In Response To: Indy LAN write up (SUPER LONG) *img *vid (Revenant1988) : We arrived in Indianapolis shortly afterwards, and then to Bone’s place. We : had a bit of trouble finding it at first. Apparently, the complex was laid : out in a system like this: buildings are arranged in an order down the : street from 1-10. We need to be in building number 5. Oh wait, some : jackass decided that #5 needs to be on the other side of the street next : to nothing, for no raisin!
: I can’t wait to not find it! : So as Padraig began to zip between trees in a ninja-brute like manner (my
I bet, it sounds funny. : looking for the right building, I called Bones to ask. When I described our
: Me: Bone’s we can’t find your place #5. The addresses go 1-2-3-4-6-7-8 its bullshit : Bones: goddamnit Revenant, didn’t you look at the map and directions I sent you? I can totally imagine it, I've gotten the same response plenty of times when I've played with him, I was waiting for it the whole. : We all gathered at the theater and found seats; the showing was packed. a tidbit you might not know: after driving across half a state and a significant portion of another and getting held up in traffic that stopped dead several times, my group managed to get lost on the way to the theater, and probably drive by it at least once, while having virtually no gas : When we got back Bones had Lunch waiting for everyone. Before we would begin
Honestly, I didn't know what was so funny most of the time, I thought most of it was just kind of amusing and about average or a little above average (and one or two spots below average), of course I didn't say anything because I didn't want to be that guy. : And then we got going for some HALO, finally!
yeah, it was... : Oh you want to drive Meeka around do you? Well, my friend Mr. Blast-y
I didn't know what that was from until just now. (I think I'm right at that age, just old enough, that I was introduced to the Internet late enough I'll periodically forget Google exists for the rest of my life. Does anybody else have this happen to them? You've been wondering about something and you're about to ask and you realize you can just Google it?) : I always wanted to meet Louis Wu This and the Ibeechu comment bring up a minor thing: a few people had funny nametags, more than one each even. : So we had enough to do 16 players, and the first game we set out to play was
I agree, but it would help your stance if you give a reason not related to the game being broken with 16 people on 4 boxes that it wasn't designed for. : Before we left, Korny gathered us all for a quick group photo. Then
What happened here is someone (CaneCutter I think) said I should hold my arm out like that so they could shop Snipe in, and we took a group picture, then we took another one and someone said we should act sad. I wasn't sure if that was a serious comment or not or if anyone would actually do it, and no one told I could or should stop my pose, so I held it. : I think the last thing I remember participating in was a conversation about
If only I could remember anything we said. I do remember I got Leviathan to sign my HBO shirt though, well, monogram it. : I stood in the doorway, spun around a few times so everyone could see and
I'm pretty sure I didn't say "Spartans don’t have purple lights", and I probably wouldn't have asked if I agreed they were cool-- the rest of I do agree was cool, though. : And the group shot I've noticed some things here: firstly, it looks like a caveman stumbled into our LAN party...
and secondly,
: If you haven’t played L4D2 in a LAN setting, you are missing out on some
They were in a few games of Reach that we played too. : As the night began to wind down, Bones ordered some more pizza and we started
He actually played the first two levels, then we had lunch, then I joined him for the rest of the game. We didn't go looking for easter eggs, at least I didn't because I'm still going through Halo Anniversary with the new graphics (yes, still), and I think he only got a few things. The unfortunate cable incident was already mentioned, so I don't need to mention it again. : After a quick shower and one last donut, Jennos and I discussed all the fun
: Ok, so we really just got in my truck and drove off but it was still pretty
another tidbit: people gradually left and my group was one of the last to go, and AFAIK the only one to come back, because Six min Whistle forgot something : I had a great time playing with everyone and an even greater time meeting
