    We don't have a drinking problem in Wild Cards. We get drunk, we fall down, no problem.

    [Oct 1st sexytime update: We got interviewed by TenTonHammer! Click here.]


    Have you ever said any of the following?

    - "Man! I wish I could play this game with only one hand*. I keep having to put my beer down to fight bad guys."

    - "If I hear one more teenager screaming orders at me over Vent I'm going to start a foundation dedicated to enforcing mandatory vasectomies for stupid parents."

    - "I'm tired of guilds with play time requirements, DKP systems, or hordes of drama-laden idiots running around getting in the way of my good times."

    If so, then the WildCards may be the place for you! We're a bunch of casual players interested in doing our own thing and having a good time while doing it. Group, or don't group. Focus on a main, or level a bunch of alts. PvP, or PvE; we're here to have fun and hang out in good company - not have end game content on farm within a month.

    The WildCards are part of the Unrepentant gaming community; we're a bunch of overgrown kids in our 30's (with some 20-somethings and 40-somethings for seasoning) who came together because we think the company you keep is more important than the games you play. You can find Unrepentant players in a whole mess of MMOs (we're currently focusing on Aion and Champs), and we're also active in Steam games such as L4D, TF2 and Borderlands.

    If you're looking for a good group of folks to goof around with while kicking a generous amount of butt, then begin your journey toward Ultimate Sexiness by clicking this link.

    Now go! Hunt! Kill Skuls!






    (*If you read, "Man! I wish I could play this game with only one hand", and your mind IMMEDIATELY went somewhere else with the second half of that sentence, you are *definitely* the kind of person that would fit in with us. Not because we're perverts, but because you've got just the kind of flexible wit we appreciate.

    Also, because we're perverts.)



    I am new to champions and I feel I meet the Criteria. When I get off work I am going to follow the link to try and signup. Is there anything special I need to do?

    Bring beer. And take off your pants.

    I'm not sure what conclusions or inferences you've drawn from the previous sentence, but if you still apply then chances are excellent you belong with us. Or you're just cheap and put out, in which case we definitely want you.

    Hah, Gallagher. He was just performing down by me, actually. Remember thinking how odd it was that he was STILL out there, doing the act. xD Plus he was at The Improv, which is a admittedly a highly regarded venue, but SMALL. I mean it's the classic wooden stage with the brick wall behind it comedy club setup. The audience is like a dining area with tables, etc. Must have been interesting to say the least. Almost wish I'd gone now, actually..... You know, and sat in the back. :rolleyes:

    I don't think it's the same guy. If I remember correctly, the original Gallagher sold the act to his brother (or some other relation) some years ago, who continued performing as Gallagher.

    For anyone out there who might be considering joining our group, here's an example of the type of people we have:

    I'm not much of a leader. Yet I was able to get together a group of about 15 people, within the span of about 15 minutes, to go after and kill Grond not once, but twice in rapid succession.

    No drama, few mishaps. There were two 40s (neither of us a tank), a 39, a 37, a 32 and the rest were all lower-leveled characters that sidekicked up. I think we had maybe two deaths.

    *Note: Both times, he'd been damaged pretty heavily, to about half or less HP. >_>

    But still, not bad for a group of people whose average level was around 20, and some of whom had just joined our chat channel to get to know us a bit before. And a group who had to put up with my horrible "coordination" and "directions".

    I'd also like to thank Kmad and Stormbringer for helping to set up said teams.

    Beer and whiskey, certainly things to be thankful for. I'd like to raise my glass and tip my hat to the legendary cuban rum masters (which is not a beach volleyball tournament even if it sounds like one).

    Keep up the work, amigos, and keep sending your bottled sunshine to where it's most needed, e.g. the northern parts of europe!

    Ah, this WAS true, but they had a falling out and "original" Gallagher sued "brother" Gallagher to stop him from performing. Now "original" Gallagher continues to perform the show.

    Can anyone name ALL the drivers and vehicles on the Wacky races?

    Yes you will say that global warming and the credit crash may be more pressing matters but what is the REAL question...

    and that is

    Who drove the the Arkansas Chugabug

    In response to the Wacky Races and BAC and I suppose as always.......pants.

    Many of you reading the thread may be thinking, I remember the Wacky Races and you will be muliing over ....how much did the Creepy Coupe drivers the gruesome twosome (Big Gruesome and Little Gruesome) actually drink prior to the races.

    Well I have the answer, but please do not tell anyone or post this on a internet forum for discussion. This is just for you and me, and possibily Mrs Miggins at No 42 but NOBODY else.

    Driving aid drinks
    To start with 5 swift pints of 5% lager stella or such like, this reduces nerves and allows a driver to think more clearly.
    This is followed by 3 double gins to assist reflexes (gin always makes you dance).
    Then 2 single malt whisky's to make you funny and attractive to the opposite sex.
    Finally 3 Pimms, this lets you open one eye an see the pavement when your driving (to open two would be stupid at this point and result in double vision)
    BAC an acceptable 0.66.
    This drinking style was first used by Lewis Hamilton and then by Jenson Button.
    Both did not wear pants.

    Since I'm going out of town for the holiday, I'm just gonna wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving right now.

    Unless you are unfortunate enough to live in a country that doesn't celebrate this day. In which case, Happy Your Country Sucks Day!


    (Seriously. It's a holiday devoted to gluttony, good food, and a football game. Oh, and some crap like "thankfulness" or something. Whatev.)

    More seriously, it started as a celebration that there would be enough food for the winter, and a feast to eat up all the food that couldn't be stored.

    Indeed. While your guild probably choked and died due to inactivity, I had to go through and clear some inactive members the other day because we had hit the character limit in our main guild (for probably the fifth or sixth time now), and we're still getting new applicants all the time.
