I need something crazy to write about because it's been like almost a year. Wait. Can I ramble without sounding like a senile old wacko? Too lazy to look up the definition. Ok I'll look it up sheesh!

Insult to Injury

How do you know you're good? When you can make a lot of noobs cry then you are good. However I have made it past the stage of goodness. I have become a Hero Wars legend. When you can beat someone in the most embarrassing way possible at least 5 times, then you can call yourself a legend. Beating the enemy with an army of Peons seems to be the key. I couldn't have done it without the help of Super.Gnome :D

Hero Wars is a custom game in the PC game Warcraft 3. Each player starts off with a hero and do whatever it takes to win. If you don't like your hero, or if you can't play well with it, or if you're just getting owned, then there are other ways to victory. Players can upgrade their troops to a formidable level, build super strong defensive towers, hire mercaneries, or send waves of units with varying abilities to attempt to destroy the enemy Farm.

Which brings me to my next point: the Peon. The Peon is a builder, not meant for combat. It's damage is weak, it attacks slow, and has very low survivability. Even an army of these would die quick if not closely protected.

Winning with an army of Peons and Priests (another laughably weak unit not meant for combat) is like a kick in the nuts. So without further ado, here is proof. "Pics or it didn't happen!"

An Ancient Alien Weapon

When I was 15 years old, I stumbled upon what I believed to be the formula for a biological alien weapon; the Zerg. But before I can get on to the Zerg formula, I have to establish a setting first, so here goes.

In Ohio during the middle of every Sophomore's year, they have to take a test called the OGT (Ohio Graduation Test). This test must be completed before the student graduates. If you fail the OGT, you are stupid enough to be pitied on. Fail it more than once - and no offense to anyone - but you are mentally retarded. I almost failed the Writing portion and that is my only weak point school-wise.

I had just completed 1 of the 5 portions of the OGT (I can't remember which), and started my usual sleep till the bell rings. Turns out my desk was really cold and that made my hands freezing which in turn woke me up. I had been drooling in my sleep so I casually reached inside my bag to start doing my Biology homework with my Biology textbook so I could cover it up.

While flipping the pages I stumbled on something very interesting. Something that could only make since if you wake up at 6 in the morning every day. Some sort of experiment with biological ingredients no Average Joe could come up with!

Basically you get a 10 gallon aquarium tank and fill it with dirt, and have enough water in there to make a miniature "pond" as well. You plant Mung Beans (a bean that requires constant hot weather that grows in India) in the dirt. Once there's enough green to Photosynthesize, you add 10 crickets and 10 potato bugs. In the "pond" you add 10 Daphnia (aka Water Fleas) which feed on algae? If I'm not mistaken I think you also add a couple Guppies to feed on the Water Fleas.

What does this have to do with the Zerg? Given a few million years they may evolve into the creatures we fear most. But most likely not. Radiation may make things interesting, but probably not interesting enough. If there were any species on Earth likely enough to become the Zerg, it would have to be African Army Ants. Not only do they live in colonies, but they are famous for swarming and consuming anything in their path.

This is bettadud and you just got rambled.

EDIT: I was rummaging through old school work and I actually found the paper I wrote it down on! Haha, if anyone is even interested the ingredients are as follows:

Plants: Grass seeds, Clover seeds, 10 Mung Bean seeds, Algae, 2 Anacharis strands, 3 Fontinallis strands.

Animals: 6 Mealworms, 6 Crickets, 4-6 Potato Bugs, 3 Earthworms, 4 Guppies or Platys, Pond Snails & Black Ram's Horn Snails, 10 Daphnia

So some punk named Steve says I should blog and stuff. I'm one of those guys who totally opposes posting your life on the internet. Like: "Today, I nailed a centipede to the wall." wait that actually sounds interesting....anyway...

What am I? To the biased, I am Average. White Male. Average Height. Average Weight. Average Intelligence. Skill-wise, the only things I am good at are video games, and making things up. Everything else - I'm going to be honest here - I am terrible at. My AS has held me back 3 years socially, and because I wasn't born good at anything useful, people have come to make me believe I am inferior. However, like an Aerosmith song, "You've got to lose to know how to win"!

I am not going to blog about my past. The content of my posts will look like I have gone Senile. At least it would if I was really old! Hence the title Betta Rambles. Hope this delays your boredom.
