Guess what time of week it is? That's right Double Dose Hess. Unfortunately Bodenee can't be here for it this week but real life is still real life, But I am stepping in.

So lets make it a great TF who is up for it 7 and 10 central (6 and 11 eastern)

OH I might give it a go. Not sure what I would bring

Anything, I have been doing it with bode from week one or two and there is no bad team makeup.

Its none stop fun ... you know that

Week 11 started well, took a little but 8 ran the TF a little defender heavy and cleared in 1:10 ... thanks to all those who came out, next one in half an hour


 

Posted

Well the team filled fast and killed fast, being ambitious we started with a one hour timer and missed by one minute ... but everyone gave a good shot lots of tanks and blasters.

It was a fun week to be Bodenee. see everyone next week (Or before then I want to get an Invinicble ITF for saturday for those up to the challenge more details later)

Thank You Thank You Thank You!

You rock Odacer!

Sounds like you guys had a good time! My son and I worked on some networking issues way into the night...

About to see if it resolved some of my problems. But I really appreciate the helping hand!

Guess Canadians ARE good for something after all... eh?!

** Hope you made good use of the Numpad2 button!!

Week 12.... yes it's true!
12 weeks straight of Double Dose of Hess!
We ran one team 1st round and finished in 67 minutes...
Two teams 2nd round (where I started the 1st team and left Sapho in charge while I started up the second team.) We finished in 70 minutes... Sapho had a few wipes but finished just shortly after we did.
..Fashion Sense on his 50 namesake?!?!? But of course! Was good to see him back in "style" .. oh.. did I mention Funk was on the 1st run on one of his MANY accounts??

Gawd I love "name-dropping"!!...

*you did noticed the pun there...?

..anyway Thank you all for taking part in yet another historic Hess TF Week 12!!

I'm looking into upgrading tomorrow so HOPEfully I'll be up-to-speed for the infamous week 13!!!!

Wholey Carp!!

Week 13?? already?!?!?

Thanksgiving day! (here in the US anyway...)

How many will be here and ready?
Can we make a Turkey outta Burky???
Should we all use one of those extra costume changes lying around to try and make some kinda "Turkey-suit"??
Will anyone be awake to play after all that Turkey and football???
Is it true the giant robot runs on yams?!?!?



...these and many more questions to be answered this Thanksgiving Thursday!!!

...Stay tuned!

Think could make a modified pilgrim outfit LOL

hey just post date and Time and I'll see if I can help out
Farisa needs Hess


 

Posted

whoa!... someone who doesn't know the date and time??

Every Thursday 7 and 10 Central time....

*It's in my Signature!

Lookin' for ya then!

The teams sometimes fill fast, and If I'm the only one there that can start em, I'll start one then quit the TF to start the next! There's usually one or two folks there that have been on it enuff times they can run it quite efficiently!


 

Posted

Now Bode..you KNOW i do not pay attention to the sig lines
but NO WONDER I haven't seen it I have grad classes at that time LOL have thurs off tho this week will -try- to make it to the later one


 

Posted

Awesomesauce!

I've got my blaster done up in a "semi"-Pilgrim-like costume... (best I could do...)

So we'll be huntin' Burkey Turkey!!




*some weird numerology only FUNK will understand...

8/28 has 2 8's in it...
Thanksgiving Day has 15 letters and it's been 13 weeks since 8/28 ... 13 + 15 = 28 ....

purdee spooky eh?

Week 13 was a great success and some friendly competition.

Run 1 ... Sorry Bodenee our 46:25 to your 47:43 still means we won, but it was a hell of a race.

Run 2 ... If he hadn't have gone MIA ... yes the team the Hess Master Himself started finished in what I think is the double dose Hess best time 46:17 team two coming in at 49:46

A lot of people got to show off some real skills hopefully there are more next week (And hopefully Bode sees this and realizes we had a blast after he was gone)

OK i have decided to wait until AFTER finals to participate in "Why the Hess not" if it's still going on as I have major term paper to write and a final test to take that's just not easy lol

yes yes yes....

Oooooh boy...

I knew I'd catch it!.. On Vent with Jimmy for the 1st time, talkin it all up about how great that computer was that I was using at the Cafe...

How awsome their T1 connection was... how great it was playing the game on a much bigger screen and ZERO lag...

...

... all to have their T1 die after less than 10 minutes into the first mission!!!

Geez... I waited around for an hour and a half before I knew it wasn't coming back on and went home!

However, it was good to see that my team managed on without me ( IS that a good thing?!?!? lol ) and beat Odie's team! Den called me a few hours later to find out what happened and he informed me of the results...

I'd like to thank all those who've showed up and blasted Hess with me and I'll be back there in the Cafe again Thursday for more Hess Fest!

Something a little different...

Round one will NOT be about besting our time...
We're actually going for the xp on the lowbees...
It'll be a "Kill-All", we're gonna take our time and make sure NONE of those stinkin "nazi-wannabees" make it outta that TF alive!!!

Muwhahahahahaa!




Round two...
Time baby Time!! Ghosting as many as we can!

No doubt about it....

being sick sux!

Woke up Saturday with some kinda head/chest/lung infested kinda fever and cough... ugh... still had to fight thru Sat Sun Mon and Tues night at work with it!... Sux when you can't breathe, you cough an hack, yer head aches an feels like it's 50 pounds of lead... wind and rain and temps in the low 30s....

BUT!...

Today the sun's out, it's gotta be about 70-ish, an I can finally BREATHE!!! ...after a bottle of nyquil and many many Ibuprofin and breath-rite strips... I'm hittin the showers, shedding this sick-skin and on my way to the Cafe for a good 12 hours of game play!! This Hess tonite is SO on!!!

See ya's there!
YeeeHaaw!

The same Bodenee that used to hang out with Dawg, Kazz, Terrill, OBM, and Stryph (myself) on TeamSpeak? :P

Don't mind me, just browsen

...sheesh!

who else would use/steal that name??



...as I calculate it... 'nother 2 years and it'll be "city of Bodes"...

Damn I do miss those old TS days xD

OK...

someone once mentioned in PinnBadges that "Why the Hess" was eternal...

well that seems to be fading, there was a 1st round with a Defender heavy team and we really kicked butt! Finishing in 47:48 we ghosted when we could but we didn't really have the powers to do it so we ended up killing most of the baddies!

Round 2 never materialized and I don't think anyone noticed...

Since the end of the Rare recipes and the introduction of the merit system maybe the lure and appeal has declined...

Hess is only 15 merits but then again it's less than an hour...

We'll see what happens next thursday, in the meantime what the heck is the trick to the sewer trial? Since the "change" I haven't seen a successful completion yet! Is it such an AT oriented event that you need a specific team to complete it?
