Today I accomplished something I thought I never would. Something that's been tormenting me for over 20 years. I dodged more than 200 lightning strikes in a row on FFX: If you don't know anything about this, then I will go back 25 years in time and take up residence inside your head, all safe and warm never to know anything about it either. But if you NEED the context, here it is. There are a selection of ultimate weapons called Celestial Weapons, one for each character. Obtaining these weapons and charging them up to thier full potential require completing a variety of challenging side missions and mini games. Some of these challenges are fairly straight forward, but take a lot of time and grind. Others in theory should not take that long, but are so nightmarishly hard that the developers responsible have a place reserved in hell. This, what they call "The Lightning Dance" challenge, is one of the very worst. There is an area called "The Thunder Plains" whare lightning can strike the character. It does not harm the party or anything, it's just an indigenous feature of this region. Is possible to dodge these lightning strikes by hitting the right button when you see a "flash" on the screen. The thing is, the time between the "flash" and the lightning strike is right on the limit of a human being's reaction time. I'm not exaduating when I say it's barely possible to dodge just one of them. Yet for this challenge, you are expected to dodge 200 of them in a row. No saves, no leaving the area, no nothing. Get hit, and start all over again. For years this has tormented me, but I've got there with, if I may say so, a pretty impressive 309. Fantastic. Now I never need to do this again in my life ever. Next, and last, is trying to get a time of 0.00 seconds in the Chocobo Race. God help me...

To be fair, I've never known of a forum that would do account deletion. It's bad for forum security and post preservation. We don't do it on VGR either and there are people who have asked.

I’ve never been to the mountains, so I prefer the beach.

The goals, school, dress-up, and collections features really make Marapets unique. The rewards feature is also nice. I haven't seen another pet site implement features as unique as the rewards and collections.

Honestly, the worst song that I’ve ever heard was Gangmam style.

I find that it's best to play games that you're really good at while sick. Even to this day I play those games. I'm also into WRC games.

Same - I also make sure I go to bed early. That way I get a good night's rest and I have a lot of energy throughout the day.

Last year, when I went to Cuba for about two weeks. I need to get back to travelling around - it's amazing to see other cultures and some of the food is absolute exquisite.

The last time I went on vacation was two years ago when I visited some of my family members in Florida.

Relationships. Despite having been with @Rain Dew for 20 years come October, I'm insecure in relationships. It's gotten this way because until @Rain Dew, every girl I had been involved with cheated on me. Every one of the bitches. I have been the type my entire life that I refuse to trust anyone. I also call bullshit on any claim you make if you can't prove it right as you say it. Prove it, or it's a complete bullshit lie. I refuse to trust anyone or anything for any reason.

Kind of, I have sort of an upstairs living room/game room/home office on the second floor of my house. I have all my games and consoles there, my desk and PC, my CRT-TV for my retro consoles, as well as a larger TV for the modern consoles. I also have all my guitars and music gear there. Basically all the stuff my wife doesn't want anywhere else in the house shoved into one room! I'm very happy with it though.

Same here. I remember making a yahoo email account though.

If I'm sick, I'm not sure if I'm playing a video game.....especially if I'm really, really sick. I'm normally staying in bed if I'm too sick and I'm trying to sleep it off.

I sincerely love the big screen experience, but sometimes I realised that it's just not worth the hassle. Now, I have a comfy couch, a huge TV, and a streaming subscription as well. why do I need to bother with overpriced tickets?
