A brit asking for money after leaving the eu. Color Mr unsurpassed. I guess brexit wasn't all it was Trumped up to be. I'll be voting no on UK becoming the 52nd State. (51st is the moon, obviously.)

i wish you were dead

[jcr4990]

My wish already didn't come true. Swish's ban wasn't permanent. Why bother.

[feanan]

A very lofty $100 goal. After everyone gets their cut, hopefully someones wish is a glass of water.

[radda]

Actually there isn't time to make a wish, if the patient hits 18, they loose their wish.

[indiscriminate_hater]

Thanks BDA

[Sillyturtle]

Good luck Swish.

[Swish]

i wish you were dead

They dont hand out suspensions for that then? ;)

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Made it up to Newcastle where its being held.

If you're really looking for something to do at 5am/2am tomorrow you can tune into BBC1 who are televising it. To do that get a UK proxy and go to www.tvcatchup.com (good for most of our TV if you're curious).

Hoping to complete the run in 2 hours or so, hopefully less :)

I do not understand the hate for Swish. Isn't he just a funny Brit who makes cat gifs? I guess I don't obsess and visit the forums several times a day like you guys.

that explains why you're trying to forum police who it's OK to like or dislike.

[Swish]

Nobody answered it yet, its okay...I try to keep a positive outlook and let the haters do their thing :)

[ZiggyTheMuss]

lol I don't give a shit. Was asking an honest question.

Yeah I don't understand either! I think it's because Swish is just one of the more real people here it seems. He has an unhealthy obsession with these forums, yes, but not much more so than these other neckbeards you see posting here. The people who hate him are 40 year losers still trying hard to be edgy on the forums of a 20 year old game that the rest of the world barely even knew existed.

Anyone who doesn't understand hasn't bothered reading his 60,000 posts, and I can't say that I blame them.

Fair enough I guess. If I found time to read 60,000 posts maybe I'd feel the same. I just see the same toxic shitbirds hating on him who I recognize as terrible sub-humans.

Well, the people who have been hating on him haven't been suspended from the forums for inappropriate posts. He has been suspended on 2 separate occasions (maybe more, I only know of the 2) for inappropriate posting. So if you're looking for a measure of forum character, he's worse than the toxic shitbirds you say are sub-human.

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Well that's good to know, I don't know about his other suspension, but I believe this recent one was due to a homosexual slur right? One that these days doesn't even carry the hateful connotation that it originally did. I don't use the word myself but Louis CK had a good bit on how uptight and PC people are about it these days. That being said, whatever, I'm not here to defend him. The enemy of my enemy I would consider an ally however, and I'm against all these cringey man-child types that for some reason gravitate to these forums.

do you think its appropriate to assign subhuman status over forum posts? really dude?

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Yes.

[Jaleth]

Honestly I don't get the hate either. Been around for awhile, lurking mostly, very rarely posting. I see statements that could be iffy, but I don't think he means it in a slanderous way. Mostly, I feel he has a quirky sense of humor. His posts make me laugh if not just outright smile sometimes.

+1 for the cat/sometimesotheranimalgifs!

Hope the race went well.

[Ahldagor]

Finish in time to see Triple G get Brooks's corner to throw in the towel?

[bdastomper58]

Yes.

pretty toxic opinion my dude!

[rebeccablack]

do you guys even remember swish's "try red!!!" days? dude would literally post in every single thread in the blue forums and basically spam red server advertisements loosely tied to whatever was being talked about. he's far from the most obnoxious person to ever post here but he's at least top 5.

i think he's a nice enough guy and i genuinely don't think he means any harm, but there's clearly something wrong with him mentally where he gets into some kind of obsessive posting crusade and doesn't know when to let up.

[skarlorn]

Hope u never post here again

I wasn't here for that, but yeah... Red filth should not overflow to the blue forums. He has stopped it at least, no?

[Baler]

good luck today swish! be safe.

[Jaleth]

i need to hear that these posts were made by a single highly intelligent individual with sockpuppets. please

Oh the hypocrisy runs thick. Idiots on the forums.

Nothing wrong with plugging the server you run on. He enjoys the game and wants more to enjoy red as well. I'm not into pvp but doesn't mean others don't enjoy it. I won't bash someone for advocating for something they like, even if I don't like it.

wb and hope this went/goes well...

Well arent you angry and subjective

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Angry? No. Disgusted? Yes. All in all I visit this place like I would visit the zoo because I am fascinated with the unique species of neckbeard that lives on these forums. Only difference is I don't poke the animals at the zoo with a stick!

[Swish]

Thank you for the support everyone. Spent time training, improving my times and working up my fitness so that it wasn't going to be a huge struggle.

Even got a few vids if you'd like to see em :)

Also a big shout out to those who donated for Make A (S)Wish, I think I'd have hit the target if I'd been able to post :)

Cleared it in 1 hour 54 minutes which isn't too terrible, I was aiming for 2 hours and I think I could have done it quicker if it wasn't for the sheer volume of people to run past who were slowing up/walking/etc.

When I move I'm going to start building towards a marathon - maybe I'll run it for P99 server donations :D

[Baler]

Well done Swish sub 2hr is a respectable time.
