NinkiCZ's Blog
Published on May 16, 2010 By OMG_NinkiCZ In Demigod

Welcome to our clan. We are the biggest and best clan in Demigod, and arguably the only clan with any hope of survival. What is our goal? To get games going without the ridiculous wait times, meet lots of cool people, and last but not least, have lots of fun. If you want a clan based on skill, you won't find one in this game.

Q: Are you the clan leader?

No, absolutely not. GM worked as a democracy, and the same deal goes here - majority rules. I am just your Public Relations (PR) guy. I have noticed that having a solid PR guy does keep the clan intact, and I have made sure I am pretty much accessible and visible as often as I can. I am on msn, xfire, skype, facebook and vent. If you need to find me, you probably will find me and of course I'll allow you to find me. Just ask if you're interested. 

Q: What is the recruitment process?

There is no recruitment process, we will accept anyone who wants to join. Just add the tag, hop onto vent, say Hi and I'll add you on here. If you want I can serenade your entrance to the clan with a song of your personal choice, but it must be Top 40.

Q: Are there any rules?

1. Be nice, be respectful of others. I understand trash talking is part of the game for some, but please don't extend it to something personal. It's just a game after all.

2. Unless there is an agreement among the players in the game, please play balanced games. I understand that completely balanced games are probably not possible at the moment, but try to make it as balanced as possible.

3. Have fun! 

If there are anymore questions, feel free to ask away!

 

Here are the current members of OMG (in alphabetical order):

 

OMG_awuffleablehedgie (a.k.a. OMG_BlackHatHedgehog)

So I used to refer to him as waffles, because I always thought his name was supposed to relate to waffles. Apparently, I was wrong. He's wuffleable - which means huggable apparently. I'm not sure how a hedgehog is huggable, but I guess it is in his world. Hedgie is his nickname, and he's probably the coldest person in this clan, but once you get used to his cold exterior, he turns out to be a really nice guy. He just has these awkward mood swings, where he's super energetic around 10pm EST, and then after 12am, he tends to be super cynical, and then after 3am he turns on his seductive bedroom voice. If you feel offended by him, don't be, because he's just a hedgehog. If you have any questions about any statistical stuff in Demigod, Hedgie knows all. It's actually kinda scary.

OMG_Blackmage (a.k.a. OMG_synnworld)

OMG-CaptainTaco

Taco was an important addition to the clan because he provides the comic relief for everyone. Just look for his posts and you will instantly know what I mean. He likes to describe himself as a terrible DG player, but he only says that just so his opponents will let their guard down and then Taco can strike. I always knew he was a sneaky guy, right when I saw his Pedobear avatar. As you can tell from his name, he loves Tacos but I'm not sure how strong that love is. In fact, none of us really know if his love for Tacos is stronger than tacoguy's. That is a question up for further discussion.

OMG_Defenz

A player from Vancouver. That's all I really know so far but if you're Canadian then that automatically makes you cool.

OMG-dontforgetyourpeanuts

I have a feeling this guy is loaded.

OMG_Epiphenomenon

Epi is what we all call him, so I suppose that's his nickname. He's the brains of the group, Mr.PhD in computer science. I will be joining him in September (hopefully if I survive the summer) but until then he is above me academically. I shall be your colleague soon Epi! He is the voice of reason. He's very mature and civilized, so I'm not really sure why he's a gamer (haha juust kidding). He is currently my academic advisor, even though he never agreed to it. But who cares, I'm sure he'll agree cause he's a nice guy. If you need academic advice, I suggest you go to Epi.

OMG-howboutnoooo

We all call him Max, because that's his name. He is the dog of the family - and that is not to say that he plays an unimportant role. Dogs are a man's best friend and they are extremely friendly, just like Max. Sometimes when you listen to him you might think he's on LSD, but really he's naturally just like that. He sees the world in magical ways, and he opens up your mind to a whole new world. He's also extremely active - as in he's pretty hyper and is always energetic until around 11pm when he usually goes to bed. I initally made fun of Max for sleeping so early as a teenager, but once I realized how much energy he spends just talking I understand why he's exhausted by the end of the day. If you are feeling down, go talk to Max. He is the guy in the clan who will cheer you up.

OMG__IN1

OMG_Jackho

OMG_Jona

Jona is just Jona. He's the drama queen. Yes, believe it or not I am not the biggest drama queen, he is and he's damn proud of it. From just 3 minutes of talking to him, you'd realize that he likes to put himself on the pedestal, and he does. But even with all that attitude, he's a lot of fun to hang out with. Listening to him on vent always makes my day. He also never rage quits, and never actually gets angry - which is kind of surprising now that I think about it. He also has nice eyes that he cherishes, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

OMG_Jongalt26

Nickname is Jon. One continuous question that has been floating around is this, "Who would win in a fight against Jon, KAL-EL and yeahneil?" That is an answer no one has been able to answer yet. Those 3 in my mind are the tough trios - but really, they're all actually probably the nicest people in the clan right from the get go. I'm not going to lie, I was scared to talk to them initially but after maybe.. 2 days? I got comfortable with them. Jon to me is a wonderful fatherly figure so he is definitely the father of the family.

OMG_KAL-EL

His name is pronounced just like the way it's spelled. If Jon is our father, KAL-EL is probably our grandfather, except he's not even that old. So why do I call him the grandfather? Because he has so many people that support him that you can't help but admit that there's something about KAL-EL that makes people like him. The answer becomes quite obvious when you engage in a conversation with him. He always keeps it real, and is genuinely friendly. I still have a hard time matching his friendliness with his tough voice but I'm getting there. 

OMG_Mybones

A fellow gleek, and although there are some disagreements between us about who the best character in glee is (obviously Rachel, but he refuses to admit her greatness), as long as he is a fan of glee, I am a fan of him.

OMG_NinkiCZ

I'm just your average joe who's Asian. I'm quite boring so let's move on to someone more interesting.

OMG_Nomilarac

OMG_Obiwhan

I've actually always wanted to meet Obi (his nickname) after yeahneil was making fun of my voice and mentioned that he also makes fun of Obi's. When I actually got to meet him, he wasn't quite what I expected because contrary to what yeahneil thinks, he just had a normal voice. Obi is one of the few that makes me literally LOL. I sometimes do wonder if he's telling me the truth about his age though. You'd understand if you've known him long enough. He is the joker. No, not the joker from Batman, but an actual guy who makes jokes. However, his jokes are NSFW - Not Safe For Work, so be careful.

OMG_pacov

There really isn't much to say about pacov because for anyone that comes to these forums, you really can't miss his name. I've never gotten to know him on a personal level, but from my encounters with him he's quite a wonderful person. I consider him the father of Demigod, as do most people I'm sure because he plays such an active role in this community. I've always wanted to get to know you myself and I'm glad that the opportunity has arrived. I shall definitely update this introduction after we become familiar with each other. I also did not think you were the type to listen to Ke$ha. From your posts, I always thought you were more the old skool type - so there's definitely lots of things for me to learn.

OMG_Pa1nKi11er

This is irek, yo. 

OMG_RedneckNinja

OMG_DD-shred_demon

If you don't know who shred_demon is then you are definitely missing out. He is actually the real Gentleman. He has a beautiful Scottish accent and loves to drink tea. He cannot live without his tea. He is also extremely skilled with his use of emoticons (the best in DG?) and we all have lots to learn from him. I've never heard him get angry, he's always smiling in my mind and he always puts a smile on my face. Therefore, if you are feeling down, talk to shreddy. He is the clan's sun (yes as in the big thing that shines the world), but you'll have to ignore his strong desire to wear a skirt and become a transformer.

OMG_Soccer-mom

I remember seeing the name Soccer-mom on Lagwars and thinking what kind of a person would want to be known as a soccer mom. Although his name is a bit weird, he actually is nothing like his name on vent. First, he's not a mom. Second, he's not even a parent. Third, I'm not even sure if he likes soccer. He's actually one of the younger guys on vent but surprisingly is one of the most mature guys on there too. I suppose it has to do with the fact that he studies physics (which I think is absolutely amazing because I suck at physics). If you want to delve into a discussion on quantum theory, talk to him.

OMG_SoSick

Another Canadian from Edmonton, which makes him cool. Quite a laid back sorta guy, who's apparently an excellent cook. He kind of reminds me of jaws8you (who seemed to have disappeared somewhere) but without the sighing and he also never gets mad. He is a great guy to play games with because he's a great listener, always calm and even takes responsibility for his mistakes - which is quite a rare sight in Demigod, and even in life. He has almost made drastic improvements over these weeks and I'm sure he'll be excellent in no time. 

OMG_Splitshadow

Don't be fooled by his age. Kids his age should be listening to Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus, yet he chooses to listen to Proud Mary by CCR. He likes to blame me for not being on vent, when in fact I am always on and I do pm him from time to time yet he chooses to ignore my messages, probably from Maccilia's terrible influence. He says he can tell a lot about you from your voice, so you should ask him for a personality diagnosis if you're interested.

OMG_Teseer

Everytime I talk to Teseer on vent, he seems like a completely different person. If you look over his posts you can tell that most of the time he's under the influence of some sort of substance, which could explain why he's a different person each time. While he sounds like a tough dude, he's not aggressive at all and I don't think I've ever heard him get mad. He also has this disgusting passion for TB, it's kind of to the point where it's a bit obsessive in my opinion. If you have any questions about TB, ask this man. Provide him with TB replays and he'll be very pleased.

OMG_Zalera (a.k.a. OMG_Sol)

He's barely on so how am I supposed to know anything about him. All I know is that he pops up in the forums once in a while and he seems to be BFFs with Splitshadow.

OMG_Zelax_

OMG_Zex (a.k.a. Cowbuttzex)

I always thought cow was a weird guy because he's the only person who seems to get along with Peter, but when you talk to him he's actually quite normal. I think it's because he's very accepting of everyone, as you can tell from being our first ever member of the week. If you don't know who to talk to when you come onto vent, the first person I would suggest is cow, because he's very considerate and would do his best to include you in games. He's also very encouraging and I think he plays a vital role in merging the members of the clan together.

Dead space 2 - $25.59 after tax.  Digital download only.

Direct from EA - http://bit.ly/i6YsGf

Use code:  spaced38d22

Not sure how long this lasts, so get asap if you want.  Pretty solid deal and probably the best you'll see for a bit. 

edit - 15 gig download btw.  The code gives you 40% off dead space 2 on any platform - pc just happens to be the cheapest.  Think it gives you free shipping as well, but not sure.

Heh, I will when the time is right.

ninki - you should join us in the next 2v2 - even if its only for fun.  Worst case, you lose and are out about 2 hours of your time.  Best case, you get some money

I ordered the R.A.T. 7  gaming mouse tonight.  Should have it in a few days.  I'll provide a review in a bet.  Been hearing good things and think I'm due for a replacement. 

on Mar 08, 2011

The Rat 7 is a really good mouse, i want to get a G500 to see which one i like better though.

I also had some tracking issues with the RAT however tech support provided a regedit that eliminated mouse acceleration which is what was causing the problem.

Let me know what you think.

ah - didn't know you had.  I've quite happy to hear from any of our tech enthusiast omg folks... we have a few.  My preference is before I purchase, though

Anyway, I've heard enough good about the rat7, but I'm not exactly wow'd by the looks, but I'm a huge fan of the customization options. 

Anyway, I'd love to hear the current pc specs from omg folks that are enthusiasts... there are at least 4 of us that I know of.  I might start a separate thread on the topic (I'll link here if I do).

My biggest complaints with the Rat are:  A spec of dust throws tracking off bad, mid game can be frustrating, the left "wing" where the sniper button is, will move inwards if you push too hard, oh i mean, not hard at all rather.  The feet are a bit small so it can a bit scratchy.  Everything else is just awesome.  Great location for sensitivity switching buttons, profile button, dual scroll wheels etc.

Im using this mouse on top of a Razer Vepula mouse pad.

My keyboard is a saitek cyborg but i will be ordering a Razer Black Widow whenever i get around to it.  I thought about getting a steel series or DAS, since they has nth rollover on the keys (you can press as many as you want) but it doesnt have backlighting or USB pass thru. (which i use regularly)

Computer specs:
Primary  system (gaming / video editing)

Thermaltake Armor case.  (Next build will be with the corsair 800d case)

Well, here's some initial feedback on the R.A.T.7.  So far, I like it, but I haven't played anything yet where I've used a customizable settings.  Perhaps I'll fire up BF2-BC2 and give the snipe button a shot.  For anyone that doesn't know, there is a button that you can press that essentially changes the dpi for the mouse on the fly (or so that's how I understand it).  The result is it slows down your tracking substantially so its easier to lock on for a headshot, etc.

Unboxing - nice, solid packaging.  The mouse is easily accessable and it comes with a hard case so that you can store the multiple components that you can swap on the fly. 

Customization - quite a few options here.  You can increase or decrease the length of the mouse until you get a fit that is comfortable.  It also comes with a pinky finger attachment that you can use if you like so that your pink finger rests on the actual mouse and not on the table (put your hand over your mouse and see where your pinky is to get what I'm on about).  You can change the look and texture and can widen the mouse a bit if you want to do that as well. In addition, with the software, you can program multiple profiles, but I haven't played with this yet.  And there is also a button on the mouse that enables you to swap between multiple dpi settings on the fly. 

Looks - well, its not overly pretty imo.  Its comfortable and fully customizable, but not exactly conventional looking.  If you've ever used a mouse, though, its instantly comfortable.

Overall - so far I like it as a replacement mouse (think i had a logitech g7 or something to that effect).

Price - still pretty expensive.  It retails for $99.99.  Got mine with some gift cards I had left over for gamestop along with a 25% off accessories code, so I had to play very little out of pocket.  I think $100 is a little steep for this, thouh, but I believe its a great mouse.

onto random hardware (I'll post some full specs later when i get a chance):

I've got the saitek eclipse 2 for a keyboard - had that for several years and I'll probably trade up, but its so far been my fav keyboard to date.  Nice design and the backlit keyboard is great:  http://reviews.cnet.com/keyboards/saitek-eclipse-ii-illumintated/4505-3134_7-32103493.html

I've been playing some dragon age 2 lately in my ever decreasing free time this week.  I've read a few things on the pc gaming forum where folks aren't digging it all that much.  I'm having fun though.  I do wish I didn't always choose to hear every bit of dialog though... there is soooooooooooooo much.  I'd say in the 2-3 hours I've managed to play, only about an hour has been actual fighting/moving outside of dialog. 

Anyone else pick it up and have some thoughts on it?

I wish I was old and had money. Wait.... I don't want to be old nvm.

you will be old soon enough cowbutt, and then you'll have some young whipper snappers saying the same things to you.

Or you will get owned by a wife and wont be "allowed" to play games.
