Sing the Praises of Stats

April 7th, 2008 · 11 Comments · Uncategorized

This was posted on a TF2 board I frequent by someone who kills me a lot:  it’s a TF2 Stats Parser.  Just download it, plug in your tf2_playerstats.dmx file, and see how you’re doing in incredible detail.
Here are my stats to date.  I’m somehow underwhelmed by my killatude.  I also think the playtime is off […]

Server Sapped

April 7th, 2008 · 11 Comments · 1Fort Server Stuff

So, the 1Fort server expired — as is probably evident, I never really got it rolling.  After a couple frustrating hours trying to install working admin mods I sort of gave up on it.  Also, I forgot how much I hated administrating things.  Within a couple hours of putting it up last month I was […]

Demoman: Eve Online

April 6th, 2008 · 27 Comments · The Demoman

The Eve Online demo is a massively MMORPD (the D is for demo) where you play the part of a spaceship. Technically, you’re really a person inside a spaceship, but you never get out and walk around, so you’re basically a spaceship.

For all the hundreds of hours I’ve spent in Garry’s Mod, I’m very much a noob when it comes to playing it online. […]

There’s Someone Over This Way That Needs a Cross

April 2nd, 2008 · 12 Comments · YouTube

This YouTubery is probably twice as long as it needs to be, but it’s still hilarious.
A guy has his girlfriend play TF2 for the first time while he records the resulting confusion, carnage, and compassion. Sound required.
EDIT:  The guy, named Simon, also has a gaming blog, called Lava Level, which I’m adding to my […]

Valve Totally Ruins Thing I’ve Never Heard Of

April 2nd, 2008 · 10 Comments · TF2 News

So, there was a TF2 update last night, and among the items, this:
Changed Medigun Ubercharge meter to drain faster for each target that still has Ubercharge beyond your current target. This means there is a penalty for having multiple people being Ubercharged at one time
I couldn’t even parse this — at first I thought it […]

G-Mod & Steam Stuff

April 1st, 2008 · 9 Comments · Uncategorized

For anyone experiencing problems with the latest G-Mod update, there’s a patch ready now, so restart Steam and git you somma dat.
Also, Assassin’s Creed, which I’m fairly curious about, will be available over Steam, at least for the people who live on the same continent as I do. You can even pay for it […]

Insert Totally Original Fakeout Post Title Here

April 1st, 2008 · 7 Comments · Gaming

So, it’s April 1, the most annoying day on the internet, where people change their websites to look different and it’s supposed to be funny or something.  Also, your Google Reader fills up with bullshit news posts.  Whatever.  I’m a grouch.
I do have an update to Living In Oblivion, finally.  Day 12 is now up.  […]
