Given psxpro\whatever-his-other-100-accounts-were-called and even worse, that spofta abomination of a human-being, have been allowed back after multiple bans, I daresay ReallyCrazy has probably earnt his stripes.

A) Your from France

B) You said you once lived near Dewsbury, that is just opening up a can of worms in itself

Thanks for your words.

Would it be possible to get my old username back? Can the ban be lifted off that username?

[Richard]

It certainly can, and the accounts could be merged. Whether it will is a question only The Boss himself would be able to answer. I'm sure Gelman or he himself will read these posts in due course and you'd get an answer then; if not, you can always em@il him to ask.

[ColdSnow]

ok, i'll just wait.

[superkingdave]

bring back psxpro, im sure he's a better person now.

[Flem274*]

Yeah right

[Trumpers_Ghost]

howdy all.

Ok here goes. I'm brand new to posting in this forum, but I have been reading posts on and off for a few years. ( I may have posted a few years ago, I can't remember) Anyways it's been a while since I've had regular web access.

My name is Scott, I'm 33 and am currently living in the bush hamlet of Creswick (about 130km NW of Melbourne). Iv'e lived in the city for the last 12 years and probably will again soon, when finances dictate. After all that is where my cricket team is.

My cricket team plays in a Pub Comp, which may sound stupid, but it is actually both a good standard and heaps of fun (some comp rules include: 25 overs per team, min of 10 bowlers (2 overs ea), max of 3 overs per bowler, retire at end of over that you reach 30, NO LBW, free hit for first ball, wides are bowled again with no run penalty, 3 run penalty for bouncers, drinking cans while playing is encouraged but not mandatory.) All this leads to a frantic game and plenty of slogging. It also means that the strength of the team comes from having a whole team of contributers rather than the usuall couple of stars that do everything. Also there is no limit on active players on the team, so we usually have 15 or 16 (plenty of opportunity to have a rest(=beer) from fielding but may only bat every second game or so). But we nearly always win so who cares.

About me: Apart from loving cricket my other sporting interests are AFL footy (this year Carlton to rise like the pheonix), Soccer (Victory to win tommorows final), and also like watching Rugby Leauge (but only the storm). As a spectator that's about it, and shows that team sports is definetly my go. One exception is Rugby (and cover your eyes Rugger fans) because I find it difficult to understand, boring, excessively violent, very very slow, yadda yadda yadda.

Outside sport, I like poker (i'm deluded enough to think I'm a shark) growing potted succulents (yeah yeah sounds like a granny thing hugh) playing (usually violent) video games and watching pirated TV/movies.

I'm currently without my beloved Foxtel, so watching sport has become problematic.
I was going to briefly outline my Cricket philoshophies, but this already seems to be turning essayish. Looking forward to chatting to yousall.

ps. wish there was a spell checker, my spelling and typing suck

cheers

Welcome,

To cure your rugbyitits i would recommend seeing a game (even a club game if you can find one down there) with somebody who does understand the game, you will find it far more entertaining once you have some idea of what is going on (it's not just a stacks on btw). Worked for one of my mates just last week.

anyway, welcome again

[Trumpers_Ghost]

I guess I overstated my lack of understanding. Iv'e seen plenty on TV and watching the All blacks aint "too" bad. The slowness of the game, and that exciting skill is not the usuall determining factor is what usually gets me down with it. Besides here in oz we have have so many options of fast, powerful team sport, that I feel that Rugby is the poorest option and I think that investment (money and fans) would agree. Still I'd rather watch rugby than tennis (something I actually enjoy playing). Cheers
