Anybody else write feedback for new/currently struggling people but just delete it all because instead of helping people you feel like you're just forcing your ideas of what you think is good on them?

I do it most rounds.

He said;

Sounds good.

We can hit the bars, get drunk and discuss our main event match at Kingdom Come 6 (I can dream can't I?) where we tore the house down which in turn will lead to everybody around us wondering what the hell were talking about with an evil muscle for a carnival freak show facing off against a grizzly named Bob.

I have. I did it this round.

He said;

Is that your way of saying i'm struggling or that there is no chance at Dustin Hunter vs Grizzly Bob in the main event of Kingdom Come 6?

Because I think I finally began down a promising path this round and was fucking around about the other thing.

 

[Miko]

Oh good, so you know what I am talking about when you think you've written a class A bit of feedback that'll really set somebody to rights, then look at it and just say "no, thats just what I'd do, they're going for something else entirely, their RP's are totally different from mine and I can't think of one useful thing to tell them that they won't figure out on their own, given time."

Giving useful feedback to somebody that's already fairly competent is hard, unless I really concentrate on what I am reading and kind of take an unbiased perspective. For the most part the best I can say is "keep at it, you'll get better. "

Neither, just repeating what you said for Manure because he seemed a bit stunned by something someone said.

Good luck with your promising path thing, and you never know as to that other thing. You might win that tourney to become No.1 contender for the World Title, course it'll be over my cold, metallic body.

 

[Skairipa Matrix]

Ah alright.

But thanks, I think your probably a favorite to win the whole thing though, my main goal is to be in contention for a championship by the end of the year. Anything more than that would just be gravy.

Just be honest with them. Everyone is competent in their own right. I told nightmare up there the ICP references were a bit overkill, that's not being a dick or anything, I personally think that hurts him in the long run. He seems able to create something himself instead of leeching material from something that does exist. It's a suggestion, he stated he was unaware as to what I was talking about.

I'd rather have said it to him to bring it to his attention, regardless if he knew what I was talking about or not. It's an opinion, it's up to that person to take the advice and run with it, or ignore it and change nothing.

By "Henry'd" do you guys mean that he refused to pull a train because he thought that a few drops of rain would mess up his coat so he was bricked up in a tunnel as punishment?

Spoiler

Because that totally sounds like something Saxton would do.

Actually he stayed back to clean up.

As well as Henry, there is actually also a James and Edward.

I was a big Thomas fan as a child. It blew my mind when I first put two and two together and figured out George Carlin was the narrator.

We had Ringo Starr.

I share that feeling. My mind was blown away when I learned that. The closest thing since then is watching Bob Sagets standup. Which my mom failed to do her research on, she started watching it ignorant to the knowledge. "It's the dad from Full House," she said. I laughed at her expressions.

Followed by Michael Angelis and now Mark Moraghan.

Seems the creators like Scousers.

 

[red ass skull muhfukkah]

My son loves Thomas. I think I liked it when I was young too.

For some reason I thought Pierce Brosnan was doing it now. Least he was on the episode me and my nephew watched the other month.

 

[Барбоса]

He was a brief special guest narrator.

 

[Lee]

Ah that makes sense.

As well as Henry, there is actually also a James and Edward.

Off the top of my head, and with what I believe are the correct numbers:

1. Thomas the Tank Engine
2. Edward the Blue Engine
3. Gordon the Big Engine
4. Henry the Green Engine
5. James the Red Engine
6. Percy the Small Engine
7. Toby the Tram Engine
8. Duck the Great Western Engine
9. Donald
10. Douglas
11. Oliver the Western Engine

There's also the Narrow Gauge engines of the Skarloey Railway, there's two more, one's an ex-factory engine, the other a Diesel:

• Skarloey
• Rheneas
• Peter Sam
• Sir Handel
• Duke
• Ivo Hugh

And then there's the miscellaneous engines that either weren't part of the North Western Railway, or don't fit in with the numbering:

• Diesel
• Mavis
• Bill
• Ben
• BoCo
• The Works' diesel
• Trevor the Traction Engine
• Terrence the Tractor
• Bertie the Bus
• Bulgy the Bus
• The four small/quarry engines that Rev. W. Awdry and Rev. Teddy Boston also appear
• The mountain railway engines

There's also another couple of Diesel engines. One worked on Thomas' Branch line and was also a coach (essentially a kitbashed thing that the Reverend made) and a later model diesel initially introduced alongside another that was identified by number, and I think later by name that I cannot recall. Some real world engines appeared too, City of Truro, Flying Scotsman (Gordon's brother) and Stepney the Bluebell Engine (from the Bluebell Railway). There were also some engines in Edward's book that were never mentioned again. Word of God gave them names and said that they were sent away for bad behaviour.

Shut up, I've got Asperger Syndrome. Having an obsession with Thomas the Tank Engine just comes with the territory.

He was a brief special guest narrator.

For a direct to DVD film/special that was made. I've never seen it, but I remember the adverts.

 

[Lee]

Yet you missed Harold the Helicopter?

 

[Bernkastel]

I have a copy of this...

My childhood was well versed.

EDIT: He also forget George the steamroller.

Typical, I remember oneshot diesel engines but forget Harold. I even had his toy when I was a kid.

Eh, Budgie was where it's at for children's books adapted into TV shows featuring anthropomorphic helicopters anyway.

 

[Lee]

Budgie was a poor mans Jimbo.

Me too, I've also got a boxed set of the first 26 books (the one's written by Rev W Awdry not his son, Christopher).

George was a douche that only served to help the narrow gauge engine I can't remember the name of get over the fact that he needed bigger wheels. Appeared in all of one story, I believe and not even an especially memorable one.
