Wow Bozo, you managed to insult everyone but yourself, Sonic, and Esuna.  I'm impressed.

I disagree, I would not trust Esuna and Sonic as admins.  I don't trust myself as admin. I don't mind playing with them...some days.  But it seems that 75% of the time they complain, and to me, that doesn't seem fun.  I don't play on LM to be ridiculed, sworn at, and overall be a target for the pent-up frustrations of a person I've never met.  I play on LM to have fun, and even if I'm losing, that's fine (So long as nobody TDs me on purpose.)  I'm here for the people.  And Perhaps you disagree because you haven't been around much.  I can certainly say I haven't seen you much.

They had to drop and build them.

You had to look at either the demo or screenie (maybe both) and then go ahead and reply.  It's gonna be close.  Especcially if they used sv_cheats.   :cool:

I can't say I expected it.  

I can't say I'm particularly suprised by it.

I can say that I'm behind the admins on this.  Good call.

General / Tip for shooting for marines?

While also having fun.

This is NS.  That goes without saying (Unless I'm being TKed or TDed, then, heads will roll)

Practice.  Play the game.  I never found anything quite that effective.  But if you really want to, I'll tell the same thing as always.  

Aim smoothly.  Get used to not jerking around so much.  A lot of guns are automatics in NS, and there is no kickback, so simply tracking the target is often the thing that is the difference between a kill and a death.

I did this by drawing lines on walls with my LMG when I was bored in MS......it's easy to see how you aim when there are bulletholes everywhere you point it.

After you get good at that, try to aim down a hall and simulate the movements of a skulk bunnyhopping as it comes at you.  Hold down trigger.

For the erratic skulk movements?  Spray and pray. >_<

That's what I did. I think I hold my own well enough, but I still think that if you have time for this, you have time to play the game more, and do some real work.  It's always best to train under pressure.

i think this is a Texas thing because when i was up in Oklahoma some jerk was talking down to me about being in the left lane when we both pulled into the same gas station.. but at least 'round these here parts the left lane is just the fast lane... if youre pulling a trailor or jsut dont like going 75 then you stick right and rest of us will mosy on past yer down towards yonder ways.

so yeah long story short i drive left lane all the time.. just depends on where i need to be.

In Michigan, there is no such thing as 'moseying' past someone with a trailer, or going the speed limit.  People will fly by ALL the time....unless there's a cop.  But here, the left lane is the passing lane, if you're in it, you're expected to be passing people.  So if you're not passing, slide over to the middle lane.  However, most of the time if you get into the left lane, you're gonna stay there, because all the huge trucks bo about 60.

General / What do I do wrong as Comm?

« on: April 30, 2005, 11:26:55 PM »

....ignore your marines, unless they fit YOUR strategy.  Don't get caught in the rut of following THEIR strategy.  You're the commander, that means you give orders, and they listen.   That's one thing I have seen too many good comms fall prey to.

Oh my, I am amused.  But he was wrong about one thing, 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address, not your own computer.  However, the result is the same.

Whoops, BM already said this.  But I'm too lazy to hit delete now.

I would be happy, I'm thinking of binding them to my arrow keys.

FF is part of the game, and a part that I've always treasured.  Also, I see it as part of LM.  I'll beg for it to stay, if I have to.

Dude, you win.  And I'm a pretty bad geek, but when Kodiac is confused.....maybe I'm just better at hiding it?  I knew what he was talking about....

I would prefer it removed.  I know it's amusing, I did it because it was.  But it was against the rules, and I knew that.  The fact that nobody was there or doing anything is no excuse.

I'm sorry I did that, and seeing as I was banned from the channel for it, I'd rather it not be publicized.  I do some stupid things at times, that is one of them.

As long as you tell me you're new, I will be 100% supportive of you.  I've been known to yell at your MARINES, but not a new comm.  And I only yell at them if they ignore you.  I've been doing it more, it's like comm rage, but while not in a chair.  All the fun parts of comming AND being a marine, all at once!

(BTW, if I do that and you get mad, feel free to tell me to go stuff it, like Nite does.)
