"Bad to the Bone" 2003-08-23 - 3:49 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj I'm feeling a lot better about my life and myself today today I went to my cousin's house for an eight and a half hour session of videogaming that fucking rocked missing Motorhead doesn't bother me at all now 'cause if I'd been at the show I wouldn't've been able to take part in what was one of the best nights I've had in a long time we played a lot of Red Faction(2), which is what we always do and we always have a ton of fun doing it but there was a few-hour break in the middle while we played the new(est) Mortal Kombat I haven't really been a fan of the Mortal Kombat series for a long time now and this one didn't do much to change my mind but it was fun for the time at first it was kind've annoying because the controls kinda sucked and it was hard to fight and/or do moves but then I went and printed up a list of how to do the fatalities [on a side note, I went on my cousin's computer to do it; and he had so many porn sites in his favorites, it was hilarious] [I'm not saying I don't go to porn sites, but I don't keep them in my favorites where anyone could find them if they sit down and play on my computer] and we took the time to see everyone's(that they had unlocked) fatalities they were pretty sweet some of them were dissapointments but there were some nicely gorey ones in there heh heh anyway, every time we get together for a night of videogaming(up until now we've played solely Red Faction 2) we always play the same set-up for the last match me and my two cousins on the same team against three bots(short for 'robots' as in computer players) which is what we do every game, but I'm trying to give you the whole set up in capture the flag on this level called "Warlords" it's basically this tiny little circular canyon, and on the two opposing sides there are fortresses built into the canyon walls they're simple litle three-levels-and-a-roof buildings with a wall on the outside the flags are on the roofs of the fortresses and our strategy is usually this: cousin A(Simon, the youngest of the 5 kids) is on the bottom of our base, keeping the bots from getting inside cousin B(Ian, the second-to-oldest of the 5) goes and gets their flag and brings it back I(Br- oh, right) stand on the roof of our base with a rocket launcher[technically a grenade launcher but it works like a rocket launcher], and take care of everyone I can get my sights on now, I'm like a freaking sniper with that thing I can nail people with pinpoint accuracy, I can shoot a bot standing next to my cousin and not kill my cousin with the explosion I'm a fucking bad-ass in that situation that's why it makes it a guaranteed victory for the last game; and I always set records in kills [for those who aren't of the nerdy persuasion; when someone dies in a multi-player game, they simply re-spawn in one of a few set points inside their base or (if there is no base)area with only the basic weapon] the first time we played it that way it was with me and Simon versus Ian and Cousin C; Alex(the next oldest under Ian) and with only the two of them to worry about, they could barely re-spawn before I killed them again *evil grin* anyway; the point of this disgustingly long hunk of exposition was: this time, after eight hours; we were all tired; and our strategy came unglued it was chaotic as hell, and we couldn't get a direct victory; but we still won because we had more captures when time ran out and I set a brand-new record now, before I say the number, I'm gonna give you some more exposition so you can be properly impressed the average amount of kills someone gets in a capture the flag game is around 10-30 if they're a real hard-ass they can get somewhere around 40 or so the amount of kills I usually get in Warlords is a little over a 100 this time, I got: one hundred and fifty seven kills 157 that probably means little to nothing to you but to me that's a great feeling that's a definite record in that game for all my cousins and myself to get 157 kills in one sitting is an astounding number obviously I was killed quite a few times myself [although I did have the least deaths that round] that's insane that's about three times the average amount if you're a hard-ass [sorry; that expression has kinda wormed it's way into my vocabulary during these sessions with my cousins] Hail to the King, Baby just give me one more second to bask in that and then I promise I'll let it go oh, oh yeah ok and now for things that actually matter or rather, one thing I've been trying to re-write that 'Unbreakable' song I put in here a couple days ago the guitar is so perfect; it's the kind of melody I want to write from now on it's exactly the kind of thing I want to write all the time it sounds so good and I don't want to ruin it or bring it down with lyrics that aren't up to its standard and although those lyrics were entertaining(in their own way) they're not the kind of thing I want to sing I wrote some other lyrics yesterday, but they weren't up to the standard either really I need some inspiration, but at the moment I'm fresh out I don't know; I'll keep trying and if I come up with something particularly good maybe I'll post it in here but I probably won't get exactly what I'm looking for right off the bat and most likely not for a couple of tries yeah, that's all I've got sorry Sweet Dreams � � |
