Technically, not really, but colloquially, pretty much.

I study in the "College of Engineering " at the "University of Cincinnati." (Uh oh now people can stalk me.)

Nobody in America (aside from weird people) say "I am in University." We say "I am in college."

My one highpoint of the night (should have screenshotted): 2v2 before people joined tonight.

Sciz and crusading monkey were playing against cheeto and me, just 2 scouts against us (scout and spy). We were doing melee and sandman only and goofing off. At one point monkey went afk for a second and the two scouts tried 2-3 times to tauntkill him but somehow missed.

So I finally went spy disguised as soldier with shovel, then stood in part of the map without moving until they noticed me. Both Sciz AND monkey managed to run up behind me, taunt at the same time, and both get backstabbed as I ran behind while they taunted. :lol

It's pretty easy really. American Universities are made up of different departments of education (Engineering, communication, arts, sciences etc) that are typically all in different buildings on campus. We don't really shorten university to "uni" like you do in Europe so we just say "college" instead because you could make a sandwich in the time it takes to say "university".

There's only been one since the Hugo episode. O: I just watched it earlier today.

(I could be wrong, I guess. I have a notoriously awful memory!)

OH shit! You are right! I'll probably bust it out sometime later tonight. That's crazy. Season 5 was kind of a downer, it took me like 2 weeks to get through, but I blasted through what is available of season 6 in like half a week. sogood.gif

Hmm...well at the University of Toronto, where I unfortunately graduated from, the whole campus was a 'university' and there was a building that usually focused on a special area that we called a 'college'. I was from Innis College, which focused on film studies. I didn't HAVE to take film studies to go there, it was just a place we associated with.

Aaaaaaaaaaanyways, back to the game. Sciz's spah checking skills seemed to dip a little today! :D

I could've had you twice more Sciz, but that damn sniper had the razorback and another time you turned around at the last second... :(

Pretty good game all around.

So Sciz's name is off the list...

Ah, American education.

Looking for srs spy all the time is tiresome. :(

You ate sentry a few times, so I'm satisfied.

Ha ha, I would have signed on earlier last night but I had to watch Lost. And then right away the friend I usually talk Lost stuff with was busy for something and when she was finally free I was busy on the GAF server. c'est la vie...

I would have jumped on the server too, but I was finishing an assignment, and then power went out for an hour in the goddamn capital fucking city :rage:
At least everything was backed up :>

srs spah?! I just waited for a chance to target you a little more than usual since I need a lot more practice.

We did have a full server though. :D

I'd spy check more if it actually concerned me, or made my score lower.

I'll revise my statements. About 25% of the time, bumping into a spy makes his cloak shimmer. Shooting a disguised spy does not make his disguise deactivate - this only happens when he's dead. The only way you know he's disguised is behavior and the fact that your bullets don't pass through him, which is fair enough.

I play on SourceOP's 2fort server a lot, and thus bump into plenty of spies in the sewer. It's not often that you run right into them and see any type of shimmer. In fact, it just ends up looking like lag, which isn't a good thing on that server since it's also prone to spikes. It balances out because they have a hard time getting by a heavy, nor can they cheese a side swipe stab. Thus they die much more often.

Okay here you go. Last night was the first night I wasn't bored to tears within an hour in a while. I guess I'm not as burnt out as I was afraid I might be.

AND SO

Direct Hit air reflect WHAAAT - I will never be able to do this again.
Nyah ny--DAMN - I mean I probably could have just run away to survive humiliation. But that's boring.
Air shot like a mother - Skeet shooting is the best?!
NO SCOPE - Somebody stop me I'm getting cocky. D:
Kuro sez what - He looks so adorable when he's all confuse!
Spaceb0y dies and I lament - Oh, behave.
DEMOMEN GET OUT - You have been warned.
Looks like it's all up to me - As usual, the sniper has to do all the dirty work.

Not much happened tonight (while I was around), but here you go.

lol alltalk - I kind of wish they'd fix this, but then again it's not like alltalk is a thing people do when they care
Sup Sciz - literally less than one hour before doing this I was saying to myself, "shit, I'm never gonna get this cheesemint"... and lo!
Uber telegrag ]= - welp
Uh oh it's Kuro - OMG CRITS

edit: everything's processed, but sciz's demise will be better quality with time

Awesome, I just noticed you had a clip of this. I should have just destroyed the tele, but I wanted to burn flesh!

It's great listening to the voice chat, since I have it muted almost every match. One of these days I'll turn it on and 'become a complete player'. :lol

2fort stops being fun when the jerkass defensive engineer doesn't let the jerkass offensive engineer into his base. :(

Yeah, I said you were doing a good job, and finally switched off of heavy to go hunt you down as a pyro. I think I killed you but then we were failing so I went back heavy to barely win it. :(

Bah! You're always a scout or lulz sniper. I never get a chance to backstab you. :(

Spies are why I don't play engineer at all. It's one of my favorite classes but spies ruin it for me. You sit for like 15 minutes camped on a sentry nest in 2fort and all the sudden a spy comes out of nowhere and ends it. ENDS. IT.

Hate. HATE. Half the reason I like scout is that spies rarely bother with me.

I started out going 0-6 and worse on F7. I switched to the NeoGAF server and got killed by n0b like 6 times in a row! It was tragic!

But eventually he switched to a different class than heavy, and he finally played my Don't Worry be Happy song. I and my medics were inspired! It's super effective!

US doesn't differentiate between colleges and universities. In Canada we do it right!

PS: My projects are over. All I got left is one take home exam to finish and then I'm off for four months :D Full-time work until September!

Somebody named iKevin called me out for bodyshotting him a number of times.

I don't know if he's a gaffer, but he quit the match not too long after. Take that. Just had to rub it in.

I notice storyteller and spotless playing. Java always annoys me on steam to come and join ( :lol ) but i figured the ping would be too high. Might give it a shot one day.
