Stroking your own ego

[Danceofmasks]

I see a new one every two or three days and it makes me feel that the users on the Escapist have run out of ideas. Prove me wrong guys! Make an entertaining original thread!

In response to that, I'm going to post a thread about self love .. and showing it to the world.


Erm, I mean, err, cool gameplay videos you made.


I got Audiosurf yesterday, and I really liked it .. so I uploaded this:
Ironmode Ninja Mono, with Megadeth - A Tout Le Monde

Ah, Audiosurf. Don't have videos, myself, but allow me to recommend this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PF2nm8IT-3Q&feature=related] for all your absurd difficulty needs.

Who, me? Sadistic?

I'm...sorry. I don't have any videos. I just came here to point out that I DO try to make my new threads fairly original, some more effective than others.

That looks awesome, although I really don't like the banking camera command.
Not my kind of song, though ... so I'm unlikely to play it more than a couple of times.
(read: won't be getting stealth on Ironmode, since I'm not pro enough at the game to do it in 2 tries)

Yeah, ironmode stealth isn't exactly fun to try for. I like a crash and burn approach, myself. Try a song that's way out of my reach, and if it all goes horribly wrong, that's part of the fun. By the way, what IS your sort of song?


As for the originality thing, well, it doesn't work. And having any content in the OP just makes it worse. People can't be bothered with reading that sort of thing, typically, and... well, most of the good threads around here (and mine, including the one from yesterday, not that I'm suggesting those are good) die out before they get a single post. And then the next thing-you-killed thread gets to seventy billion pages. Bit annoying, really.

I actually like all sorts of music, but as for particular songs, I seem to have a preference for songs that have sections.
(due to being a classically trained violinist)
First movement, second movement, etc. ... so stuff that starts slow, has crazy sections, changes in mood and tempo.

This reminds me, where did all of the "last thing you killed" threads come from, and how long have they been here? I'm just curious because my internet was only down for about a month and it seems like these things have become a plague.

OT: I don't have any videos, although I would like to mention that when I play CoD at a friend's house, they end up calling me a freak. I really don't know why. Sidenote: I've only just gotten into CoD.

They come and go. There's only been a really huge pile of them for... about a month, though. So yes, since when you left, more or less. They've been here for quite a bit longer than a month, just not in such large amounts, and not constantly.


Edit: I'll see if I can find something, Masks. For now, you may find Dancing Mad helpful.

Fairly easy, too.
