the best of PUGs, the worst of PUGs...


Recommended Posts

So, joined Oklahoman on a two run through Magi where the league was textbook.  Every badge except Really Hard Way and made it look like a cakewalk.

 

Immediately after there was an ad for a TV2 respec.  I needed the badge.  It went okay, not great.  Until... we got to the reactor room.  I have rarely seen this thing fail.  I cannot remember the last time.  I felt like I was fighting the whole room solo (a Blaster) with occasional glimpses of people i think were my teammates being chased by hordes of Freakshow blowing past.  An unmitigated disaster, and the reactor inevitably fell...

I laughed for hours last night.  I'm still laughing.  I'm sorry, man, but that line just put the most vivid image in my head, of you and a Freak tank stopping in the middle of the fight, staring in confusion as the rest of the Freakshow horde chase your team around in circles while Yakety Sax plays over the P.A. system.  And then you and the Freak tank look at one another, both of you shaking your heads in embarrassment.


"Um... ain't dey supposed to be chasin' my crew around?" queried 8R34K3R?

"Yeah.  They're..." Snarky stops, trying to figure out how to say it nicely, then exhales in a gust of resignation.  "They're kinda stupid."

"Hey, don't worry 'bout it.  Some of my boys ain't da brightest bulbs on da marquee.  Look, why don't we go get lunch while dey figure out what dey're doing?"
"Okay.  Yeah, that'd be okay."  Snarky glances back at the reactor, then shrugs.  "Can we go someplace dark?  Maybe that restaurant on Robertson, the one that serves kaszanka?"

"Oh, I heard 'bout dat place.  I been wantin' to check it out, but mosta my guys won't eat nothin' if it don't come from Kap'n Kraken or City of Gyros.  Ya think dey got a booth big enough for me?"  8R34K3R flashes a surprisingly friendly smile, his eyes widening with anticipation.

"They do, actually.  And their menu is pretty good, lots of choices.  They've been doing a multi-cultural fusion thing for the last couple of years, interesting stuff."
"Hey, fusion, I like da sounda dat."

You both wander out the door, chatting and grinning, while the chaos behind you continues, the reactor's warning hoots steadily growing louder, but still not loud enough to drown out the music.

I can.  Because I saw it only ONCE.  Back in the early days of live, with a team full of thoroughly gimped characters who NEEDED the respec.
