Battle for Middle Earth (last weekend)

Feb 15, 2005 13:12

So now I'm playing BFME with Ant, Justin, Dave, and Brando. Justin and Dave've become what Chad and Danny were in the past - I seem to see them a lot more than my own room. These guys're hardcore gamers, too. C&D don't play as much as they do! Plus it's a house of geek - you bring your computer over, and if you forget something they're bound to have it (even a network card).

Friday - I actually can't remember what I did because the weekend was so busy. I do know I spent the night.

Oh yeah, I watched The Blob with Just. Kinda impressive effects back then. There was one gross part that made me squeaked (the bf that got eaten and the gf pulled his arm off).

Saturday - Ant came over and stayed with us for a while, bringing his laptop over.
We ate at CPK, where Ant left us and we went to Brando's friend's photo gallery of rust. That's so not my gig. It was kinda cool, but I wanted to leave after 10 mins. And leave we did, and that's when the party started. Dave and I stocked up on alcohol while Just and Brando set up the gaming table to make it like lab. I chose the silver tequila also by Jose Cuervo. I saw the Petron behind locked glass.......for $40!!! um, nah thanks. I'd rather buy Soju, same effect for much cheaper. Turns out that silver tequila, not as smooth as Petron, was much smoother than gold. It's my new drink!

My best BFME play: BFME uses the same engine as Generals, I hear. When expanding to build new bases/farms, players have to be careful of neutral goblin/war/troll caves - take out the monster + the cave, then it's safe to build your building. So it was me, Dave, and Brando vs Just and Ant. There's a bug (and I didn't know it at that time) where you take out the cave first and the troll becomes a free roamer (instead of being leashed to the cave). So Dave's Legolas took out the cave as I dragged my horse south to run 'em over Ant's foot soldiers. I first ran to the troll to beat on him, then realized Dave's Legolas and said "oh! you're fine, you don't need my help", then proceeded south. The troll followed me, but my horse was faster than him. That troll is my pet, I named him Hughbert. He wanted to play, but I was too busy. I ran over and thru Ant's troops, and that's when Hughbert switched his attention to Ant's orcs. BAM BAM! He kills a battalion or 2 or 3 before Ant pulls the rest back to retreat, into his base. Hughbert helped the battle. He will be sorely missed.

So we drank some, Brando drank none and took some of his caffeine powder. We played BFME until real late and Ant left us. After the 6th drink, I was kinda lit, and tried on Brando's belt (that he left on the table) going "HEY! Like my new belt??" Then taking it off and snapping it like a dominatrix.

I remembered to drink a lot of water like a good girl. I am yin yang! At a party where the people are excited and hyper, I get tired. At a party where they're just normal, I get hyper. And at a party where people are serious and not fun, I get quiet. Anyways, I was having a lot of fun. I decided to be productive and reset 2 of Dave's electronic appliances' clocks (which've been ALL off).

I drank with Dave, poor guy. I was saying, "oh! are you those type of people that get hangovers in the morning? I'm sorry, I don't!" When I get drunk, I first get really tired, then I get so I can't sleep. I don't think I slept until 4 or 5am. Dave placed a large silver bowl next to my air mattress in case I puked, aww. haha.

Sunday - I'm groggy but ok, but not Dave, who says I outdrank him. Nooo, I got drunk really bad, I just recuperate a lot better. We took it easy today, more BFME I think. Brando was subjected to Shaolin Soccer, which he didn't take well. Haven't had fun weekends like that in a while.
