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.

Since I have no clue what the hell goes on in this forum anymore, I have decided to sing a song.

Hello Hello Baby

No I can't hear a thing

DUM DUM DUM DUM

In the club you see see

what what did you say

are you breaking up on me

 

 

on May 17, 2010

I'm a bit baffled by what goes through some people's minds and so I would like to express my thought process thoroughly so that maybe I can ingrain a sense of reality.

Face it, I have already accepted the fact that Demigod is not going to boom a long time ago. It is currently a dying game, and the 1.3 patch may revive the game for a bit longer, but I doubt it'll keep it alive for long. As the release of StarCraft II is fast approaching, I believe many players will get sucked into that game, pack their bags and go; my current friends included. It's happening right now and the demise of DG is pretty much inevitable.

So I had 2 choices, leave the game altogether and actually focus on school, or try and keep what's already left of Demigod for as long as possible. Clearly with the establishment of OMG, I have chosen the 2nd option.

Demigod was the first online game I've ever played and it will probably be my last. I've been trying out games here and there but I've been careful not to get sucked in. While I seem extremely active on the forums, I'm usually doing 20 things at once because real life always catches up to me - so it's probably best that I stick to one game and only one game.

However, what I did learn from Demigod was that people are actually pretty nice. I remember picking up counterstrike for 2 days until I decided to quit because all I got was some intense yelling from every player, which pretty much gave me a terrible impression of what the gaming community was like in general. DG has pretty much made me realize that it's not always like that. I've come to meet some of the most interesting people from around the world and even made some new facebook friends, and we all know from South Park that facebook friends = real friends. HAH!

With that said, my hope with this clan is to keep the game alive, keep it going. That's why I've kept the recruitment requirement very light. Being part of this clan does not mean that you are forced to stick with these people and only play games with these people. You can play with whomever you want whenever you want. If you want to stick with a certain group of members, that's fine. I'm being realistic here, I highly doubt that a small clan with a bunch of strong players will last very long. Sure it might help inflate your ego for a few weeks, but after that it'll just end up stashed away and forgotten as the player base continues to die off.

This clan will also not last if we let our egos get to us. Thinking that you're better than everyone will get you no where. I understand that some people want to feel like they're the best, but what's so impressive about being the best in a game where you have less than 200 active players. It's impressive in HoN or StarCraft with a large player base, but come on, this doesn't even come close. You also don't need a clan to tell people you're good, if you're good everyone will know anyway with or without a clan tag.

So my personal request is for everyone to put aside their differences, put aside our egos, and all aim for one goal: to keep Demigod alive. Yes it won't be easy. Just tonight we had 5 game crashes in a row, which left everyone agitated and they all ran off to another game or to bed. But hey, we're all a bit masochistic if we're still here after months of desyncs, lags, disconnects and bugs. I've been here since the 3rd week of release and I still remember how I had to host "3v3 CAN/US East" games because it just wasn't even possible to play with any other region. We couldn't play with Favour items for like the first two months. I also remember how everyone complained that regulus was too OP in the beginning - and wanted his mines to do less damage. Erebus used to deal 900 damage with bite, and cost almost no mana to use. Heart of Life only costed 4200 gold, and everyone used it. It used to take 1 second to lock a flag so it was much harder to stun. I used to think I was cool walking around with a 92% win rate and a 50 game win streak cause it was just that easy back then. Ah, sweet sweet memories.

Let's try and juice out what is left of Demigod and keep it alive for as long as possible. I still enjoy playing with all of you and while the game has gone stale for me months ago, the people here are just totally awesome that I just can't leave.

(Sorry for the long post. I will try to shorten it as much as possible in the future.)

Woo!!! Can I joi....wait a minute....

shred_demon

 I guess someone beat me to it

on May 17, 2010

I also did not think you were the type to listen to Ke$ha.

well... you did say that I had to pick something top 40s... and so i have

my 2 cents as well regarding your description - jon's one of the nicest guys in the game and a pretty solid guy. 

on May 17, 2010

I'll be writing introductions for everyone with the tag. I will address this whole tag business when I come back from school because I think it's important to establish here what the tag is for.

Nomi, I'm glad you've decided to join! Your name popped up along with a few others when I had suggested this idea so I'm sure we will all love to have you here. You can invite those people too if they're interested

on May 17, 2010

Oh and pacov, don't worry. I still remember your request, I just need to get this whole vent thing cleaned up and sorted out so just give me a bit of time.

on May 17, 2010

I'll ask Atma and Kiamori if you guys don't mind.

on May 17, 2010

Dang, Ninki, you sure put effort into those bios.

on May 17, 2010

We would love their addition ba. I've asked Kiamori myself but you're probably better at persuading them lol. I would ask AtMa but he sometimes scares me.

on May 17, 2010

I'd love to join guys. I don't play all that often, but summer is coming up, so I'll probably play a good bit for about a month or two. What I want to know is why Tesser doesn't get an introduction 

I love your description of Obiwhan by the the way. He's a fun guy to play with, even though we use to lose all the time.

on May 17, 2010

^Welcome! I shall add you to the list when I'm home. I'm going to have a hard time writing an introduction for you though... I guess I could stalk your posts and infer what kind of a person you are. Maybe someone else can volunteer to write an intro for him?

on May 17, 2010

Ninki I have no idea what you are talking about with this drama queen business.

on May 17, 2010

is never going to put any tag of any clan on my name for 2 reasons i dont wana just for that reason i just dont wana 2nd because ive had threats against my nick name AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE

on May 17, 2010

OMG_Jona
Ninki I have no idea what you are talking about with this drama queen business.

Fine, I'll go home and change it to something else. pm me and we can talk about how you want to portray yourself.

Oh, is that your eye in your display pic? It kinda looks lke it.

on May 17, 2010

So, what's the position on me being in two clans   Also, when do I get my grand introduction
