Halo: Reach |OT5| A Monument to All Our Sins

I don't care enough to time everything so I have no place there. Didn't really get to tone up my DMR at all either. Too busy gettin' wrecked by power weapon control. Meh. There is no moving from the ground up on that playlist. It's all the same core group of MLG tourney tryhards.

I thought MLG would be the perfect place to buff up my DMR skills. I soon found out that it's the worst playlist to do so.

I actually find Firefight to be the best, especially when you get to shoot Elites and Skirmishers.

Yes, you just reminded me of my biggest pet peeve in Reach. So lame.

If I owned a copy of it I totally would! :p I'll try and get my hands on it if I can, although I haven't read any of the other books yet either.
Definitely read the original three. Cryptum is also a great read as well.

Edit: Kittens, I got your invite, but then you went offline.

I have more respect for motherfuckers running in my direction with a sword.


edit-
played some Reach today, still horrible, but I had fun, just shook my head and laughed at all of Bungie's bad decisions since I was in a good mood and in the company of a good real life friend.

I do understand how you feel :p I like MLG but it really is nerd and competitive. Don't time every rockets spawn and you end up -15.
Oh and don't even bother playing in there if you're not at least in a team of 3*


*unless you know for sure you'll pull host every match... oh hey, Tash, how you doing today?!

That is because of how the game is, actually. No room for individual skill. Don't even start a 1v1 if you're not 100% sure you'll win. And bloom+trigger spam make everything worse lol...

Has it been said if Bungie will return to the Weekly Updates once they have things to update the Community on? I can't see them making a whole new game and Universe without an Update every week about the Dev process. It's still strange to look at B.Net on the weekends and not see some sort of update. You don't know what you had till....

Honestly, I feel the opposite. I can wait with Bungie, as long as it turns out perfect. I don't want anymore rushed products coming from them. The updates are cool, but they seemed to build too much hype at times. It's probably why I was disappointed with ODST and Reach.

If one wants like semi-competitiveness it's so frustrating in h3/Reach the way they set shit up. It's shit on bad kids or be shat on by semi-pros/mlg tryhards, it seems like getting a team at a similar level is nigh impossible.

Revert all funds to Seattle.

I wish. It's too close to the flight, I don't have money for the flight difference and then what Delta will charge me. :/

I'll get into the details of my Raleigh cancellation later or something. Wound still burns :(

edit: Oh, and then I would need a pass for PAX and HaloFest. Ya, don't have money for all that. I would fuckin die to go.

You know honestly someone is going to have to clue me in here.

I get that this was hilarious I was having a ton of fun while playing and I don't really care if he removed me.

I think I did pretty well that first game right?

I thought the whole thing was funny but what I want to know is, why is it THAT funny...? Go ahead, be blunt.

He's making fun of Eazy's "situational awareness", lol.

I groomed EazyB into the Halo player he is today. I live on, through him. *tear*

I'm assuming you couldn't get the time off from work, or your team backed out/dropped you Tashi?

GoogleAd for MLG Raleigh, lol.

I didn't get dropped, 2 of my teammates were stolen by really well known players.
:/ that sucks

Go to Providence, Puckett is guaranteed to be drunk all the time since it's Nationals.
There's a good chance that I actually will go to Providence (not as a player lol). My brother loves Starcraft so I'll probably go with him and watch Halo

lol, so these guys bailed on you to play with some well known players, knowing full well that you had already spent money and made preparations to go? Cool dudes.

Didn't you say you would basically poop on Lake Minnetonka, Starwolf? Eazy's commentary is pretty hilarious, especially his first no scope.

I'll be the honest one here. He is much much better than you, and most of the time he was just fucking around. Also, you tended to draw towards power weapons for most of your kills, while he used a support weapon to get a kill.

Well one of them had been wanting to bail for a while. I could feel it. And when he got the offer, he was 100% gone. The other one, who I've actually been playing with for a while, said to himself, "play with Tashi, try to find a 4th and probably place really shitty or play with these known players with a lot of points, probably get points and maybe get Top 32?" He chose the latter. Both of my former teammates are actually friends with the other known players either in real life or through Halo. It's fucked up either way.

Now I'm just trying to see if I could get a refund (highly unlikely) or try to change my flight to MLG Orlando and hopefully not have a swallow a huge charge. (Probably 200$)

I could fuckin throw up right now. I wish this happened earlier so I could go to fuckin PAX or something.

How did it happen in your stream, and who did they end up joining?

Thanks for the honesty haha.

However, I knew he was better than me, and even if he can say he was fucking around all he wants, doesn't change the score tho :D.

so who's next guys :p?

Oh sweet, Providence is like a 30 min drive from my house so I'll definitely be going.

Yeah, that sucks Tashi, but all this will do is drive you to put together one amazing team for Orlando.

That sucks Tashi. I wish you weren't so into the MLG culture so you wouldn't have to go through crap like this, you're a genuinely nice guy, you seem completely out of place in that douchebag-town community.

At least you'll be comfy at home to see Halogaf go crazy with the celebratory gifs, as info pours out of halofest.

And cheer up, my puppy has been working on his bloom settle, he'll be going with you to events in no time.


V hey vh don't rephrase my line in your quote :p
