Mimms and Lucas Q&A

The Mimms and Lucas Q&A was a series of questions and answers on the PVCC message board with Daniel Mimms and Lucas regarding their experience with Chris, initiated by CWCki admin and PVCC user champthom.

Mimms and Lucas's answers provide insight into Chris's past, particularly at The GAMe PLACe and the extent of his involvement with the Pokemon League. Despite Chris's claim of being a gym leader at the Pokemon League, Mimms and Lucas assert that he only filled in once. Furthermore, Chris disliked playing with black children and would frequently lose and have tantrums.

Initial post

Champthom contacted Mimms via Facebook asking three questions:

1. what Chris was like at the Game Place, and if he knew the grounds of why Chris was really banned,
2. if he could tell us anything about Megan
3. if he tried to play his homemade cards.

The answers were shocking:

... nywho, heres some fun stuff you may not have know about CWC. The reason he got banned from the game place is in part due to his blatant racism. Also, because he would frequently blow up when losing to small children, he had scared off some good business, so Mike really wanted him gone. Lets not discount the fact the His parents threatened to take me to court. Also, There were some black kids, age 12-15, who would frequent the Yugi-oh sessions (actually good kids) who he kind of picked on because he always acted like they wanted to steal from him. No one wants to be discriminated against, so there was a bit of animosity between Chrissy and the group of black kids. His final banning is due largely to the fact that he got in a scream contest with one of the kids and of course the "adult" should be responsible, but not Chris. Essentially Mike was looking for any reason to ban him at this point and this was good enough, because he was tired of having long time patrons harassed by this retard. He was asked to leave and to not come back Mike, so Chris calls his parents. Mike Calls the cops. The result was hilarious. watching his fossilized mother get put in here place by a jerkop was pretty fulfilling. (sorry if that was long winded) Other fun stuff... He had about a 20 different custom cards, but never played any of them. He was very rarely left in charge of the Pokemon league because he had such a short temper and hated dealing with all the little kids' wins and losses, so I real adult needed to be present. Megan would usually stand/hide behind me and Lucas to avoid him, especially after the drawings of her got leaked. I'd prefer to leave her out of this to be honest, as it was a traumatizing experience for her. She and I are still friends for the record. Chris would rarely ever shake anyones hand after a game, and when he did, he quickly followed up with hand sanitizer. I received a My little pony for Xmas one year from him, cuz I treated him like a person for the longest time. If you care to look it up, I got Mimbo-boboruto. It had a green pompom 'fro, because I had a green 'fro (no joke). It should also be know that he played the game Universal Fighting System (UFS) wherein you can play as nearly any fighting game character. He always picked a steriotypical bimbo as his character, usually Cassandra and sometimes Chun-li.

Follow up

After the initial message and popularity on PVCC, four more questions were sent to Mimms:

1) Did Chris lose a lot at Yu-Gi-Oh and/or Pokemon? I and someone else are curious at how good Chris was at TCGs, like if he won a lot or if he frequently lost to 10 year olds. 2) Chris seems to cite this story about how he went behind the counter at the Game Place to get something, and they banned him for that. Obviously you cite a different story and I was wondering if there was any merit to Chris's story about going behind the counter that got him banned. 3) To what extent did Chris lead the Pokemon League? Your story about how he was rarely left in charge is particularly interesting, considering Chris says his "greatest contribution to society" was leading the Pokemon League and he equates his experience at The Game Place as the volunteer gym leader as actual work experience (yes, as in the kind he would put on a resume if he actually applied to a job) and as charitable volunteer work. He said his experience there helped him develop "leadership skills like Optimus Prime" (I shit you not, those are his words). 4) What's this about an interrogation? [he offered to tell me about the interrogation he got when they found out about the infamous blurry picture]

Mimms responded:

1) Chris was pretty awful at all the games he played. he had rediculous themed decks that never worked in pokemon and he never used any trategy at all in yugi-oh. He only won 1 tournement of yugi-oh durring a regional event when most of our good players were gone. There must have been about 6 people including Chris and myself at the tourney and when he won he was jumping up and down a yelling "I'm the level up king!" Since that was the theme of his deck. Other than that he would lose to small children and rarely made it past the first round in organized events. 2/3) He wasnt actually a gym leader for Pokemon league, but on a few occasions the regular gym leader couldnt be there, he happily volunteered to sub in because he never missed a Friday session of Pokemon anyway. After a few reports of him raising his voice to impatient children it was clear that something had to be done about him. One day when he was taking the place of gym leader, he went to the back room to get the box of prize support and badges and whatnot without permission. Since he is neither an employee or a gym leader, Mike decided to use it as an excuse to ban him for one month. That was his first ban. The other ban story I told was the second and permanent ban. 4) The interrogation came a week after I took the famed blurry picture. Keep in mind that Chris still liked me at this point and that he is very very gullible. I come and sit down like any other friday, start chatting and playing a round of Pokemon with Lucas and some other players and these two old people walk up and ask if they can talk to me. The conversation starts kind of slow talking about Chris disability and how they struggled as parents and seem rather bitter that their son is far from normal. They then ask if I took the dreaded picture. I say yes and then play dumb as far as how it got on the internet. They then threaten to take me to court for misusing his likeness with out his consent. At first I was really shaken by this, but then I realized they were full of shit and couldn't actually do anything of consequence to me. So then I put on the smug bastard face and ask them if they're done and if I can go back to my game. Later, Mike tell Chris if his parents ever do anything like that again, he'll call the cops (cuz Mike has my back). This is also a big push to Chris down his slippery slope to being banned, probably the biggest one, in fact. anyway, thats the basic gist of the interrogation.

Q&A

Mimms was asked to join PVCC, along with Lucas and they were flattered by the invitation.

“	So uh, what's up guys. Name's Lucas. Mimms has been filling me in on the events of his FACEBOOK discovery so since he decided to reveal himself I decided to pop in here and check things out. I'm better at typing than he is so feel free to ask me anything	”
Lucas

“	So, I decided to join this board to answer all of your questions, or at least as many as I can. I am the Mimms, fire away with any questions you may have.	”
Mimms

Mimms on the infamous picture:

While I did take the famed picture, it was Lucas who posted it to 4chan to share it with the world, so in actuality, he probably deserves most of the credit. I just happened to spend more with Chirs (lucky me).

Did you ever witness him pulling any really creepy shit with Megan at the Game Place?

Lucas replied:

Ever more like every day. He was constantly putting his arm around her and shit and it got to the point where she would take refuge in the midst of our group of bros.

What kind of Pokemon deck did he play? I'm guessing grass/electric. Also, does his greasy skin glisten in the sun? And finally, do you have any fond memories of your time with him? Somethign that might help humanize him a little?

Lucas replied:

He played a bunch of decks. Like, he had a huge plastic deck container thing what was also Lego'd up. Last time I ever played him he was using a pure Psychic deck (I think, match didn't last long enough for me to see much, thank god). He also sung along to Britney Spears the entire time we were playing. O_o Fond memories...one time he brought his Wii in and everyone played Brawl for a while, that was fun I guess.

What exactly does a Pokemon gym leader do? How do they get the position, what responsibilities does it entail, and so on. I played the video games all the time back in the day, but the only CCG I've ever played is Magic. Was the idea of a gym leader something that the Game Place came up with independently, or was it common to lots of card/gaming stores? Were you two trying to avoid keeping track of the Chris-chan saga, or have you been following it closely all this time?

Mimms replied:

Pokemon gym leaders are usually adults who want to be active with their kids who are into the game. I think they are asked to do it by the store staff, but I do know it is a voluntary. Their duties are fairly simple and include: keeping track of points on a score sheet in order to win promo cards and badges (wins are 2 points, loses are 1), giving out promos and keeping things from getting too chaotic (rarely a problem). To be honest, I'm not 100% sure how common gym leaders were, but I'd guess they're standard in any pokemon league. Also, Lucas and I have followed this shit strom every step of the way, just curious to see what the hell we would do next.

I'm also interested in Megan and/or anything else that hasn't been discussed to death. Especially discrimination. We all know Chris hates DEM HOMOS.

Mimms replied:

Usually he was pretty hostile to the black kids at yugi-oh. It was total BS since they're all good kids. Sure we're had a few kids who come in once steam a card and never come back, but the regulars are all cool guys. I would always try to hide his stuff when they were near and never wanted to play a friendly game with them. I'm sure he used a few racial slurs, never nigger or anything, but it was obvious he was a huge racist. [story] I remember one time he and this huge black guy named TJ were arguing about something that Chris was wrong about (since TJ is one of the best players in town) and as it got more heated, they started yelling about how Chris would never get laid. Chris yells at him, "I'm going to smack your effing face down!" and TJ stands up like hes going to beat his ass. Chris shrinks back and and says "I mean your face down monster..." Moral of the story: Chris a bitch and he's awful at all card games. Also, he used to never curse.

You wouldn't happen to know anything about Chris' brief employment at wendys, would you? and How does Megan feel about Chris after all this time? She's considered to be the root of a lot of Chris' current psychosis, so information on their relationship is really useful. Also, is she at all interested in being involved with Chris' current internet drama, or is she too scared by Chris' many attempts at rape? Speaking of, how far did Chris go? We know from Megan's emails there was a lot of inappropriate touching.

Lucas replied:

We've been aware of his comics for years. He always had the copy of ISSUE ZERO that he printed out on him for anyone curious enough. I'm pretty sure I ended up with a Sonichu business card or something at one point, can't really remember. As far as the ED stuff, most of the other regulars didn't really pay attention to what was going on as far as I know, except for Megan of course and some of our friends. I think some of the employees checked out the ED page early on but there weren't a lot of conversations about it after a while. I had no idea Chris had a job, and it's actually pretty surprising to me, goddamn. I haven't talked to Megan terribly recently (I don't really bother going to Pokemon when Mimms isn't around, and he's fucked off to out of town college) but the vast majority of our recent AIM conversations have been her asking me about what wacky shenanigans Chris had gotten himself into. Like has been established in those e-mails, she's cut off all ties to him and she finds most of the ED stuff kinda funny I guess. I think last time we talked was the subject of his sex toy orders and she was pretty much LOL EW GROSS. Nothing terribly interesting.

Mimms replied:

I helped Megan deal with Chris, so we decide that she just ought to forget about him and all the bullshit that happened, so we dont talk about him ever anymore. He was always too uncomfortably close to Megan, but I dont think he ever forced him self on her to get a kiss or anything more than that, at least not in public. They were friends, thats all, but apparently he views any friendly relationship with a female as something more. Megan is a very interesting person. Very shy and a social outcast to say the least, I guess she and chris have that in common. But whatever was between them is now 100% gone and she basically refuses to acknowledge his existance.

Chris has being trying to be allowed back into the game place (by posting videos on youtube) does the store owner know or care for that matter? Also did Chris always bring up he was a virgin also? Or his love quest... Last one, can he or has ever being a fight? Sounds like he gets too scared.

Lucas replied:

Yes, the manager is aware of Chris wanting to be let back in. In fact, Chris sent a letter to him a while before he made the youtube video. He told us about it and we pretty much just laughed about it. I can't recall Chris ever bringing up his LOVE QUEST. I'm sure he has at some point though so when Mimms comes back he might have a different answer. Yeah he's never been in a fight as far as I know. At least not in the store or something like that. He's yelled at kids plenty of times though if that counts. I remember one time he yelled at some poor kid for taking a long time to make a move during a Pokemon game. He gets really impatient during games and if you make a mistake or do something in the "wrong order" he gets upset.

-Did Christian ever soil himself in your store? If so, how did he react? -How did the kids react to him? Were they scared, or did they antagonize him further for fun? Were there any particularly funny moments like this?

Lucas replied:

1 - I have no idea, I hope he never did, and if he did I am glad i never knew about it. 2 - From what I saw most of the age groups stuck together unless there was a BATTLE going on. Most of the time Chris kept to himself and his PSP or whatever unless he got involved in a match. Whenever an outburst happened things got quiet and everyone stared for a moment or so but then they all went back to whatever they were doing (used to it I guess) But none of the kids ever fucked with him so I guess they were all afraid of him Also, most of the time parents just drop their kids off and fuck off somewhere. Or they would be off in a corner on a laptop or something but there hadn't been many outbursts in a while and I never saw a parent telling him off or anything.
