Haha. Welcome to the forums mate.

Haha, unfortunate post by Queg.. >.<;

Yes, Aquaria is pretty darn beautiful. And definately not a girls game according to this thread. ;)

Yes - it took over 5 pages to verify that incontrovertibly.  ;D

Lol, you didn't have to put it that way. I was actually very light-headed at that time when I was recording this because it was in the middle of the afternoon and I haven't eaten yet. >_<

Oh snap.  I hope you don't get the wrong idea.  This was a totally offhand comment because I obviously had no idea who recorded the video and didn't go searching through the history to see if there were others... it was just a quick search.  And obviously I dispensed entirely with diplomacy because I didn't think the poster of the video was going to be reading.   ;D  So no offense meant, and don't take it as meaning anything... all I really meant to say was "This isn't a bragging-rights video posted by some uber-gamer with a high score of 9 trillion", and laziness just lead me to take the, er, less tactful option.

So sorry mate... but cheers, and do stick around and check out Aquaria.  Most of the people here aren't dicks, whatever these lovely first impressions I've given you may be.   :)

You had to bring this off-topic back?

It's a perfectly reasonable tangent under the circumstances.

Hah, well put Quem. (it'd be difficult to sound reasonable under the embarrasing circumstances >.<)
(I don't know why but I always thought there was a 'g' in your name somewhere so I called you Queg before without thinking xD)

And there's nothing wrong with a little controlled off topic discussion.. As long as no one really needs the topic anymore. xD

I was gonna' say, I figured the main topic was dead enough at this point.   ^-^

And Hiro, no sweat.  I get called just about everything from Quark to Queequeg.  Hence "Q" is usually the simplest, especially because the oft-used "Que" version gets mispronounced like the Spanish  "que" (phonetically, "kay").  And then when people try to pronounce the whole thing it just spirals ever downward.  For some reason "Quem" doesn't get used so much, though I wonder why.  It always seemed the most logical abbreviation to me aside from "Que".



 ... uh, this wouldn't be considered really, really off-topic, would it?   :o

just figured out what happened here, that is just classic. welcome to the forums Mgbenz and style points for nice entrance  ;)  I can see mentally why Queg would happen, the middle q sort of looks like a g and it sounds good. weird

This thread has officially spiraled off into the depths of the off-topic void, screaming "wheee!" all the way.  :)

It's a pretty dead topic anyways, specially in todays society where it's borderline to think that something is specifically a girls game or a guys game. I remember when Hockey was just a guys game, and such isn't the case in todays society.

Haha, what, so you're really NOT 4000 years old? Aww.
;P

And yeah, Queg just sorta sounds alright (maybe also because I've read books by Raymond E. Feist in which there is a country called Queg...Hmm xD)
Oh, and from the sounds of things you use that name often Quem? I for one always use Hiro when its not already taken.  ;)
