I was a padawan to a piracy Jedi back in high school and he opened my eyes and showed me the the way with piracy and emulation. I saw him watching Star Wars Attack of the Clones in a DS and my mind was blown away. He also gave me an invite for "blackcats-games.".... shortly after this I got a Supecard SD and flashcart and a Nintendo DS.....oh and a superkey later. Oh and GBATMW. Taught me about emulation and Project 64 and 1964 emulators
Unfortunately he got in trouble by the school for changing his grades. He put a USB keylogger onto a techers computer keyboard (when they had USB ports) and with the login credentials , he was able to change his grades. The school district got involved and one day the police came during class and took him away without warning....never saw him until the last day of school.
I think he works for the Navy now. I wonder what I would have been if I never met them and was opened to the "scene" on the Internet.
