Mebbe- wait, marijuano? Is that like marijuana mixed with guano?

#163

Sounds yummy.

#164

You caught me! :jizz:

#165

the first time i saw the site down, i bitched and moaned for a few hours.

#166

I feel like a shit, because I saw the error some minutes after it ocurred(I have like over 50/60 tabs open in two opera windows at the same time), but I didn’t do anything about it. Just now(morning of the 8.) I found out that the server had gone byebye for fairyland with all the unicorns. Then I thought “Shit! This is just bad.” Because I never got to find out if my question to the Dev’s had been answerd or not :frowning:
Now, I live in solitude, with no water and bearly food. I need to find a way to cope, but it’s hard :stuck_out_tongue:

#167

You’d think that the server going down is front-page news worthy…

#168

Tbh I think at that point Raw Bean already had the horn…

#169

Their horses

#170

I’m pretty sure someone already posted an artist’s rendition of the results.

[COLOR=‘Red’]XILEF’S BMS DATA CRASH EXPERIANCE[/SIZE]
:fffuuu::fffuuu::fffuuu::fffuuu:

I[/SIZE] woke up, checked the forums, went out to meet some friends at the college library to do this thing that we all planned to do

I went through the back entrance onto the campus, where the security guard asked for my ID, I was like: “Weird!”

He explained that there was a file system crash at the end of friday and that I had to have my physical ID card checked, I knew right then that the s**t was about to hit the fan

I walked towards the library but stopped off at the DT workshop to put on a DT saftey overall, I was a little bit drunk so I though it said “Welcome to the DT saftey overall suit” and I was like :fffuuu:

I walked to the library, just before I went through the magnetic security alarms that stops people stealing books I met two of my friends, they were explaining the thing we were going to do and were assuring me it would be safe

I went into the library I tried to log onto a computer, but I am banned from the college computers so the woman at the desk said through her microphone that I had to climb up to the upper deck and log into a PC up there so I was like :fffuuu:

I logged onto the PC and then my friend asked if I could move the book trolley back into it’s cupboard and I was like :fffuuu:

I was pushing the trolley into the cupboard but as I was doing it my head was shaking because I was still a little bit drunk

I got it into the cupboard then this huge electrical spark hit me in the stumach and I flew across the room and hit my head because I had a weird dream that I was in some weird world and there were big naked monsters
with three arms and some with weird octopi things coming out of it’s nose on it’s face

I woke up and the library had caught fire and I was like :fffuuu:

So I picked up this crowbar and broke a window and ran away. I got home and logged onto my PC and went to the BMS website and the vBulletin message came up telling me there was this Hard-Drive Cascade or something

I went to sleep and I didn’t wake up until 20 years later when the world had been taken over by a combination of alien races and I was like :fffuuu:

Now I have to carry this userbar so people know I survived the ordeal

xilef: 10 points!

my immediate reaction was: NO WAY! THEY DID NOT CANCEL THE MOD!!!
but i quicky calmed down, and after some hours the forum popped up.

#173

Failure.

#174

panic is a stange thing, makes you think irrational and stuff

#175

True, but it’s still failure. The forums have gone down a few times, so it’s stupid to think the mod’s been cancelled just based on that.

#176

You have surprisingly low expectations of the mod team don’t you?

#177

But at least you fail well.

#178

I went onto forums to browse (before i signed up) and i click onto a post then firefox said “cannot dislpay this webpage” or something along the lines of that so i just crossed it off and played blue shift till it was back up lol

#179

I was teh sleepiz. Then I came to see nude womenz and found out that thur waz a kitteh steal’n BMS’s internet filez.

#180

Woke up, went to BMS website said the website was down and I was like :open_mouth:

And, so i played HL2 for 3 hours and then went back and it was up and iwas like :open_mouth:
