LiL Poison is a real kid,

he's the son of two famous Pro circuit players, "Xtournaments" and "Poison".

Poison is his mom.

EDIT: Wow, that was some bad intel. Poison is his UNCLE, not his mom.

*Snicker*... try inviting him to your LAN and say that.

-- Steve thinks he knows what being pWNed by a 6-year-old would be like, but would rather not find out for sure.

Hm.. I never said I wanted to play him, just that he took his mom's name over his dad's and he probably gets made fun of because of it. Besides I bet he is only good at Rumble Pit/FFA's. There is no possible way that a 6 year old has better tatical skills than an adult.

In looking at the stats for that gamertag it looks like he plays all day long in arranged games. There must be some gamer pre-school out there that I am unfamiliar with. I'm not trying to parent other peoples children but 8 hours a day on Halo 2 doesn't seem to be developing a mind with broad interests and diversity. If he's really good, though, maybe this will help pay for a better education.

Maybe Mom is the better player.

Dude, after hearing some of our very own beekeepers crumble in the face of frustration of dealing with a well-polished opposing team, and plaintively asking the rest of us if it's 'OK' if we try to pull the flag through the wall ... well. I have doubts that tactical skills are limited to those of us a bit longer in the tooth.

Depends upon the adult. Operative word being "Depends".

-- Steve isn't that old. Really. He just feels that way sometimes.

Ok, fine, but the picture STILL looks like a drawing to me.


On the whole name selection, it could also be as simple as:
Xtournaments is lame.
Poison is cool.

The picture looks odd because he is standing in front of one of the huge big spectator screens at an MLG event. (seen in attached)

Most MLG competitors play Arranged Games all day because that way they can play by the MLG rules. Wink

Magnolia. Nice.


Yeah, I seem to remember having to do this thing during the day called first grade when I was 6. Times have changed, I guess.
