All of the above is superfluous information, as Margueritaville climbers are nominated by default.

So many Gumbys--so little time. rockscaler2 has also managed to leapfrog much of the competition.

WOW!! How did I miss that post? And this little nugget within it:
"...Stonemonkey your right Josh is a joke and I would never go back there.......Yosemite I'm very interested in seeing. I would love to see one of you so called 5.10 climbers go climb a 5.10 back east.....I would pay to see it actually that would be quite a site."
The funny thing is Stonemonkey's sarcasm was completely lost on him, he actually thought that in fact someone was agreeing with him that Joshua Tree sucked :lol: !
And I don't think that dude should be spraying about how much harder east coast ratings are til he gets to the valley and gets his ass humbled. Anyone who can cruise Outer Limits could pretty much cruise any 5.10 out east fer sure.
Any 5.10 climbing west coast dirtbags out here need some $$?? Get yer butt out east and rockscaler2 will be happy to pay you to send every 5.10 on the east coast!! You'd be getting paid to climb! :lol:

I wonder what rockscaler2's going rate is per 5.10 and up route? If he will just send me a check for every 5.10 through 5.12 Gunks climb I have already done, I may be able to retire. :D

Apparently there was a thread where some gumbies took lead falls at the gym onto keychain biners. That would be pure gold for this thread but, alas it was deleted by the mods. Anyone know who started the thread so that he can at least receive his nomination? The guy has to receive some kind of special recognition for posting something so gumbified and dangerous that it got nuked.

Tell us, king of the non-gumbies, why it is dangerous to take lead falls on a keychain biner a few feet out from a good bolt?

I remember he was from Ohio....actually, go back a page and the thread I posted the link to and commented on Hillary's hilarious commentary within WAS this particular thread, which I still can't believe got deleted. Especially since most of the responses were people posting and telling the dude he was crazy, so it's not like even the most STUPID of new people to this site couldn't deduce that what the guy was trying was dangerous. I've seen way more "dangerous" threads, that one that got deleted was pretty innocuous in comparison.

I don't know, ask rrradam (I think he was the one that nuked it) or go read the monstrous thread asking why it was nuked. I just think the dude deserves somethink special for posting something that got nuked and created such an uproar.
And yes, I am king of the non-gumbies. Thanks for noticing. Now grovel wench.

You're right Alex, we MUST find who originally posted it cause they will be the recipient of the rare honor of "gumby whose topic was so questionable towards inducing newbies to turn into gumbies that it got nuked" award. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: . That ALONE should rocket him to the top of the list.

Witnessed at Joshua Tree recently: Couple working Big Mo on toprope. Girl, belaying, is tied into a two-block anchor, each block weighing perhaps 10 lb (note to gumbies: if you can carry the anchor to the base of the climb, it is not an anchor). Her leash is clipped into a gear loop. Later, it's the girl's turn to climb, and the guy's to belay. His belay carabiner is clipped around his belay loop, instead of through it. This is how he attaches it for rappelling, too, and he uses a figure 8. Both climbers were wearing helmets, though, so they must be safe climbers, eh?
We may have pictures of this to post in the near future, so stay tuned.
-Jay
