DNW: Scott Dorks Out w/ Chun Li, MegaMan, and the Protoss

[Scott Lynch]

So, just to prove once again what a massive geek I am...

There's this place. This glorious, glorious place called http://remix.overclocked.org. Where folks remix video-game music. I ye not... console games, mostly. All the old thumb-blisterers I used to burn my eyes out on for hundreds of hours on end in those mis-spent formative years from 1987 to 1994. Techno re-mixes of the MegaMan 2 music, F-Zero music, Super Mario Bros. music, Ninja Gaiden music... manna from heaven.

Then I stumbled over this one:

Once upon a distant time, I was a Street Fighter 2 terror and Chun Li was my weapon of choice.

[Moe Ronalds]

Just so you know what ya have to work with: I spend more time talking to people on-line than face to face, I always ahve a bundle of penciles in my shirt pocket, I go to Star Wars and RPG (well DUH) message boards, my acne has taken over probably my entire face, and I'm the only guy at school with a pony tail. Do you think you can geekdify me???

<b>Scott, how can I go about becoming as geeky as you when I grow up?</b>

Moe, you will go to the Dagobah System. There you will learn from Yoda, the Jedi Master who instructed me.

What? You don't have a spaceship? Well, stick with playing *Deeds Not Words.* You'll get there eventually.

Cheers,

SL

Another little blue wonder!

Presenting MegaMan... the plucky little android created by Dr. Light to take on Dr. Wiley's small army of evil robots! MegaMan is something of an underachiever, though he can build himself up by acquiring powers, just like in the video games...
