Noticing those two were distracted by everything happening out on the street, he grabbed a ceramic chamber pot and—creeping up quietly—went for it. steelmaker83Yeah, this guy—just smashed him over the head with it. Pat It hasn't even arrived yet—not even a whisper. darkmarlin16 He slammed her against the wall, muffling her cries with his palm. Then he cinched a belt around her, stuffing a bandana into her mouth to keep her quiet. He disarmed... steelmaker83 He slipped out the window, sliding down the gutter and dropping into the side street. He hit the ground with the grace of a cat and vanished behind the saloon in just a few steps.
Angry citizens vs. the high rollers. Paddington They took their positions by the windows—dead set on getting justice their own way. kockar He had a plan...
Go ahead and tear down the doors and windows of the saloon on my signal—I'll handle whatever's left.
I hope you actually know what you're doing—just a thought. coastaldrifter6
"Just wait for my signal," he replied shortly before ducking into a side alley.
"Alright guys, you heard him—get your weapons ready!" she barked. I don't know what to tell you—it just sucks. From what I can gather—
"We just barely managed to get under their skin..." the sheriff muttered, leaning against the doorframe while he loaded his pistol.
"Just let them get here!" he said, his excitement finally hitting its limit. Nathan Jones98
"Saaaaadddd !!!" — he muttered. kockar vote
In that split second, a massive volley of gunfire ripped through the saloon—wood splinters flew off the walls, and glass bottles and glasses behind the bar shattered instantly. The deafening roar of the shooting lasted about thirty seconds before a thick cloud of white smoke completely swallowed the street. People were pinned down by the windows and near the doors, waiting for the sheriff. Clark I'm ready. Send over the posts. Nathan Jones98 They didn't shoot back. Then, out of the smoke, he emerged. kockar He was holding a lit torch. He tossed it through the window, where it landed right on the bar—then slid behind it, setting the booze-soaked floor ablaze. The sheriff instinctively ducked and started firing off shots toward... kockarOne guy caught him right in the thigh, and then this limping dude just started heading back toward cover...
It keeps going...
Looks like darkmarlin16 is headed for a rough fate.😠
He's totally screwed once stormybadger8 gets back.
Don't you dare lump me in with that group heading out to see Jason Campbell70... $100 is way too low for my daily rate 😢
I'd much rather be chasing ...... basically, I have a feeling the rewards here could be multifaceted 😬
EDIT:
If you were quick enough, you saw the letters under the dots
William Bennett53 said:Who says you're the villain here? Perhaps you're merely an innocent victim of a smear campaign and relentless persecution...
I mean, obviously he isn't some massive villain if the prize is only $100...🤷
The real question is whether it's even worth chasing him given how pathetic the payout is...
Hell, that wouldn't even cover a decent burger, let alone anything else.😳
Nathan Jones98 said:I’m just stating the obvious here—still looking for a bit more 😁
The idea itself is solid, honestly—it's just a shame they didn't put it all together in one go.
That's an easy fix once this is wrapped up.😁
I'll show Dorian (assuming he hasn't figured it out yet...) how to clone threads and posts...
Then we can easily stitch everything together into one cohesive story.😁
graniteharbor502 said:Where are they supposed to be? It is absolutely essential that we have one blonde and one brunette in the group.
Honestly, back in the day, they actually were exactly like that.😍
I actually caught up with one of them just yesterday after ages.😁
Everyone knows who’s got the fastest fingers here😁
Just say the word and he'll be back at it, tightening his belt again😬🤣
What a joke 🙂
How can Fernando Alonso and Nico Rosberg lie like that? It’s like they haven't even checked the forums. Real experts have already seen that Red Bull Racing is 2.5 seconds faster than everyone else on this track🙂
I mean, Niki Lauda used to go out of his way to explain things to people who clearly had no clue about Formula 1... but now he's gotta deal with Rosberg and Fernando Alonso explaining it to them? Yeah, sure, because they're such geniuses🙂
So have fun reading everyone else's stuff 🤣
I'm telling you, these two🤣
And look at Ted acting like he knows everything, claiming there's nothing more to be done😂
Meanwhile, you can clearly see Vettel knows damn well he can do better😁>
I guess it’s just🤣🤣🤣
EDIT:
Either way, this whole weekend was a complete joke 😂
It all boiled down to those grid walks, but for a driver to get absolutely smoked by Martin Brundle is definitely a first 🤣
nimblesurfer17 said:On the flip side, I'm pretty sure Kimi- Räikkönen didn't expect the guy behind him to just slam right into him.. he was holding his line perfectly, just like he had been for dozens of laps, thinking the guy following actually understood there was zero space there..
And yeah, Kimi messed up here..
Yeah, right... "didn't expect it" my ass.🤣
If that's the case, then explain why he was screaming over the team radio the lap before that the idiot behind him was going to crash into him..🤣
nimblesurfer17 said:Kimi was totally fine when racing Sergio Perez in Monaco.. He was defending his line, playing it smart.. Perez just lunged where there wasn't any room..
And a race ban for that? If I had a facepalm emoji handy, I'd be using it..😁
If anyone deserved a penalty—and I'm not saying they did—it was Perez..
Look, if someone like Grosjean, Maldonado, or Perez drives a line like that and crashes, and you've got guys like Alonso, Hamilton, or Kimi trailing them, nobody cares who was technically right or if a penalty is deserved... it doesn't matter if there was space or not. I am absolutely certain those three would have taken the hit regardless of whether the penalty was justified or not.😁
nimblesurfer17 said:That’s the whole point.. if he can run inches away from Hamilton for a few corners without trying to shove anyone off or wrecking the car, I don't see why everyone else can't do the same...
Ever think that maybe some other drivers just don't have the skill, the composure, or the self-control to pull that off?😁
Michael Diaz4 said:You have to give him credit, though—he was as classy as it gets. A hell of a drive, and he kept it completely clean. Look, we all know Sergio Perez has done some questionable stuff in the past, but Kimi Räikkönen was totally fair here. Seriously, class act.
With who?
Perez in Monaco. 🤣
If Maldonado or Grosjean pulled that crap, they’d be facing a lifetime ban from the sport.😁
I mean, everyone knows Kimi Räikkönen is a fair driver—it’s pretty obvious from where he’s sitting in the plane... but honestly, this whole Singapore situation is just a mess.👍)
That day in Monaco, Sergio Perez was everywhere, just driving like a complete maniac. Kimi just muttered to himself, "Enough of this kid, now he’s about to meet his maker."😳"
I think it was pretty obvious that this one actually sent his blood pressure through the roof. After that race in Monaco, everyone on the grid knows exactly what's up:
Don't mess with Kimi Räikkönen. 🧐 Fair enough, you can drive clean and play by the rules without any drama, but the second you start acting like a jerk, all hell breaks loose.😁
@TBF,
So basically, from the second he wrote that, it applies to me.😉
swifttiger75 said:And you’re clearly too old to be commenting on new stuff! Whatever, to each their own. 😁
@stormybadger8/">@@stormybadger8, I think if Kimi had two more names on the grid, he'd actually have the balls to go for it. Passing depends on a lot of things like you said, but let me repeat: unlike most guys, Kimi will play his ace card the second he feels he can make a move or when he absolutely has to. 😁
Oh, obviously.😁
Otherwise, it wouldn't be Kimi... at the end of the day, I'm saying if he wasn't there, those overtakes would just be a consequence of Monaco.😉
The guys know Kimi isn't backing down even if they try to shove him off or bully him... the team still has that image burned into their brains: "This guy doesn't give a damn, he's even crazier than Perez."😁
nimblesurfer17, doesn't that "Kimi left enough room" line strike you as a little contradictory?
I think it’s actually the other way around. It’s the guy in front who decides whether he’s leaving enough room to pass or just shutting the door. He's the one calling the shots on whether that gap exists or not.😁
Look, obviously comparing Perez's mess in Monaco to Kimi's situation in Singapore isn't exactly apples to apples... mainly because the way these drivers actually behave on track is night and day.
Good grief, that’s exactly why the result ended up being completely different.😁
In Monaco, you’ve got two stubborn mules fighting it out, but in Singapore? You get drivers who actually know how to play nice.😉
It’s pretty obvious Perez went absolutely mental in Monaco. He squeezed in where there was zero room to breathe. Kimi didn't give him an inch, and then he basically boxed him in until the end. If we're looking for someone to blame here, let's be real—Perez was the one who left no space to work with.😉
While we were out here at the Singapore Grand Prix, Kimi noticed the gap left behind by the drivers ahead.😉 He took advantage of the gap, and none of those drivers ahead even bothered to shut the door while he was passing...
The truth is, they could have easily shut Kimi down, and things could have gone south fast.
Basically, any overtake requires both drivers to play ball, and honestly, who's actually behind the wheel makes all the difference.😉
Look, you’ve got Perez in Monaco acting like a total wild card, where he barely even cares if he walks away with points or nothing at all. Meanwhile, you've got actual championship contenders fighting for the title on the other side.
They obviously have to play it safe and shouldn't be diving into high-risk moves. Especially in places like Monaco or at the Miami Grand Prix Circuit—trying to overtake there is basically suicide since there isn't a single paved run-off area for half a mile.
When you finally crunch all the numbers, the truth is pretty clear: Kimi absolutely shut Perez down in Monaco and showed everyone who's boss. Alonso and Button didn't even stand a chance—they just cleared out of the way.
The points are in: Button grabs 8, Alonso takes 6, Kimi snags 1... and Perez walks away with nothing.
The result pretty much shows who was playing it smart when those points were on the line. It also sends a crystal-clear message to Perez about which drivers you can walk all over and which ones are going to absolutely deck you.😁
Sure, Alonso's and Button's move might be clever in the short term, but Kimi's play is way smarter for the long haul.😁
Look, you can pull a move like that with Button and not sweat it—you know he isn't going to force you off the track. You could even try it with Bottas. But pulling that with Maldonado? That was a massive gamble.
And honestly, the most entertaining thing is just comparing Webber back in the day to how he looks now.☕
Back when he had zero shot at winning anything or grabbing a trophy, he was a total wrecking ball. You’d just see him diving in and squeezing people out, exactly like Perez or Maldonado.
Whenever there’s actually a shot at a win or the championship, we get stuck with Webber, who basically drives like he’s still in a driver's ed course. He’s constantly obsessing over leaving enough room for someone trying to pass, or just failing to find an opening where one clearly exists.☕
Drew Bennett68 said:I think he's calmed down.
I wouldn't bet on it...
There’s nothing left for him to go wild on right now...
And honestly, even if he does pull some nonsense at the end, nobody cares...
Sure, the cameras might catch it, but the director won't bother showing it, and the refs don't give a damn if he bumps into a Marussia here or there.
The problem is when he hits the big guys—then you've got drama. When he takes out Pastor and his crew, nobody gives a shit.😉
Drew Bennett68 said:Maldonado’s been quiet as a mouse this season—hardly any drama from him lately.
Look, he's clearly stuck in no-man's land—way behind the top-tier teams, but still miles ahead of those backmarker outfits...
Maybe if he plays his cards right, he could snag a seat with Bottas and call it a day.🤷
It wouldn't have 🙂
Just like how Kimi shut out Sergio Perez, this team could've easily shut out Kimi too—and then, thanks to those biased refs, he'd be sitting out with a penalty...
Unless, of course, the guy doing the shutting isn't named Perez, Maldonado, or Grosjean 😬

And even if they did, so what?🤷
He went off track before he even made the move... so there shouldn't be a penalty.🤷
EDIT:
Mark Webber is a genius.😁
If nothing else, at least he managed to shut one of those judges up for once.😬 🙏🤣
Even Alonso isn't half bad at Photoshop.🙏
🤣Damn, they should probably just wipe his warnings clean for such a top-tier joke.
