Movies — True Cheat

True Cheat (original title)
110 min – Adventure | Drama | Western
Taglines: Punishment comes one way or another

A tough U.S. Marshal helps a stubborn young woman track down her father’s murderer.

Directors: Lame brothers
Stars: The Doctor, Aspi and Awesome Possum

Storyline

Following the murder of her father by hired hand cheater Fuzzy Q. Jones, 14-year-old farm girl Awesome Possum sets out to capture the cheater. To aid her, she hires the toughest U.S. marshal she can find, a man with true skills, The Doctor.
Awesome insists on accompanying The Doctor, whose drinking, sloth, and generally reprobate character do not augment her faith in him. Against his wishes, she joins him in his trek into Ballerbude in search of Fuzzy Q. Jones.
They are joined by Texas Ranger Aspi, who wants Fuzzy Q. Jones for his own purposes. The unlikely trio find danger and surprises on the journey, and each has his or her skills tested.

Quotes

The Doctor: We’ll sleep here and follow in the morning.
Awesome Possum: But we promised to bury the poor soul inside!
The Doctor: Ground’s too hard. Them men wanted a decent burial, they should have got themselves killed in summer.

Aspi: You give out very little sugar with your pronouncements. While I sat there watchin’ I gave some thought to stealin’ a kiss… though you are very young, and sick… and unattractive to boot. But now I have a mind to give you five or six good licks with my belt.
Awesome Possum: One would be just as unpleasant as the other.

Awesome Possum: [cutting the rope on the tree] Why did they hang him so high?
The Doctor: I do not know. Possibly in the belief it’d make him more dead.


Of course, just joking on Coen brothers’s movie, “True Grit”. Heartily recommended to Western movies lovers (don’t you think, Mope?).

3rd Clan Deathmatch

Day: Tomorrow, Thursday 23 June 2011.

Time:

Italy 20:30
Belgium 20:30
Germany 20:30
France 20:30
Hungary 20:30
Israel 21:30

Server: Terra Nova

Dresscode: What do you think about the idea of all of us using the model of Union soldier (available at Terra Nova)?

I think it could be fun! I don’t know the reason why Union soldiers could shoot at each other – but perhaps, why not?

If there are any Confederates here, who strongly oppose this idea, they can dress as they like!

Proposed Maps: Ghost Town, Alamo 2, Tijuana.

BigBrotherBot available commands

Not sure that every one knows the commands available in console in BallerBude. As you probably know BallerBude installed a software called BigBrotherBot (also known as B3) to make administrators’ life easier. B3 is also responsible for BallerBude’s XLRStats page.
BallerBude uses a strongly customized version of BigBrotherBot, friendly known as BBB (BallerBudeBot).

To use B3 commands you have to type them in console. B3 commands are preceded by an exclamation mark (!), not by a slash (or a backslash) as SG native commands. The commands you type are displayed in chat, visible to all other players.
In the table below “NAME” means the name (or the beginning of the name… 3-4 letters) of a player that is in map at that moment.
Of course a simple user like us can’t access all B3 commands, but only few of them. Here they are.

excuse me!

A fun fact I’ve noticed from time to time in Baller Bude.
People start to apologies against *LAME*players. Often referring to Me or Biondo.  They start saying things like:
“Zapata, I got kicked yesterday. But I didn’t cheat! I swear you!”
and even “Zapata, sorry about yesterday, I made an insult”. Or even “sorry, but don’t tell it to Biondo” (real thing mate!)
Last time was really funny. A player started working on our nerves. We had a little chat about his tone and after a while the player told us he was a good friend of Biondo and he didn’t like our tone!  He said: ” I tell everything to Biondo. Blabla.” The same moment Biondo joins that game and the guy stops chatting. We asked him what he’s up to now, but after a silence he quits (I think, or he remained silent for the rest of the game)
It seems like his good friend Biondo didn’t know the poor fellow…what a fun!
Beg for mercy Baller Bude!

A peaceful and friendly Zap.
