Hey Rutsky, try looking at the sprint animation without your eyes bleeding. That's the number one reason I refuse to play CoD Quad (either one, yes, MW2 is known as "CoD Quad the Second" to me). I don't think my shoulders swing that high.

I crafted my only Bonk! and my only Kritzkrieg to get Crit-a-Cola. Mmmmm, crits.

I also crafted my first reclaimed metal, using all my scrap metal, then found out about the Sandman + scrap metal thing. Bah. So I crafted my only two Razorbacks for some quick scrap metal.

Luckily, I don't miss those as much. And now I have a Pain Train! I had no idea what is was until I crafted it, but it was craftable and so I crafted it.

One left. I managed to craft five scrap metal with spare pairs of weapons. I'm seriously considering crafting away my only Dalokoh's bar with a spare Natascha.

One more drop for Heavy or Scout and I get my Medic hat. Two more for any other class. YES!

EDIT: Okay that was awesome. Just messing around with bots. I attacked a Demobot from behind with the FaN. I dealt juuuuust too little damage. The knockback, however, knocked him into his own pipe.

Crafted a pain train from a soldier token, a melee slot token and scrap metal and finally got lucky instead of getting another equalizer.

And then I find out about the update ninja'd me.

I think he's talking about the crafting update which "ninja'd" his crafting a Pain Train.

An actual ninja update would be cool. The spy should have a ninja hat to correspond with the soldier's samurai hat.

You know, however anal I am about only crafting away spares, I completely agree with crafting away your only Targe to get the Gunboats. After all, repeatedly blowing your own feet off is awesome.

And Kippy: And the Pyro should get a Robot hat, and the Heavy should get a Pirate hat.

Yeah, thing is that I actually use soldier to jump, while for demo I never use the targe. Also, sniper + razorback = lol. However I do have a spare from drops.

I got three pairs three days in a row.

Since I got them, I have only used Rocket Launcher/Gunboats/Shovel as my loadout, unless I have a really good reason to do otherwise. I still want melee Gunboats though.

I'll probably switch between the boats and shotgun when I feel like it. Also, I didn't have a spare razorback or targe, but meh. I did have a spare highlander and equalizer...Now I have a chocolate hammer.

You are almost, but not quite, as bad as a certain person who tends to play Sniper or Soldier and sometimes Medic and whose name begins with "Em" and ends in "lyn".

EDIT: I might craft my Equaliser away for a Homewrecker. I don't want that piece of junk anyway.

Doubly EDIT: Oh, and it's not just because the Razorback is awesome either. It's 'cause you can be certain to craft the Gunboats with two item drops, but you have to rely on another random drop to get another Razorback.

Eh, I never used it and it *will* drop again eventually. I think it's my third most common drop behind the bluts and KGBs. Seriously, I had over 7 of those each at one point before crafting.

While Leopard is technically required to upgrade to Snow Leopard, it's also possible to do so from Tiger. So it'll only cost € / $ 29 total. Absolutely worth it, if you're on any Intel Mac of course. Even without 64 bit compliancy, there's a buttload of features you'll want (though software relying on Tiger might be harder to replace, but then it's old and decrepit in my eyes).

In other news, I regret that I won't be able to attend the L4D2 inebriation party, and maybe even the 6v9 competition that was planned due to an unforeseen family-related issue. I'll be traveling to my parents tonight and hopefully I can be back by Saturday, but it's hard to say. I'll inform this on the GitP / ChHa Steam community group as well.

I crafted a random hat last Saturday. I also used up my last spare Sandman to do it, when I desperately want a Pain Train.

Stupid poetic justice.
