Hello dakkaites!
In recent weeks, there has been much turmoil and discussion regarding the Sinking Feeling Thread. Although it resulted in lock, reds8n has allowed me to restart the thread under the following conditions:
1. Assigned moderators must step in to prevent spam, if necessary.
2. Conversations stay 90% on topic, and not just a general discussion board.
3. Just because it has a sinking feeling doesn't mean that it's not spam. Just adding a quick sinking feeling, while the rest of the post is spammy does not make it on-topic.
Here is the premise of the game:
State a sinking feeling about anything you want (within reason) in one of the following formats:
YKTSFW *******
...when ******
I'll start it off:
...When you die in mine craft holding diamond tools.
master of ordinance wrote:When your lonely and deppressed and thinking about all the good times youve had and most likely with your track never have again.
...When you HAVE to bring up this song for ordy:
Truly moving.
...When you won't be able to vote until mid-college.
...when you get the holidays you've been looking forward to for ages, but then get bored out of your mind because all your friends are busy.
...when you realise that there is pretty much no difference between the seasons any more except it rains more in spring and it's more likely to snow in January.
...when every time you try to write 'the' you have to re-check it in case you wrote 'the because you're such a grammar Nazi.
...when the third sinking feeling doesn't make sense because Dakka corrects it for you.

When you meet up with one of your best friends you haven't seen for a long time and he keeps going on and on about My Little Pony. Not really me, but someone else I know.

I can relate to the situation.
When you get Mass Effect 3 and the game strikes you being dull, so very dull
....when your finished painting challenge entry doesnt quite look the way you wanted it to look.... well, its good enough....hopefully.....
....when you are not allowed to share it on your blog!
.....when there is an awfully tiny amount of english/german speakers here in france.....
.....when you really want to play the saxophone, but you didnt bring it and you only know how to play orchestra music anyway (and i forgot to bring the orchestra as well -__-)
...When during a game of MTG, you can't field a single creature without it being destroyed, countered, or sacrificed, and your opponent(s) are building an army
When you lose a game to Tyranids because you thought that Tyranid warriors were Elites so shot at the gaunts holding an objective (egged on by my opponent, I might add) to try and make them flee so you win, only to have the guy you're playing turn round and tell you you've lost because his warrior means he has 2 objectives to your one. Raeg!
Your opponent gets when his Thunderwolf Captain with vortex grenade and 15 Fenrisian wolves is waiting to get line of sight to your counts-as Abaddon to suck him and his Terminator retinue into the warp, only to have them leap across the intervening dangerous terrain and take his head, making the wolves flee the board!
EDIT: Also, for these "Assigned moderators" you mentioned. Is that the folk who were "mini-mods" in the original thread, or is that the actual mods?
Minimods are the same as last time, minus random and squirrel, as they have been reprimanded by moderators and we can't risk any more lockings.
...When you used to be very artistic.
...When you have one last test to ensure that A+
...When you haven't bought any 40k in several months.
When your colllege reveal them selves to be a load of man pleasuring himself and say they only want you in half an hour before lessons begin. as i have repeatedly pointed out i need this time to do coursework as i have no computers at home.
When your freind and little brother tagteam against you in MTG. to be fare it is the only real chance that they have of winning as my decks are not only well themed but also tend to be killer to.
When your deppresed. again. and you cant show it to anyone.
Just now:
When you need the toilet in lesson and: the toilets on this floor are out of order. walk upstairs. no toilets. walk downstairs. toilets out of order. end up going to a completely different building just for the toilet which, thankfully, are in order. bloody college.
When you work in a shop, and upon opening it for the day find a sleeping homeless person lying in the middle of said shop. And the person also happen to have a VERY upset stomach...........
YKTSFW you can't tell them the story of how at least one in every generation of your family has worked in some position for the railway here since it was first opened up including things such as building the line out past where I live, though that I had gone for a more customer service orientated role and didn't quite make the cut (group discussion test, some guy cutting everyone off mid sentence and stealing ideas) or it may be OT and get the thread closed.
YKTSFW the above is actually both a sinking feeling and interesting way to tell a story while staying on topic, yet may not be actually seen as such...
YKTSFW you're making a giant tree in MC to reach the new sky limit, you run out of saplings halfway and have to wait for the rest of the climbing team...
...When your teacher lies to you and you might end up with an A- for the quarter because the teacher told you to redo part of your test because she said it was incorrect, but she was actually wrong because I was right to begin with and now have to send that awkward email to the instructor about a grade change.
...When said instructor probably won't do anything about it.
...When this is making you killer pissed.
When both you and your ex still have feelings for each other but shes to scared of making THAT mistake that she made last time yet you both want to get back together.
When you realise your going to have to awallow your pride and BEG(yes i said beg) her to let you give her a second chance.

When in doubt, violence.
...When that sounds like a really bad idea. Prison would not be fun.
...When ordy should take up religion (or airsoft) to help him feel better.

Well i could see that it was a real competitive list not for fun. Also his die where painted in tournament style with the patterns that makes it confusing. Needles to say i only managed to destroy 1 out of 5 razorbacks and 8 to 10 grey knights. He had a mech list and i didnt have any railguns the end was expected.
Trondheim wrote:When you recive news that your brother passed away while at work
I'm sorry to hear that Trondheim.
Thanks man, I dont mean to weep all over the the tread but goddamnit! Sometimes I cant see any reason for my continued belife in god, when someone like him who had so much to live for passes away.

Well I no longer have any need of them, they where intended to form a part of the CSm army I intended to build, now that will never happen. And no fear, GK will never be owned by me. Whatever cash I get from them will go to my deceased brother kids and widow, I also sold of my LOTR army some time ago

Let me guess, Evil sunzs?
When you decide to take your FoW army for a spin, and get pummeld by a person who started playing one week ago, I think I need to work on my generalship
YKTSFW you lag off a cliff in MC after heading back from a zombie pigmen killing session. Everything lost and no way to retrieve it as they'll kill you as soon as you enter.

...When you haven't satiated your airsoft fix in a week.
...When you're afraid to let other people download your minecraft map pack because you're not sure if they'll like it.
YKTSFW they're adding a new support champion to LoL, the role I play. This means for the next few weeks I have to give up the position I am good at for something lackluster. My helpful tips will be seen as trolling by the depressingly incompetent...

Put it on peaceful
The Dakka server has no such luxury for the weak.
YKTSFW you're about to go on the usual daily adventure, something comes up and it's canceled for the day...
When you think it is smart to split your firewarriors in to 6 men squads in a dawn of war game so one of the two is in reserve. But then you realise you where just feeding your men to the nids piece meal.
Also when you hide your firwarriors for 2 turns so you cant use them for shooting because you think they will be save from the hive guard and assaulting thanks to that formation. And then you realise it only made it easier for your enemy to kill you.
...When you print out the Infinity rulebook and use over 50 pages in paper for ONE copy.
...When you don't have any money to buy Infinity minis after paying for printer ink.
So do I, I just like them having a variety mixed through. I guess trying to make some sort of new tone with red would probably end up being annoying in the end.
YKTSFW you have to wait for the music game thread to get to a point where you can slot in a song you found for it...
... when the only thing Warhammer related you've done in months is argue about the fluff on Dakka because you're not buying anything new until the new Chaos codex comes out.
... when you're going to give up the hobby if the new codex sucks because you don't have the money to start a new army.
... when you're playing LoL and you're alone when Fiora hits you with her ultimate.
... when you're doing a Nuzlock challenge and your Buizel gets killed.
When your friend tells you which train to get as you're going out later and it turns out to be 3 hours early; meaning it's the wrong train. You find this out halfway to the station.
....When you try to explain minecraft to a friend you say"you mine things to craft more things to mine with." Failing to include any details about literally building anything out side your house.

Who were you explaining it to? Knox?
...When you go swimming in cargo shorts
...When your only crisis bodyguard gets eaten by nids
YKTSFW you take out Pokemon Crystal for the first time in 8 years and the save battery is dead. The save files were all corrupted :(... Pokemon Crystal is an endangered species.
... When you haven't touched your models for a few months now, due to school and whatnot getting in the way.
... When you see other people's color schemes and realize they're so much more awesome than yours, but you're going to stick to the one you already have out of stubbornness
... When you realize maybe you SHOULD have put on the Necron bunny-ear head on because you've changed your mind and they can actually look cool (but the little ball thing has to go).
... When you can't find the one music piece that would be perfect for your army. (It's weird, I know)
When you're out of models to paint in between Daemonettes.
When you've decided to join in the next miniature of the month contest, putting off a conversion you were going to do for SoB for it. But, have no idea when the next one will start up.
Great White wrote:YKTSFW you drop a knife on your knee.
Ow.
Luckily the knife was neither large, nor heavy, nor very pointy. It only resulted in minor bleeding. If it had been one of my other knives I would of had to go to the hospital.
Speaking of knives, I once was sharpening my little pocket knife and didn't realize that I had sharpened it so much that a little sliver of razor-sharp and paper thin flash had begin to develop along the blade. I'm now almost afraid to use that knife.
...When you have a farmer's tan (yet hardly go outside)
...When you haven't played airsoft in weeks

Ok thank you i was wondering how everybody did it.
YKTSFW you're back in germany.....
YKTRFW you're back in germany.....
.....when thats both a sinking and rising feeling
.....when every bone in your body hurts from sitting in a car all day
.....when, somwhere on the motorway, you have been driving for hours and yet its still 600km......
Seem to have broken it, probably from what I had posted exactly.
This'll get that line in your sig to be an actual link to this thread.
YKTSFW the above may be seen as condescending...
YKTSFW most essays I write can be seen that way. YKTSFW you only have three models left for your SoB blog, one of which is the Exorcist you have been procrastinating due to the fun metal chunk.
.....when you are waiting for the sixth book of "A song of ice and fire" to be written. The fith ended witha HUGE cliffhanger, and its most propably gonna be years before the next one is done...... Argh!
...When people start talking about Kony. I really shouldn't have taken that topic here.
...When you've never broken a bone, and so are called 'weak' by friends.

I've never broken a bone either, but make up for it with concussions and scars.
...When your friend shows up on campus with a big white stain on the crotch of his cargos.
...When you might have to sculpt your whole Infinity squad because you're broke.
Trondheim wrote:When you realise you suck at painting
When you realise that your not the only one thats sucks at painting.
When you are sick for a day after having a full night of nightmares where you actually feel the endings. And still have to write an essay about a book for your dutch class.
YKTSFW you have no room for new music in your ipod and you're running out of songs to delete to make room.
YKTSFW this means you're having difficulty picking out song you don't like out of 529
YKTSFW at one point it was near 700.
... When you're cutting out a particularly small piece, and it flies somewhere on the floor, with all those dust bunnies.
... When you've finished off one assignment and realize you still had more and you wasted time on Youtube and Facebook.
... When you look at a MtG card and think: "Oh, man, that is such a wicked ability, I'm totally getting this one!" But then when you play it and you look again at the ability, it's not as awesome as you think it is.
When you come back to the game and realise that rule changes means that card now pretty much does nothing, let alone power up fireball so it can kill everything.
....when, of the 30+ people who usually make up the orchetra you play in, 25 decide not to show up. WTF?? We've never had that, usually at least 20 are there.....

That dog was born in our living room, our dog being the mother. I really hope he doesnt die!
This calls for a Ordo Heretiuc witch hunt! Find those SoBs and let them feel the divine fury!
When a planetstrike firestorm takes out all three of your chimeras and immobilizes the only Leman Russ Demolisher... (Managed to win the game with two vet squads and two lord commissars still alive, though )
I'm actually having a REAL sinking feeling. My chest is tight, and I don't want to eat, and I get this woozy feeling when I think about this certain thing.

Yep, brown and purple from nickelodeon. Late 90's, early 2000's when those guys were around. Those guys were boss.

MrMerlin i Know what you mean about the yellow when i paint my battlesuits i just keep having to put those damn layers on them.
killykakommando i was wondering do you have a multiplayer server that you frequent because it seems your also a minecraft fan?
YKTSF when you have to paint 13 miniatures for a painting vow for Saturday and write 3000 words for Wednesday and you just know that you're going to have to write that penance article for the B&C.
YKTSF when it's your first post in the tribute thread, and someones all ready patronising you.
YKTSF when you're on the cusp of winning, then three Sanguinary Guard die in a single turn thanks to dangerous terrain. If that hadn't happened, I could easily have won.
YKTSF When the eldar player you face manages to spread a single Guardian Squad over all 3 objectives.
When you fight against nids your withing down his organisms he only succesfully killed 2 stealth suits a drone. And then doom of malantai deepstrikes from a pod. He scatters of table but then you hear that droppods stay on the table even if they go of table. So my 6 fire warriors die in 1 turn he gets 6 wounds extra he has 10 wounds if that didnt happen i would be able to concentrate fire on his tervigon and maybe even win.
It happened gakking twice. The second time i killed his swarm lord in 1 turn he only had 3 gaunts left i had practically everything. And then boom, doom of malantai kills half my army thanks to his 3+ invulnerable i couldnt kill him with my hammerhead and he wins again.

Personally, I would take Blood Angels. Yes, I'm biased.
IMAGINARY YKTSF!
YKTSF when you buy the ultimate paint set for Christmas, along with how to paint Citadel Miniatures and the heavy metal brush set for the glaze, then three months later they make the paints redundant, revamp the book and pretty much throw the glaze back at you.
TheAngrySquig wrote:Well the BA would be ph NL and the GK would be ph TS so no bias there
Okay... I would compare the Blood Angels to the World Eaters (It says in the codex that they had a massive rivalry over who had the best assault army).
GK I suppose could work with Thousand Sons, but it would be a bit awkward...
Again, GK just seem to taste a tad too much like mozzarella. I'm not saying Blood Angels aren't cheesy, but the GK Codex is on a new level.

I used to use the dakka server, but my friend revoked his account from me. Now I use my hacked-craft that I modified myself. So, no server for me.
