carbon, hacking away at your computer.
among other garbage, phonelosers truly are 'leet'.
this is really just a picture of the railing.
in my humble opinion, tagging is for low-life scum shit.
erm, where do I sleep?
a look down on the main lobby, otherwise known as the "universal rubi-con bedroom".
they say a picture is worth a thousand words, this one is worth one.
look at me, i'm prussian snow and i can make my face like a fishie.
network ball-room.
"why? what did you do to my face?"
vending machines.. cigarettes.. i thought that was illegal.
hahaha, pull my finger!
integriT, pondering many evil things.

Pictures by Carbon and Prez

Prez & Orez "Where the hell is our food y0"
"Whats my name bitch?" ... "Your damnnnn right"
Flame0ut "WTF you want huh?"
"Excuse me, can I see those rubi badges?"
Cyanosis & Carbon "I so do not have a double chin"
"E..L..I..T..E, huh?..oh, 31337. h4h h4h h4h"
Is this heaven? nah, just the lan of rubicon ghettoness
StatX, the cat5 pimp. (apparently this is a run and gun shot)
Yes, after long amounts of sleep deprevation even the camera suffered from blurriness
Carbon "Man, hashbrown...never again. NEVER!"
See the rare and unclassified species as our dear cameraman runs for his life
Pimpin in a ghetto hotel suite. "Whats that cable out the window?" :)
Asher "Ill just sit here 99% of the time and not eat"
Carbon and Orez look unto nothingness..side by side, thick and thin (thats not suppose to be a joke damnit!)

Pictures by Asher and flame0ut

A creepy bricked-over window in stairwell B.
PrussianSnow and Cyanosis contemplate the opulent subbasement.
Flame0ut, mercifully out of focus.
Between the fourth floor and the network room ceiling. Some scary ghetto kids lived here, we're told.
Flame0ut sits precariously on the edge of the 23-story Ramada roof.
A very small piece of the creepy graffiti that spanned for floors in the bottom of stairwell B.
Yes, we were here, but it wasn't us who kicked the door down, dammit. We used a credit card.
And we didn't disconnect those lines, either. Flame0ut's just trying to punch our room's line into the hold music. And anyway, this didn't happen. Honest.
Room 1425 at Rubi-Con's beginning. There's plenty of other pictures of it at Rubi's end. Poke around a bit.
This probably would have stopped normal people...
1920's pr0n in one of the distant, dark, dusty top rooms of the Ramada.
Prez looking worse than flame0ut did last year. Ha!
PrussianSnow has a few larfs with his invisible friend.
This is Cyanosis, just before he kicked my ass.

More tags in the elevators (FUCK MOBSTERS!)
Some blond woman
