YAY! I fixed the freaking network!
Turns out I had Kerio blocking traffic on the network or something. It blocked pings and the Microsoft File and Printer sharing thing. Now I got everything working (not flawlessly yet, sometimes I need to disable real quick to view the comps on WORKGROUP and then I can reenable and browse) so with a little more tweaking, I got my stuff good! :D

You was optical illusion'd!
Ok guys, this is a cool optical illusion I had saved on my drive. First click on the iamge to get the full sized image. I guess you could do it without full size, but w/e. Anyway, look at both real quick and you see they look pretty much the same, but the right side is more blurred and light. Ok, now stare at the one at the left, at the lil red dot in the middle, for 30 seconds. Then look at the middle of the on on the right. The right side completely fades away! :D 

*Western theme music* Draw partner!
Hey, check out this cool site Fatty (Fatgirl, my sister Giselle...'member?) found. Lets you draw and record stuff, and then send to someone. I'll probably do one everyday, that way I'll have something to post even if I have nothing to post ;)
Today's Toucantastic Test, I drew this from a little toucan statue sovenir I got from Costa Rica some years (2? o_O) ago.
Anyway, yesterday was amazing and awesome. I knifed Casbar 4 times. Casbar ppl, that was so not his day. So that was cool, and the lightning storm we had in the evening was awesome too. The lights were all screwy at work and the battery back ups on all the comps were beeping constantly since the lights were going in and out. They had a generator and all this junk for power backup, so we always had a little power (for the comps atleast) and we never got sent home. Darn. :D

Comic blog...
Oh, its nothing big...just a little teaser image for...my comic. This does take quite a long process (well, it could be finished within...~6 hours or so), but when you only have...2-4 hours total in the day free, and you use all of it playing on TNT...! :D So this thing will definitely start rolling after school is done. I gotta change some things though, like learn how to display one post at a time, and add those next and previous buttons. I can't even figure out how to chnage the background color from white to tan! I blame it on society...

Womp
Did some timing s and such, laptop boots (everything) in about 45 seconds, while the desktop takes atleast 1.5 minutes, just so I can click the start menu (still needs to load a couple mroe programs). So yea...I will reformat, sometime after June 2nd when I'm done with school (1 MORE MONTH TILL VICTORY DARN IT!) and then that way, I won't have to reinstall my homeschool program, which installs some other crap like this SQL server which runs and slows down start time. I don't expect laptop times on this machine, but anything under a minute is good enough.
Anyway...a lot of my American tourney friends discovered TNT last night (TNT is the server me and the euro guys always play on) and they apprently had a blast. I was so mad though cuz I didn't capture one flag last night. The pubbies camp more, mines double in amount around flag, and there were 5 more of my teammates playing on the other side (I always join the opposite of their side, to even things out ^_^) so you know...I almost knifed Saptiva again, but I really messed that up. >_< Oh well, we'll see what happens tonight! :D

Yea...the silence...
I haven't posted for a couple days now. I'm not sure why, maybe I haven't had much to post about? You must've all been devastated the past days, without any reading material to...read...online. ;) Anyway, I plan on reformatting my comp soon, getting to slow for my liking. Needs some cleaning up anyway (Laptop is still a ~1 booter upper, its so sweet! :D). Lets hope that I dont bloat Windows up again. >_<

Comics or something...
Yea, now that I have a full set of art stuff (tablet pad, scanner, Photoshop, Streamline (raster to vector) and the might pencil and pen) I'm gonna try to draw some comics for 21CW. The comic will probably be called "Just Deserts" (you know? When you get "your just desserts" but this is desert, as in the dry barren place on not ice cream, since 21CW is based in the Gulf War....desert...:P) and I'll prob start a separate blog for it...:)

Part 3.5:
Yes, I'd just like to mention a couple more people! :D
Marter: Marter is the guy, who even though he's on your team, you just have to kill. Everyone TK's (team kills) Marter for unknown reasons, apparently he enjoys that or something. I know we all do! :D
Bubba: Bubba was our General last campaign and is not...a Sargeant Major I believe. He and Marter have been playing old games for a long time...as they are old...and Bubba has the funniest I'm-gonna-lose-mybreathe type laugh ever! I don't know how he does it.
Oz: Oz was our Captain, and is now a Major or something! He's a bad ICV driver, but a heck of a tanker (people who drive tanks! You gotta understand that one).
Saptiva: 1 of the...I believe its 4 girls, in the whole Opposition side. Yes, ladies play Battlefield too :P Saptiva is killer with a PKM and she's recently become the Ninja company's captain! We all love Saptiva, and if you check out my sig, I have fun sneaking up and knifing her quite a bit!
Bleh: Is still a noob, a poor poor college boy or something, but hey, if you need to Google something and happen to have a paypal account, sign up and use this one! :D
and yea....here's my sig that was mentioned...

I wub you Newegg...
I just bought my DGL-4300 Wireless Gaming Router:

and my Canon Canonscan Lide 35:

WOoWoo! Now I'll have wireless on the laptop, I'll have a network that finally won't lag me in Battlefield when...let's say, the fat girl over doesn't go onto some turtle forum, aaannd I'll now be able to scan in my drawings. ^_^

Part 3?
Aight, I'm just gonna give a rundown on my closer teammates and stuff, incase I ever mention em to ya! ;)
Casbar: Casbar's a New Zealander who is living in England at the moment. He has a wife who is great at math (apparently, he says she knows more than him), and 2 little girls. Casbar is the Arty guy in the tournament and he's pretty much my best competition. I'e played Battlefield since it came out, and simply put, I'm good at it. I will take anyone, anyday, in anything, just for the challenge, and usually I'll win. I always get into the top 10 in a public server, and usually pop in to the top 3. Casbar is pretty much the only one who can stop me! He's learned almost all of my tactics that I use on him. For instance, we play on the TNT server ll the time, as it is our favorite server. Its a modded CTF server with flying (or just, extremely good nitro eqipped) DPVs, humvees, and strikers. You'll always find me driving the DPV with nitro flyin and me trying to capture the flag. Now, pretty much the only time I can cap it, is if Casbar is dead or distracted. He's memorized most of my entry points, he knows that if he doesn't see me for a certain amount of time, I must be in a helicopter or something, taking an extremely stealthy approach (which is no longer stealth yas he knows already :P), and he's just a killer with the Bradley. Casbar's so much fun to play with, and his evil laughter just adds to the adrenaline rush for the next attempt to capture the flag! :D A problem I have when capping the flag, is that instead of acutally capturing the flag like I'm suppose to, if I see Casbar sitting in the SCUD or a Shilka for instance, I'll forget the flag, boost my DPV straight into him, and usually kill him as my DPV flips and flies back on its tires!
Easygreen: Easygreen is like...the Michael who lives across the oceans. We "hate" each other with this sort of brotherly love type thing. We talk smack about each other, about how we're gonna pwn each other or something, how each of us suck at this or that, and then I get him to shut up by just knifing him. ^_^ Easygreen is a great sniper, who loves killing me and who gets all the girls...so he says...;) Easygreen and his good friend Nipz will be coming from England to visit me in July! Hope I can drag em to youth group so I can introduce yall to them :)
Agent_Death: I call him Agent, is one of the youngest (13 years old I think) player in 21CW. We're great buds and he's a great companion when trying to cap the flag on TNT. He calls me a monk for some reason, he has parakeets that are too loud, and he has a faster connection (like 3+ mbits) but slower comp (Geforce 5700) than me. I try and help out Agent too, give him advice on things in his life whenever possible, and he's just a cool little guy.
Smitty: Ok, this is the weirdest thing that could've happened. Smitty is a 14 (15?) year old who is homeschooled, goes to church, plays Battlefield, and who just HAPPENS to live 30 mintues north of me in Boca Raton! :D I couldn't believe it when I heard all that after playing with Smitty for a while. I'm not sure how we met, but it sure was quite the surprise. Smitty, like he says, "Is the little brother I never wanted" and I'm "the brother he never had", or something like that. He's a single child who loves he word "spaz" and he's just great fun to kill ingame. We also like playing Soldat a lot, and Smitty is just such a find. :)
Bleh: He's a noob
And if any of you 21CW guys read this, don't worry, you're still graet people even if I didn't mention you! :P I just can only type so much...
Anyway, that's enough typing for me...I can't believe I actually wrote about half of all this, only to lose it as the Blogger "Save Draft" button brought me to an error page, and then having to write it again >_<

Division & Companies
Ok, so here's pretty much how it goes:
There are two teams...Coalition (Americans) and Opposition (Iraqi). I'm on Opp. side (yea yea, whatever, the Coalition guys are a bunch of punks :P). Then from those teams, each team has 2 divisions. That's 4 in total. On Opp side there are the 2SA (2nd Syrian Army) and 10AD (10th Armoured Division). I'm on 10AD. Everyone uses a nickname, and as usual, mine is Stealth. Anyway, from each division, its split up into a couple of companies. IN 10AD we have Al-nida (may company), Republican Guard, Fedayeen, Ninja, Artillery, and Zubayr (our Air Force). Anyway, what my 1337 company usually does is within the region of spec-ops or assualt missions within our point. Sometimes we may be called to bail from a helicopter (this nice chunky bird we call the Hippo :D) onto a point and capture it. We get a custom map every battle (which we have every week). The map has a certain amount of points (like, areas to capture) taht we need to get. If we control more than hlaf the other team "bleeds". You see, in the beginning of that round for the map, we have a certain amount of tickets. Lets say...700. Now from that amount, you lose 1 for very kill, and if you get the other team bleeding, it means that they are losing 1 ticket at a constat rate (of about a couple of seconds). Just reread that till you understand because I think I almost lost myslef in that! :D Ok, gotta go to practice! I will explain more tomorrow...PART 3!

Me and my tournament...
Just a little explanation to yall and what I do most of the time.
I play a FPS called Battlefield 1942. The game is extremely fun, even though it came out back in 2002. Obviously graphics are aging and such, but its just too much fun. Especially because I always play Desert Combat. Desert combat is a mod for Battlefield, which simply put, modifies the game from a World War 2 scenario to a more modern Gulf War based time. Now, after playing DC (Desert Combat)a while, I had a friend named "Thunder" from a Total Annihilation forum who also played DC. I had sent him a CD Image (its like burning a CD, but the CD isn't a physical copy, but a file on your computer, which you can then burn onto a CD again. I had to do this because Thudner lives in England!) since he had lost his. After playing around with DC for some weeks (pretty much illegally, as he also used a No-CD crack) he bought the game. He had also invited me to a tournament he had found called 21st Century Warfare. I eventually joined, hearing his voice over Teamspeak for the first time, and actually talking with my voice to other people online for the first time. Anyway, thats pretty much how I started in 21CW (as we call it for short). I've been playing for 3 campaigns now, probably since...before the middle of last year. I'll post a bit more about how it works, times, and my team later on.
