All my life I have been two conflicting things: a rabid unabashed Star Wars fan and a greedy moneyhoarder to the 10th degree. I pick pennies up every single time I see them even if I'm in the middle of the street or in a hurry. Conversely my walls are covered with Star Wars action figures and posters and my game collection is about a third Star Wars games. Just about the ONLY thing I can ever bring myself to buy is something Star Wars: my latest purchases were Star Wars: Battlefront then Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (just to give you an idea about how often I buy stuff. KOTOR came out long ago; I have bought nothing but Battlefront since then. HL2 came with my 9600). Before that was Star Wars: Galaxies, Rebellion, The Jedi Knight games, Episode I, X-Wing, TIE Fighter, and a number of others. So many beautiful Star Wars games.
But I have a problem. 2 problems.
One: I cannot play X-Wing or anything wonderful like that. When I moved from California, I lost my joystick. Gone kaput. Normally this is no problem: get a joystick. But me. I am cheap. Cheap like you cannot imagine. Even if it would facilitate hours of Star Wars dogfights, I do not buy it. It is parting with my hard ground-scavenged pennies.
Two: Due to my lack of joystick I cannot play the Star Wars flight sims, some of which I GASP do not own. X-Wing Vs Tie Fighter? HAVE NEVER PLAYED. X-Wing ALliance? NO! Rogue SQUADRON!?!?! Only on my friend's N64! The horror!
To this end I ask you for one or both of your joysticks and any Star Wars flight sims you may have and do not want. I shall pay shipping; the Star Warsiness pervades me enough to allow that luxury.
I need some dice. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> I have a bunch but none of it is mine.
I have dice with a faded image of power armor on them. I use the numbers to specify the number of knees each person's lizard has. The more knees the better. If you roll 2 30's you get a 30 knee'd power armored tyrannosaurus. I'll mail them to you if you want to pay shipping and handling surge.

Joystick! I must have joystick!
All my life I have been two conflicting things: a rabid unabashed Star Wars fan and a greedy moneyhoarder to the 10th degree.

And the obligatory dice:

Look at that beaut. It's purple!
Edit: Thievery pic remains at DOOM's request. In the mean time: THE DIE OF THE GODS. It's even as large as the gods.

All four buttons functioning

If i am declared winner
i wont ask for voice
DOOManiac's
Free soundcard and Joystick things
Make me feel super
whose wallet was wedged in his fanny
he wanted to fly
but refused to buy
so doom's joystick can be his new nanny

That's my bid. If I win, they go to TychoCelchuuu.
Joysticks are my friend
They let me play Star Wars sims
But money they cost
Star Wars lets me spend
But beyond that I cannot
Miserly I am
If I were to win
Finally I'd have a stick
It would bring me joy
Shooting down the TIEs
Flying in my X-Wing high
Elated, ooh yeah
So send me the stick
Take care sending it to me
Not to shock it dead
Since then once again
I would be unable to
Shoot Imperials
Thank you, thank you.
Your stuff would be the pinnicle
I know this sounds more like rap,
but please be nice and give me your crap.
Kareoke System, Mpeg-1, 680nm laser
SHG blue laser, red laser
I can't take it anymore!
i didn't make the DVD
but I need it now
for always gaming
8/16 modulation, MMCD specification
DVD Consortium, Comprox needs his revilation
DVD video Book, DVD Ram
DVD-R, almost good as a jar of jam!
and I don't have a jar of jam either.
(loosely based off we didn't start the fire)
I need your "generic" sound card;
this integrated one hasn't gotten me very far.
This may sound like a plea;
but please help me
take care of my in-game sound issues.
The DVD-rom I need for my new setup
maybe its colored like ketchup,
this may sound like a rant;
or maybe like a chant,
but please doom, do it for pance.
Wannabe pilot Caboose
can't fly correctly
I love my mother
She has no DVD Rom
Do it for my mom!
