to make some money?

I think at one time he generally enjoyed collecting/playing the Turbo, but caught the 'buy/sell bug' in the process, and now he can't stop. It's the thrill of the chase plus the thrill of the money that can be made. Even if he breaks even it'll be worth it to him. These are just my opinions.

Have Windy and Oldskool answer that, their local, hang out with me, and they know me off of the computer.

There isn't a whole lot of point in really answering questions at all.  Anything I say will be picked apart, bashed and the theorys will come out left and right no matter what I say.  So if Wind and Oldskool care to answer so be it, as what I have to say doesn't matter anyway.
All is well. :)

not really, I'm laughing my ass off.

I make what you made off hocking my games and gouging some others....and by exploiting a community in a single paycheck basically. 

Therefore I have mad skrill and party like it's 1999er and don't have to hock my games and look like a giant sack of dicks to a bunch of people.  Keep in mind you were all "ooh woe is me, I'm just a wittle baby collector.  I needs my games.  Here look I made a collector reference.  Love me please."

So when I am your age, I won't be selling all my toys and looking like an ass to take care of my jacked up mess of a life. 

How is it a month before your Hockathon, you blew money on that Turbo kiosk.  Are we gonna see that on ebay next?   You must have really been forward-thinking about your family situation when you were making your e-dick grow with eBay purchases! 

And let us not forget, you put that huge collection on a credit card and wanted me to hand you all the money for it asap so you could cover interest!

"The idea was to buy it and resell quickly for a profit" is what you said to me.

You're not exactly mr. moneybags after all it seems!

All of that "YOU ALL JUST JALOUSE BECAUSE I HAVE MONEY TO SPEND ON TOYS" crap was just a front for your poor life managing abilities!

It's pretty sad you have to profit off of a community homebrew effort to buy a house.  That just means you blow too much at life to make money in legit ways.

Meanwhile, I actually have real cash (made the real way: via hard work, motivation, and a kick ass college edumacation) to blow on toys.  and I can and will do so :)   I just did even!  and I still had some left to donate to boob cancer.  We gotta save those glorious B(.Y.)Bs man.

Funny, Windy told me that what you did is pretty stupid and shitty.   and why should they have to answer for your disaster?  Back your own ass up, peckerwood.


now kindly gtfo.  You are worthless and a complete disgrace to the PCE.

Lots of talk, I love how you throw all this flash up about you make this and that for a paycheck.  When you wanted to buy my extra shit you were whining about how you hadn't even got a paycheck yet and you needed to buy new figure skating roller skates first(oops you told me not to mention that, I can see why).  By now you have gotten what maybe 3 paychecks?

I'm not sure where you pull this "messed up life" out of your hat.  I live just fine.  If buying a house and selling off video games I don't need gives me a messed up life maybe you should check your priorities.  As buying a house is far more important than toys.  I didn't sell it all because I had to, I sold it because it made buying a house easier with no bills (which are all now paid off).  I know this is hard to understand for a young guy like you all full of piss and vinegar.

Most people save and plan for years to buy a house.  I decided to do it in a week and was pre-approved for a home loan.  That's why the need to sell everything so fast.

Thats because you were selling your collection before I had started getting paid since HErpeRpp DUEHRP.  ITS A NEW JOB!   It's not whining.  It's "yeah I'm interested, but you have to wait until the money exists."  I know it's coming, but I can't speed up time just because I want to buy stuff.

That doesn't process in your head though. :) You just charge to credit and ask questions later!  then resell stuff for lolfail prices to fix the debt.

I have other things to spend money on besides your stuff.  Like my bomb-ass 1200$ rollerskates.  So, sending you 2500$ all at once didn't seem too wise.  buying 2500$ worth of TG-16 games doesn't take priority over needing new rollerskates to compete, or buying new guitar stuff to rock out with my cock out.. :D 

Giving you a piece at a time seemed legit until your sudden urgency to buy a house.  Now I am glad I held off from sending you 2500$ all at once since you turned out to be a backstabbing penis-feeler.

I've gotten 4 paychecks so far. :) All the glorious cash went to other more worthy people.  good ol' Opethian for example.  and some people in the Netherlands who have some awesome imports.  For fair pricing mind you. :)  Even though the one seller is hard up for money, he still puts his friends in the community above that and doesn't shaft them for personal gain.

SOMETHING YOU FAILED TO DO.

Hey, if you go from LOL I AM THE ALPHA COLLECTOR. YOU AM ALL JEALIS OF MY COLLECTION AND MONEY to OMG FIRE SALE. NEED HOUSE.  FAMILY FIRST MAN, in a week, it sure makes you look like you've got problems goin on.  What, your current casa de fail isn't good enough?

Planning is something you don't seem to do so good.  One day you'll run out of things to sell and be like AW DAMN.

Now, this is not the thread for this, so shut your mouth and go away.  Start a new thread if you want to continue this line of discussion.

This is for the contest your are banned from being a part of.

Dont throw up the camouflage Roy and make out your such a good guy.... you screwed these forum communities and ran with there stuff to ebay, not even giving anyone a chance to buy the stuff here.
Look at all the post you have here looking for stuff... and the help you have received... real nice guy Roy, real nice.
