new items in the shop! T-shirts, prints and other stuff :)
The second part of "Top ten things that make me nervous when playing", numbers 5 to 1. They need explaining this time, so..
5.) "playing against rei" He might not be the strongest player in the world, but he certainly is the person I am most afraid to play. Don't we all have someone like that?
4.) "playing while being under alien attack" Now seriously, doesn't it totally throw you off too? I do realise this is totally random, that serves a purpose. If it is an alien attack or a green balloon floating by or a stray puppy looking at you while you play - I guess everyone has an unreasonable thing that makes him or her totally nervous out of any apparent reason. Let this stand for all of them if you want :)
3.) "playing while people are watching" Most people will share this with me I assume. No matter what strength people have, I am pretty sure if a dozen or more people stare at you while you desperately try to come up with a move that wins you the fight and the game, everyone gets at least a bit nervous...
2.) "playing while people I know are watching" This is even a step worse than nr. 3, especially when those people are your teachers, your lovers, or people you'd like to become your teachers and/or lovers :D
aand.. here it comes...
1.) "playing against somebody I have a mad crush on" Well. So.. I think I'm not the only one putting this as the worst nervous-making occasion.. The guy I drew, he's a video-game character I happen to be totally in love with now (I know he's not real. So what? :D ) - the game is called half-life and the guy is Gordon Freeman. For those who not know these, google is your friend :D
Finally, I'd like to thank the emptytriangle.com room on KGS for helping me with various stuff (especially UTDEspy for providing a lambda sign. If you don't like it go complain to her :P) and apologize to Dr. Freeman for how terribly I drew him ^^"
