Jim "Jimbo" Barrett

Jim "Jimbo" Barrett is probably the most well respected idiot gamer of all time. He immediately gained infamy at the start of his career, due to his arrogance and claiming of obviously fake times, such as Caverns Agent 1:02. After being banned from The Elite in late 2002, Jimbo cleaned up his act. In July 2003 he whipped out Bunker 1 00A 1:09 (then tying a Bosshardt-set untied of 2 seconds), marking the beginning of the more mature Jimbo that exists today. In February 2004, he reached the podium of GoldenEye 007 and stayed there for exactly one year. Jimbo is currently retired from Goldeneye but some of his accomplishments include:

  • Formerly highest ranked player without using dot (title now held by Goose)
  • All personal records proven
  • 3 untied world records
  • Being a proof moderator

Jimbo, now age 19, has matured greatly in the past years. Jimbo resides in Green Bay Wisconsin, works full time at WG&R Furniture as a delivery driver making just over a whopping $9/hr. Jimbo checks the elite boards every day, visits the elite chat nearly every day, and even visits Ngamer .6 times a year on average or so. Last year Jimbo was involved in one of the great pioneering wonders of the elite, the GNC! Jimbo is now 12th in the game that made him famous (Goldeneye), mostly due to the fact that he now sucks at GE solo and doesn't want to hang on, but also because he is in love with Tom Clancy games on the 360!

Reasons why you should vote Jimbo:

Reasons why you probably should not vote Jimbo: Jimbo loves NASCAR, NFL Films music (paid $80 for the entire collection), very old games, drives a 19 year old car with 200K miles on it, gambles on everything, has a really crappy job, and has yet to win a match in this contest anyway. If I saw that someone hasn't won a match when clearly they should have, I think I would keep their losing streak going if I could too!
