Was an entertaining read for sure, but I was curious about the actual answers to a lot of the questions that you didn't really answer.

Acro, you tease, when are you going to expose your creamy center to us? All foreplay, no followthrough.

lol.
Really wanted to know how you came across dgames.
Someone appeared to be having some real life issues on another forum board. I stalked their profile and saw that some of the videos he posted traced back to this site. I started doing user blogs because I used to be really into the idea the whole idea of the collective contribution thought process. Anyone can contribute, everyone benefits. Somewhere along the line I became jaded or rather became aware that people weren't as interested in sharing some new idea or theory and were more eager to discuss day to day topics or videogames. I don't play video games that much b/c I'm primarily a laptop user and I detest running anything that forces my fans to whir like they are trying to cool down a melting factory facing Defcon1. Hence a black list to demonstrate that I didn't feel comfortable giving a list. If anything, mafia was a game that fit my criteria and some of my interests. My first game of mafia was here and it was the same game as Ranmaru. I got embarrassed after tanking the game, but came back later to do another newbie with th3kuzinator, Zen, sangfroid, and some other psuedo-newbie who didn't stay for the ride.

Was an entertaining read for sure, but I was curious about the actual answers to a lot of the questions that you didn't really answer.
I don't mind re-answering any questions that you want me to elaborate on. Certain questions had a humorous response b/c I find that that the deflected material helped me more to deal with the question itself rather than providing a direct answer.

For example, I think that political views are shaped by someone's view on politics. Looking at how someone interprets the collective motive tank that goes into Congress and Senate when it comes time to pass legislation is integral towards understanding why they have a particular political view. I support welfare programs and don't believe that they should be slashed, because even though Republicans state the reason is for fiscal conservatism the money often gets sourced into national defense where a lot of GOP party liners occupy positions and jobs.

I support Wendy Davis's filibuster due to the fact that the legislation being passed had the potential to cut down the number of abortion clinics to three in the state. The Daily Show with Jon Oliver put a funny spin by geographically comparing the three abortion clinics to the two Six Flags that occupy the massive state. Women should have the right to determine whether they want to give birth and it is an unfortunate truth that we must accept that regardless of anyone's position on this issue, we are not given the choice of whether we want to be born into this world or not. We simply choose whether we want to make the best of what we've been given or whether we want to be fatalistic and look at the great equalizer.

I believe that Congress is becoming increasingly about individuals rather than a collective. This is partly due to greater media coverage and the popularity of sound bites presented on youtube that highlight extreme stupidity as soon as it manifests from the mouth. Lindsey Graham, Newt Gingrich, Michelle Bachmann, ect. are media clowns and the Republican race was a literal clown fest with a politician using the end credits song to a Pokemon movie to announce the end of his campaign making it obvious that this person didn't really watch the movie and thought it would be novel to grab something strange for self-flattery.

Congress is also becoming increasingly individual because politicians are increasingly thinking about retirement and where they land after civil service. There is a stat out that politicians find jobs from companies that lobbied the heavily while they were serving office. That's obscene, but it is also a representation of how money has become a driving factor for us, our leaders, and the people who already have more than enough money to buy their own country. With everyone running scared the question is what gets compromised. And it's obvious that what we've lost is integrity.

When Sears was busted big for their auto-scandal in which management told mechanics to bill more even if the car was in fine shape, mechanics eventually caved in and over billed their clients. Having morals is something that you consider after you pay the bills, put a roof over your head, and put food on the table. Maslow indicated that this behavior is rational even charting out a small pyramid with more superficial needs escalating on top. The cost of survival has become ridiculously expensive and it's not surprising to see that individuals have become more greedy when greed itself is needed to be responsible and to fiscally look after your own well-being. However this adoration of money has shown why it has become such a toxic concept when such a paradigm also indicates that the wealthy are just as desperate and the ratio of wealth in this country become more polarized.

The ACA isn't the reason why managers and corporate are cutting full-time employers to part-time status. Their refusal to pay the penalty fee for not insuring their workers and their refusal to consider giving actual insurance for their workers is the reason why the ACA stimulated them to look at their wallets and penny pinch their most loyal workers. With the heavy layoffs, there is a mercantile attitude going around through all professions that putting full trust in your employer is an attitude that puts you out homeless the next day. Workers went from staying with a company for 20-30 years to now only remaining at the company for an average of 5 years.

When we discuss political views we should also enter into a dialogue of political motives. Are we really so base that our most educated leaders need to debate whether or not two people who are in love with each other should be outlawed? Is this really a matter of cutting off the right to marriage because we don't have more money to doll out or are these cover issues that our politicians mindlessly bicker about so they don't have to talk about the real problem that plagues the current American thought consciousness which will be for our current generation about money.

I don't think I learned anything actually interesting about Acro from that interview. Whatever it takes for a laugh, I guess?

My vote goes towards Hando. Mid 2000s fa' life.

I don’t have a facebook and I don’t know why you haven’t added me on skype.
Last time I asked you said something about deleting it because of some stalker ninjas or something.

Vote: Seph

The five people least likely to cause me stress/grief in a mafia game. For example, Xonar isn't on the list because I'd feel bad if I started playing like crap when we were both the same alignment. I don't want to imagine another game with rolling mafia and getting hardbodied by Ryker town with power absorbing features. NIGHTMARE MODE ACTIVATED. This isn't a top five list of good players because that's not the most important quality that determines whether I come out enjoying a game or not. I enjoy pinning reads on you. Circus has been side splitting hilarious after his doge post. Werekill can be a ticking time bomb in any given game, but it is rejuvenating to see someone just so emotional in any given game. You could refer to the five person listing as the five people who'd I consider eagerly joining a game with because I think that there's compatibility.

Some of the pictures can be clicked on. For clarification: Red Ryu - Bodie. Watch the video. Zen - Prez. Watch the video. Xonar - Bunk.

Cloud Strife: [Zack lies at the edge of a cliff, dying; various pieces of 'enemies' armor & weapons scattered across the ground; Cloud, still weak from "Mako addiction", crawls toward Zack; when he finally reaches Zack's side] Z-Zack.
Zack Fair: [grunts in pain; face relaxes, he looks at Cloud; with a smile] For the... both of us.
Cloud Strife: [confused] Both... of us?
Zack Fair: That's right... you're gonna...
Cloud Strife: [as if to prompt him] You're gonna...
Zack Fair: [Zack reaches out, grabs Cloud behind the head; as he pulls Cloud's head down to rest on his chest] Live.
[holds his head in comradery/friendship]
Zack Fair: You'll be... my living legacy.
[hand drops to his side; Cloud sits up again, the side of his face now covered with Zack's blood; Cloud just looks at Zack silently; Zack looks over at Buster; drags it towards Cloud]
Zack Fair: My honor... my dreams...
[holds Buster out towards Cloud]
Zack Fair: they're yours now.
Cloud Strife: [reaches for the sword with one hand; eventually grabs with the other also; Zack briefly touches Cloud's hand before he pulls the sword towards himself; silent a few moments] I'm... your living... legacy.
[Zack closes his eyes, smiles and dies; Cloud, distraught, looks up at the sky, screams his grief]
