Too Much Time Infront Of Your Computer?

Pithlit

<div class="IPBDescription">I think so!</div> This topic is for all the nice things, that happen after a night you play through, or a very long LAN Party.
Here come my to favourites:

1. Trying scratch my head with my mousepointer as it itches (happens often, after LANs when im back in Windows)
2. The Room is to dark for you, what would you do?

Possibility 1: Turn up the Gamma of your monitor (happened only once to me)
Possibility 2: Turn up you SPEAKER (happened a few minutes ago, thats why im posting this!)


Please add your own funny/disturbing(no Pr0n)/hilarious stunts after too much CPU.

Only real things, please!

Heh, the one thing I've noticed that's happening quite a lot nowadays is that every time I see or hear something funny, I say LOL. Yes, I say "LOL"... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

when I'm drawing stuff I keep forgetting there's not an 'undo' button and there's no layers =s
means I can really mess up some drawings sometimes <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

uh, the undo button reminds me of something:
As i played on my SNES Emulator all the day (you counld make quicksaves with your 'F' buttons ald load with shift-F [games get rather easy with this, but its fun!]), well i play actually all night, it was 6 in the morning i made myself some breakfast and i cut myself wit a knofe. nothing deep, just a little bleeding and i 'instinctivley' tried to hit the appropiate F Button (my Fingers twitched to the kitchen desk [since i always load if i get hurt, when i play this way]), some seconds later i remmeber that this is real life, i was very upset about it...

After a super long session of NS a long time ago, I could have SWORN I was hearing medpacks being dropped. After playing Aliens for awhile I can sometimes hear the sound of skulks biting off in the distance...

welcome back form your temp suspension

I also hear NS sounds at times.
I think i'll hear gorge building or web placing!
the most common is when I am SURE that I can hear the ns_hara level music!

RPG_Jssmfulhud

Oh, you can hear other sound after a long computer night too... Gets scary... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

The worst i've had is a dream in Action Half-Life. Yes, complete with ammo counter, health counter, typing to talk and holding a handcannon. I was "playing" AHL in my school.

nightdragon

I constantly say "Lol" and "ROFL" *pronouneced ro-full*

I remember in music class i but my fingers to a wasd position on a keyboard, and was practising my guitar at home, and did the same thing on the fretboard. :S

Edit//Typo

Talesin

Well, most of my long-hours are pulled in more mundane pursuits like Maya modelling, writing or coding... but when I was heavily into Starcraft, I constantly played for about three days solid. After I turned off the computer (as I said, it was long ago), I ended up running through the house, screaming, as I kept hearing the SCVs mining minerals. It didn't stop by the time I woke up the next day, scarily enough.

Thansal

yahhh

my problem comes from to much HL in general

I think y before anything I say or type any where else

people often catch me typing y before my msgs in chat rooms and such <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

I also THINK lol to my self (I don't say it, it is a little Too lame for me ;P)

but yah, I think the way I type and type the way I think, so my thought proceses are REALLY wierd <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> (you NEVER wana get into my head ;P)


note, the over use of smiles with the tounge sticking out is b/c that it an expression I use often irl <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

That's exactly, what I tend to do sometimes... And Talesin, when I was so into Starcraft (although not so extreme <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> ), I too heard the SCV mining... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

in typing class i constantly am being yelled at for keeping my hands on WASD instead of ASDFG

Icarus

Once after playing NS for a loooog time (6 hour PUB game), I got off my computer and i started thinking wow i didnt know that my house was a map! I also stared thinkin "****, since when did half-life run the real-life engine?" Yes, i scared my self there. Then i realised that i should be sleeping not playing ns till 2 in the morning.

The next day in school i started to hear sulks, fades, lerks and gorges at random. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

I hate when a bug lands on the monitor and I try to hit it away with the mouse :| then I get ashamed of myself haha

I once played UT in ultra-slow motion and I got up from playing and I walking real slowly, hehe

I played NS for 20 hours straight when 2.0 came out, after it did I had to goto a saturday detention with like 5 other kids, I was all alone near the chapel room (I goto a private school) and I kept hearing skulk chuckles and stuff, then my friend snuck up behind me and I said 'Commander I need ammo!'
And I even had my hands in a pistol position... God it was embarrasing.

Caboose

You do that at my school in Colorado you get arrested. Damn Jefferson County schools (yes same district as Columbine)

ANeM

Wow.. Nothing like that ever happens to me.. I just think about playing NS when I'm really bored.. (ie: Falling asleep in math class and playing NS in my mind... Damn those are some good bots I have in my mind. Good bots indeed.)

and some times I hear skulks biting.. but thats okay, I'm usually playing alien anyways, so its a nice friendly sound. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

I've done that before, its pretty trippy. I'll start walking around the house, step by step, thinking "Man, this is weird, I'm so much faster now..."

But as for weird experiences related to being on the comp too long, I tihnk I have you all beat; I once had a dream about chatting with friends over AIM. Seriously, in my dream I sat there and typed messages to them over the comp. Next morning I got up and I'm like "Man, I gotta get away from the comp".

I once played a text based multiplayer game for 34 hours straight.




yes you can all feel better about yourselves now.

Once during the playtesting of 2.0 I fell asleep while in the server at my computer, there were a few angry comments 6 hours later when I finally got back and checked irc. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Earlier my brother told me something and I replied with a simple s.t.f.u.


This isn't so odd for me, considering that I often use pwned for the heck of it.
