I want YOU to go forth in the next couple of days with your DU handle
and post some online screen shot(s) of ownage in your favorite game.

I will come back here--after the buzz from the beer wears off--after I own some
n00bs at UT (original--not that extra-crispy 2k3/2k4 shit) to post my own and check
on your progress.

Remember: with your DU handle. I don't give a damn if you're Fatal1ty--DU names only!

FPS's are preferred.

1. Not my DU handle, but I think you'll like it anyway :)


Yep, that's my character ... here's another glamour shot:

2. Me getting pwned ... or, business as usual
:(



Later, I made a pretty decent comeback. :) Keep in mind that SunLit attracts a lot of veteran players, so I never feel bad no matter where I finish.

6. That's Day of Defeat: Source.
It's a mod of Half-Life 2. IMO, the original mod was much better... but that's a whole 'nother story.

3. Well, I had mixed success
I got to owning some casual players and the pros would come in and defeat my purpose.

Hard to own when you are not the best out there, but just a pretty good country player.

Then when I would get to laying a smackdown the next map everybody would bail out on me
because, let's face it, no one likes to get crushed.

In the screeen shot below I joined mid-game and went to work. Obviously I ran out of time
before 'stew' got to 30.

Next map, at the end, I was all alone.
:nopity:

5. Okay--Far Cry: (it's only one kill, but I wanted to get a pic in)
Edited on Sat Jan-28-06 05:11 PM by Mayberry Machiavelli

On edit, I don't know how to get the big pictures on photobucket so you can read the text!

7. pwned!
The game is BZFlag, a free, multiplatform, multiplayer riff on the old BattleZone arcade game. I've no interest in more modern twitch games; this is as close as I get. I game as Orsino, and occasionally I pwnz3r! I'm not fast enough with the PrtScr key, so this is what you get: the remnants of a green team tank that dared to face me tonight.

9. More Far Cry Ownage:
Disclosure: I am a low ping bastard, but still only barely manage 50:50 kill/death.

But I'm out of practice... I just played a quick session to get these pics. I prefer single player, and coop when it exists like Rainbow Six.

12. I took the HUD display off,
so you'll just have to trust me



pre-searing Ascalon in the catacombs at the Temple of Grenth with a lowbie toon (level 3 Necromancer) so it takes a bit of ownage to get there.

16. Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger, somtimes you're the ball
Edited on Sun Feb-05-06 08:13 AM by NewHampshireDem
I carried my team on this one ...


Remember, in DoD it's all about the flags, not the frags :)





Though sometimes it's nice to have a positive k:d ratio, too




I have a bunch of screens from this particular map, which is based on the boardgame Risk, but here are the best two:





And, finally, this is what getting pwned looks like ... and I make no excuses :(

Here's my start:


And my finish:

18. DoD has always been my favorite mod
Much better action than CS, with no waiting around while the last two guys creep past each other. I've been playing it since one of the early beta releases for the original HL. It's definately worth the $20, especially since there are some great custom maps and custom map servers out there.

19. I would love to play DoD w/ you some time.
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 02:52 AM by Hatalles
I usually play with the name "Catalyst" and frequent servers with 20-24 players... usually its in the evening/night on the Third Reich server which is on the West Coast. I use this spray all the time:



Fits in wonderfully with the setting. :D

BTW, what is that Risk map called? Looks fun. dod_risk?

22. I suck at most games
although I'm pretty decent at Diablo. I wonder if my Sorcerer and Amazon are still valid accounts?

23. Okay...BF 1942, Coral Sea map
all kills in plane (I don't bail out; it's a flight map, I don't see any point to it).

Three rounds in first place, and I carried my team this round (over half the kills).

26. I always wanted to get into the BF games...
... it was just that the infantry combat wasn't to my liking and I was never able to get a handle for flying in any of the BF games... :(
