While playing counterstrike tonight, I got invited to be a fifth for a scrim. I accepted, and though I was outclassed by the rest of my team, I held my own, going 8-8 and 5-5 and figuratively carrying my own weight. I like to think that my willingness to sacrifice myself helped out some too. The guys I was playing with were actually really good – after the first team we were scrimming copped out after losing four straight, we played it easy on the next team until they were hooked, virtually deadlocking the first round 7-8. Next, we were CTs, and turned up the heat a little bit (well, my teammates did at any rate), and won the next 8. It was a lot of fun, and they’d have me back in a similar situation in the future. It was a good challenge too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
