Lazy Saturday

May. 29th, 2005 at 2:37 AM

Slept in, had breakfast, skipped the LYC pot luck and spent the day playing CoH - and a productive day it was! Played with Kevin and Daniel (well at least until Daniel got all cranky), levelled Green Starburst to 24, got $1.3M in influence in a contest and by generous high-level heroes, 3 new badges in Independence Port, and right before I logged off Lusca (the giant octopus) spawned and about 30 of us beat his tentacles down, had some sushi, and earned the Devilfish badge. :)

Tomorrow it's gaming with

jsciv and I'm taking Kevin along for the ride. He'll be here around noon, so it's off to bed with me. :D

Current Mood: satisfied

I believe you said that if I didn't like how you heal then I don't have to play with you. I took your advice. 2 deaths in 5 minutes was plenty.

Yup - if you think I'm such a bad healer, then don't team with Green Starburst. However, death is part of the game, we were up against some pretty tough foes, and no healer can keep you alive in perpetuity, so if you expect me to be the perfect healer, then perhaps your expectations are set way too high. Plus, you're the only person to ever complain about how I play - most people I meet say I'm the best healer they've ever played with.

Whether you're a suckbag healer, or beloved by all who team with you, the bottom line... 2 deaths in 5 minutes was enough for me.

Exaggerate much? First of all, it was more like 45 minutes, and second of all, you were a level 11 sidekick facing level 25 foes, and as soon as your mentor died you were back to being level 11. No one lives long once their mentor dies in a case like that.

And yes, you blamed me, and I didn't appreciate it.

We were into the game about 45 minutes maybe before I went down, then within the 5 min. timeframe I went down again. No exaggeration. I felt you were too busy playing dual roles of blaster/healer, rather than just healer, and it cost me twice so I got out. Nothing more.

Ah, so we're back to it being my fault.

You know, I recognize you had a crappy weekend, but I don't appreciate taking it out on me.

*sigh* It was a team that didn't work, so I got out. You've done that before with other teams when they don't work out. Whether it's a hasty scrapper, an AOE happy blaster, a worthless healer...whatever... A team that doesn't work out is frustrating to play in. I didn't want to die anymore. You're just sore cuz you pride yourself on being such a faboo healer, and someone doesn't feel the same. Big deal, as Tri would say, "it's just a fuckin game".

Furthermore I don't recall taking anything out on anyone. Yeah I had a crappy weekend, but I sure as hell didn't make it anyone elses problem but my own. I can't help but wonder if all this stems from a bruised ego with your toon. So someone doesn't think you're the bombdiggity healer on CoH...so...what?!

But you didn't say "this mission is kicking my ass, I think I'm better off cutting out," you said "you suck as a healer, it's your fault I died, so I'm gone." Can't imagine why I'd take that personally or why I'd interpret that as you taking your bad mood out on me. If you didn't intend to be insulting, I'm afraid I interpreted it that you were, and that's the first time I've ever felt that way gaming with you, which is probably why it irked me so much when you said it.

I suppose I should have been tactful then, but when a teammember's fucking up on any team...I call it, and if I don't then someone else usually does. You may not see it as fucking up, but I did, and so I left. I'm saying the same thing over and over again here, and all this over a computer game, so I'll conclude this by just saying, if what I said hurt you then I apologize.

Hey, what is your global name on CoH? I've just gotten back into the game...
