ZCF obsessions

Post by ZIMDOGGY »

Been a while since myself and the forum have been in fun mode so thought Id squirt my warm load of entertainment to the forum tonight whilst I am at the PC with some time of my hands, and delve into something that occured to me about the inhabitants here early on in my ZCF tenure.

That is the sheer amount of obsessions that alot of the regulars have here.

I thought it would be fun to make a list and database of them.

I'll try and get the ball rolling. If anyone has any others to add then feel free to list.

If I have left a regular out, it doesnt mean I have forgotten you, it means I cant associate any obsession to you (i.e cant link any bias to CrimsonAvenger no matter how hard I try) , or it also could mean I have indeed forgotten you.

Here goes;

Hhm/Pariah:
-White cricketers to open the batting
-Black cricketers in middle order
-Black empowerment
-Vusi Sibanda

-Terrence Duffin

Himself? I’m not sure I follow. I don’t talk about myself a whole lot on here

I think he is implying that you and Diplock might be the same person.

Oh, ha ! Not, just a decent mate. I suppose I do ramble a bit though.

I've often thought this as well :lol: I speak to Dipaz a lot and the same idiosyncrasies pop up under Flakeman..

I'll take that as a complement :)

But if I have to list the obsessions myself (pretty harmless they are, for sure...):

1. Searching for photos of people and animals even remotely related in any way to Zim Cricket,
2. Guy Whittall!
