Here at the ville, there are so many people that make things great, it's hard to always give them credit for the great things that they do. When I started playing on the ville, I didn't really know anyone except for Holly (Buzzy), but as I met more great people here, I started to play more often. Seriously, there are so many people here that I admire so much and it'll sound so lame and such, but really, these people have helped me realize quite a few things.
First of all of my heroes is Diarmad. When I was first on the ville, he was the first guy to really start talking to me and hanging with me, and we started playing a lot. Lately people have been being jerks to him, and that is just not cool. Anyone who isn't Diarmad's friend isn't my friend, because seriously, this guy is the nicest guy around. I love him very much as a friend, and like I am for other people here, I can't really express the admiration I hold for him.
YevGenie is also a fantastic man. I know we all think Yev is one of the grooviest guys on the ville, but I still think he goes unappreciated. He really goes out of his way to make people feel recognized and point out how everyone is doing good on the team. I don't know about everyone else, but for me, he totally makes me happy no matter how sad I might be at the time. If I'm burned out from too much playing, Yev can fix it, because of how much new fun he breathes into the game.
iOwn is also a superb guy. He is a good player and is great to be on a team with. He doesn't talk all that much, but his songs are teh awesome, and he laughs at people's funny-ness and makes them feel good. iOwn you are a great little dude, and I admire you for being as nice and fun as you are to play with.
acrazyhobo used to play on the ville a bit before, but now he plays much more often, especially when I'm around. I think we all agree on how funny hobo is, and he is always saying things like, "Yo you are so Prrooooo" to people, making 'em feel great. Hobo, thanks for setting an example of great skill combined with the proper attitude, it makes being on your team more fun than eating a massive piece of lawlcake!!
I love you very much, and I want to nom nom nom on your ... lol I was so tempted just now to say bigcaulk. Ahahahah! (yea sorry that might not have been appropriate... lol) MudkipzLet's Swill is teh coolies as well. He doesn't talk as much, but he totally owns much. He is like... oh man... If had a dollar for every rocket I'd eaten from Swill... I'd be a VERY wealthy little boy. I admire him 'cause he's not a douchebag, and he IS skilled. He's also quite polite and friendly in general, so he is quite leet
Buzzy Beetle: .... lol holly you are TOTALLY pro. Being on your team is WAY funner than the opposite one for 2 obvious reasons - you own a LOT more than you think you do, and you are teh funny. Your humility, leetness, and clever video game references bring a load of awesome funniness to my playing. You are a team player, and are not lame (like me) and stack if neccessary to be on a team with ur buds. Thanks again for helping me to find the pro-ness of the peoplez on the ville.
Ladeee also makes a team a lot more fun. She is silly and when I'm dying, she heals me. In fact, she has saved my life from apparently inevitable burnage-death so many times, I visualize her as some medic-y person who is like "rawr I'll help you!" Thanks for being funny and cool and easy going - it makes my gaming so much more fun to have skilled teamates who want to have fun too, instead of just winning.
Str3ss. He is an exemplary man - in truth, I aspire to reach his wisdom one day. People who think he is only after points, you are crazy. Str3ss is an awesome team player, a super geniune and friendly guy. I've stayed in games full of douchebags only cuz he was in it, and it was worth it. He is a great engineer especially, but is also a great sniper or anything else. He doesn't have a mic so he doesn't talk that much, but usually it's cuz he's too busy owning it up and helping his team. Str3ss thanks for being a good friend and setting an example for me.
Itchy! Dude...you are also one of the biggest guys that got be hooked on the ville at the beginning. You own me a lot, especially as scout, and I always noticed you at the top of the scoreboard, and tried to compete with you. I also dig those CS sessions - you are as good at CS as you are in TF2. Like a lot of villuns, you'll go the class you think we need most, and you are another guy I just love playing with. Thanks for everything you've done for me (even though you prolly feel you didn't do anything). You gave me lots and lots of fun!
Dwelling. We are a totally leet team on any map, you and I have worked together so much that we know what to expect and usually own up the other team pretty hardcore. You havn't been on that much lately, but you are a great guy that I really enjoy playing with.
Kweh you are a sweet medic/ demoman especially, and you and I have owned tons on warpath. You're fun to play with for sure, and whenever I can, I jump on your team. Thanks for being leetzorz
Noodle, man, you are soo skilled. Seriously... you are like... oh man. As good as me if not better. I totally admire your skill. I know you virtually never talk, but I know it's cause you're focusing on the pwnage on your screen, which is a lot! You are a good addition to the team - you play for the team, and always rack a LOT of points up. You are who I would say is the best player on the ville - most would agree as well. I admire you, and thanks for setting an example of true, genuine skill.
I know I havn't mentioned all the great people here - I have left out other excellent people like LJ and Carpe, but I'm sure I am not the only one who's ever had an overwhelming emotion of like-age for some of these great people at theVille. This is totally a fantastic community. Glad to be a part of it guys!
P.S. Many of the things I've said for one person totally transfer over to others. In fact, you're all great because of the similar leetness you express!
