No, "attacks" is not a verb. Rather, it is a noun. An EV attack is much like a heart attack. They both come out of nowhere, and usually take oxygen away from the brain. Basically, it happens whenever you see an ordinary thing in real life (wake up, all you LED-burned mac addicts) and it just reminds you of EV, and you immediately think of the last time you played and how much you want to play right then.

Examples from my recent life:

At school, a bunch of flyers were posted everywhere describing a 3V3 Basketball tournament being scheduled. 3V3. EV3. My heart skipped a beat when I saw that the first time. After a while, I just laughed to myself whenever I saw one.

On a canoe trip to Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario, we passed signs telling us where to get off the highway if we wanted to go to Aurora. I smiled at that. "That's 700 lightyears away!" (No, I didn't really say that.)

And so on. Yeah, I know, technically those were EVN attacks. Shut up. Please post your most memorable EV attacks if you've had any.

-Your friendly, neighborhood Rawzer.

I don't believe it. Was I too offensive? Does everyone hate me? Or is no one else reminded of EV when they see or hear anything? There's got to be someone out there with the same affliction. There has to be. Who are you?!!! C'mon, everyone, it doesn't matter if you didn't get it bad, an EV attack can just be "Hey, that sounds/looks familiar..." Please, feel free to post away!

Oh yeah,

<bump>

Whenever I hear the french word Ťcourierť (mail) I think of the ship of the same name. But this one faded away rapidly. More recently, I was reading a book in which about rebellions and stuff which made me smile. Other than this, no activity has let me have an Ťadrenaline rushť for EV, aside from the thought of EV itself.

I must say, the first time I read this, it compleatly baffled me. I mean what is the point? Maybe it is a bit funny. It problmy should belong to EV B&B.; I have never seen anything like this before, and this is plan weird. I have no idea where this is going...

You're right, this has no point, but I've gotten away with worse, I think. I guess I finally made a failed topic. That almost never happens to me. <sniff> Oh well, on with life.

BTW, what does Demord mean? I never what?

(edit) Hey, 801 posts, neat. (/edit)

I don't have a French/English dictionary, but it reads like this:
ŤI won't budge an inchť.
Which isn't true!

<me thinks back to all the off-topic topics Rawzer has posted. Then hurt myself thinking of so many things.
(Back to the topic) Every time my friend talks about vettes, I start to play the game in my head. There are other times, but I can't remember them.

I must spend too much time on B&B; because this topic is not weird at all. In fact it's quite normal and rather tame. I mean, the topic about Nazi's having a point I thought was definitely on the edge.... This is good wholesome fun

That topic was AJ Bob indulging his masochistic tendencies - while some of his points made sense, he put them across so badly and likened himself to the Nazi's - not a formula for good response :D.

As for the topic... hmm...

I've had a few occasions when I looked up at the sky at night and suddenly thought 'I want to play EV'. I can't think of anything else, at the moment...
