Your position in queue: Over 9000

I dunno when AManWithACloak got this message, I just started playing tonight and I didn’t have to wait at all!

Speaking of which this game is pretty awesome, and also free! If you’re interested in checking it out sign up here and add me to your friends list! My character name is Solirue! Maybe we can get some Halolz games going?

    I think Shawn underestimates how spammed with friend requests he's going to get for this.

    Get him to 10k referrals so he can get shipped off to Riot's offices for champ design lol.

  2. Zyquux on September 2nd, 2011 3:07 am

    So our first LoL submission is what is shown whenever you try to log in when there's a lot of people on (usually after maintenance, I think)?

    Also, commence spamming Shawn with friend requests.

    Something I made? Posted on Halolz?

    ARGH! Can someone teach me how to embed shit?

  4. AManWithACloak on September 2nd, 2011 3:28 am

    Oh, also, I'm Tolnoc in-game.

  5. Makzin on September 2nd, 2011 3:51 am

    You can’t actually get them to add a champion ‘you’ design.

    you just get to tweak whatever champion they’re working on in some way, they keep their lore very serious.

  6. itsBlt on September 2nd, 2011 4:03 am

    indeed a good game for shinanigans, also lookout for Hall Om Mig as it will be my friend request

  7. Bobomberman on September 2nd, 2011 4:13 am

    Yes! I was just wondering when LoL would be part of the "cool" crowd, and by cool crowd I mean that one site that has nothing to do with Halo, but no one cares crowd.

  8. PumpkinKing on September 2nd, 2011 4:34 am

    Finally people will understand if I start doing LoL quotes..maybe also BoneDaddy19 is my tag for when I finally get in the game >.<

  9. Vabolo on September 2nd, 2011 7:10 am

    So I guess this is HaLoLz now?

  10. GanjalfTheGreen on September 2nd, 2011 7:12 am

    THERE'S NO WAY THAT COULD BE RIGHT!
    Oh, wait… there is.

  11. Solid_Spy on September 2nd, 2011 7:18 am

    To answer your question, Shawn (if it already isn't answered), if there is a time the get overloaded with players, you (obviously) have to wait in line until it's your turn to log in. Riot Games thought it would be a funny reference and added in Over 9000. There are real numbers for the queue though, but if you're above 9000 , then… yeah… you get the idea.

    I think I'll drop the obligatory Team Four Star link here. rel="nofollow">

  13. HughbertEsq on September 2nd, 2011 7:52 am

    Wait what what …what what LoL?
    I…I… what is…hwhat?

  14. Jcranjel on September 2nd, 2011 8:28 am

    and here I thought nobody cared about League of Legends :o
    Guess I'll be one of those people sending you a friend invite. My name is Jcranjel in game. I'm level 30, but I don't really play ranked. I'm fully willing to help you learn the game though!

  15. Bioniclema90 on September 2nd, 2011 8:56 am

    omg, that's awesome! love this picture! =D

  16. VyseRogueKing on September 2nd, 2011 10:38 am

    Shawn did you start playing LoL right when you posted this because my steam told me so. I started in a similar fashion. I didn't sleep that night. I hope you did.

  17. VaultLegend on September 2nd, 2011 11:03 am

    Oh Vegeta, one day you'll realize that smashing all the scouters in the universe won't fill the void in your smashed ego.

  18. Terpsichore on September 2nd, 2011 11:05 am

    My summoner name is lolitsnefel if anyone wants to play. Level 30 and all.
    I work at a net cafe though, so its usually co-op vs ai games during my shift, then proper games later.

    Also, I like troll builds. Dont expect me to be fully serious. I hope you guys enjoy the game, its pretty fun. I recommend Soraka for rainbow flavoured magical goat-narwhal awesomeness.

  19. OrionX on September 2nd, 2011 11:08 am

    Better use that wait time to power up.

  20. MasterLuigi452 on September 2nd, 2011 11:18 am

    Ah Over 9K joke.
    Old, but classical as always.

  21. Caelun_Niveus on September 2nd, 2011 11:43 am

    Oh, so you accept LoL but not my Mabi Zangieef punching a bear?

    >.>

  22. DeathJam on September 2nd, 2011 11:43 am

    This'll be fun, either a tonne of newbies to play with, or pros to cry at and ask them to kiss my boo boo better.

    Pokey Pierce, level 10. Add me if you want (The name was picked because I was playing with bronies)

  23. Boots_Of_Chaos on September 2nd, 2011 12:10 pm

    Depending on how soon you log in after an update comes out, you may see this window quite a bit.

  24. Leo E. on September 2nd, 2011 12:46 pm

    Oddly enough, ads on the side of the page at the moment are LoL ads.

  25. Kamelot on September 2nd, 2011 1:33 pm

    Add my fat ass. BlindEye The Mag.
    I play a mean Singed. "Mix mix swirl mix."

  26. Zyquux on September 2nd, 2011 1:50 pm

    With this submission, we have discovered that almost EVERYONE HERE plays LoL.

    Go figure.

    here's proof:

  28. Ice_Cold_Water on September 2nd, 2011 2:10 pm

    Lawl. I wonder if that was intentional

  29. RespectfulGlove on September 2nd, 2011 3:12 pm

    *Sigh* Unfortunately, LoL is cursed with the same aura that follows WoW.

    I once had a cousin who used to come over to play video games very often. He was like a best friend within the family. He was, at least.

    We tried out LoL together. I myself didn't deeply get into it. He on the other hand… Ever since he started playing LoL at the beginning of Summer, however, he hasn't stopped. He lost all contact with his older friends, and I think I've heard from his mom that his grades started to go down at the end of the year as well. Every time I talk to him it's "Oh sorry I'm in the middle of League of Legends" or "I was just about to get on League of Legends". I would invite him over, but every time he'd make an excuse to say no, just to play more LoL. The man even went as far as to say he needed two whole days just to find school supplies just to say no…

    I miss him dearly. LoL players, please play in moderation, for the sake of those around you.

  31. DiamyoAlex on September 2nd, 2011 4:37 pm

    LoL is going super Saiyen!

  32. Drjolt on September 2nd, 2011 4:48 pm

    Admins, what does the ban count of your servers say about it's power level?

  33. Alpar on September 2nd, 2011 6:01 pm

    …this makes me think: When was the last time we had a submission with a meme?

  34. MeatyMcSausage on September 2nd, 2011 6:12 pm

    Your position: 8999

  38. kinwoop on September 2nd, 2011 9:01 pm

    and suddenly he realizes he knows nothing about league of legends

  39. Uzumakiclan43 on September 2nd, 2011 9:27 pm

    If Vegeta reacted that badly to finding out his position in the login queue is over 9,000, I don't want to be around when he finds out how long it will take before he can log back in again.

  40. nemb94 on September 2nd, 2011 9:46 pm

    I love this game is like dota but in this case i understand how to play it!

    P.S: Nemb94 ingame NA server

    I'm not the ONLY person on earth who finds nothing all that appealing about LoL, am I? The gameplay just… Isn't my thing… DOTA always looked like an RTS except the AI was the commander and you were the "hero" with a mind of its own (so controls were a little more focused and a lot more… boring.) The story is uninteresting as it's basically (and admittedly) an excuse plot, the areas leave nothing to the imagination (don't want sandbox-level exploration, but want to discover unique landscapes as I go) and the matches look and sound super repetitive. The developers are also lazier for balance then Blizzard; "oh if someone is op you can just ban the champion, we don't want to think about how to fix him (or others) and don't care if no one is able to play as him ever. we can pass it off as an 'interesting metagame aspect!'"

    The reason I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't care about the game is because I'm shunned by EVERYONE I know who plays it, just cause I don't take an interest in it (and don't care when people blab on about it.) I even get insulted by the same people for still playing WoW (which they quit because, and they admit, they're terrible at) or some other game.
