What´s wrong in the head on cheaters?!

Sometimes it´s real fun gaming, sometimes it´s less of that. Yesterday evening was one of those less moments.

Dead hot in the room, tropical night it was and I was playing Lips with two of my kids. Trying to sleep was not an option, not in that heat. Anyway...

I had a challenge to do, so... I did my very, very best but "only" got the fourth highest score in that particular song. Ok, fair enough, you can´t do better than your best, right? 4:th place and the ones on place no 1,2 and 3 had way, way, way higher score. The one on no 1 about 700 000 more. Hm... Something is odd if the score between the top 5 is more than 700 000 points. Well, maybe it was the woman who did the recording herself that sang the song, I don´t know.

The second challenge... After I finished the song I checked the highscore-list... Eh... wait a minute... Same type of song, same 3 ones in top. Checked another song with slow high long vocal notes... Same result. And another one... Yepp! Checked some other songs that was more uptempo and had short vocalnotes. Nope.

So... I got one of those guys on my friendlist and checked his friendlist. Yes, they are all friends with each other. Crystal clear!

The game has definitly lost on my ranking after yesterday. And I got explained to me how to cheat ,when it comes to impossible "Beat it" Guitar Hero World Tour. The same way you can cheat in Lips I think.

I don´t really understand the thrill in cheating. Why do you wanna be on a highscore-list if it´s not your own "handmade" result that shows? I just don´t get it. Do they have that low selfasteam? Is it instead of the p-enlargerthing elder men gets, also called sportscar? Haven´t they been pottytrained enough when they were babys?

When I saw peoples result on the webb in Colin McRae 5 and they would have to used a timemachine to get through the lane in that short time, I was so disapointed. You could count off about 20 people at least from each lane there.

There´s something WAY wrong with people who cheats and now I´m off to erase someone from my friendlist.

The machine from Hell

Because of my daughters grand loop on her kickboard, the towntrip when I was supposed to buy a new game wasn´t on the menu. So what to do if you´re bored as hell and the games you´ve allready got doesn´t appeal to you? Well, you can always buy new songs for your favouritegame, aka Lips. And I did.

So you that´s on my friendlist, now I´ve also got "In The Shadows" by The Rasmus (great, reat band and naaa, it´s not because we´re from  the same country), "Life Is A Rollercoaster" by Ronan Keating (but that one I´m sure I won´t winn in, I get way distracted by him, can´t understand why) and the real corny "Take me home country roads" by John Denver. Bought them late last night and poor, poor neighbours. They were forced to listen to The Rasmus and me until 00.05. =)

This morning I went to a shop here in my little village and bought the machine straight from Hell. Yeah, it really is! It´s an epilator, never owned one before, never tried. OMG!!! It really really really REALLY hurts! I can´t really expalin the burning feeling when all the hair on your legs just gets ripped out. But I went through with it and now my legs are soft as a babys butt. =) Good!

Now it´s time for some more torture of the neighbours ears. Muahahaha!!!

You can´t imagine what it feels like when a woman got a cold

This is bad! This is really really really bad!!

This morning I woke up with a fever, a soar throat, head stuffed with unrefined cotton wool and a nose that feels like it´s been cleaned on the inside with Klorin = no mucosae what so ever. In other words, I got a bad, bad cold. Poor me!!

I crawled out of bed, managed to throw a delayed Birthday-party for my daughter with some of our relatives, I even participated in some outdoor-games. Should never had done that, I feel like I´ve been runed through a stonecrusher.

So I´ve been in horisontal mode on the sofa for an hour now and been whining about how I feel. Then it strucked me! OMG!! Have I become a man?! Whining, felling poor over myself, looking for someone to feel sorry for me and for someone to do a little nursering... that´s what men do, not women. We´re the ones nursering.

But one good thing has come out of this world disaster, I did score better than ever in Lips. Good!

Now I´m gonna compose an advertisement for a male nurse/doctor/chef that can take care of me. I don´t have the strenght to put on some make up, to eat chocolate, to watch TV... I don´t even have the strenght to game anymore. Poor me! Poor poor me!!

In Sweden we got this TV-advertise about medicine for people how catch the cold. It´s a man in his never-been-washed-undershirt, with his head over a bucket of boiling water and he whines about: "You women talks about giving birth, you should now how it feels when a man has the cold". I´ve been mocking that man for some time now... Never again!! Now I totally understand what he talks about. Giving birth... Piece of cake!!!

Kid for sale

Sometimes I just don´t understand my eldest son. Quite often when I think about it actually. Anyway...

I went to the fantastic hairdresser Malin earlier today to let her cut my hair. The first time in 1.3 year, so it was about time. 50 minutes later I was really pleased with the result, Malin was also pleased, just as my two youngest and my Dad.

A couple of hours later my eldest son saw the new hairdo on a picture on FB. His first comment was (and this I just can´t translate to English): "Mamma har hockeyfrilla". Well, thanks!! =(

And then he told me it looked like the haircut that was supposed to be on a 17 year old, not his Mam and that he thought I should go and buy me some curlers, you know, those pink things old ladies got in their grey hair to be pretty when they go out and buy their Friday dinner steak.

I don´t know, is it really so bad and missplaced? Maybe I should buy me a hat instead or just shave the whole shit off?




Poor kid, maybe I shouldn´t go outside the house at all when I think about it. For a couple of years ago, he proposed that I should buy a tie blouse and corrugated shirt instead of jeans and top. I just wonder, what is it with sons and their Mams? Do they never cut their umbilical cord?!

I think he needs a girlfriend, really really bad. At least I know that I need him to have one!

Halo 3-tournament and Lips

I just can´t figure out how the people that gets the songs for Lips is thinking. Vanilla Ice?! Hello! I wait, week after week, for something good to come. Yeah, right! I´m beginning to realize that´s never ever gonna be. I can only hope that Lips 2 will be way better when it comes to downloads.

I´m gonna give you a hint for a tournament on the Swedish Xboxlife. Next weekend there´ll be one in Halo 3 and everyone is welcome to take part. Go to  www.xboxlife.com/se for more information and to sign up, send a PM to CptBonex. Good luck!

How is it in your familys?

Sunday and I got one of those rare mornings, when I can sleep as long as I want to. Well, nearly anyway. My daughter, who´s going to a Birthday party for one of her friends at 1 p.m, came in to my room at 8 and wondered if it wasn´t time for me to go to the store and buy a gift. Aaaah, I don´t think so! Not at that unholy time, anyway.

Looks like it´s gonna be a perfect day, if you just think of the weather aspect. Allready quite warm and the sun shows it self from it´s best side. This is my last day of the spring semester and it feels SO good, even though I got a shitload of studying left to do today. I probably will have to sit until midnight, when it´s do-time, but I don´t care. It´s the last day! Tomorrow my first year at the university is over and I made it. Wohooo!!

Some of my friends, who are about the same age as I am, thinks that we´re an odd family because we´re all gamers. Me, the eldest son, the youngest son and my daughter. Only the crazy cat that doesn´t fit in, but he´s so odd in his own way, that it doesn´t matter.

Is that so rear? A family where everyone are using a console a couple of times a week? I din´t think it was. We play together, by ourselves, we have our own favorite games, we enjoy to compete with each other and so on. So my question is, how is it in your familys?

In about a month from now, I´m gonna find out if I got accepted to the teachereducation at the University of Uppsala. Exciting!! I really, really, really do hope so!

Just to be on the safe side, when it comes to "not have to study any longer at the school and education I go to right now", I´ve applied to some different schools. In no.1-6 it´s different teacher educations in Uppsala, then there are 2 classes where you become a therapist, no.9 and 10 are classes when you get a diploma as a social worker, then it´s a webmaster education, no.12 is a education where you become a geography teacher and the last ones are two courses in the education I`m in right now. The shortest education is 2 years and the longest, no.1-6 and the social worker-education, are 5 1/2 years. Puh!!

Well, off to the biologybooks for the last time hopefully! =) Have a nice Sunday!!

The decision is taken. Well, about what game to buy, that is. I´m gonna wait for Guitar Hero Smash hits/Greatest Hits. I think it´s gonna be worth it! :-)
