The thing is that you grow tired of doing the same things EVERY game. So now I don't play laddered games, even using GameSpy (please forgive me )and you know what?

I'm having fun.

That's right...fun. Sometimes we win...sometimes we don't. Sometimes I get to be the hero that plants the beacon, sometimes I get to be the schmuck that doesn't change his $1000 unit to an engineer and lets a building be destroyed.

Sometimes I just buy myself a sniper, grab some blankets and a thermos of coffee and spend the whole game picking off people and laughing out loud when I get them.
I swear and curse when someone snipes me, mostly because I feel so stupid that I didn't see them.

And apart from a lot of fun, it's also given me more of a sense of tolerance for other players. Because some of you may be doing exactly the same thing as me...having fun.

So, I appreciate your advice and agree that it is a good way to get points. I also agree with all the others who see you
as "greedy".

The best part of it all? Having as much fun out of the game, watching you silly peoples in an oh-so-serious discussion about a GAME,as I do by playing it.

Thank you all for your entertainment.
