Does anybody have any tips for getting anywhere in class C? I seem to be perpetually stuck in fifth and sixth position which gives me no points for upgrades. How do people do this and be successful?

As you finally reach Nightmare status, your Halloween bucket sprouts vine covered legs and arms, its painted on mouth morphing into a gaping, grinning maw and it runs off into the night howling, "Trick r' Treat, Trick r' Treat, Trick r' Treat!".
I currently Have a 90 Gallon Freshwater Tank that is in the middle of reconstruction (so no pictures). Over the years I have kept saltwater fish, various micro reefs, an Amazon river basin biotope, African Cichlids, various genral freshwater community tanks, a goldfish specific tank, and a Discus and Angelfish community. Adjacently I've also kept a mudskipper biotope, a viquarium with frogs, newts and one extremely personable tiger salamander, and a blue ring octopus that I babysat for a friend for about a year.
I was the sales manager at Sailfin Pets in Champaign, IL for about 6 years, so I've had a lot of intense training on pretty much everything I didn't list.

:"Holy shit! I've never met anyone else who's read Going Bovine! My childhood favourite that got me into writing in the first place! Made my day man! :D"
Ii always love it when I throw out an obscure book and someone else has read it too. So judging by your handle, are you a Grant Morrison fan as well?

Here's a few books I read this year that I loved:
Going Bovine by Libba Bray - A high-school slacker contracts Mad Cow Disease and either goes on the greatest psychadelic vision quest, spanning all of space and time... or doesn't. Depending on your point of view.
The Weirdness by Jeremy P. Bushnell - Let's say you wake up one morning hung over and late for work, only to find Satan sitting on your couch. He offers you your heart's desire in exchange for finding his missing lucky cat and you know, your immortal soul. It's a quandry indeed, but at least he brewed you a fresh cup of coffee.
Fuzzy Dice by Paul DiFilippo - A dimension hopping magnum opus wherein a hapless bookstore clerk learns that even with infinite wishes, framing a wish that actually gets the expected result is really hard.
Strange Wine by Harlan Ellison - One of the greatest short story collections ever written. Well worth your time.
Really, Really, Really, Really Weird Stories by John Shirley - Another spectacular collection of short stories.
The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix - The title kinda says it all, and yet barely does any justice to how much fun this book was.
Help! A Bear Is Eating Me by Mykle Hansen - A man gets trapped under his SUV during an ill-considered camping trip. While he's trapped a bear starts eating him one piece at a time. It seems like a horrible fate, but trust me, by the end of the novella you will be rooting for the bear.
Fairy Tale by Stephen King - If you haven't read this yet, put this at the top of your list. I've read every Steven King story to date, and this is absolutely his best!

The third dislike on this thread was from me. It was a complete accident while I was flipping through forum threads and my cat landed on my keyboard. I apologize profusely!!!! For Yewnit, I will say I know quite a few people who have traded with him and he is an excellent trader: fast, fair and super safe.
Not sure how he feels about cats, but mine has a proven track record of computer dickery so it's likely not a personal grudge., just an extremely unfortunate accident.

Zomg! That is bloody amazing. It's like you took what was in my head and put it on the screen! Thank you!
Hi, if you have an open slot, I'm looking for a profile image about the size of the larger one you did on the post directly above this one. I'd like it to be a female steam-punk pirate, and read "Friend of Ruckus 24 [2086491].

Torn Fact: The annual Duke's Mamma look alike contest was cancelled for mysterious reasons. Most believe it was the flood of "your mamma" jokes that could have led to a potential server crash. Most likely though, it was just to confusing for Duke.
You found a Box of Grenades and a book titled "High School For Adults" on your doorstep.
That would be an easy code and a great help to players.
There are many reasons Unique is one of the preeminent traders on Torn. He is fast, polite and discreet. What more could you ever ask for in a trader? As always high marks from me!

There are many pretenders to the throne, but Rockmuff really does have the best prices in torn. Awesome trader, fast and mug free. Exceptionally smooth trade and I would definitely trade with him again! 10/10!!!
Excellent prices, great trader. Smooth and lightning fast. I will recommend Wam to everyone.
I need this mission as well,

I absolutely loved it. Between Lost In Space and Altered Carbon, I am really happy with my Netflix account right now.
