<div class="IPBDescription">We have nstr2 !</div>Last night I was enjoying an intense game of nstr2.  High, Cyan, E, rby, and Locke joined me.

We played games like "Dodge the turrent", "slurp the marine," and "burn the alien."  The map was KFS's eclipse and me and highlander set up some turrents in the hallway outside of the marine spawn for some good ole dodge the turrent fun.  After we were done with that, we did one last rush -- four of us slurped our way up this small hallway with two turrents unleashing a world of pain on us.  Me and E died right away, however cyan and locke made it up to the top.  After that, it was time to play slurp the marine.

How do you play slurp the marine you ask?  Simple!  A marine binds the command "kill" to a key.  When he gets slurped upclose alot (I usually let myself take about 3 slurps) he hits the key and then the 'aliens killed him.'  (The first time I did this I was bulidng a turrent and all the aliens came to slurp me, I killed myself and E and High said "OMFG A SLURP CAN KILL!! or "OMFG HE KILLED SENTRY WITH A SLURP!!"  It was very funny.)  Me and highlander then worked our way into the hive, high gave me a boost up to the railing but then got slurped one too many times and died.  I however, avenged his death in an intense game of burn the alien!

SentrySteve, all alone in an emeny hive -- three aliens closing in on him.  Run? I dont think so.  Cry?  Who do I look like, greedo?  SentrySteve pulled out his welder and BURN THEM ALL!  We then continued to do this untill I saw one of the most amazing bugs.. possibly ever..

IT WAS THE PLACEHOLDER FOR BOB HOLDING A WELDER!!!!!!!!!!

I will give you a moment to recover from shock...

Ok -- He was the most scray thing ever.  The mean, pinkish look in his eyes.  To his right he had the welder.  This sent me running and crying (ok, so I <b>am</b> greedo, *sigh*) down the tunnel only to get slurped to death.  Then I got an assertion error and decided that it was time to go.

With us having this much fun in the nstr, I dont really think that NS can compete with nstr. <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    Real nice of you not to hold still long enough for me to take a good screenshot <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->
    We had a great time. It was highly educational, as we learned that having 30 Sentry guns firing at once and 5 marines using welders will crash a server.

    That was an amazing round.
    Arch0n1us and I are planning out a series of (poorly made, rushed) maps DESIGNED for DDTing. Hopefully they'll work out well. Watch this space for updates ^_^

    I'm glad you guys are having fun but...I feel guilty that you're "playing" the NSTR and not NS.  Not so guilty that I'm going to release NS earlier but... :)

    It was good with seven players but over about 5 the server starts to lag  <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->

    It's a nice way to run around the maps and hide and seek is the best  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    DDT, the next installment of the Flaytona championship :D /me rofl

    When NS is released, we will have the "NSTR Olympics" :p Flaytona racing, DDT, and Leap-Bob (upside down leap-frog, played on the ceiling. Can you climb under and around the Bob in front of you? :))! The winner gets to play NS! The losers get to play NS, too! (remember this is happening the day NS is released :p) Everyone else gets to play NS!

    Sounds like it was great fun, SentrySteve :) I wish I had been there.
