I thought we were gaining notoriety with the Puffy-loving, muscle car enthusiasts of the world. Good to see we're still as obscure as ever. Wouldn't want any pesky "people" to read this site and our ramblings, right? :) As for Scott...I have no idea. It was definitely an "f" in "Darfh", though -- the letter was curved at the top, not the bottom. Oh, good.

My next hypothesis of the hour is that perhaps Scott was legally <em>blind</em>, and thought that "f" was a "t", but as you say, the world may never know. According to my super-secret admin tool that shows me the IP addresses of unregistered visitors, I've found that the multi-lurkers are actually a spider from an image search engine called <a href="http://picsearch.com" rel="external" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">picsearch.com</a>. Search spiders these days have the rather rude habit of opening up multiple connections at a time while spidering a site. My statistics script has several "known spiders" built in that identify as "Bots," but this one I'm going to have to add myself.

Seriously, dude didn't have too many save files, but there was only 1.5 MB left on the 8 MB card. Of course, when you consider his SOCOM 3 update file was nearly 3 MB, you begin to see why there was hardly any space left on the card. Also, interestingly, Scott just turned the thing in recently -- his System Config file was last dated 7/18/06. Not important, obviously, just something I noticed. But yeah, the whole "Darfh-Jew" thing was definitely odd. "Darfh"?!?!? That's worse than "Darth Vada". And what's the deal with all the frakkin' lurkers here today? Every time I log on there's between 3-5 lurkers present. Odd. In retrospect I probably should have taken a screen capture for posterity’s sake, but I wanted the free space on the memory card.

As if it wasn't funny enough getting to see what people saved on their discarded memory cards, hard disks or whatever, the whole "Darfh-Jew" thing is just too frakkin' weird. Maybe Scott talked with a lisp? A kosher Sith Lord...ROTFL. Bahahahaha — I love this kind of stuff.
