    oh, oh ,oh i remember another one:

    When i played CS (curse you) on a friends LAN (only 6 people overall) all night long the next morning ( i have slept for about 3 hours), it was actually about 12 o clock i was heaving breakfast, sitting comfy in my chair and sudenly i heer a 'beep'
    I jump up, running in my room, yelling '****, i forgot to defuse the freaking bomb!' !!!
    Actually it was just my alarm clock that rung, but in my mind i was SURE thet there would be a bomb in my room, crazy stuff.

    My Parents weren´t to confident about i either...

    When I'm seriously bored in class I find myself replaying NS or WC3 matches I've played lately in my head.

    Just thinking about like what would've happened if so-and-so had done this... etc.

    I get pretty bored in class sometimes. <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif'><!--endemo-->

    That's not the point. The fact is, if you keep playing too much, you can get muscle twitches and that is not a good sign... Chrck out a few articles about it. Not to be really scared about it, but you should get some rest after that... <!--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 the trying-to-swat-a-fly-with-the-mouse thing, as well as trying to press my computer's restart button with the mouse.

    Think i've only had one actual NS dream, and the marines all had Max-Paynesque bullet time <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    About a few years ago I was in a parking lot looking at a smoke stack. I wanted to see it close and my zoom finger for tribes (yes this was a long time ago) tried to hit zoom. Sadly I did not get to see it closer. And I thought **** WHY CANT <i>I</i> HAVE A ZOOM BUTTON!?!? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Urgh... After playing Gunbound for a few hours, all the letters in the IRC window looked like little vehicles to me.

    ahahah. I went for like 20 minutes looking for kharaa in the drainage system in my hometown. It was at like 3:00 in the morning and I had not slept for, well over a day I think, and then my friend who was ahead of me turned back said WTeF are you doing!

    Don't ask what we were doing in the tunnels that late either. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Whenever things happen I always expect some sort of little "beep" and I get really dissapointed when there is no beep. That's pretty sad.

    One morning after a long stint of NSing I was laying in bed and a car drove in the driveway and honked it's horn. I blearly leaned over expecting to see the hivesight indicators warbling back at me.

    ...sad...

    I stopped playing Black and White after I kept hearing the word "death" whispering in my mind even with the computer was off. Couldn't sleep with that happening.
    I have at times tried to press F6 to quickload after a hard nights gaming. Of course, I'm not actually at the computer then <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'm not as bad as you guys but when I'm trying to navigate the cursor through my text documents but I keep putting my finders on the wsqe* keys wondering why the cursor isnt moving and stupid letters keep coming up.

    And when I'm talknig in AIM I keep puttings Y's and U's before everything I say.

    And when I talk to myself in my head I'm always speaking in l337.







    *Yes thats right I use the wqse keys, as my fingers are more comforable in that postion, I'm a gaming oddity...

    rofl, I actually tried clicking OK there.

    One time after a long 1.04 marathon I kept hearing gorges building while I was trying to sleep. I also constantly go to the wasd keys whenever I get on the computer.

    Black Mage, I laugh at your waypoint thingie.
  • Smoke_NovaSmoke_Nova Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8697Members
    I've had it happen where I sat in my room for 20 minutes waiting for a waypoint. Then I remembered that this is reality.


    And i've had it happen where I expect little IM's to pop up when I phone a friend.

    -i had a dream in cs once i think

    -after a long session, i went on AIM and before the first word of every message i typed, i press y (ie the 'say' command in NS). ex.
    ywhat we doing later?
    ywhat tiem?

    gets annoying removing thoes y's
    this also happens sometimes in irc

    -i cant see the clock 10' away, prolly not a good sign

    -i hear occasional NS sounds in real life, but this was worse with some other games (team fortress was crazy)


    my worst thing ever however was this:
    I actually tried strafe jumping (bunny hopping). it flashed in my mind that it was totally possible, but alas it didnt work. :-/


    I purposfully play thoes "imaginary games" of NS in my head. the bots are damn good, and it actually helps your skill A LOT. im not kidding. if you cant do something (say, learning to bunny hop), just do it alot while playing the imaginary game, and when u wake up the next day, u'll be tons better at it.






    i've yet to binge play NS (binge playing, now for the whole family to enjoy, as soon as i get off the com.....), but i like to binge play games just so i can dream in them, sooooo cool
