So. Watched Meet the Medic earlier with my sister. What thee Fuck. I am left speechless right now. Awesome. That's the only way I can describe it, and it doesn't do it justice.
AND OMFG It is soo much better when you don't have to watch it distorted through the PS3. Just watched it. Again. I love the Medic. I loved him from the beginning, but now I love him even more. Best character in TF2 ever.
"That was the sound of Progress"
Well, since I can't hink much more to say about Met the Medic(Argh I wish I could that Video was SO EPIC!), I think I have a way to get around the whole Boycotting TF2.
It was a pretty stupid idea. boycott TF2 when I've invested so much time into it already. So, I thought to my self, 'Whats the best way to boycott TF2, without having to not play it?' The answer? Boycott the Mann co store, the very life blood of TF2 now, and go Free to Play.
Yep Free to Play.
I've already made an Free to Play account. I've downloaded Team Fortress already. Now I just need to link my F2P account, username Wuollet24, with TF2 and Send Friend requests to my GabbyBob and Lil' Chew Chew account. True that I will not get some items with it, but with my two main accounts that are both premium(bah) I can trade.
Medic was my muse. Thank you. I would still be boycotting the game itself had I not watched it with my sis.
Fucking love the medic. Love him to death.

All is well.
Well, it turns out that I'm fine. Yay. It was just that I hadn't eaten anything that day. Got myself a glucose meter. Check my blood before I eat breakfast and a couple hours after dinner.
Well, its coming up on a week since I've played TF2. Its driving me nuts because I want to play, but I don't want to give in to that flawed system they have. I mean seriously, its not right. I know its only a minor problem, but that's no excuse. Hats that give a game play bonus that isn't available for the new guys? Come on.
I've kinda thought of a solution but it will probably be shot down because of the, 'Omg thats no fair! We paid for it!' bullshit. Didn't even watch Kritzkast this past Sunday because I realized how jaded(not the hosts mind you) the people in the chat were.
Here they are, telling me that if the free to play players wanted to get that bonus, then they should buy the hat, and get a premium account. Yet when I said I was willing to pay for an update for the Xbox Valve had neglected to update, I was called a fool.
Which reminds me. I should play Console TF2, sometime. I had a blast the last time considering that the people didn't know what they were doing.

MEDIC! COME ON DOC!
Well, I've think I figured out why I had reacted the way I did the other day.
Since I was a kid, I had what some doctors called, 'pre-diabetes'. Its where I was at risk of getting diabetes but it could still be prevented. Since I had started working, I haven't been eating regularly because of my 4 to midnight hours and having to wake up at 8 am the next day to drive my little brother to school and working 8 to 4 on weekends.
I think it's gotten worse.
I remember what had happened so well, its not even funny. I was in the greatest mood, waiting for Meet the Medic to release, then WHAM! TF2 was announced Free to Play and I crashed. Hard. I was so depressed before work, I layed in bed for 3 hours before realizing that time wasn't passing fast enough and played some Fear 3. Which I then talked to a friend and found that my neice tried talking to me through the T.V. Right now, I'm tired, but in the greatest mood after drinking 2 bottles of Rootbeer, and now I'm ready to kill some mercs. 1st bottle I drank in 30 minutes. 2nd I drank over the course of 5 hours.
Well, its friday, so I have to wait til monday to call in for an appointment. Its either diabetes, or my hormones are out of wack again. Both outcomes I'm not too much of a fan of.

Welcome to Tf2: The MMO
Great Valve. Just fucking great. And if you can't tell, that's called fucking sarcasm. Free to Play Team Fortress 2? Really? What in gods name were you all thinking? Why do you not listen to the few that HATE THAT IDEA!? Oh, that's right because the Mann Co store is what's raking in the profits.
Well, Good bye what little hope I had that maybe they'd re-release TF2 on the console. Why would they? It's free on the PC version now. God this pisses me off so much. And I was actually excited for Meet the Medic and they ruined it.
God I am raging so much right now it hurts. And I don't know why I am raging about it. Is it because I had to pay for it and all I get is some lousy in-game item? Is it because I feel betrayed about the Console versions? Is it because they decided to listen to the money-grabbing little gremlins in their wallets rather then the people who actually play this game?
I'm not sure. I thought I had myself figured out, but apparently I still have some learning to do.

A kick in the Pants and a Boot to the leg
Well, Its rather been awhile. Not much has happened but what has happened is a lot of rain. Rain and coldness because the people here at work think that to fix mugginess, they need AC on. So, I'm cold.
I hadn't mentioned this before, but Kritzkast has released a hat in TF2. Probably the best thing that could ever happen to those guys. Even has the KK logo on it. Its called the Lo-fi Long Wave.
Also since the last post, my brain has been on somewhat of a writers block. My imagination is still on over drive, but when I start writing it down, It just doesn't seem to work out and I scrap it. Much like this blog post. Well I guess this will be a rambling post on what ever crosses my mind at the time.
I turned on the stove for the first time in about 3-4 months. Still a bit squeamish around fire, and to think I used to like striking matches and watching them burn. Just thinking about a lit match gives me the shivers.
Oh man, I am so tired. Stayed up late last night playing TF2. Not really sure why, I was going to play TF2 Beta and try out the new update it got. Ah yes, it was to see the birds, they got an update and I wanted to see what they do.
Which reminds me, TF2 has a copy cat. Like a literal 'Dead Ringer' to it called: Final Combat. Its a Chinese Rip-off. They use the same weapon models, ripped the announcer's voice straight from the game and they have maps from EA's Battlefield Heros(not TF2, but its there). It makes me laugh because Thunder(the company selling the game) is said that TF2 was a rip-off of Final Combat. TF2 was released in 2007(2006?). Final Combat isn't even released yet. People are saying it gets released in July.
Final Combat Homepage
Here are the silhouette comparisons:
ABOVE: Final Combat
BELOW: Team Fortress 2
And they didn't even try to hid the fact that they ripped the Soldiers Rocket Launcher:
ABOVE: Rocket's Rocket Launcher
BELOW: Soldier's Rocket Launcher
Even thought it is a direct copy, I hope nothing happens to it until it get released. It looks like something I'd want to try before it gets lost for all eternity. Hopefully someone is quick with their fingers and can get a torrent of it. (You did not read that.)
Welp, there was one other thing I wanted to say, but the Chinese Bootleg squashed it out of my brain.

Home Brewed Inspiration
Well, I've been having a wonderful week. Probably started before the week had started actually. My brother started T-ball. Its a little confusing because they've had 1 practice and 3games so far. And another this upcoming Monday. Weird. Well, at least he's having fun.
Which reminds me, that last game I ate a mosquito they flew in swarms so large. And I was walking from the bleachers to the concession stand, which was no farther then 100 ft.
Kritzkast ep 119, The Missing Musical. That happened this last Sunday. Probably the best episode thus far. Second would be the Kritzmas Episode they had last year. Both were epic. I have all the songs on my IPhone and listen to them all the time. At least until I get tired of them.
Full Episode: Episode 119 The Missing Musical MP3
They even have the single tracks out. Which is how I have it on my IPhone.
I haven't really worked on my picture yet. Kinda sad, but I did finish my rough draft piece of crap script for the (personal opinion) Best game on the PC. Too bad It'll never see the light of day again. Well, it will because the notebook I use it in still has plenty of pages for another. Which I already have brainstorming. Jeez, I like it, but at the same time I dislike it when all my ideas barrel through my brain.
I have that script idea simmering in there, another one I was inspired by a dream (its kinda sad that I don't really remember what the dream was about) and several others inspired by KK and CritzGiggles awhile ago. THAT ones been simmering for awhile.
The CritzGiggles inspiration is from one of their videos that a lone Huntsman Sniper from TF2 is guarding a CP from an oncoming Heavy and Medic Uber. The player says, 'I will not lose' or something to that effect. It made it awesome because he defended the point from the uber duo, for a successful defend until his teammates respawned. It was very inspiring, but I haven't figured out how I want to use it yet.
EDIT: It was 'I refuse to Lose.'
Vid: CG: Refuse to Lose
I've had quite a few video inspirations but I haven't been able to figure out to make them come to life yet. Its actually kinda bothersome because in order for me to do so, I need other players to use the Replay feature in TF2, or an entirely different software. Like AutoDesk, but that costs almost $5000. I'm willing to purchase Premier to edit my footage, but to make it with Autodesk is a bit much.
But still, even with those last few 'flaws' I'm still in a great mood. Because ideas are flowing, instead of being stuck like a rock. Home Brewed inspiration. Hey, that's a good title. See? It's been a good week.
