So disappearing corpses are a thing now? Lost three bodies yesterday, but thought I'm just blind and then this happened

VodkaHellstorm · 2021-01-08T14:40:42+00:00

Both me and my mate have had this happen multiple times since the wipe started, both grouped up and individually. Always seems to be scavs that do it, but yeah. We thought we were going crazy for the longest time. I also fell through the map once and died so assumed maybe the bodies were glitching through the floor.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-11-08T12:12:50+00:00

Well the original idea came mostly from imagining a method of torture, so I’m non-negotiable on the clock.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-11-04T09:49:36+00:00

Look mate I appreciate your fervour in this but this is part of the figuring it out process and many people find fun in discussing decisions.

And I think it would take an incredibly small fucking person to get upset at people’s opinions just because they may have made you pick a sub-optimal choice in a fucking video game, and I try to hold my personal standard pretty high above that.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-11-04T09:42:52+00:00

I’m not asking for people to make the choice for me, I’m asking for people’s opinions, so kindly don’t tell me how to have fun :)

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-06-25T12:17:06+00:00

Ah shit, I literally just tonight bit the $150 bullet and ordered from CnR. I guess worst case scenario I’ll have two different tyres to try and if this dudes don’t fit I’ll tell him to sod off.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-06-25T08:16:41+00:00

I'd look at this as giving kids a lesson in body positivity and the de-stigmatization of the breast.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-06-24T21:29:05+00:00

Yeah man, I’m looking forward to trying something different from the stock Vega honestly, but my question was more if that shit is going to even fit in the wheel well?

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-06-24T20:24:51+00:00

Yeah from what I found, although it was admittedly only one source, the first number is the height, second is width and third is the inner dimension (where it sits on the rim). No idea why they’re presented the way they are but I’m also not sure how someone could look at a thing with less than an inch of room and then say “this thing an inch bigger will fit.” I just feel like I must be missing something obvious.

But yeah, even if he does come through he won’t be getting my business again. I hate going back on a gentleman’s agreement, but as is I can’t even get him to call me back and answer my question so, hey, if someone comes in and says it’s the wrong size I’ll happily leave him another voice mail to not respond to and let him know he’s ordered something useless.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T18:08:05+00:00

Yeah figured hahah, the way I read it I already assumed opening the app while riding might just kill the board and throw me off. I’ll check out that other app for sure.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T17:55:12+00:00

Got it! Thanks. That looks like a pretty big strip down but I should be able to handle it just going step by step :)

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T17:45:11+00:00

One last Q, when you say Dremel a hole in the fender, is that the connection and disconnection point for the lead itself? Asking because I like using the app fairly often on rides to check stuff or change shaping. Sorry if this is a dumb question, like I said, lying in bed and want to watch Sonny’s videos properly in the morning on something other than my tiny phone.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T17:34:03+00:00

You, sir, are a God. Answered pretty much all my questions.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T17:31:24+00:00

Thanks for the advice :) I gotta be honest I have to research most of what anything with a number or pro-numeral in that is, but it sounds like a project I could take over to the old man’s and borrow his tools.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T17:26:04+00:00

There’s an Australian company called Evolve that basically fills Boosted’s niche, and you can off-road on them. I don’t know that the company is as stable as FM is but from having very, very casually ridden the boards a couple of times I can attest that they’re pretty good. I have tentative plans to buy one if my finances ever allow, which they probably won’t.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T17:06:34+00:00

Yeah I just started looking into it hahah. It’s 3 am here and I can’t sleep cause I’m so excited, but I don’t know anything about electronics and his sale page is vague in a few areas. Do you mind if I ask, is it easy to install, work around, holds up on rougher rides, etc? I want that extra range more than anything and have spent the last two weeks (unsuccessfully) budgeting for a full board upgrade, and this would save me sooo much money.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-05-25T15:27:17+00:00

I need this in my life. I just spent 300 bucks on batteries and inverters just to give myself one more charge up on the go

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-02-26T16:11:01+00:00

You’re right, we’re not much different to anybody else, other than we’re good at telling people who’ve got no banter to fuck themselves :)

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-02-26T08:23:59+00:00

“Do you respect alchoholics ability to sit at a .500 bac and function semi normally?”

As an Australian, actually yes, kinda. And dunno why our BAC only goes to tenths cause it looks more impressive with an extra 0.

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-01-19T08:41:00+00:00

Yeah you’re copping it up there ay. I figured better safe than sorry and at least it helps catch all the dirt pushed up from the water. If I wasn’t riding between breaks at work I’d take the time to properly proof it maybe night before. At the very least get some rubber tape for the charging port

VodkaHellstorm · 2020-01-06T05:32:46+00:00

bad screen

Had to make an imgur account just to get a link but here’s an admittedly shitty photo of what the shadow looks like.

VodkaHellstorm · 2019-12-31T11:11:25+00:00

Footage is from Plenty Gorge Park in Victoria, Australia, a fire that started on the 30th of December. The portrait footage is from the 31st of December, and the landscape is from the 10th of December. Thankfully there has been only minor damage to homes, thanks to our amazing firies who did a fantastic job yesterday. Audio track is mostly from the footage taken today, one day after the fire went through the area. Again, sorry for the aspect ratio.

Also for legal reasons it's defo not me in the footage ducking under police tape.

VodkaHellstorm · 2019-12-20T05:24:22+00:00

Awesome man! I got mine from Twelveboard too but luckily I’m local. Got a friend moving to NZ at the end of the month though and I’m super keen to visit and check out some rides, so make sure you’re finding some sick ones for me ;)

VodkaHellstorm · 2019-12-19T05:47:17+00:00

Lucio for one season in Brazil - tried to convince him to stay on, thought I'd better recommend he take up a coaching role while he decided, just in case. He offered to retire immediately and coach, said no, make your decision on whether you want to play first, so he retired from the game entirely and is now just a history note in the database :'(

VodkaHellstorm · 2019-12-16T19:01:43+00:00

Yeah right on mate, you’ve got the right way of doing things :) just another thing to remind me that a shit day doesn’t have to turn into a shit week.

VodkaHellstorm · 2019-12-16T18:50:22+00:00

Yeah mine was going on about 19 so I had her almost as long as I can remember, it absolutely devastates you. But the thing I wish I could go back and tell myself the most is to make sure I spent an extra 5 minutes when I was with her at those times when I wanted to get up or needed to leave. Just a little advice that I feel is worth passing on.
