Even some of the serious players were overrated....since the ranked system goes by total score....number of kills etc. So while I may be ranked like 15,000th in Ranked Matches on COD3..........I've already beaten the #4, 3, and 2 ranked players in that game. Only one I haven't played is AceCoolBullet....who is ranked #1.

lol. I absolutely LOVE doing that to some of the noobs. I'll dance around switching from prone to standing up and jumping left and right. And I'll watch them empty their entire MP44 clip before I put one BAR bullet into them and melee them into next week. Snipers are the easiest ones to jack around with. I'll also pretend I don't see someone and run around a corner only to pop right back out and shoot them right between the eyes as they give chase or right as they're cooking off a grenade.

COD3 is just fun times...........tag teamin with people on a jeep or motorcycle. Sneaking up on the noobs and mantling them while they are thinking they're invincible in their little tanks. Sniping a sniper with a scopeless KAR98 from halfway across the map. You know....**** like that that makes it so much more fun.

I enjoy the older game style of COD3 more than MW2 just because it happens to be my individual preference. I don't like f**king around with fancy thermal scopes or heartbeat sensor attachments, or calling in AC130s and Pavelows. I like to do the killing myself....with my own open sights and without that god aweful guy coming over the speaker and telling you "Enemy Care Package Incoming"......"Enemy UAV Spotted"......over and over and over. It gets really annoying to me.

But other than that MW2 is still somewhat entertaining to me.....it's a whole new gamestyle I'm still trying to get used to although I don't have the absurd amount of game time that half of the freaks that play it for 18 hours straight do. I'll stick to it a while longer and see how it turns out.

^He sucks. I made him quit a few matches out of frustration.

I haven't been on in a while, but he definitely wasn't the most talented player, even though he was #1.

**** weather people here suck. Just a week ago KSAT12 news was making a huge deal about San Antonio getting snow. Something like a 70% chance. That morning they had their little snow patrol out and everything.

Nothing. Not a single flurry.

It's a shame. Last time it snowed here the entire city practically shut down and turned into one giant bumper-car slaughter-fest. All the businesses closed or got out early. And there were accidents everywhere you looked.

It was great!

I'm not exactly east coast....but I'm outside in shorts and a short sleeve shirt in low 40 degree weather. Mid 30s i'll slap on a light zip-up hoodie. Anything in the 20s is when I actually start wearing jeans.

Coldest weather I've ever been in is 14 degrees in Chicago. I'm sure it's not that cold compared to where some of you live, but it was actually pretty f**king cold to me coming from South Central Texas. I stepped outside in my night clothes just to see how long i could take it.....7 seconds later i was back inside and under the blankets. **** is cold.

Seems like temperature drops feel exponentially colder on your body. A drop from 40 degrees to 30 here in town feels much more noticeable than a drop from 50 to 40.

I have and am back up to level 48 again. It's sad I know, but I've had a lot of free time in the past few weeks.

A cool shot I took playing Froza 3 tonight:

Good progress. I wish I had more time to play, but so far it's been a real distraction from the studies. I just unlocked bling today. Any one know when bling pro get's unlocked?

Cold is when your car's engine temp drops, while sitting at red lights, even after it has been fully warmed up.

Cold is when you start your car up, and drive around for a good 25 minutes before the heat comes on.

Cold is when you can no longer feel your nose/hands/feet, etc.

Cold is when a hot shower is not relaxing, but actually hurts.

Cold is when you can feel cold blood flowin through your veins.


But its very humbling. Makes you enjoy a nice warm bed and cup of joe that much more. The worst I have felt is probably about -22deg F, and highest probably 102deg F. The way it works out up here, New Years Eve is the coldest night of the year.

^ yes, but have you ever heard of a "wind chill"? pretty much how it feels to have wind blowing at your noggin. That, plus the cold = usually a negative temp. First time I ever heard of it me and my buddy were standing out side, in about 7 degree out side temp. (Forcast: 7 deg, with a wind chill of a -30deg)The wind kicked up, and I thought I froze my eye ***** open. "Yep! thats the wind chill!!" says my buddy. Its 0 deg right now if you all were wondering...

Try going from 75 in Fesno, Cali, jump on a plane, land in MN 4 hrs later, 60 degrees colder..not cool....I was in slippers and shorts and a T-shirt.
