Home is where the 360 is…

Which means it’s not Dunboyne. No 360 = no home.

After the last 2 weeks here, it seems that my current “activities” aren’t helping the family and household as much as they could be. I’m a gamer, what do you expect…?

With any luck, I should be able to head off back to on-campus accommodation by the end of the weekend. Although the luck all depends on whether Tim is able to give me a lift back with all my stuff. And the fact that he has my 360 (I wasn’t leaving it in college over the break - I can’t trust the bed-bug sprayers or the inspection people), so without him giving a lift, I’m not really going “home”.

Back to the present, MOHAA night tonight was fun, even though it took until about 1am before the other Clan members took notice, and even then it started off on some other server! It was grand and all, except that it seems that if a server is a little TOO full, then you have some problems. Plus, the whole concept of leaning is quite annoying to me. It’s why on so many occasions you can be killed from what appears to be nowhere since the guy leaned out, shot and went back in. It really could have done with a proper cover system…

Looking forward to next week though, but unfortunately, it all depends on whether it can connect through the proxy in college. I know Steam can, so maybe there is a slight chance that MOHAA can? If so, grand - more MOHAA gaming :)
If not, then it’s back to the crappy 9fps CS:S. Which has been changed to a Zombie mod server. ZM FTL. GunGame FTW.

PS: It appears my KpD could do with a little work. Now sitting at 0.820. Although I’d much prefer not to have to show it off, it’s still a handy Xfire feature :)
Now I just hope that it can still track kills/deaths when I have to start using DMW, since that piece of shit stops you using the Xfire in-game interface. Although I have found it can be used to make you walk automatically without needing to hold down the “w” key…

No More Rants

Baby Bear does not like it when there are no more rants... Poopy.

Rant in reply

If this is your first time ranting here, I'll need to approve of it first. If I do, then the floodgates are open (not literally!) for you to rant away unhindered in the future.

If you were so hungry you ate your "ranting cookie", then I'll need to approve your rant, and give you another cookie. Go put it in the biscuit tin, padlock it shut and throw away the key!

Gravatars are enabled, so show us your mug!.

Links are automatically "dofollowed" after two days, giving me time to kill the spam! With that in mind, any rant with 3 links or more will need my explicit approval.

Clicking the little arrow by a ranters' name allows you to specifically rant in reply to them, Twitter-style.

Since this load of drivel is about a month old, if your rant is caught by the spamhammer, it will be immediately owned and won't get a chance to respawn. So play nice!

And you are? And don't say you don't have a name!

E-mail please. Will not be sold on to a spam company.

Your home on the web, if you've got one.

Your rant, obviously.
