Probably just the unlockables bug, again. You'll be able to use them, but who knows when!

Wait, what's the new update?

Niku speaks of the new update to Gayng Gayyison, not Team Fortress 2 proper.

ok so is my head broke, am I so insanely arrogant that I just can't enjoy this game anymore?

For the past five days I've just been mulling about on my favorite servers, trying to enjoy some quality murdering, and I mostly just end up frustrated. Maybe it is just my characteristic super-extended bad luck streaks. Maybe it is being on the losing team something like 12 times in a row, including the winning team morphing into the losing team if I use auto-balance to hop over.

Maybe it is hopping on a server, trying with all my might, getting frustrated by chain insta-deaths/crits and switching to lazy-ass wrench ninja to keep going and then doing better???? Like why even try?

Norondor says I need to adopt some zen or buddhist tactics and learn to let my power do it's own thing without actively trying to control it.

All I really know is that I have only had one brief moment of enjoyment over the last week:



My very first round trying Spy after half a year. That ammo-to-cloak and instant backstab are golden!

(Then I managed to run into vigilant engineers and pyros at least four times in a row next round, but it was still more fun than anything else this past week.)

past five days... bad luck streaks... the losing team

My streaks are on for three days, and then off for three days. Mayhaps your own are on for six, and off for six?

:doit: I'm fully convinced that Valve targets players for days on end to give them shitty/wondrous experiences.

That it has spread to other games is just one more in the worrying list of signs that the AI Director has gone rampant.

Every time I launch TF2, Kazz's computer goes retarded on me and turns the monitor off to power-save mode.  And then it won't turn on no matter what I do, and I have to restart and it's fine again so it couldn't be the cables being plugged in poorly :T

Try switching to VGA cables.  That happened to me a few months ago too - I'm hazarding a guess that it's the first sign of a graphics card turning gay.

(And mine was linked to trying to run TF2 too so I guess it's Valve or something?)

I'm feeling.. remarkably better.

Could it be that I have touched every facet of my being? Have I walked the Nine Paths of Enlightenment?

Am I finally...

Random?

Welcome, brother.

Just remember that nobody wants to hear your bitching when you get Yoshi.

To be honest, you seem to do this to a lot of games.

Edit: Come to think of it, I can't seem to think of someone who doesn't do it. You just do it with flair, I guess. 

Back into playing TF2 myself again! Mm, Pryo, how I missed you.  ::3:

Doom, I have to say that you are a giant shitbrick in this game.

Switching teams and such when things go awry, and then DOOO HOO HOO HOO HOO HOOing about it.

It really doesn't help matters when you turncoat, go Spy, and shank me.

Fucker.

Doom is pretty much a giant shitbrick in any multiplayer game.  You kind of get used to it.

Doom is pretty into himself when it comes to games but he doesn't do it at the cost of anybody else's enjoyment so I almost admire it.

Okay, well, maybe McDohl's, but he's an Engineer so fuck him.

I...I'm not an engineer.  I've been playing mostly pyro and medic.

You're an Engineer IN REAL LIFE.

That means you must be stabbed.

IN REAL LIFE.


Also don't blame Doom if you're getting stabbed as Pyro.

At this point, it's like "Oh Doom, that rapscallion..." :nyoro~n:
