Thought this belongs here - Kong Off Row song and youtube photoshop slideshow:
Donkey Kong Off RowYou know, I've been thinking about it, and I really don't appreciate Brian Allen questioning my place in the DK community. I made this ode to honor the "1st and 2nd generation" of DK contenders, and some of the other gaming luminaries in the current incarnation of the arcade community. What have you done for the arcade community, Brian? You bring nothing but eye-rolls and strife. You are tolerated, because there are very nice people in this community. I am not as nice, and will tell you how it is. Especially now that you've gotten my attention.
Now, I know that you are always on the stream chats, Brian, and I haven't had a chance to spend the time virtually hanging out with everyone recently (although I'd like to), so I don't see everything, but I would bet that what goes on when I'm not around is the same as when I am: you being a pain in the ass most of the time.
I actually play DK. Haven't had a phase where I've focused on it yet, but I will at some point. I've got the basics down, had to practice it for the first battle of the arcades. But it shouldn't matter, anyway. What should matter is that I'm interested in a feeling of inclusiveness in the community, and you, Brian, are an obstacle that people must overcome if they want to be a part of things.
I hope you take my words to heart, Brian, and think about what effect your attitude has on the community.
