Kubra Dam - Lateish, 10/30

[Diceman]

So, I was COing the MEC on Kubra Dam, and generally having a pleasant time. The squads were good at getting were they needed to be and completing assignments which were not always the most exciting assignments imaginable.

At one point, I got killed by Gunrack because I was hiding in the same crevice that his squad was about to assault the intake from. No problem, I just respawn further south by the jet hangars and go back to my CO screen.

A few minutes later, I hear a jeep engine for a few seconds and then am team-killed, by a guy named Ghost28 or something. Ok, I'm a little perplexed at how that could be an accidental TK, seeing as we were so far from combat, but it's not the first time I've been accidentally team-killed in an obscure spot by an over-zealous UCB defender.

I respawn, and position myself between the two hangars, where jeeps can't go, and go back to commanding. About 5 minutes later, this guy Ghost kills me again. This time it was a pistol I think.

I asked my SLs to check if they had Ghost in their squad and control him. Shortly thereafter, a new squad formed (Squad 3). So then 3 starts making wierd sounds on the radio. I ask him if maybe he's got the wrong channel activated. He replies with "Wrong Channel! Ah hahahaha." This guy must've been trying to break my concentration because he starts howling all sorts of clever things like "You suck!", "NERD!" and ol' reliable "You're a loser!".

It was almost a zen-like experience as I simply muted the channel for squad 3. What really makes me laugh is how hard this guy was trying to ruin the game and, for me at least, it was barely registering. Not even as much as a fly buzzing. But it must've taken a heck of a lot of effort on his part.

He initiated a mutiny after that, in which him and two smacktard friends voted for, and nobody else. I think shortly thereafter, one of the players contacted an admin and had him removed from the game.

As an aside, did I mention I love you guys?

Anyways, there's not much of a point to my post...I just wanted to tell you all a story since I'm staying a little late at work, waiting for a tape drive to be ready to do things.

Best servers ever.

Dice.

Should of just reported or initiated a kick ban on Ghost if he was giving you problems. Thats too obnoxious behavior for TG servers, I think. That's just my opinion.

[Diceman]

Yeah; I forgot to mention that the reason why I didn't was because he wasn't really bothering me, plus I wasn't logged into teamspeak, and I wasn't even sure where the admins were at that given moment.

USMC definately gave me a run for my money on that map, and I didn't want the solution to become larger than the problem. It all worked out in the end though.

[Gunrack]

That was my one highlight moment of the round, Dice, i.e. finding you in that little crevice. I actually came across you by accident, even though our squad was in the area. I accidentally fell down the ridge while trying to head for the flag, and lo and behold, landed near you. I even stood there for a few seconds thinking of all the ways I could kill you, but stuck with the mp5. It looked like you had a shotty, and the way the round was going, it would be my luck to shoot at you, only to have you turn around and blast me.

And since you were giving our squad so many pretty presents the whole round (arty), I felt justified in giving you my early Xmas present. oh, btw, you're welcome (although I know I'll being getting worse from you in the future). Good games.

Heh heh...sneaky, threatening enemy squad = arty magnet. It's how you can tell that you're doing a good job. I always take it as a complement when my position gets arty'd.

Threatening squad, yes. Doing a good job (on my part), no. You arty'd our squad so much that I started praying to the bf2 gods to have some mercy on us. And on top of your arty, add in bomber jets, helo rockets, tank shells, apc rounds, fav bullets, grenade launchers, snipers, c4, and yes, even pistols, and you get the picture. In the end, I would have to say the bf2 gods were not kind to us, as they would not give our squad members the coveted magic vests of arty protection. I still had fun, tho (see highlight above). Good games.
