You Fail At Talking With Non Gamers If...

Fail Day! Yes here we are in the middle of summer with a Fail Day upon us. What happens in the summer? Well we see people we don't always see because work schedules or more relaxed for everyone. With that and myself being a gamer I am around my fair share of non gamers. So I run into a like problem throwing out the gamer talk. So here is a fail day for me and all the other gamers out there for when we get that look.

You Fail At Talking With Non Gamers If...

• You keep saying they Ninja'd your Beer
• You are complaining to others about girlfriend aggro
• When you fold in poker you say GG
• You are wondering why someone is so confused by the card that says "You must construct additional Pylons" card in Cards Against Humanity
• You make a technical alpha joke
• You pretend to die while touching water and no one laughs
• People think you are a mime when you are pretending there is an invisible wall
• You complement someones APM while watching them text
• You make a joke about how light someone's skin is
• While instructing someone how to load something on netflix you refer to the buttons as R1 and L1
• You told someone you pwnd them

and finally

• You have nothing non gamer related interesting to say

There you have it this week's edition of Fail. Hope you all enjoyed it and hopefully your conversations are a little less awkward.

Sunday! Yes here we are with are weekend's coming to an end. Seems like it just started didn't it? Sunday besides being the end of the weekend though is a time when I get to answer some questions sent throughout the week. So without making you wait any longer here we go.

Is it just me or do you find yourself playing a lot of older games during the summer?

I always end up playing a bunch of older games during the summer. Normally replay a few Final Fantasy games or some other rpgs just to pass the time. Not because there isn't anything good that is new coming out, but just because it is a more relaxed environment playing something old if you have to run off and do something in the summer. When you are playing something new you hate being interrupted and that is a hard thing to have in the summer 

Why do people insist on picking low tier Heroes in Hero League?

I think people pick who they like. Problem is some heroes are suited for a very team dependent and they end up being bad picks. The bigger problem I have is when people pick heroes for rolls they shouldn't. grabbing a 2nd or 3rd support when it isn't needed, double specialists, 2 or 3 warriors. This is just asking the game to be a horrible experience not just for your team because I don't know about all of you but I hate being on the winning end of a one sided game. Just feels like a waste of time.

Do you still hate pallys?

That is like asking if I still breathe

There they are the answers to the questions for the week. Hope you all got something out of it. Enjoy the weather and the rest of your weekend

You Fail At Summer Gaming If...

Fail Day! Now this time of year although not Summer everyone is the summer gaming season. Now maybe you had no idea that gaming during the summer is much different. Then I actually question what you are actually up to. So that really should lead right into this.

You Fail At Summer Gaming If...

• Your thoughts on Summer gaming is moving your TV outside
• You have never realized there is no big name game released during the summer months
• You don't know why people go crazy for the steam sale
• You are not playing games you have ignored in your collection the rest of the year
• You haven not realized why it is called achievement season
• You thought this post was about playing a game about the summer Olympics
• You have nothing to play
• You are just realizing how much heat a computer can generate
• You are wondering why you are the only one not playing less
• You are not taking advantage of all the E-Sports events
• You don't find yourself playing old school games
• You find yourself mindless looking at your collection coming up with reasons why you cant play any of them

and finally

• You had no idea there was a difference because you spend all your time playing the same MMO

There you have it this week's edition of Fail. As always hoped you enjoyed it, and maybe go outside and enjoy the weather a little bit.
