SOW - Last Week of August
I know I have already talked about Counter-Strike Source, but I thought I could use this opportunity to rant about my internet service. For the last month and a half, I have hardly been able to play any online games for longer than about 10 minutes at a time. Every few minutes my internet connection cuts out and I have to sit through about 25 seconds of nothingness. This seems to happen more often when I am on a particularly good ownage spree in CSS. Once it comes back, several things can happen: I can get disconnected completely from the current server, transported to a buggy version of the map with everyone's names replaced with "unconnected", or from then on not be able to see the player models of anyone else on the server (all I can see are the weapons they are carrying, floating through the air). In all these cases, I am forced to reconnect to the server which wipes my KD numbers clean. Apparently, there is something interfering with the signal on the same frequency my internet uses (900mhz). At the moment no one is sure exactly what it is, so it will probably be quite a while before I can freely use the web.
