If you were the perfect version of yourself...
If I could only pick one thing I'd pick this. I don't know what else I'd change, I don't like change :P

Where in the World is Tip.it?
I think I missed all the fun stuff, all I did was a couple of markers for me and funny place names and trolled jimmy_jim's marker a little bit :( Probaly not worth the effort to do again though, it had a good run I think we should let it die like drawball.

Officials, referees, and umpires
I'm sure a lot of NZ'ers would point you to the last rugby world cup with this topic. I would say sports such as rugby there is so much going on at once its gotta be a difficult job to ref, but these guys are professionals you probaly should expect them to more often then not make the right calls. Cricket is interesting, the new review system (sort of like what tennis has) has been implmented now which I like as one bad umpiring decision can cost a lot, and to be honest the umpire really doesn't have long to see what happens considering in international matches the bowlers can bowl upwards of 145km/h. Reminds me of in our matches when there aren't enough umpires around the batting team has to do the umpiring, I gave one guy out (one of our coaches to make things worse) when he clamed to have hit the ball, terrible feeling that but its so hard to pick up on those sorts of things :/

Where in the World is Tip.it?
I don't live in a town or city if that counts? Nearest town has a population of less than 2000. But I generally just say I live in Nelson, and by that I mean the general area which is pretty spread out (it's over half an hours drive from my house to the actual Nelson city).

Census 2.0
Caucasian, Athiest and Heterosexual, that's about enough information to narrow me down to, I don't know, say 3/4 of the internet.

Anger while doing things you enjoy
In any sport I play I tend to get a bit mad... I've broken a few badminton racquets (not cheap ones as well) from throwing them at the ground in anger and general shouting/swearing loudly. Theres just something about the sport I guess? Eh its funny really as I'm just a friendly quiet person in real life...

Cricket!
I've been following how Kane Williamson does, thats about it. Good idea to have Southee open the batting in t20 I think. Seems NZ don't have any tours for ages >.<

The awkward moment when theres an earthquake and you are evacuated for 4 freaking hours from 10:30pm till 2:30am... with an exam at 9am tomorrow. Don't know if the exam is still on but apparntly the quake was only a 5.3, felt a lot bigger then that, it cut the power and my screen almost feel over. People may not get this but theres a hilarious FB like page related to this: I've had it with these mother[bleep]ing shakes on these mother[bleep]ing plains.

Your favorite memory
I can't think of a favourite, but I guess the 6 wickets I took in a cricket match last year is pretty high up there, and it was the last for the team before I left for uni (was the first time I'd ever got 5 before).

That really sucks man. I've never lost a good friend before, but I imagine it would be a really terrible feeling.

Gaming mice
I've got a Razer Deathadder v2. It's what I use and have for quite a while. It's not on that list but it's a very solid mouse, feels good to use. Would also recommend the intellimouse 3.0.

7 years of Tip.it Forums
yup,3 months worth of posts gone,it was around June 2008 or so,so everything until march was gone myself? i joined in june 2007,and if i read some of my earlier posts (hell,posts i made last year,even a month ago too) make me cringe becasue of the stupidity of said posts (this post is probably make me cringe too when i read it again in 4 years) in the 4 years that ive been posting here,i matured (a little),gained lots of new friends,and,still after all those years, some of my posts tend to kill the thread they're posted in :twss: And :"Ever caught them?"-thread,does anyone remember that one? Haha yes the ever caught them thread, amazing... almost felt like people were posting whatever with no limits at all. I think that was lost in the rollback? And there were some other ones like testicular torsion which was pretty funny.

I lurked for a few months before joining. ZI'm at 4 1/2 years about which isn't too bad. I'd have to say having such an awesome OT board especially for a game like Runescape must be pretty rare and special... And I remember posters like Bubsa and Trapical (bubsa's album and I do seem to remember Trapical's post in the graduating pranks thread or whatever it was).
