    ...if my favourite game made the list: "Let's Slashdot this server". Seems like it did!

  2. Smoking kippers by eyepeepackets · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back..."

    Okay, I tried smoking a kipper but it just wouldn't light. Is there a howto for this?

    I was thinking that inhaling a burning fish sounds pretty odd, but then inhaling burning plant is rather odd too when one thinks about it. So I started thinking about other things one could smoke but decided to stick with plants after the flashing image of myself with a burning gerbil between my lips. And spare me the Tom jokes, please.

    Happy New Year from Boise, Idaho

  3. Favorite game by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Funny

    My favorite game this past yeat, by far was Microsoft Studio's award winning "Blue Screen of Death". It seems like I wouldn't get more than 5 minutes of work done before I was compelled to play it until my computer rebooted itself!

    My friend keeps talking about some penguin slalom game, but how good could something thats free be? Hell, I paid $125 to get Blue Screen of Death, and I'll be damned if I won't take advantage of it.

  4. Derek Smart!!!!! by Call+Me+Black+Cloud · · Score: 3, Funny

    Why isn't he on this list??? His indie Battlecruiser series, now renamed Ultimate Fighting Championship, are the greatest ever, with secret AI goodness! Hell, the man has a PhD! These games by high school dropouts are nothing compared to the masterpieces that have been in development for years! His flamewar was the greatest online game for years - it's time his software was recognized too! Aaaaaahhhhhh!
