Winter Warz 2010

Who's that judge from 411overkill? :keeporder:

Just fyi, I was a Judge last year, but I have not been asked or will I be one this year for 411.

Looks like punx will be throwing his hardware at this with the ole 411 gang :keeporder:
God help them.

I'm down for this little forum competition if you let me : )

Ill bust out the 2x 5770 with some mods :D

I never got into this forum warz stuff and I hope this forum never does. I dunno, something about it I don't like. Maybe its 411 that makes me feel like this.

Isn't this just like hwbot ?

+1 I think you and I are on the same page.

i like any benching competition.... thats why I loved our contest lol.


its ok, KAL knows i got some tricks up my sleeve for the bot very soon once i can get a pot that wont fall apart under I7 load :ohcrap:

Prolly just you kinda still mad at the 411 in general. I think any competition is fun.... however I dont believe any other forum ever has a chance at winning as team ironmods always seems to take it home :Dizzy:

hell every time pretty much jeff 2Chesapeaks myself, bill and gunny have competed... but now with the diluted classes it could get interesting as this time there are no cooling restrictions :thumbsup:

Its just a short drive for LN2 runs :)
Well if you consider 7 hours a short drive HAHA

well 7 hrs... hmmmm but ln2 is expensive :thumbdown:

Not trying to offend anyone when I say this but I'm not mad and never was mad at 411 just alot of douches running around there. The forum headed in a different direction than what I liked. Kinda like EVGA pt. II. Also the forums were always setup in a hard to navigate way and still are and my dumb ass offered my ideas in the beginning just to get them dismissed like I was a retarded monkey. I'm glad they didn't get used as we wouldn't have been able to use some of those ideas here in the beginning when things were being setup. We would have looked like a copycat forum in a way. Then the kicker of the deal is when the owner showed back up and everybody was just a swingin off his nuts and then boned again! Comical I will say as well as a lesson in what not to do with a forum. :laughing:

Can somebody make me understand what the hell this forum war is all about???? I seriously didnt get a word out of it, I understand the benches and the categories but how does team and forum comes into the picture, and how would be the scoring, how to register as a team, nothing I was able to decipher.....

Can't help yah bud, its a bit too convoluted for me.

Can't help ya either. I tried reading thru it a long time ago and looked poorly setup to me as well as it really didn't make much sense to me either. That might explain why the same 4-5 forums only compete in it every time.

The Warz is just a contest, nothing more. Any website/group can get in a give it a try. Its actually ok if you get into it with your website/group.

Problems tho

People waiting for the last minute to enter scores, which makes it a mess. Rules change to often and to many benches to run in the past.

every time..... people either no show or just enter all scores last second

I understand and agree.... there were definitely a few that needed to go away permanently (some did) but yea.... i guess with most forums kinda like XS.... you gotta wade through the BS to find the good stuff

Yes but the site owner just showing up one day out of the blue causing all kinds of heck, then just disappearing in the blink of an eye was the last straw for me.

Oh yeah he did do a few good things when he did show up that one time, like helpping that one person go away ;)

hahahaha yes that one guy did go away which was good. he took a few with him in the process, but no big loss in my eyes.

all in all OCA is in a very strong point as long as we stay the way we are and dont let the spam bs and argumentative crap show up like XS does. :thumbdown:

XS i can hardly look at anymore... i cant even post in the news section as I have to have 500+ posts :(

Shut up, you don't know what you are talking about!

(heh heh j/k man feeling a bit better today ;) )

/mandatory monthly jackfruit post :)

They started that after all the flame wars that would go on non stop, say anything about NVIDA, Intel, AMD, ATI or shoot just about anything and hell would break loose. Plus they banned a lot of people who would not conform LOL.

I pretty much just look at the sections I am interested in and leave all the rest alone.

Been a while :taunt:

I say we do our own. Draw out the the guidelines and call another forum out to play. Might just put the spark back into overclocking some of us have lost.

you guys wanna start a forum against forum competition? that would be awesome.... :ohcrap::thumbsup:

Who we calling out?

i say we go 3 way competition maybe NBOC and CP?

Its whatever and whoever. I'll polish of my F1EE and the one computer with one RAM pooched I have to get down on this. I definitely think this is what we need. Lets get it on!!!

:ohcrap: (.....scrambles away to do hardware inventory)

Man.... I am sooooooooo in the dark. Is it because I skip the drama queen posts, or? I hope I am not one of the Douches :blush: I like posting there because many of you are there. If you did not, I would not. Simple as that. But if I am one of the Douches I can fix that right quick and get a sex change =]

This is a hobby for me, and most sites I thought I liked turned to Swiss cheesed versions of themselves. Not worth my time....

Nah your not a douche afterburner I mean I gave you my old pot. I can't even remember their names. One of them got fired from there and the others I dunno as I don't go there anymore to know if they are there.

Sorry about my thread hijacking guys..... Phew!!!

BTW... I tried um...... looking for dice.... Any tips where to go without feeling like I am asking for illegal products? I called a few places and got the feeling they did not want to help me much...

I plan on hitting this up in April..... After I find a second XFX 5870 used and the Fermi boys are getting their jollies :taunt:

My three monitors for Eyefinty show up next week..... So fk'n excited.

ROFL, a good douche is hard to find..................... :taunt:

I get mine at Homeland grocery store for $1.39 a pound. Wal-Mart has it too next to the customer returns.

A warm bath with Hawaiian Salt is good for the skin and the punani ;)

lol.... Thanks guys!.. Ok... the categories I want to go to say I am to much of a Douche and am denied access. Do we have to pay for access or what?

Huh? where?

What the sam hell categories you speaking of? :clapping:
