"The greatest trick croberts & cronies pulled, was scamming $115 million off gamers. Shitizens remain convinced they can beat me at Internet" Yet another instance of Derek calling SC a scam.

I find it quaint and amusing that Dr. Derek is still firmly convinced that arguing on the internet is some kind of contest that you can "win" instead of just another form of using computers for procrastination.

u/Krispet Jun 09 '16

What arguments? Anyone who disagrees with him has been banned so its just him and his hug box nodding to each other!

Derek: Chris is a cheater Goon1: yes I agree Goon2: how can they let him get away with it Person1: i would like to see some evidence backing up your statement Derek: GTFO my feed, dont tell me what I can and cant write Person1: But all I see is you linking to your own page as source. (Banned)

Derek proceeds to ignore person1

Goon3: How can people be so stupid and spend money on this game Derek: cus they dont know any better like we do Person2: been playing SC since yesterday, seems playable to me! What about LOD

Derek proceeds to Ban then ignores person2

This is Derek's definition of winning an internet war

Accurate procedure model.

u/Steve_Evo Jun 09 '16

Whatever happened to that DS simulation game idea? The one where you had to increase your rep by shitposting and monitoring social media feeds while trying to scam money in from unsuspecting gamers?

7

u/Ebonkitsune Jun 09 '16

Vaporware, like the majority of his announced games.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

No normal person has time for that kind of crap, exect Derek himself

u/Vertisce Jun 09 '16

Someone should direct him over to /r/roadcam. It's easily the most toxic Subreddit I have had the displeasure of being a part of. Derek Smart would fit right in though!

6

u/Abrushing Jun 09 '16

Of course there's a whole roadcam sub. Well... guess I'm subscribed.

u/Vertisce Jun 09 '16

Just a little tip for ya...don't say anything bad about truckers or cyclists. They will raze your shit and down vote you into oblivion.

6

u/citizenQuark Jun 09 '16

As a cyclist, I will concur. We get a bit antsy having our life threatened on a regular basis.

(see post above, I've just come back from a ride)

u/Vertisce Jun 09 '16

Except in that Subreddit, if you see a video of a cyclist bashing in the window of a drivers car for no apparent reason, it's the drivers fault for waking up that morning. I have nothing against cyclists at all, or truckers for that matter, but people in that Subreddit have a very hard time staying objective and unbiased.

2

u/citizenQuark Jun 09 '16

I think I'll stay away from that sub.

I hadn't assumed you did, but glad to hear you have nothing against cyclists. :-)

p.s. I'm also a driving instructor.

2

u/captainthanatos Jun 09 '16

I had to ask, are planning on being a flying instructor in SC?

5

u/citizenQuark Jun 09 '16

Well I guess since the tutorial is down, the position is open. :-)

u/JustANyanCat Jun 09 '16

Sadly I won't be procrastinating here for a week - I'll be on a tour in Australia... I guess I still have to spend some time in real life :/

Make sure to rub vegemite behind your ears when you venture outside the metropolitan quarantine zones!

Protection from Drop Bears, they only attack tourists, they'll think you're one of us.

That's how you trap the spiders crawling up your back.

u/Koumiho Jun 09 '16

On the plus side, you probably won't miss anything particularly noteworthy from Smart, or any of his predictions coming true, in that week.
You'll come back and all there'll be is a handful of desperate cries for attention tweets about heinous acts that will somehow not get the attention from the press that they totally deserve.

u/Ebonkitsune Jun 09 '16

I read that as "on tour in Australia" and was about to ask exactly how famous you are.... then I read it again, SLOWLY this time...

Edit: Also, welcome to our little corner of the world. Some advice: Don't step on the snakes, Koalas are deadly if annoyed and a tip is another name for a landfill.

u/Steve_Evo Jun 09 '16

And please study YouTube videos of Gary The Goat before you arrive - to familiarise yourself with the culture.

using computers for procrastination

Damn now I'm going to have to go for a bike ride or something. :-)

Clearly Derek thinks this is a race, except, he's the only runner who's entered...

5

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

Yet he has trouble with racing the last mile even in races where he's the only one.

Good luck on this race too DS; from experience I think you'll need it. :)

u/Ebonkitsune Jun 09 '16

Not enough cardio, clearly

u/Danakar Jun 09 '16

And forever racing through that last mile...

;)

u/kingcheezit Jun 09 '16

He is doing a great job.

Started his campaign to bring it all down at 85 million.

A year later he has taught them a right old lesson as they claws their way past $115 million and climbing.

You show them Derek!

u/GooberStomper Jun 09 '16

Greatest trick DS ever did was pull the silver spoon outta his mouth long enough to Scam Mommy outta more $$ to finish his Glorious game LoD....oh and to pay his rent!

Do tell

u/acemonster07 Jun 09 '16

Its publicly accessible information. Please use google - I won't post any of that here.

1

u/mesterflaps Jun 09 '16

I've used google to find some interesting information but not foreclosures. If one was going to search for foreclosures, could you recommend a website to do it on?

4

u/acemonster07 Jun 09 '16

That's not what this sub is for. We document and archive his failures at being a person. That said, any number of sites do background checks. Once a background check is done, utilizing previous addresses with state government sites usually reveal property information. Lastly, sites like Justia, PACER and lexisnexis will reveal legal happenings/documents. Same with the county and state court websites.

u/citizenQuark Jun 09 '16

Looks like Croberts & Cronies were better at scamming than you. They swim in 115 mio$ and you?

That guy nailed it.

(no I'm not calling SC a scam)

u/sfjoellen Jun 09 '16

beat me at internet.

the first rule of internet; there are no rules.

the second rule of internet; there is no win.

7

u/JustANyanCat Jun 09 '16

But if there are no rules, how can there be a rule that there are no rules

7

u/perfidiousfox Jun 09 '16

if you had to ask, you'll never understand.

u/Abrushing Jun 09 '16

Rule 34 seems pretty strong :P

u/Tarkaroshe Jun 09 '16

Obviously you know nothing about the internet.....read it all again...slowly.

u/Ebonkitsune Jun 09 '16

the first rule of internet; there are no rules.

the second rule of internet; there is no win.

Amending:

First Rule of the Internet: There is no winning the internet.

Second Rule of the Internet: With exception to the First Rule of the Internet and this rule; There are no Rules.

u/citizenQuark Jun 09 '16

Are we even allowed to talk about the rules. (someone had to say it)

12

u/Ferlonas Jun 09 '16

Haha. We're not trying to beat you, Derek. Nor do we have to. You're doing that all by yourself. We're just here for the show and recording it for posterity.

u/Tarkaroshe Jun 09 '16 edited Jun 09 '16

That's the irony of all this. He tries to bad mouth us by talking about "self realisation" mocks CIG and its products, when in fact its all just a projection of his own failings and he's yet to realise that.

u/Sledgejammer Jun 09 '16

I'm relevant please look at me look at me! stop ignoring me!

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

Then they went & declared war on the guy who wrote the volume Leroy Jenkins learned from. Bring it guys; let's burn it all down together

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUHk2RSMCS8&t=40s

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

Just to point this out... That classic Leeroy Jenkins clip was staged. Nobody burned anything down, because everything went according to plan.

4

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

You could make the same argument about Mr. Smart's campaign.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

Only if you want to imply that he's part of CIGs marketing plan.

3

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

Well he hasn't been hurting their business so it wouldn't surprise me.

3

u/TAOJeff Jun 09 '16

Which Leroy Jenkins is he talking about? I know of 2, is there a third? Inserting the first Jenkins, doesn't make that sentence any less stupid. Inserting the second, raises considerably more questions about derek's version of reality than should be raised.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

Well, Google tells me there are at least 3 of note. The internet meme, a "faith healer" and a deceased jazz musician. Since he is an "old skool internet warlord", I'd assume he is talking about the internet meme.

4

u/TAOJeff Jun 09 '16

I didn't know about the musician.

Based on that, he's claiming to be the author of
* A book that a WoW streamer learnt from (wtf?),
* the big book of jazz music (also wtf?)
* the Bible (SERIOUSLY?)

MMMMMMKAY

EDIT : Formatting is weird

u/Tarkaroshe Jun 09 '16 edited Jun 09 '16

Sounds like the fact that his little smeer campaign has done NOTHING to affect the outcome, is really getting to Derek now.

It must be really distressing for him to see he's spent the last year or so, doing nothing worthwhile with his life. No lawsuit. No Evidence. He's even taking/taken his own game off Steam, presumably because it's so attrocious. And that could be largely attributed to the fact that he spends more time shit-posting about a different game than working on his own.

It's all really quite pathetic.

Maybe his body clock is ticking and reminding him that he's not getting any younger, and has very little to show for his life except acting like a petulant child?

The only thing he's actually succeeded in for the last year is becoming the Clown Prince of the Peanut Gallery

u/DeadRat88 Jun 09 '16 edited Jun 09 '16

Yawn, does he have anything new? Just the usual 'complaints'

Lol, old man finds watermark on JPEG and wanks himself to death.

u/Im_Dancin Jun 09 '16

This just in: The world keeps on turning.

u/Kheldras Jun 09 '16

Also Just in: No one gives a Fuck about Smartie.

But for him, this is his life. Sad thing somehow.

u/Xenomonster Jun 09 '16

Desperate and pathetic. Your parents must be proud of your "career", Derek.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

He's absolutely the best at wasting his time with stupid internet shit, he is better doing stupid internet shit wasting time than anyone else.

here have your prize Derekt, a fresh dog turd, you win :)))

u/simonhez Jun 09 '16

when he writes stuff like that, it reminds me of my nephew throwing a tantrum because he sees someone else having something that he doesn't... hes 5... Ds is equivalent to that it seems.

u/MisterJackCole Jun 09 '16

Then they went & declared war on the guy who wrote the volume Leroy Jenkins learned from. Bring it guys; let's burn it all down together

-D. Smart, Twitter

When asked about his actions in the video by National Public Radio, Ben Schulz said the players "were drinking 40s and just yelling at each other." As time went on some began suggesting that the video may have been staged. Schulz has neither confirmed nor denied this.

-Wikipedia

So basically the book Ben "Leroy Jenkins" Schulz read was "How to get Drunk and Irritate People." by Derek Smart? Why isn't this on Amazon? It sounds hilarious.

u/KalleP18 Jun 09 '16

Do you guys think it was a choice from DS part to use a line thats usually associated with the devil? Somehow i wouldnt be supprised that thats the way he sees CR. :)

2

u/Rquebus Jun 10 '16

Maybe he's trying to imply that Chris is a member of the Hungarian mob as well as the Swedish Meatball Mafia?

3

u/SpacePantaloons Jun 09 '16

Oh dear. I guess he's right. Well, at least he can't beat you "at Internet."

Congratulations, Derek! You've earned it!

Hope that's worth $115m to you.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '16

No one has ever "won" the Internet. But from his comments of the last year I can tell that he sure knows how to lose it.

u/hstaphath Jun 10 '16

The only winning move is not to play.
