No ADHD OCD Magpie tonight, I actually had a couple of things all in my brain at the same time….
The Omnipotent FAL
Since Geoff’s videos on the FAL (here and here) it seems that everyone on YouTube seems to be using them in Modern Warfare 2. You’ve got Wings of Redemption (with his modded controller controversy for added zest), TheEnd004500, and there were at least two others in recent days all running around with FAL – maybe more (I really should pay attention). I don’t know if it is just coincidence or not, but it seems like the secret is out…..
And related to the FAL. Has anyone tried it with the Acog scope? I mentioned it in an earlier post, and I’ve stopped crying now. It could just be me being rubbish, but I was having real trouble getting any kills with the Acog. Either my aim was really off – which is a very real possibility – or the Acog does the opposite of the holographic sight……
Mario SwearKart Wii
Mario Kart Wii is supposed to be kids/family game. Not when I play it! Red shell, blue shell, red shell, red shell, sparkly shrinky star thing….LEAVE ME ALONE! The only thing more frustrating than leading for two and three quarter laps out of three only to get tactically nuked from orbit is Baby Mario. That little cheating git! I don’t get how when the computer runs him he’s the fastest toughest little mofo on the track, but if I run it then he’s the slowest weakest runt out there.
So far I’ve unlocked the other tracks and one extra car. I don’t know how a kid is supposed to be do it though. I’m on the brink of nervous breakdown playing it. Stupid Koopa!
Ebay
So I was fifty squids away from the Hauppage target…I say was, could be still am. Bills before stuff and all that. But anyway, I put three games on Ebay to go towards the total. I’m not expecting them to sell for very much but if they do sell they should make up the better part of thirty quid. For information the titles are World at War, Race Driver Grid and Star Wars The Force Unleashed.
In the meantime, I’ll keep doing the lottery….
Lamb-o-Rama
And when I win the lottery I’m going to open up a lamb burger joint. Yup, that’s fairly random. But I’ve been making these lamb burgers with a load of herbs and feta cheese. They’re awesome. So watch out for a Lamb-o-Rama opening near you 🙂
Peas and loaves.

I just can’t convince myself to like the FAL. I was low on ammo on Invasion last night and picked it up from someone I shot but I went back to my UMP without firing a shot.
I got killed a few seconds later anyway so my low ammo situation didn’t matter anyway!
When in the lead in Mario Kart on the Wii hold a power up behind your kart. I can’t remember which key it is but when you get hit by a shell the power up will take the impact. The 3 bananas power up is dead handy for this!
If possible, slow down when you hear that bomb that takes out the first player. It will either kill the guy who passes you or take out you and the guy behind. I’ve never managed to pull this off though.
Makes Mario Kart a lot more playable and strategic 🙂
Another YouTuber rocking the FAL – F1sTDaCuFFs ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gW_PMa-PTYA )
It’s going to be the new Scar-H, I can feel it in my water.
As for Mario Kart – those tactics don’t seem to be as effective in MKWii as they were in Double Dash. And when you’ve got a MEGA lead I’d rather try and run the Blue Shell out rather than allow the pack to catch up first.
I’ll just have to grit my teeth, utter some ‘words of encouragement’ under my breath and get on with.
Stupid game that it is 😀
