I finally bowled a turkey

[Mitera Nikkou]

That'd send my head rolling.

[Queen Octavia]

Which might double your score by functioning as an extra ball! Good thinking.

Now we really do have to worry about your head winding up in the gutter though : /

[Mitera Nikkou]

I wonder if my IQ is really my bowling score. @_@

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Mmm, time for a beer frame...

Man, now I miss going bowling. XD Next time I do, I'm going to play as Nikkou.

When I had my bowling class in college about four or so years ago, we were allowed to come up with our own creative names for teams. If I'd known that I'd be talking about this, I would've put more of an effort into remembering them.

I once nearly bowled my birthdate in two games on the same night. Had a score of 89, then, had a score of 129. If I had 128, instead, I would've done it.

And, yeah, I'm not all that good. If I bowled more often, I might get closer to my dad's all-time high score.

[Mitera Nikkou]

I'll be happy just reaching a score of 200. Besides, I get more exercise out of it than I normally do in the course of a couple of years. ;p

A nickname, huh... Well, now, they call me the Breeze. I keep blowin' down the lane.

Okay, not really. It will be fun considering, though, for when I next go bowling.

[Marky]

Well, yeah, my dad's all-time top 3 scores, he did in one night, are: 225, 194, 193.

Or something along those lines. His fishing buddy/cousin once bowled a perfect game.

[Queen Octavia]

My idea of a perfect game is not having any gutterballs ^^

I can't even win at wii bowling : /

[Marky]

Ouch. Well, hmm. I've never played Wii bowling...never really liked bowling games to begin with.

But, ouch. I do hit the gutter occasionally myself, and more often than not if I don't bowl very often. All I can say is practice, I guess...

[Mitera Nikkou]

I actually do pretty well at Wii bowling. I haven't gotten a 300, yet, though. (I think my best was 25? or so.) But I can manage that trick that knocks all the pins down, in the power throw portion of the game.

Damn, now I feel like playing it again. ;/

In reality I get a few gutter balls. But it's usually because my hip gives out. It hurrrrrts...~ =_=

[Marky]

*blinks*

The reason I throw gutter balls, usually, is I mess up with my wrist in some way, or with my arm, in throwing it. It all just matters on the delivery and whether or not you execute it or not...

[Queen Octavia]

The reason I throw gutter balls is because bowling hates me. But that's okay, since I hate it too ^^.

There's just not enough room to correct for my massive hook. In golf my drives always veer right about 20 yards... so I aim left 20 yards. Perfect drives every time! When I apply that logic to bowling, well, the people in the lane to my left start getting angry at me for throwing balls in their lane.

[Marky]

Haha. You need one of those bowling balls that always veer off in a certain direction, no matter how you throw them. A friend of mine has one of them. You just have to make sure the lane is well-oiled, or the bowling ball won't really work right, either.

[Funny Hat + Funny Accent]

I enjoy throwing a ball into the gutter and then watching it bounce right back out and get a strike....

Otherwise, I hate gutterballs.
