Take it from them!

Glad you're doing good in school bro! Yeah Intermediate is a *****. I made a B in it. Did you figure if you want to do audit or tax?
I'm gonna start the special audit courses in the fall, and get me a nice certificate. Audit is indeed what I'd like to do.

Audit sounds much more exciting
Yes, yes it does.

i havent forgot tallman!
You're a good man, Charlie Brown.

Did he pay you the full amount as everyone else did? I only ask this because both of us only stayed 1 night in that room and 3 nights in Hylian's and Rauleen's.

I do. just this past week I started playing more COD, but before that I was banging out kids on Gears of War 3, a shooter that takes a lot of skill. oh hell yeah. this ain't no kiddie 3DS ****

p4: AK isn't THAT bad but still, it's outclassed by so many SMG's and other AR's. makes me sad cuz of how beast it used to be in COD4 and Black Ops.

only prof I have so far is kick so I have to use that. Stability will proly work best for AK47 I'm assuming but that's going to take awhile. As far as perks:
Perk 1: Sleight of Hand/Scavenger
Perk 2: Quickdraw/Assassin
Perk 3: Dead Silence/tried a little Stalker

idk maybe I was overreacting cuz I only played like 2 games earlier with it, but close range the AK47 was getting outclassed hard by SMGs.

Lol dude close range is SMGs specialty, just play it mid/far range and up close let off the ADS for hip fire and you should do good, drop shots are **** with the AK, you get a bunch of head shots usually.

Anyways use AK with silencer and extended mags once you get them, silencer without kick is really good for close range, with kick is better for long range.

Your perks are solid, I'm a Marksmen fan though

yeah I just had a few good games. went 25-8 and 30-5 using the red dot and then the silencer, nomnomxp. got my k/d up to 2.3.

what's your k/d btw? k/d doesnt mean anything but I'm just curious lol.

yeah that's not bad considering you started at MW2 afaik and you started late on MW2 on top of that. I was the same way on Gears 3, never played the other two and started out horrible but the more I played I got pretty beast.

not like k/d matters though -_- but I just slapped on marksman on my AK, let's see how it goes.

CONSOLE PSO not nerd computer PSO

i had a 122 HUmar but i think i F-ed up his stats too early. Ultimate Ruins was the farthest i got but i had to spend HOURS in ultimate Mines doing the Candine trick(appear in a room with the RED candine surrounded by the 8 green candine. spam the strongest fire spell untill the green candine die at the same time then ryuker out. rinse and repeat).

IIRC the jump from lvl 199 to lvl 200 is ALL the exp required from lvl 1 to 198. Correct me if im wrong. its been a while

I read the past several pages just now, cause I was away before.

And all I can say is... meh.

It sucks sometimes when you realize that no matter how much you try or how hard you work or how much you learn, some people will still be better than you at the things you put your effort into.

A year and a half and not much is different. Still free. And it's true, what separates good players from bad ones in the end is their mindset. Though anyone can learn at least a little... some are just better than others at it.

In the end everything is luck at the most basic level. You either start with the ability or you don't. If you don't, you can learn; but if you are naturally gifted/inclined when you start, then no matter how hard the people who aren't natural at something try, if you put in the same work, you will always be better.

Sometimes I just wonder... is life worth even living? In the end all people do is the same thing, unless you get lucky with someone already having done the work for you. We are born and taken care of by someone else's hard work, then as soon as we can learn, we're taught how to work (to varying degrees depending on a bunch of things). Then for the rest of our lives it's work, work and work some more. We work, because if we don't, we won't have the ability to survive... to work again the next day/month/year. I mean sure, sometimes we can enjoy ourselves.... but in the end, our whole existence is about working to make itself last longer, and in the end... we're dead. And the next generation does the same thing we are doing now.

Pessimistic post is pessimistic.

Meh.

Yeah MW2 was my first real shooter and I started in 2011 haha. All this talk about playing makes me wish we played on the same system :(

hmmmm....

I'm moving to Lewisville Texas on the 8th. I might consider coming to Hobo, just might. It'll be cool to get to know the Texas smash community. I know it's a 4 hour drive so I might not be feeling it after driving 15 hours from Ohio to Texas. But needless to say, you'll probably be seeing a lot more of me at future tournaments. I think I'mma try to start hosting some tournaments in my area once I get familiar with it.

And I'm bringing my bestfriend/brother with me as well, he's called Infern Angelis. You may have heard of him!;) We are The God Kais and we will officially be living in Texas. We're aiming for the top, starting from the bottom of your PR. We conquered the Midwest, now it's time for the South to get familiar with The God Kais....

Oh and Hi everyone...can't wait to kick it with you all...

People here have played PSO? Awesome. I have uhh... Episode 1 and 2 on GC. Never got to play them online, but that was a REALLY fun game. I never got to the last difficulty though :/ Oh well, I still have my rappy fans.

Also, Diska life is a beautiful thing! You mustn't simplify it that way ;P Life is about the experiences you have and how much you love the time you have here!

199 to 200 is 4.8mil exp, which is around 1 to 1-198. :V

Also lol. PSO BB > All console versions of PSO. Fact.

The more you look at life, the more you realize that the only thing binding you to slaving away at a job you hate is your obligation to do so. Find the passion of life that lets your vision transcend the mundane. Do work that matters to you. Build something with your bare hands. Start a garden and grow some vegetables. Raise some animals. Cook. Find that deep connection to life that modern man loses sight among the 9-5 dreariness. And when within your dirt encrusted hands you cup a flower nestled in soil, and in that moment you will see the beauty and fragility of life. And when you are finally lowered into the ground, your mark will be left upon the world. That you, Diska, created with your passion. You can choose to make an impact like those passionate men of invention who change the way mankind thinks and lives every day of their lives, or you can be a quiet man who had a special connection to his work that no one could can claim. Either way you will leave behind your pride and find peace everlasting.
