I still battle with learning Outwitters and removing regret from my play. They have a ladder system so as you get better you play better people. Maximizes frustration with the game and my lack of development. Sal is encouraging though – optimistic that I can climb the ladder to the top.  He’s only seven – too early to let him get disappointed with my abilities.

Went on a team paintball session last week.  Was fun. But was left with some regret.  They had a game called Terminator – one guy is the Terminator and everyone else is the resistance. Humans (the resistance) are killed once and out of the game.  The Terminator goes on until he opts to self destruct.

Our ref scared me out of the game because he said he would only consider it of he was wearing a hoodie.  I was in a short sleeve jumpsuit.  He compromised and introduced us to Zombies, where 3 guys are zombies, only killed by head shots and the humans once hit, become zombies too.  I have a smart team and the humans in this game realized that a headshot would be difficult. They decided to just maximize pain and shoot up the zombies as much as possible. If the head was hit, cool, but it wasn’t an objective for them.

This became clear to me when I saw guns shoved around a corner blindly shooting at me.  And my torso getting lit up with paint.  Good strategy and one that makes me think that life as a Terminator would be painful. But, it would have given me the chance to shoot each of the guys on my team.

Legitimately at least.

Cause I did shoot them all, just some of it was friendly fire…
