My Morning Session with a Shot Gun

This morning some friends and I went for a friendly round of clay pigeon shooting. We were all having fun competing against each other. Everything was going well, no one had shot himself in the foot and we all managed to hit quite a few clay pigeons.

Suddenly out of nowhere we saw planes coming over the horizon. After a while we heard very bad German accents coming from all around us. It was dead undead Nazi German Zombies !?!?!?!

The fight went well. We did take a few casualties but we managed to push the zombies back where we then got the QUAD DAMAGE power up with a rocket launcher and finished them off.

The battle was going so well there was time to take photos as we pushed back the beach head of the zombies.

What a day…

Everyone should try this sport at least once in their life. Next chance I have I will go again :)

The Web’s latest Incarnation

Chat roulette is a new website started in November 2009 and since its launch has gained a lot of popularity. The website allows two random strangers to have webcam-based conversations. Visitors to the website randomly begin an online chat (video and text) with another visitor. At any point, either user may leave the current chat by initiating another random connection.

This website is the brain child of a 17 year old high school Moscow student. The site receives about 500,000 visitors per day and there are about 35,000 people on Chat roulette at any given time. There has to be some normal people in that 35,000.

OK GO tops their previous video

One of my favorite music videos of all time is OK Go Here It Goes Again. Its creative, original and fun. A secret a fantasy of mine was to recreate this music video. Came close to doing it at university but the stupid treadmills didn’t have a reverse gear so I couldn’t try treadmill ski.

OK Go have released This Too Shall Pass. Not only is it a good song but the video is legendary :)

Check it out below.

Geocaching in Malta

Recently I discovered Geocaching from watching the gadget show. Geocaching is a worldwide game of hiding and seeking treasure. A geocacher can place a geocache in the world, pinpoint its location using GPS technology and then share the geocache’s existence and location online. Anyone with a GPS unit can then try to locate the geocache.

Geocaching for some reason not apparent to me stuck in my head. In the episode a presenter used his iPhone to locate some geocaches which the show’s produce hide for him in a forest. The caches were personal transportation devices (bike and skateboard). In the show this presenter was trying to evade some trained military forces who were hunting him.

Today I found a couple of geocaches in Malta (there are some in Gozo and even Comino). Unfortunately some people are complaining that some of the caches were stolen but some remain active. Some have even been found recently (7 days ago). Some geocaches involve hikes with incredible views and others even have climbing and some even have walking into dark caves.

I shall try convincing some of my friends to do this walk. I am not sure if it will be difficult to convince them to do this or really simple. Hopefully it would be the later because it sounds like a fun way to spend the afternoon. If you are who I would ask leave your response here. We shall see how many read my site :P

Once done I shall post photos and results from the city dwellers gone treasure hunters.

Malcolm Vs Sleep

When the weekend comes around I take a breath of relief because in my mind I believe that it’s going to be a time where I can recharge. In reality I can’t remember the last weekend where I relaxed. It has come to the point that I am addicted to energy drinks and caffeine to continue pushing upwards and onwards.

When you have a busy weekend one where you know you don’t have time for rest or you need to concentrate an energy drink or coffee could be exactly what you need. One important thing to take note once drinking energy boosting liquids. It’s very important to keep hydrated or else you will suffer from a headache like one I have right now.

If you are getting owned at a LAN just crack open a can and wait for your ownage to increase ten fold…

For anyone planning on making a LAN between their closest gaming buddies here is a short list of games I suggest you should play. All the games below are now considered old but I like to see them as retro (plus they work well on the laptops we have):

  • Call of Duty 1 / 2
  • Unreal Tournament 2004 (if you manage to make it work)
  • Age of Empires 2
  • Commands and Conquer Generals (Zero Hour didn’t seem to work well)

That is the list of games we played over the weekend. We were only 5 players. Maybe next time we would be more so that some games will be better but I still really enjoyed it. All the games above allowed us to really enjoy playing. In teams and versus each other. In particularly enjoyed playing call of duty 2 in headquarters mode.

In that mode you are divided into two teams where you have to capture a point on the map and hold it. If you capture the point and you die you have to wait for the enemy to destroy the headquarters. The enemy would have a spawn time and they keep attacking until they manage to destroy it.

That is it for today I am having an energy crisis…
