News Flash: Klommo dies .............. again.

Stop killing the little guy off people.  Hasn't he had enough?  After dieing on a raid for the twelfth time, hes starting to give even rangers a bad name.  It appears Snootchie has taken him under his wing and has been teaching him bad tricks.  What ever happened to the ranger kite? Snare, run and fire? This appears lost on the little ranger.  Please leave donations for Klommo's summoning orbs in the lobby.

Dmadman gets Angry .............. again.

After many requests Dmadman has now taken to using an audio trigger to use the washroom.  It appears that his wife has to constantly chide him to take a shower and stop his dependence on adult diapers.  Dmadman's wife has now added this audio trigger to his computer to keep him updated.  In defiance to his wife, Dmadman is now taking donations so he can purchase a laptop so he never has to leave the toilet seat. 

Gamlik falls asleep at his keyboard ............... again.

Third night in a row now that Gamlik has fallen asleep at the keyboard.  Now permanently forged on his forehead is the word "SPACE" (as in the space bar).  As a small joke, we have contacted his wife and asked her to add the line "For Rent" on the rest of his forehead.  We have asked Dmadman to add an audio file to Gamliks computer that will scream like a little child every 30 minutes to keep him awake.  Hopefully this will help Gamliks tanking so he doesn't fall asleep mid pull and bring down the entire group.  On a side note just the other day Gamliks afk for apparently 5 minutes to get something from across the street turned into an half hour ordeal.  After a half hour Hiatus, he returned to voice chat out of breath and exhausted.  I have no idea how large the streets are in his home city, but I hope that it never takes me 30 minutes to cross a road. 

Is Oldar really older than dirt?
How does Kevin Costner keep getting movies?
Will Rikky's taunt key wear out?

Check in next week as these questions and more will be answered in...... the NEW ODIUM TIMES.
