Gateway issues, why Red Bull is bad and how to properly wield a machete.
Or: Easter LAN 2005 wrap-up
Our second annual Easter LAN party is over. I intended to get some really spectacular pictures, but alas the digital camera never made it downstairs this weekend. I'm a bad Internet denizen.
What I can tell you, though, is that this weekend taught me a few valuable lessons:
- The Motorola VoIP box that Vonage sent us acts as a router if you pass a line through it from the router. Good to know.
- Even a twenty-year-old cannot consume a half-dozen cans of Red Bull, most of a case of Mountain Dew, not sleep for forty-eight hours and not reap the rewards. Hope you had a good nap, Paul.
- My score in Far Cry almost doubles when I avoid using guns and just rush people with the machete. Jessi's pretty much the only one who can survive this tactic, although to be fair she has cat-like reflexes that I could never hope to defeat. It's a good thing I did a low-level format on her machine after the party was over (I'm kidding, dear).
- Not all geeks who enjoy scary Japanese anime porn are creeps. They might still be creepy, but they're not creeps. Mad <3, Tim ;)
- They still make Squirt soda. Huh.
- I get grouchy when I don't get enough sleep. I must be getting old.
- Yep, I still suck at UT.
