  1. JackDaniels624 Memories of a GGN of L4D...

    Player Chronicle -- Posted on Apr 22 2009

    Twas another long day of attempting my best to fall asleep to prepare myself for a night of zombie killin'. Especially with such perfection of Chaos in Motion in my DVD player...The temptations to hear Constant Motion, Panic Attack, Jordan Rudess' amazing (and that's quite an understatement) keyboard solo, The Dark Eternal Night, and of course Forsaken simply were too great and I just couldn't sleep until I heard'em all! By this time the hours were approaching 1, and quite possibly 2 by the time I actually fell asleep, and I was planning on waking up at 5:30. I thought to myself that there was no way this was going to happen, but fortunately my phone sucks! After getting a voice mail on my phone, it continuously would ring letting me know that I got one my phone would start to call itself, thus annoying me beyond extent and I caved and woke up at around 4:43...Just to shut it up. It was my friend calling, so I decided to let him come over and bam I'm still awake at 10:36 with only a couple hours of sleep!

    Of course I had to pick up a couple of packs from CVS only to find that there wasn't anyone at the cash register at the time, so I decided to go get a Monster Energy drink and when I turned around 4 other people were lined up and the cashier was back. So I bided my time in line to fulfill my urge for what I consider "Understanding Stix" and to replace a lighter. Anyway this does eventually lead to the night, it's just backstory I feel like writing for myself for some reason...Anyway I got back home excited to finally have a Monster in my hand since I'd been craving one for a few days, then had a dream where I had one and that seemed to satisfy the urge strangely, but still I didn't let my dreams win, I wanted the real thing.

    It was only around 6 so I decided that while I waited for 7 I'd order a pizza, and even though my brother and friend both digested some of the nutrients, I paid for the whole thing because I had a Monster! Then I finished eating at around 6:44 and chilled upstairs until 6:55 to go downstairs and met up with Dynafire to kill some zombies, and be killed of course.

    And the moment arrived where I got to have my energy drink I waited for so long to taste once again, and man did it lead for an exciting night, despite Ryu focusing on making a game and excersizing his creative mind instead of helping us survive a zombie apocolypse (get your priorities straightened out man!).

    I learned that Bill has a magic cigarette that isn't lit, but is at the same time, and the zombies want it! That's why Bill seems to be the cause of most peoples problems (quite frankly that's always been Louis for me). Also you can't jump through that window, you can melee hit it, but it'll bring you down to 41 health, but it's still worth it. Most importantly Dynafire is not a very good team player. He was shooting some zombies while standing by a gasoline tank. Of course I had to shoot it, he was right there! And because of Dynafire's unwillingness to be a team player, it caused 3 of us to die. Good going DF!

    Maybe if we stuck together and planned things out, we could have done much better, but at what cost? I'll tell you at what cost! A whole night of laughter and supremely hyped excitement that's what! I look forward to continuing these almost pathetic attempts at surviving (we did make it to 30 seconds once!) and maybe possibly actually getting a silver instead of a bronze medal some day!

    Aye, 'twas some good times last night. I like how you made me out to be the bad guy too. While it's mostly true, it's hard to help when you're on the ground getting your nipples torn off. Wink

    These Left 4 Dead GGNs sound great. We'll keep it on the calendar for May!

    Hey, sorry I couldn't join. I would've... but we have to demo the game in 38 hours and 26 minutes.

    I need more caffeine...
