blatherings from the bilge

Going to keep this ooc for now as it is simpler to process for me currently.

I just got back from the doctor where they gave me the latest results of the imaging.  The bad news is... many of the cancerous nodes have grown from 20-30 percent in size which means that chemo and my body are not keeping up with the growth rate of the demonic cancer.

The good news is that there is still hope in the form of new drug therapies based on PD-1/PD-L1 and the immune system.  These drugs "only" have a few side effects (other than extreme fatigue) which are all based around it causing the immune system to attack the victim's own body, such as colitis or other nastiness which can be very traumatic in its scope.

I had the first treatment of the PD-1 drug today.  Now it is a "wait and see" process

ScumFlash: HoF of HoF's April 2017

Thank you for the mails of asking me when the net HoF of HoF's would get posted. I hadn't forgotten. Yes yes, normally I do it in the first weekend of the month. But sadly I had actual work to do, instead of laying back waiting for something nice to complain about on the interwebs, like the rest of you.

Another Month, another bunch of work to give you your monthly standings. How to get on the HoF of HoF's you ask? Well, let me give you the rules ones more:

How to become part of the HoF of HoF's:
1. Be in a top 30 spot of HoF Heroes, HoF Fortress or HoF Pets
2. Be a member of the Severed Tongue

And that is all!

Interesting nonsense:
  • For as long as this HoF of HoF's excists, Veriz aka The Spying Kitty with the Sharp Claws, has been firmly on top of it. Grog69 managed to get the two points back he lost last month, but is still far behind. Well... far behind... his gap to number 3 on the list, Aronszajn,  increased from 26 to 40 points.
  • The Scumlord himself, who is still number 4 on the list, is getting closer to Aronszajn too, Decreasing the gap to only 4 points. Next month Aronszajn, next month...
  • Then another surprise. Treak took back his number 5 spot from our favourite ScumSnake, Adder111. That itself is not saying that much. But he did it by Climbing 14 spots in the different HoF's and that is quite a jump indeed. Gratz on that Treak.
  • So sadly for us, we again have 2 non Scum in the top 5. But with Son of Dog, Kanat and Jugger we still have 7 Scum in top 10. And ofcourse 50 Scum in top 101 ;)
  • Newest addition to the HoF of HoF's is DjeDD  on spot 97 who skyrocketed to the 23rd spot of Fortress making him eligeble to be part of this mary band of misfits.
  • Biggest regular climbers are Zloy with 13 spots, Gokuking and Endrega with 9 spots, Tofurkey (well done dude) and Quilp with 7 spots and Temprella with 6 spots.
  • There are lots of players that gained 5 spots this month. ACGM and Dolgan Elfbane, to name a few (only naming Scum ofcourse ;) But I hereby give special gratz to Rido Fatesmiter. Seeing he not only climbed 5 spots this month, but already gained 9 spots last month. Come on Rido, top 25 is awaiting your arrival.
  • Biggest loser this month is Nemaveto with 18 spots, but he stopped playing, so he doesn't care at all. And someone should wake up SlackerSilverlance, seeing he dropped 10 spots.
  • Remember: No matter what your spot on the HoF of HoF's is, if you are member of the Severed Tongue you are already a winner Scum






And for the doubters who like to check up on me, here are the top 30's of the HoF's, from Monday, that were the basis of this HoF of HoF's this month.
