    Girl Gamers

    Ah, the debate of decades... It's certainly true that a lot less girls seem to play games than guys, I have a few theories... 1. Girls tend to do lots more socially. Maybe this is by virtue of being a girl, but growing up I always found that girls would go shopping, walk around aimlessly...

    Accused of being "foreign" when playing online?

    I've been accused of being unintelligible, which probably implies foreign (on the other hand, I was a little drunk, and talking veryveryfast, so the accusation may have been well-founded). And there are indeed many wonderful Americans, US-dwellers or otherwise, who are wonderful people. By...

    Immature.

    Absolutely. I have to sleep in the corner too, facing out into the room; so I can see them coming. (Though that may be more psychotic than immature) When I'm bored, I tend to imagine myself swinging from street lamps and pylons etc, spiderman-esque. I've yet to actually attempt it though.

    Medical Conditions

    Never thought I'd find myself typing this, but QFE. Light headedness? Dear lord, that could be malnutrition, dehydration, inner ear problems, low blood pressure, high blood pressure, anxiety or epilepsy. Or it could be menstruation. Or maybe haemorrhaging (I love my spell checker). Or...

    Screen names and Avatars

    Nyshano is relatively new. Up until about a year ago, I was whiterider, and still am in some places. I thought up this name when I was twelve, because I had a thing (no, not that kind of thing) for horses. When, four years later, someone showed me the urban dictionary definition of a whiterider...

    Earthquake in the UK

    Aye, felt it in Berkshire - though I was asleep, so it just added an interesting twist to what was already a true acid trip of a dream. As for tectonic plates; no, we're not near any plate boundaries - we are indeed on the Eurasian plate - but the UK is criss-crossed with minor fault lines...

    what do you think about ctrl alt del

    I won't comment on Tim himself - I know absolutely nothing about the guy beyond what I've read here and, really, I don't care that much. In regards to the allegations about the girl - I've seen a similar thing happen to a friend, and despite it being a load of bollocks, the only real way to keep...

    Signs of Addiction

    Thanks to having every game I play keymapped to have the same camera controls, I now try to press 0 to look behind me when walking down the street. I occasionally mutter "Not again.. I need to fix this damn keyboard" when it doesn't work, too.

    Favorite way to kill (or be killed) in a video game.

    RA2's terrorist trucks were always amusing, nothing like watching a base go up in flames courtesy of its own sentry guns. And in any console fps... if you can say "shit, I was looking at your screen!" while your char is falling off the edge of something tall, you know you're a winnar. My...
