Ever have those days . . .

[__Anarchy__]

Do you ever have those day where it seems that whatever game you play you just fail at or it seems that the game is against you in every way?

For example i was playin SC2 today online and just every tactic i used the opposition seemed to have the perfect counter or that they were using the strategys that i despise most of all. This also used to happen alot in MW2 before i gave that up (mostly) due to insane frustration and high blood presure.

All the time. In every game.
Seriously, I'd think I was crap at games if it weren't for the days when I'd be inexplicably brilliant as well.

But like I've said before, I never have an off day playing F-zero Gx.
I will destroy you at that game.

Yeah - today I was absolutely sucking with the sniper on TF2. Partially because I've not played it in ages. Sometimes I also have really bad days in L4D or BC2. It happens. I put it down for a while and go do something else til I stop sucking.

 

[Infinatex]

Yeha happens when I don't play for a while. I'm going on a 9 day cruise in a few weeks and I know I'll be shocking when I get back lol

I was playing GT5P today, just casually racing against the CPU on Eiger Nordwand, loving the hell out of my G25 and being able to kick the clutch in and do the hairpins with the Scandinavian Flick, and I was doing great, but when I did a race on High Speed Ring it was like I was a student driver. It was horrifying, and I kept playing and playing because I didn't want to admit that somehow I started to suck. And then I got worse. Eventually I just said "fuck it" and stopped playing.

I challenge you, good sir! Big Blue-Ordeal at 10 paces, you bring your racer and I'll bring my Fire Stingray.

Anyways, back on topic, I have a lot of on/off days when playing Street Fighter 4, playing Vega is fun for me, but when people start getting close to me..I just can't get them off...get away x-x -claws at them-

You're on! I'll bring my Phoenix.
Oh yes, did I mention I unlocked all the Ax racers?
Mwa ha ha ha ha!

So have I, hotshot! >=D
Would you prefer me to bring my Lily Flyer and her Bunny Flash instead?

/end one-uping

Indeed, this macho flexing is silly, the important thing is we're both better than everyone else at life forever.

And isn't that what really matters?

 

[voetballeeuw]

Yeah, I've been playing Monday Night Combat recently and I've had 3 heart attacks.

 

[ShakesZX]

a better question might be, have you ever not had one of those days...?

 

[Andantil]

Sometimes. Once I got really unlucky and STALKER somehow spawned 4 controllers and a freaking horde of zombies in the cabins outside freedom base.

 

[Lullabye]

Eh, not really.
Maybe a few times on gears of war. But then, the good days I had easily outweighed the bad, in both quantity and quality(ever have a match where you got 20 no scope headshots with a sniper?)

*nods solemnly*
We must not let the small things cloud that which really matters.
Which in this case is my superiority to everyone else.

 

[AvsJoe]

Show me a person who doesn't have those days and I'll show you a liar.

 

[SimuLord]

When my kingdom in Crusader Kings gets a big honkin' dose of Realm Duress, I feel this way. Or whenever some RNG ass-pull kills a bunch of my units.

Yeah. I can usually get away with blaming my mouse though because, between my macbook's trackpad or my ancient ball mouse back from 2000 and mousepad being whatever big book I have at the time, my mouse is usually to blame for all sorts of shit.

But then I just play some fun single player games on my Gamecube or PS3 and it's all better

 

[Shoqiyqa]

Spoiler: I'll show you both!

I'll show you both!

 

[Amnestic]

Some days, generally on TF2 or when I'm playing DotA. I'll suffer through a few games, decide that I'm just not in the zone and try again tomorrow to see if my groove is back.
