So today in the weird but wonderful world of a nerd there I was thinking of what I could do to pass some time. I sat down to read a few chapters of a book (Jurassic Park is still Awesome) and then watched a few episodes of Doctor Who and then decide to do a little lives streaming over on my Twitch.tv channel ... *!Shameless Plug alert!"* twitch.tv/esvakas ... Told ya.
So there I was just about to hit "Start Streaming" when I noticed something was off, everything looked a bit dull, so after about twenty minutes in photoshop I made a nice new overlay for the channel and jumped into some Sniper Elite III, and I was in my "Kill all, leave none alive" mode and channelling the spirit of some of the finest snipers of the last eighty years .... well at least in my mind anyway and so I was in, Time to kill!!!!
I come around the corner of a rock and see a shape vanish into a doorway and follow it, I go in, up the stairs, turn around and he hasn't seen me. He has a buddy on the floor below him, and above him. At this point I'm confident enough to kill this guy with out alerting the other two cause they will just think it's him shooting at some hapless Noob running out in the open, and I was right! and down he goes with a headshot. I go to the bottom level, same thing, another shot to the back of the head, then I climb the ladder and take out the last one. SUCCESS! I think, "The Clock Tower is ours" I call confidently down the Microphone.
Within thirty seconds I'm laying in a pool of blood and the match ends, Someone got a lucky shot off when I poked my head up, but thankfully we won and the timer started to tick down to the next map. And thats when it happened ...
...."You have been removed from the game!" ...
Stunned!, I sit there looking at the screen for several moments wondering why, and I almost tipped into the pool of anger, but shrugged it off voiced a "Meh" and logged out of the game thinking "Well that was ...not nice"
I guess it's just one of those days in the weird and wonderful world of a nerd ....
