Actually, I wasn't boasting at all. I was simply pointing out that what you did was nothing special. I did this by saying that my score wasn't anything special either.

If I wanted to play for 8 hours I could. You don't think I could hold the concentration to use the shotgun in Stalingrad for that time?

It's not hard to keep concentration when you don't have to think. Stalingrad is designed for shotgun and it's easy to own, teamplay or ffa.

By the way, like I pointed out in my post, just 'cos I had two times as many targets don't mean it was easier for me to get a higher score.

Think about it. I don't have all 19 targets in my screen at once. If I did, I'd die pretty bloody fast. I hardly use grenades in Stalingrad, thanks.

You don't have as many trying to kill you, so you stay alive longer (check my death rate out, 33 in 20 minutes is a lot higher ratio than 300 in 8 hours).

Teamplay works like this: You spawn near team mates at all times, so you have to keep on the move to find the enemy. Stalingrad is such a small map that it's easy to work out where the enemy is and once you do find them they are all bunched together. With the shotgun you can rape them one after another with ease.

In teamplay you also don't have to worry about covering your back, as you always spawn near teammates.

In FFA you can spawn right in front of a bazooka.

Oh, and anyway... So I had two times as many targets as you. So divide my final score by two. It's still higher than yours. I coulda carried on doing that all night, but I decided I could better spend it doing something else (besides the server is set to 20 minutes time limit, and I've managed to get over 100 per game for at least 5 games in a row. Concentration, my arse).

I wasn't trying to compare, I was simply showing you that your score wasn't anything special. I wouldn't have bothered at all if you hadn't have shown that it meant so much to you.

I'm sure you're very happy with your 9 hour stint, you seem proud. That's why I posted. I wasn't going to bother 'cos at first I just thought you were having a laugh and showing off a little. Nothing wrong with that (I posted a score I was proud of on this board myself once).

But you obviously think this is some kind of acheivement and actually think you're hot 'cos of it.

It's the 1337 ]-[4><0|2$ bullshit that got me to post in the first place.

I've played a game for 19 hours straight before. I ain't about to boast about it, though. It's pretty sad, really. But that's addiction for you.

Being proud of addiction, though? Thinking it makes you better? Odd.
