I ask you for your opinion...

Sassy brought this subject up on TS a few weeks ago, and I feel it worthy for general discussion:

Do you think Exploding_Silver sounds like the Geico Gecko?

At the time, Silver had no frame of reference (being English and all), so I shall now provide a sample to compare to.

So, go forth and discuss!

No not really but you and Sassy remind me of Pebbles Flintstone a bit.

I heard that Robocop used to have a microphone and sounded like Bamm Bamm... Every time he fired that shotty, he would yell "Bam!"

LOL...I think Exploding Silver's accent sounds more like a cross between the Geico Gecko and Austin Powers, just ask him to say "That's Groovy Baby" and you'll know what I'm talking about. On a side note, American chicks dig on English and Austrialian accents (not so much Canadian

), do European chicks feel the same about American accents?

I'm not sure. I just know that he sounds a lot smarter than me.

The opinion I have of oneself, is that I'm rather Marvelous

Exploding Silver's accent adds a sense of immersion into the game. POE is set in Europe, after all.

And he's a good SL. Likes to chat a lot, that's spot on.

Man is there a guest list for some of you SLs? I haven't served under half of you. I mean I've been gone but still.

It depends what time of day you play
I usually stop SLing about midnight English time, because I'm tired, thats 8pm EST, then I play SM

I suggest you check out the distinguished SLers thread, note any new names to you and join their squads...
and although not a ribbon winner yet, i suggest you add Panzerhans to the list...hes good

Silver's definitely one of the better SL's, as a talker and a tactician.

But the Geico Gecko? Not really.

**ThePenguineer** · 10-04-2006, 06:48 PM

So, I was speaking to a Geico representative regarding getting repairs to my car for an accident I had a little while ago, and half way through my conversation with him I was put on hold. I half expected an Englishmen to come back to tell me to spawn back engineer to perform repairs to my own vehicle.

Cheers, mate.
