Hmm

Whoa! Something really weird just happened in CS. I was having a great time against some vets on GD (we were goofing around with awps and scouts and knives)… and then the server crashed. But that’s not the weird part. Before that, everyone had been having mad lag and ghosting problems. But that’s not the weird part. After about 20 minutes, I checked GameSpy, and sure enough the server was back up.. with one player on (Italy). But that’s not the weird part. I joined and he left, and so i played for a few rounds by myself to boost hostages killed for stats. And then this llama joined who didn’t know how to chat… I said ceasefire and he shot me with glock so I had to kill him. But that’s not the weird part. Here the weird part: I had kept hearing strange sounds in the game, as if someone else was playing, but they weren’t. So when I went for the hostages and bumped into something at the T spawn… turns out it was a ghost player.. i stabbed it and it died! Blood and all! It said “Enemy: ******” yet wasn’t listed on the player list!!! lolol, enjoy the screen.

First off, I would like to say I am SICK of all this tech news bullshit, Snake! Nobody gives a rat’s dick most likely. Just give URLs to your favorite tech news sites and let them read the news themselves whenever!

Secondly, I am getting really good at CS. A vet on GameDomain server taught me a lot about knife fights and some other moves, and I’m great at long-range m4 kills now….. Bleys and I play on GD every single day. If only Snake would get on once in a while we’d look good in the stats.

Finally (aside from the fact that I got my learners’ finally, about to get a job), I’m going to paint The Wad!!! Yep, I’m going to Snake’s sometime next week and painting it. I will put up a GHettO post on Snake’s column about it when I’m done. I found a great tutorial on it at [H]ardOCP (again, just the link). It’s a little more involved than I thought. For it to look right, you have to sand the original paint off with an orbital sander; then clean and de-tack that to smooth it out; then apply primer and let that dry; then put 2 or 3 coats of the colored paint (I’ll be using spray paint [which color I use will be a surprise]) on and let that dry. I’m gonna strip the system of the casing, cause Addtronics lets you remove all sides, and bring it over– meanwhile giving me a good chance to install the new 128mb stick of RAM of I bought. That’s it- but a closing note: get out of the house sometimes! It’s better than you think.

As Snake says, “Deaglized!” And that’s right, I just tore it up with my deagle in Cobble (map in Counter-Strike). It was just me and 4 enemies left. First, I M4ed this L337 in the T tower, losing like 50 health in the process. One he was down, I crossed over the bridge and heard the remaining enemies in the middle area, behind the huge opened doors. I shot at one with my M4, but I finished up a clip. When I was reloading, 2 of them charged out the door at me, and I poppsed off the remaining 9 or so rounds in my gun right into one of them. So then it was pistol time- and I had a Desert Eagle. I shot 3 rounds into another L337, but by now all 3 enemies were surrounding me out in the open. 2 more rounds to kill the L337, and then I started strafing like mad- but for no reason! Literally, all 3 were shooting but none of them hit me. Anyway, then I used just 5 more rounds (with one reload) to kill the last 2 llamas.

Here’s the console text when it was all over, and the ending screen (I’ve had better overall, I got 21/14 on Inferno yesterday and 18/5 on Aztec a few weeks ago):
