I can be fairly mellow. I tend to get most pissed at my mistakes which is often when I start fucking swearing.
That second sentence is pretty much me.
The last couple of days I have been a mis-clicking mess in LoL. Yesterday it was compounded by trying out new champs for a bit before returning to Shen in an effort to be something more than dead weight. It got pretty frustrating having a teammate set up a great gank that would have been successful had I not stunned the fucking seige minion why the fuck does the game think I wanted to stun him and not the champion in front of him oh my god

That was the best thing about that guild, under that RL (it later turned sour), clearing trash was fun, talkin bout shit. Then bosses, or the occassional double pull came, and everyone went serious, and only the RL spoke, or the occasional warning from a few members.
I was kinda like an NCO in our guild, just kinda mediating between the other officers and the grunts. I was also always joking around in vent or /guild.
So yea, when I said "ok guys, let's focus," people knew shit had gotten out of hand and the calmed down.
I always modeled my officer style on former 4th grade teacher. I rarely cursed when I had that hat on, just made it abundantly clear what was wrong and that I expected it to be fixed. The times I did lose my temper were some what legendary.
Also, I think it's considered pretty okay to get mad at being steamrolled. It's considered a sign of good sportsmanship to sort of go easier and help people who are still learning things, and getting trashed without learning how to get better is pointless and not fun.

Yes, yes, I escaped the teamfight and stopped my team from being aced! There are two of them up, I can stop them from pushing once I heal and then... POOMF.
Like I toned down my response to games because I was getting too enraged. And I still get frustrated really easily.
I want someone to study game rage. It's fascinating. And it's so potent.
I was what was called a "grief player" back in Ultima Online (I used to get people killed, take their stuff, post the stories on a website). It was the reactions that made it entertaining, few people could understand that if they were better at the game, then I wouldn't be able to parade around wearing their clothes and selling their hard earned equipment.
I think I may have caused some people to quit the game.

Homogeneous distribution of your varieties of amuse-gueule
the only time I've ever really flipped out was in MNC when Than and Nerd abused the fuck out of a sniper friendly map and just camped and sniped for an entire fucking 20 minute match
I had a fucking meltdown
I was mortified at my behavior
but jesus twenty minutes of that shit after I'd started off irritable god damn

Yeah, this was happening a lot with Zilean and his time bombs.
I wouldn't know what the new champions are like, though, because you guys ditched me like a bunch of assholes last night.

I don't mind getting rolled when it's a swift death. When people pussy-foot around even though they swiftly put down any action taken by you or your team it starts to get annoying.

To be fair, all the maps in MNC are sniper friendly.
Sona's q targeting is so annoying. It has less range for champs then it does for minions, and sometimes the prioritization is wonky, so a lot of the time I'll think I'm in prime harrass range and end up hitting minions.

I always veto Steel Peel if it comes up.
Yup, even after I learned how to be an effective assassin on that map I still recognized that it needed to be skipped as often as possible.

Dragon Age wasn't nearly as amazing as I hoped. The core of it was pretty fun, but it really dragged in some parts (Dwarves, I'm looking at you!). It felt like they tried really hard to fit loads and loads of stuff in there, but didn't think about what really gave value.
Mass Effect 2, at roughly half the time, was pretty much the perfect game.
In the very first game of LoL I ever played, one of my teammates was making fun of another for the game they were playing before it...in which this dude bought 6 pairs of boots.
Also, Swain is free this weekend. Curses! And I was just starting to get good with him. Now everyone will like Swain.
I preferred the camp sections of the game to the ship in Mass Effect, though. The party members were uniformly more interesting, and if you didn't like 'em, you could tell 'em to fuck off.
To be fair, all the maps in MNC are sniper friendly.
Steel Peel and the one with the little oval dome in the middle are particularly great for snipers, though. The one with the small island in the middle is good about limiting the amount of the map a single sniper can cover.

On one of the levels a sniper can snipe the money ball from outside your base.

I will always have Warwick though
Well, Swain is getting some rather large buffs if I recall correctly. So if you were good with him before expect to do ever better now!

That reminds me of battlefield bad company, the first one
there was a map or two where the first round of gold rush was always the attackers shooting the hell out of the gold crate from far far away with rocket launchers
with the foggy weather it was really hard to do anything about it
I mean you could easily snipe them if they didn't move because you could see the launches
but it took like ages for people to even try doing that
although that tactic got harder later on as people learned they couldn't sit in their base on that map but had to get close

what are they shooting it for
I always modeled my officer style on former 4th grade teacher. I rarely cursed when I had that hat on, just made it abundantly clear what was wrong and that I expected it to be fixed. The times I did lose my temper were some what legendary.
At this point, though, something's better than nothing. I really need to get a jump on paying back my somewhat significant debt.
Well not like in the building, but there was a breaking news on cnn about a couple shot fired at the building in general. Which is laughable.

Freaking stealth rat.
Also, people who play Kayle and never heal.
Yes, yes, I escaped the teamfight and stopped my team from being aced! There are two of them up, I can stop them from pushing once I heal and then... POOMF.
You have been slain!
what were ya there for :P
and why did you not visit me I work right near there

Yes but that map has very little cover. I can live with being sniped. But moving away from the walls at all on that map is suicide.
this is not a photoshop
You are competent without being way higher level than me, so you don't pull up the level average when matchmaking.
Mostly, though, it's the accent. :P
I'm looking forward to it.

Man, it seems like I should really move out of the Southeast so I can impress people with my exotic accent.
And I hate it when people get competitive anyway.
jooooooiiinnnnn uuuusssssss
they're just particularly bad on Steel Peel
I think less of people who go sniper
