To continue my lame & uncreative profile format here's an interview format of QTWBFAQs (Questions That Will Be Frequently Asked Questions)

Interviewer: w00t, you're black! Fo' shizzle dizzle my nizzle. wha da dily yo?
L0tus: :dry:

Interviewer: ok seriously dude, why go out and make a whole profile of yourself in member audios?
L0tus: I thought it would be a nice way to bring some much-deserved attention to these forums (hopefully others will follow suit). Moreover, I'm tired of seeing a new thread everytime someone releases an audio. This way, the forums look neat & tidy.

Interviewer: Ok, so how will this work?
L0tus: Evertime I release a new audio(s), I will update the thread together with all the audios I've done so far. I'll do the same everytime the thread goes to a new page. This way, all one has to do is click on the latest page to get my latest audios together with all the ones I've done so far.

Interviewer: I've noticed you classify your audios...underground, main etc...what's with that?
L0tus: yes. I like to keep a structure. Each audio comes with a title & theme. Underground audios are audios I make for the sake of fun, humour etc. They are mainly for more mature audiences & contain some language and mature humour. They are also a lot less serious and don't come with a bonus package. The main audios though, are quality audios like those on the wcr front page...these come with a bonus package, less jokes and a whole lotta info. This way, I can appeal to a wider audience by accomodating for most people's tastes.

Interviewer: So can you do an audio on my game?
L0tus: fo sho! Member audios for member replays. Gimme that replay and I'll have the audio done in less that a week...guaranteed!

Interviewer: OK, nice audios but stop cracking jokes and stuff. Be serious/professional.
L0tus: L0tus was born with a personality. Deal with it, nub -_-

Interviwer: There you go with that 3rd person speech again...psycho
L0tus: L0tus does not care.

Interviewer: OMFG! ypr pict4rZ look lam3...geek-alert/call teh zit-police/ captain clearasil yada yada yada...
L0tus: Grease my nuts biatch.

Interviewer: Ok, just playin'. All the best with your audios and stuff.
L0tus: Thanks. I hope you enjoy my audios. And please plaese please check this thread regularly & post comments. Thanks for reading till this far.

[Hammet]

[L0tus]

what happened to Im Depressed thats the funniest audio i ever heard, for real :cool:

lol Gald you liked it...it wasn't much of an audio...just me ranting on...but I might upload it onto my site later on.

For now...it's goodnight gentlemen. See y'all later. I've got exams for the next 3 weeks so forgive me if my flow of audios becomes a bit curbed...these 4 audios should keep you for just over a fortnight though...peace out.

[ShadowDrakeX]

thats awesome. u must have taken alot of time makeing that profile. nice job on it man. im going to listen to a few of your audios soon (maybe) :P.

[BlackRiderz]

I listened to the human one, and it was good,nice tri-hero usage for humans.I'll get to the others later.and keep up the good work.

[Dakonblackblade]

Man i listened to your first.Nice audio>laughed my ass out with the chick.Man your accent didnt reveal your colour but when you start talking about ladies,man its obvious like hell.Nice audio again.And tears came to my eyes when i heard walk in the shadows by queensryche.

[L0tus]

Hey guys...thanks for the replies...hope you enjoy the other audios...they're pretty sweet. And Drowning Pool rocks! (forgot that in my profile)

[Grommash]

I've just watched the first two audios and man they rocked !!! i went nuts when i listened to the story about the hot girl in the first audio. =D i'll def check out the other two later. ;)

Gj and great efforts with ur whole profile and stuff, i hope u do great in ur coming exams, stay cool.

[Spookify]

fantastic, your audios are awsome. Ive learned so much from you 2nd and 3rd audio and stuff, you put alot of time and effort into it and it pays off so gj. Oh btw this thread thing is a fantastic idea maybe all the commentators should have all htere audios on one thread, would makes things neater, anyway gj again hope to see more.

[PJ.iHoP]

Hey watched your first 2 audios today. Gonna watch the next in a few minutes. I think u put up some really great points. I play UD and never really thought much about the whole human economy thing. Anyways i noticed your APM is like in the 200's. I was wondering if u could maybe write something or talk about in your next commentary how it gets so high. For instance i played rt with a guy who had like 200 APM and all he had out was a keeper and we were harassing. He was just attacking peons and had his keeper selected the whole time so wasnt spamming buildings. How can u have 200+ apm in those situations while Id have like 70 average in the same situation. Thanks.

[Sly0_0]

gj on the audios. Yes footman frenzy is incredably noob. I annoys me at cyber cafes when ppl trash talk, calling each other noobs when their all playing footman frenzy. And footman player was like "i dun wanna play wc, it's too easy" arg

[SouL_FoX]

Wow, this is a cool profile. Good commentaries. U should consider joining the audio commentary team :D

[Orange]

nice, I wish I cared at all to do something like that. people would read it and go "HA!! SO THATS THE LOSER!" which is true, its happened before.

[Thehobbit]

you deserve front page great audios

[mattbandelt]

nice shit with the rapid share flame. I fucking hate that site, especially with the damn time limit and download limit wtf. Anyway good job, i look forward to more 8)

[thegame]

i weigh as much as you do, u im 5'7" =P

[L0tus]

@Grommash: yeah that chick story was pretty crazy. Staff thought it was over the top but I thought it was pretty hilarious.

@ameri(a: I really do hope to see more of these threads in the future. It would be interesting to know the ppl behind the voice.

@PJ.iHoP: will cover this in my next audio...suffice to say for now...getting a high apm isn't really hard...you can just hotkey spam but there's more to it...and while some disagree, I think high apms help your micro a ton.

@Sly0_0: tell me about it...it's like a frikin' joke...one guy actually thought that mass footies was 'normal' warcraft...."I only play normal warcraft, not 1v1"...nub!

@SouL_FoX: yeah well, staff think I'm loco so I'm gonna be here for a while. I'm trying to see if other sites need ACers but at the same time I don't wanna leave wcr...anyone know of any wc3 sites with part-time ACers?

@Orange: there's always some son'bitch who thinks that by shiting on ppls persona over the internet, it makes their pathetic life look a lot less worse. Ignore such people and just be confident & proud of who you are. :)

@Thehobbit: I know I deserve front page...but so do 90% of the ACers here. I'm sure if wcr had enough space, they would've taken on the likes of Zap, Enowe, Dan etc.

@matt: Rapidshare is like a fat man in pink tights who wants to lick your brown-eye with maple syrup.

@thegame: stop lying, I'm not that thin...my pic is actually 1.5 yrs old...you should see me now...I'm one skinny-ass mofo'. But it's gonna be all good once they open the McD's on my street. I'm gonna terrorize those Big Macs like my name was Osama!

Once again, thank you all for listening, see ya'll tommorrow...now it's time to hit the books...so many notes...so few neurones :(

[WoundedBlood]

LOVE YOU LOTUS!!!
ever since i got back into WC3, ive been having trouble with aggression, as seen in the UD forum, and thanks to aggression AC, im not having aggression problems anymore =)
thanks so much for these audios

[thegame]

@thegame:[/B] stop lying, I'm not that thin...my pic is actually 1.5 yrs old...you should see me now...I'm one skinny-ass mofo'. But it's gonna be all good once they open the McD's on my street. I'm gonna terrorize those Big Macs like my name was Osama!

[Amnesty]

Nice profile and as always: nice audio(s). :)

[Popz]

nice audios, why arnt you employed by wcr ? GG!

[RaTTle.SnaKe]

lol nice audios gj lotus.y isnt depressed there cause that was some funny shit.

popz u winner u actually watched an audio.haha

[L0tus]

Thanks for the support guys. That's what keeps me going...I swear, the mere fact that you guys take the time out of your lives to come down here to the slums of member audios is really appreciated. tHanks.

Just to update you all: I've been offered a spot as a website admin, mod & audio commentator for a fairly new site here in South Africa (now is that some pimpshit or what?! :afro: ). The site is pathetically small & the Warcraft3 community in this country hella sucks ass...but then again I've always wanted to do something about that. Moreover, the prestige is kinda alluring...hey I'm only human. If I decide to take the post, it's goodbye wcr: I won't have time to make audios or even lurk around the forums :sadwalk:

But I kinda like wcr now...so much I wanna do here...I'm talking audios (DotA & FFA included now)...uber strategy guides...and I've got a site (http://www.mywarcraftaudios.co.za) I've been working on for hosting independent audios & vods for all my fellow wc3 enthusiasts.

It's a tough decision folks. And L0tus wants your advice. :thumbsup:

[Spookify]

aww :( well i mean its a shame if you end up leaving. I dont particularly want you to, but I understand your position, on and ifyou do end up going link us to your site so we can drop you aline every once in a while :happy: and gl.

[DrZaP84]

I think thats a great idea Lotus. Go for it man, I will not being making audios anytime soon, so listening to other peoples and to give advice is def. a good thing, but yea thats just some random info. Great idea, Im sure you'll kick ass. And hell, wcr had a chance to have you, and they uh didnt take it. So good luck man.

[PJ.iHoP]

Personally i though your audios had a lot of insight especially the first 2. well thought out and had a lot of nice ideas presented. plus your extras were cool. you should still make 1 more audio for wcr about APM like u said :D.

[Grommash]

Hell yeah you should do it!!! of course then it would be very sad seeing you leaving WCR but come to think of it...it would really suit you being an admin for a WC site, believe me, and this way you can improve the WC community in South Africa i mean thats really something! yeah am telling you, with your great efforts am sure that in no time your site will be major. :thumbup:

[Spaze]

go for it, u should

[Spookify]

haha who doesnt love yoda talk ? but yea make sure to link us Lotus -_^

[Drunken_Jedi]

Wow, man your audios definately rock! Imo they are better than most front-page commentaries.
I'd accept the offer of that south-african site, no reason to stay at wcr, you can still post the links of those audios you do for the african site into the wcr forum, so we actually wouldnt lose you ;D

[L0tus]

Hey guys...sorry it's been a while. But yeah, I won't be doing audios for wcr anymore...Goodbye wcr. I might post links to my audios (I'll only be doing audios cos I'm too busy for admin & mod stuff right now). Will post link to new site later.

Good news: I'm still feeling skeptical about the war3 community here and might be going back to Canada soon...in which case I'll come back & hopefully wcr will have fired some of those trial commentators :whistling: (except Uruk & .hours cos they're l33t).

I'll release my final audio on micro & apm over the next few days.

[Spookify]

w00 ill be waiting..every second..sitting there drooling at my monitor refreshing..waiting for the next audio... :shocking:

[PJ.iHoP]

Right on Lotus. good luck.

[12-gage]

Lotus, you from South Africa?!
i thought i was all alone on these forums

[Grommash]

GL man, can't wait for your final audio. ^^

[L0tus]

Hi everyone: Just an update.

I thought long and hard on this one. I even thought about quitting wc3 overall cos I don't have the time anymore. But I think I'll stick with what I like doing for a while longer.

I had a heavy fall-out with the head admin at the new site I'm working for over personal issues & won't be contributing to their site any more. This means wcr for the instant win!!!

My last exam is on Thursday so expect an audio on Friday night. Sorry for the absence but hey, at least I'm not leaving.

[DrZaP84]

woo, great new lotus. heh awesome, friday night audio, which is tonight. Ill def. be looking forward to it.

[westwolf]

Hey dude, I'm not gonna be a idiot whos all like "DUDE U ROCK" and leave it at that. But what I am gonna do is tell you how good you are at this stuff. I just downloaded the aggression replay and was surprised to see all those word documents. I opened them and to my surprise they weren't half-arsed pieces of crap. The word documents actually had diagrams and all which actually amazed me. I think you definetly would have made audio commentator if you had just got a better mic.Your awsome mate, also try to sound more black/interesting because i like my audio commentators with more personality. DUDE U ROCK.

[PsychoTiC-iMp]

sound more black? LOL!! haha well anyways, I wanna know what program you use to record your audios...plz tell me?

[adv]

let's get more from this guy! awesome stuff!

[sid_44]

liking this......why the hell didnt u get onto staff???? omfg racism....? or am i being stupid/...loving the audios man..hilarious and informative...keep it up man!

[IC.Shadow]

liking this......why the hell didnt u get onto staff????
We've already been over that, and there's no reason to discuss it again.
omfg racism....?
Please tell me you're joking...
or am i being stupid
The last comment certainly was, yes.

Note that nobody ever doubted his audio making abilities, and I am sure the site he is going to will enjoy what he brings. He already knows what he needs to work on, and why he wasn't chosen here, and again, further discussions are not needed.

[L0tus]

Like Icy Shadow said, the story concerning the AC job is dead and I too would rather not discuss it. So no more "Why didn't you get the AC job?" posts. I'll admit, they had good reasons and I respect that.

sound more black rofled at this for a good long time :D

EDIT: as for the next audio, it's been postponed till Tuesday/Wednesday cos I'm going out this weekend for some camping trip...yay!

[Fa1t4L]

Have fun on your camping trip man ^^ Even if I was realy hoping for the audio to come out. But you cant make the audios all the time and you cant make them if your all stresed out, so have fun and relax.


ps. HURRY UP WITH THE AUDIO!!! :P

sound more black?

Lol dosent L0tus have enough personalaty??

[Hmf-Waste]

Very Nice hurry up with your next one please

[Uberkraut]

I just listened to your first audio commentary and loved it. I'm surprised you can hold a passion for wc3 in your current situation (unless lets changed from audio1) where you are unable to get on bnet.

Really great audio... nothing more I could ask for. Really impressed.

[Cured[swE]]

That Hu vs Ud matchup. (xyligan vs cantchat. ((madfrog)) :P ) was some pure Gosu shit dude.

[PJ.iHoP]

Dude that guy has a total of 1 post and he takes his time to register to write that. What a retarded idiot. A mod should really delete that post. There should be no tolerance for racisim. That comment is discusting especially about someone who is contributing a lot to the wc3 community.

[IC.Shadow]

Just so you know, rather than all of you making 15 replies to an inappropriate post, the nice thing to do would be to simply tell me about it. That way, I do not have to remove the one, offending post, along with another dozen replies to the original post.

Kind of saves me time, and avoids having your post(s) removed. :|

Anyways, all gone.

[L0tus]

...well...I didn't read whatever that person wrote and quite honestly...I don't care. But thanks to the mods and community for banishing him/her to eternal damnation.

Audio will be out in around 12 hours. I've finished the audio. Right now I'm just writing up the bonus guide on how to get a +200 APM, micro and other stuff... ;)

Oh yes, the camping pwned!

[sid_44]

man, lotus, u earned my respect. u put in so much time and effort into ur work.....

[Fa1t4L]

I love those bonus pakages. How do you actually bother making those bonus pakages?? I know i would try and start but NEVER finish it :P i guess i dont have enough attension ^^

[Stig_rename]

Hey Lotus, I just got round to listening one of your audios, the human-ud one. XyLigan vs CantChat.(Madfrog).

I have to say I am very impressed. You clearly know what you're talking about, I really liked your insight into economy. I appreciate the economy the difference naturally but I really like how you explained it and the unit count because of ghouls on wood working as combat units so only needing 5 none combat units on resources.

You also have a great, fluid and clear voice. Keep these up! I have no idea why you didn't get the job on wcreplays, I think you are AT LEAST as good as ANY of the current trial AC'ers and I'd like to think I know what I'm talking about and have a good opinion ;)

[L0tus]

Thanks y'all. I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't know that you guys don't benefit from my efforts. (Plus I just love doing this shit of course. I'm sure there will come a time when real life catches up and I have no more time so I might as well make the most of it.)

My audio is finally done! Just waiting for it to upload onto my server, after which I'll post the link below.

I've removed the underground audios cos they were a waste of my disk space and nobody was listening to them anyways.

[BraiNfreeZe]

sweet audios lotus man, i like them, keep them up man. =) holy shit that last audio was funny - gay gangstas haha :p it funnier when u laugh at it out of the blue rofl.

p.s : people who say 'omfg u are t3h sex i want your balls in my mouth' or something of the sort...are poopsmokers. >_<

[sid_44]

lol@ brainfreeze, nice audio l0tus!

[PJ.iHoP]

Definently your best audio so far. Really awesome. One of the best audios ive heard on this site. Hope you do many more in the future. The guide on APM was teh shit. Gonna go mass spam. 1 spam u forgot was useless ping spamming lol. I seen some replays where seriously there are like so many freaking pings. Pretty funny stuff. But yeah I really appreciate u doing it.

One thing I noticed is that at the beginning of your APM guide you say to download an APM checker by searching 3wchart. If u search this you wont find anything. The name of the program is w3chart, but even if u search that u wont find it. You find that program by searching bwchart and w3chart is another project on their website. Here’s the link http://www.bwchart.com/.

Your editing on this audio was really nice. Like I like how u go right from ur intro into the song sounds really pro. Awesome stuff.

[Ozpa]

Good audio. Was real funny hearing you laughing to that song :D

[Spookify]

oh man great audio. Absolutely fantastic, i was thinking vamp too ;) but yea, excellent. Loved the apm chart. very insiteful, loved it

[Aquialfog]

Dude, I loved your audios. So funny, man. Who is the interviewer, or is that just you making questions you believe would be asked?

[Spookify]

Dude, I loved your audios. So funny, man. Who is the interviewer, or is that just you making questions you believe would be asked?

To continue my lame & uncreative profile format here's an interview format of QTWBFAQs (Questions That Will Be Frequently Asked Questions)

i agree though :) very good interview

[zava]

very cool audio commentarys. I'm german so i dont know this community that well, but i can't understand why you arent in the ac staff looking forward to more ac's from you.
and i dont know what was more funny, your laugh about "gay gangsters" or gay gangsters itself :)

[MonteCristo]

I would just like to say that I love your audios, but I think I enjoy your accent even more. Your voice has this hypnotic, mind-clearing effect on me. I find it quite amazing.

[PJ.iHoP]

Lotus sometimes your voice reminds me of Bill Cosby. :clown:

[zava]

Hey sup... Im a big fiend user... and i also like dk / pitlord... You said that u would do ac's on other people games that asked u to... so im asking on a game i played cs ne on TM... it is a pretty good game.... but id really like to hear it ASAP... Id like to hear your perspective on the game....
well here is the url to it... My replay vs NE (http://www.wcreplays.com/pub_replays.php?get=17793) well i'd appreciate it man.. and i do know i didnt use burrow as good as i can vs other races... but right when i was burrowing fiends.. it was a sec to late... sucks but gg overall


-Edit-

And yes, i do understand i need to be a little bit more aggressive vs ne... but again ne is my WORST race to play against....

I also have a question for you on APM... ok like in that game my APM was 114 avrg 276 highest... and i dont spam at all... now i look at other people replays and see like averages of around 30-80
and guso are like 200+ (including spamming, but in battle just as high) but like around battle i get around 240... is that good? or am i looking at that totally wrong.. cause with w3chart it charts out ur apm over time in a nice graph.. and AROUND where the battles would be it would be pretty high.. Well thanks in advance on all..

[L0tus]

@Pj.Hop: thanks for the correction. ;) ... that's the zilllionth "you sound like Bill Cosby" comment I've heard in my life now :D

@owning: I'll finish the audio for you game on Tuesday or Wednesday. THnks for submitting. And yes, 240APM during battles is very good. That's the same as many pros in some of their games.

@everyone else: merci boucoup ... :D

...next audio will be mirror match ...

[zava]

you made it to do a good audio outta a strange rep. thx for that . i wanted to ask you if you could do an audiocomment "what to do as ud vs orc mass air, cause thats what all the orcs are playing on northrend and thats what im loosing against nearby everytime

[owning]

np. That was a good game. You're a better player than me nowdays I'd say...so forgive my over-criticisms sometimes.

Peace.


NO way near as good as u im sure... I have good if not my best micro in the beginning of games when u are with little units and against not as many units.... but after tier 3.. things get real lame for me ;)... as u can see micro is good in beginning and at end it sucks.... and u were saying i shoulda coiled the fiends when they were low.. yes dk did have to much mana in most cases... but what i like to do with fiends... seeing as they have burrow.. is burrow when low hp... but like i said... when they are about to die.. u see them go into burrow but b4 actually burrowed they die... sucks but gg overall... and i really appreciate u doing that... NOW I KNOW I CAN DEVOUR FF!!!!! Awesome stuff... thx again


-edit-
i like to use dk's coil for nuking with lich's nova.... thats why i keep dk high mana till i start nuking (specially vs ne cause of wells)... and that battle at ne's expo... ROFL>... UNDEAD sucked there ;)

[RandomMonk]

Great audio, love your humor btw :)

[Spookify]

fantastic outro rofl good audio overall (referring to #5) and so yea..lotus pwns? OH and also u should totally do an audio of one of ur games :happy:

[owning]

Ya, I would totally love to hear an audio on one of your games.. or even while ur playing with fiends/stats > dest... that would be awesome.... and i have a question about devour b4 i go off using it in 2v2 on my own units.... will it take + buffs away from my units or only - buffs?

[Spookify]

all buffs im pretty sure :/ good question havent used anything thats have come to that, somone who went pitlord+destros could answer i suppose..

[zava]

it devours only negative buffs :)
but i say it again need anti orc air audios :p

i love your work but that would be the thing i need most actually

[L0tus]

...thnx guys...will work on orc anti-air.

It's a tough one trust me...I've being seeing nc.dude use it and it seems almost unstoppable. But I'll try look for some good replays on it or something.

[zava]

hmm i could send you one which is probably good for an ac. :) cause after a long desperate time I became better vs orc

http://www.wcreplays.com/pub_replays.php?get=17972

[owning]

There is one out there of fury going against it and went mass dest teched with lich / dk combo.... at the end i dont even think he had A statue, like 10-12 dest's... and I also seen a game with nc.dude vs a good undead... and he also went mass dest's. so i dunno what to say.. i heard mass dest's is bad vs wyvs... but they went with teched armor dest's. so i dunno if they won because of better micro or whatever...It is very important to gain the hero advantage in that matchup..... i dont think the best micro could save u unless u have good hero's. the good thing i guess about dest is immune to magic.... so chain light doesnt hurt as bad as garg's....

[zava]

the tactic is good when youve teched 0-3 then its nearby unstoppable. full mana destroyers rape wyerns und aoe gets useless. you need the healing scrolls just vs the bats. important for that strat i think is harrassing the orc over and over till you got those destroyers. but i think l0tus can explain that better :)

[DrZaP84]

yea lotus ftw. it was a funny audio. Also should have devoured those summons. I was like OH SUMMOns still alive? GASP! But yea, Lotus > all gg no r/e.

[sid_44]

yea, summons killing all acolytes at expo.......

[zava]

and i have to add something after i searched a bit in this forum.i have to say i've never had so much fun in audios while learning to play the right way :). though I'm a german. I don't really know what you've done that they didn't take you, but even if it was bad i don't think you had bad intensions and hey, you shouldnt take a psycho too serious, right? Maybe I don't know the hell what I'm talking about, but that's my point of view from what I read. Go on L0tus, go your own way ;).

[huNt]

I love you audios !

and spunk sux -_-.!.

[Hammet]

time to kick back and enjoy a lotus audio

... NICE DL YOUR SETUP ROCKS

[L0tus]

@zava: thanks for the support dude. It's comments like that that keep me going.

I'm still working on that Orc v UD matchup but I came across a replay (SK.Hot v MadFrog) that got me so mad about the NE imbalance so I think I'll do an audio on that next. It'll be controversial but hey... so you guys dig that?!

[owning]

yea, summons killing all acolytes at expo.......

i coulda cared less about the expo at that time.. he was actually trying to buy himself some time i imagine..... aslong as the expo itself didnt go down... i didnt care if he got all aco's he had no expo anymore and i was going to attack.... the first time he went for expo... i did devour the summon... i wasnt gonna go back... when i was heading to his town to kill him..

[DrZaP84]

Lotus owns yeaaaa when is your next audio coming out?

[L0tus]

...like I said, I pierced my lip and am in a world of unbearable pain right now. It seems my body didn't take it too well. I absolutely dread the thought of talking for 30 mins into that mic.

...sorry guys but I'll be out for at least 5 days =[

[Dakonblackblade]

Now a ring in your balls should complete the picture .Careful man with these thingies.Oh and gay gangstas is the ultimate song to cheer you up.Expecting an underground ac soon man cause its been a long time since second one

[sid_44]

i think he said there wont be anymore underground audios. He already took off the old ones :\

[NeFaRi0uS]

He does some kick ass audios......... they are not kak :P

[PeaceBreaker]

keep em up bro. Entertaining+insightful.

[Dragosta]

i think now that this thread is almost off the front page means that its time to break out a new super cool amazingly awesome audio, we gotta keep all the other audio commentators in check as to who does the best audios.

[L0tus]

lol...yeah sorry for the absence..new audio will be out by this coming weekend.

[Dragosta]

awesome!!!!!!

[bananakingdom]

the audio you did on 1.10 and the NE, was total noob. They both sucked. Keep up the audios on the good players. Good work

[mattbandelt]

come back and post some more audios im going through withdrawl :) Cant wait for the future acs.

[Blacktalon]

Just what i was looking for thx bro.(ud)

[L0tus]

Yeah so I've almost finished my latest batch of audios. I was busy cos I'm doing private audios plus audios for another site so it's kind of hectic at the moment.

Glad to see the Original Pimp Mr Cygnus back! Great stuff indeed.

Oh and I got a new phone...Sony Ericsson T630...yay! Now does anybody know what the f*** bluetooth is?!

[Sly0_0]

[Dragosta]

[L0tus]

Yeah so this (mywarcraftaudios.co.za/audios/L0tus_Chronic_Special.rar) is my last audio for this site.

It's a FFA and I made it while high so that was lame but hey, w/e.

I'll also put this up in the forum.

[HELLOrc]

[Orange]
