Fun Fact

Jun 23, 2006 17:28

In DW5XL (at least, in Destiny mode), Zhuge Liang is actually criminally incompetent. In sharp contrast to every other officer I've served under (Sima Yi, actually, was especially good at saving my ass), if you're getting gang-raped by a thousand enemy officers, he won't pull them off you, even if he's standing like two feet away; I died once and almost died twice because of this. In one battle, we were supposed to be defending this one guy, Sun Qian; Liang was off masturbating, nowhere near him, and Qian almost died - the only reason he didn't is because I made myself his meatshield. Any wonder I defected to Cao Cao the moment I had the chance?
The moral of the story: always serve under Sima Yi. He'll protect you, he'll teach you how to set things on fire after your second battle, and, truth be known, he loves you: he'll set you up beautifully not just to survive, but to flourish, and then when you can take on the world and pen cheerful marching tunes in its blood, he'll send you off on his devious (and fun) little errands. Besides, you can always let someone else hire you away later.

Movie soundtrack for your life. The rules:

1. Put your music player of choice on shuffle
2. Scene one = first song played, scene two = second, etc.
3. No cheating/skipping
4. Pass it on

So my life goes from political to emo to entirely too intense, to delusional and political, then on to being its own in-joke. I guess that'll do.
