1) 28/NZ/Not married
2) 1,014,600 August 2015 L22-E
3) See signature
4) Started playing early 2014 not too long after I started getting involved with the cobbas here at DKF. Everyone else was playing and wanted to join in on the fun (even tho I hated the game at first lol)
5) Stocker WR, CT8 win, future Galaga world champion <Kuh>
6) Other than gaming I will watch sports, drink beer and sleep. Usually in that order. Up until recently Ive played competitive squash my whole life, but a bung shoulder has ruled me out for a while. Thinking about joining this season using my left hand
7) Fav movie hmm....the colour of money? Haha jk. I really liked the green mile
    Fav song too hard to decide. All depends on mood and if I’m balls deep in a game of something
8) Fav game too hard to decide. In the modern-era I’d rank Burnout: Paradise very highly. Fav home system is easily N64.
9) Win Galaga world champs and break both arcade records. Get a cab/cabs and get to Rank A of DKM at least. Also drink all the beers at Funspot with my mates next month
10) I’ll try almost anything once

Ive setup a WP site https://kongoff.net 

Going to include the bio info there as well as an online scoreboard.

Any suggestions for this site please let me know I haven't done anything wordpress related aside from installing it and setting it up for people to use :D

^I like Zaxxon.  I remember one of the cereals had a contest to win a Zaxxon cab, when I was a kid.  I ate so much of that cereal....but sadly I have never owned a Zaxxon cab.  FailFish

Sorry to detract, but you're not alone.  ;D
