The news about the discovery of a new home spread like wild fire. And the very next day was the day when they all were going to see this new home *with a few exceptions, HitMan had seen this game zone before too…o! what a spoil sport*. One other big thing that was about to happen that day was the grand khappa by GecKo, so it was decided that after the gaming the gang will go out to get some food.

The troops reached the decided place on time *well not all on time a bit here and there =P*. After gathering around and making fun of some one or the other *that’s usually done outside before the onslaught*, the teams headed to their destination. The find was a rather successful one as all of the guys were very satisfied with the environment and the atmosphere. After an extra elongated survey of the location and discussion about teams the, two teams were made. GecKo was cast along side Hashmi. The game started, ppl started getting into their grooves, and then the most dreadful thing that cud happen, happened. Something that was far, far worse than the proclaimed emergency in the state or the heavy rainfall in the city, once again the tyrant recently-privatized-sector of the city that was responsible and holder of the most important asset of gaming, the electricity, mooned us =D *full marks to the person who guesses this first go!! =P*. Drenched in darkness and with sour moods the troops stepped out of their bunkers.

The not-so-unexpected-but-still-unexpected had happened, it was time for the elders *GhostRider and Khurram (hes no elder just a khalifa =P)* to make a decision. It was decided that even if the first phase of the plan was disastrous, the second phase should be worked upon. After the greatest of debates all decided to go for a burger at the Bovi Chick. The tym at the restaurant was a good one, it always is, its fun to sit together and then talk on various topics, from the current political situation to the colors of the “intimate clothing” *my personal favorite =D* worn by the objects of desire at the university.

After the peppy talk and heartful eating the troops receeded to the bases in hope tht war would be resumed and peace would be no more. The most-loling-time of their lives was approaching fast for two guys Hashmi and GecKo, both unaware of the forthcoming. On reaching the battle field the troops got the gud news that the electric power was resumed now there’d be no peace at all. Bombs, guns, melees, headshots and camping *some ppl will soon be getting PHD degrees in this particular act ;)* would be the topic all would be discussing. After getting seated the teams begun playing, Hashmi or Robomani, one of the pervs took GecKo’s place *He’ll despise them his whole lyf for doing that on JUST THAT PARTICULAR DAY*. The new seat didn’t suit GecKo very well. Things started of badly and went to the worst. Not one single time in his entire gaming life did GecKo felt tht much hapless and helpless. Nothing seemed to be working out. The one thing GecKo hates most is the job of standing on one place trying to defend it, whereas the other person attacking has all the liberty of moving. They *the others* still say "yaar tum nai yaqeenan koi hoshyari ki hogi (you must have had done something Mr.Smarty Pants)". GecKo is set to fire on those very comments. “How can one stand on one place and yet be safe from 5 flying flash bombs??”, then they *the others* say “tou tum bhi maro na!! (why don’t you throw flashes on them!!)”. GecKo just couldn’t get what they wanted from him. With just 2 kills under his belt in 6 games they expected him to buy flashes, bombs, guns, Kevlar and ilaichi *hehehehehe..kidding!*.

Well as is said that “all that glitters is not gold”. The same happened for GecKo that day. What seemed like a cozy new home wasn’t that cozy for him. And soon GecKo felt himself falling into the great abyss with no hope of nirvana anywhere in sight. With the unavailability of the presence of a player of the class of GecKo *who is always one of the first to be selected in a team if you want a good team 8)* the Hashmi Clan (HC) soon sunk into darkness. Hashmi sitting right next to GecKo became so exasperated that he blamed GecKo for the whole defeat. GecKo too had let go of the reigns of fate and had let his self be guided by fate instead. Just then when the HC was defeated in both the rounds of the de_dust2 match, Hashmi did what had been done scarcely in the history of multiplayer gaming. He started crying like a little baby claiming GecKo is cursed for the team. GecKo couldn’t utter a single word he was *and always is* too disappointed with his gaming and the feeling that he had let his team down, just makes him speechless. Humiliation greeted GecKo in the next team, Razi, the biggest fluke to walk the face of planet earth was sitting next to GecKo now, mocking him about the way he had been discarded from the clan (HC). The new place and new environment made GecKo feel a little better and soon he topped Razi and Khurram the two who were making the most racket *ignoring the fact that they started acting like fools and stopped listening to the captain -HitMan who was pissed off for sure – its their own issue!!*. but GecKo scored this time not much to become a savior but still did, but it all went unnoticed now, because of what had happened earlier.

The gaming came to an end. Alas! A tough day for GecKo =( *relax fans you all know that no one is nearly as good as how GecKo is at home…if only they (the others) could see that*. At the end of even such a hard day GecKo was crowned, not that he was a pathetic player or that he funded the treat nor that he played well in the second round…but it was for the fact that GecKo had made “the most strong nerved person when it came to playing CS”, Hashmi, cry for help =D. Bravo GecKo!! one more achievement. All agreed to this and said GecKo you are the greatest you have made Hashmi cry. But the fact is GecKo knows well that, that day was the worse in the CS life of GecKo and that he does not want to have another such day ever *though these kinds of days are scattered frequently about when they play at Scorpionz*.

¨ After a disastrous gaming experience how the ill-fated GecKo lost it all?

¨ What went wrong?

¨ Who was responsible?

¨ Who apologized and who was found guilty?


The most exciting episode to hit the curtains as yet!!!

GecKo in yet another dilemma, topic of conversations =D and the subject of many controversies.

A new HOME for us all !!

This is a third person view of the situation, and has been scripted in a narrative format. Once again, the whole situation is sketched as seen by the author of the story. If you disagree with the author on any thing, please feel free to comment and let the world know the truth. What follows is a brief description of the events that took place a few weeks before ramzan and a few days after the post-failure-picnic-CS-fiasco.


Linking back to the post on September 2, 2007.

Absolutely unexpectedly, GecKo’s petition was heard this time and more than one ppl for the first time ever agreed tht the location for gaming should be shifted to a new place. So a hunt-team was setup to look for the new home for the pack of CS fanatics. The team comprised of, the leader ofcourse the issuer of the petition, GecKo, GhostRider and Hashmi.

GecKo was extremely pleased with his effort and was excited about exploring new places apart from Scorpionzz. Ghost was just slightly interested whereas, Hashmi was more interested in getting his mobile sold out. But GecKo appreciated their positive attitude and enthusiasm with which they accepted GecKo’s proposal. The two game zones in the nearby locality were the ones at Neepa and one near kala-board (the fake one =P).

Luck was perhaps not with GecKo and the gang or it was with Ali bhai (Scorpionz owner), because when the trio reached the spot the area was sunk into darkness (no not that some evil lord had took over…it was the tyrant KESC that uses its absolute power on the electricity of Karachi to shut it down at the time we need it most). Anyways GecKo and Hashmi went together to the said place (NEEPA) and gave a MISSED-CALL to Ghost as planned. Then during the time that Ghost took to join us Hashmi went about trying to sell his ever-so-precious set. But as I said luck was not with them that day, and Hashmi couldn’t sell the mobile phone. Ghost joined them and after a little wait (for the electricity to resume – Hashmi still trying to get rid of the mobile) they all went into the Game Zone to inquire about the place.

The place looked ok and had two thin-long rooms in front of the entrance. The team realized that they were the match rooms in which the matches were played. The two rooms were located on the right hand side and on the left was the entire hall covered with snooker tables. Now I realize that if they had chosen that place as their new home the CS nights would surely had gone into trouble because few of the players in the squad have this habit of ruining others day by doing the OTHER thing (in this case playing snooker, you know those few…Abis I would love to name here…he would have definitely gone for the snooker and hitman wud have definitely followed..ooppss!! did I say too much? =D). But due to the unavailability of the most major asset required then, the electricity, this trip was useless. The team asked bout the rates, they were not VERY different but were a little here and there of wat the guys were paying now.

Sooooooo…after one failed trip to the place the search-team decided to hit the other place and give it a chance. The other place was again not very hard to find and after a little of-the-course driving the team was set on the right track (thanks to the guy-who-couldn’t-sell-his-mobile-that day). The ‘trio’ reached the place and were not very impressed by it, it looked ordinary and small. Anyways they asked their way in and when they stepped in, their jaws dropped to the floor in awe (that was the best and well-chilled GZ I had seen…besides Volcano on Gulberg). With the working ACs and the comfortable airplane styled seats the GZ gave a sleek look and looked comfortable and homely. Perhaps the team had found a new home atlast. GecKo in particular couldn’t keep his expressions at ease…he was too excited…he felt “now atlast…I can show the others how well I can play without the latency and unavailability of proper gear issues“ (he meant business then…with a wicked smile on his face…unaware of the fate to come over him in the next few days). The trio asked about the prices there and went on their way feeling happy and excited about their effort.

Scorpionzz diaries

- Please notice that what follows after this is not to hurt someone’s feeling or to comment on someone’s beliefs or to harm someone’s image this is just a brief summary of the whole situation from the point of view of the writer. So if you feel that you disagree with the writer somewhere on some cases then feel free to budge in and give the audience a fair chance of knowing the details.

“I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.”


Headlines

- GhostRider rocked the town with scores like 52-18

- Our head was a di*k – claims the loosing team

- Hashmi has a kaali zubaan (black tongue – used for people who say things and they turn out true)

- Dukaan walay chacha (shop-keeper uncle) to the rescue

- Change of location now essential


Details

This Saturday GecKo did not have much to show to his fans out there. Infact, when contacted with him, he was very (and we mean VERY) much disappointed with himself, he said “I played even worse then my little 3yr old cousin would play”, he further said “I am not going to further comment on my performance but I am going to say that I was never ready for this gaming, after a long and fu**ed up picnic I was not in for the gaming that day, I tried to convince the team captains that lets keep this on Sunday but no one agreed, and then it happened…*sigh!!!*”. Gecko looked very down to earth and vowed that he would not let the people who did this to him enjoy this for long. Gecko also said the excitement his friends and fellow gamers displayed was another reason he agreed to play, “they were all too excited I couldn’t just take it away from them like this…”. But Gecko sure was pleased about a few things atleast and those were, he did not got cut by the so-much-claiming-person who had always bragged about it and secondly the people at the GZ who had appreciated his gaming abilities before this were not present there to witness this over-pathetic performance from GecKo this Saturday. Although he told us that a little kid came over to him and asked him “app ko khailna ataa hai??” *Lolz*. So by seeing the determination on Gecko’s face we need to warn the people to be careful next week and don’t forget to buy the Kevlar as Gecko won be showing any mercy *only if the fu**ing bullet-proof-people don’t turn up!!*.

This week one-of the-most-persistent gamers on the Saturday night scene GhostRider displayed an enthralling performance, with awesome scores like 52-18 with the second to him standing on 26 kills. Though there were few or better say none who accepted this unacceptable feat by the big guy, but again no one claimed to have seen Shoaib Akhtar bowl the 100MPH delivery although he did that. The big guy was unstoppable and gave some remarkable shots at the gaming. When asked Jaws about his gaming, he said, “Ghost was killing like anything, the moment the person came out from behind the wall and Ghost shot and mostly it got the head… (hmm. This sounds interesting. AIMBOT??)”. This claim was given by Jaws after he joined the wining team downstairs as he had given up on playing upstairs saying man these people are bullet proof (gooliyaan hi nahi lagr raheen yaar). But whatever, GhostRider was on a very positive note that day and had a time-of-his-life out there. Sweet dreams old man.


The loosing team was not very happy after there so-much-fu**ing-defeat and partly because they have to feed the loosing team. This all happened because of the captain claimed one of the players. This claim will surely infuriate the captain but this we guess I is the truth. With no one in the front seat the losing-team was as scattered as a group of hot chicks get after seeing khurram approach =). With two people in command the team didn’t have a clue where and whom to follow. The adverse gaming conditions even heightened the tension and pressure upstairs. The captain of the team upstairs was supposed to be HitMan who was helpless himself. GecKo says that HitMan is the most inapt candidate for a team captain, the captain of the other team Sameer keeps a cool head and does not yell on his team mates, whereas, HitMan unaware of the situation always yells on his team mates which downs the moral of the team and decreases their output. The di*k! oh I mean HitMan I must say played very well, his sniping was on its best, the best I have sever seen it. But HitMan should realize the conditions and then make decisions and give orders. A person with 1500 starting money can definitely not buy a hand grenade and a gun. “if I would have been out there with a pistol in my hand then I would have been shouted over for not carrying a gun, thay just don’t see it, this is why I like LAN, there people don’t shout at you for not playing with a gun or a pistol all they need from you is to perform. I think Sameer had a splendid strategy of sending a group of three on one side and the rest four on the other side and the problem of harmless bullets just made it even better for them”. Another misconception made his abilities of captaincy further more dubious according to unknown resources he claimed that coldice is a sniper which turned out the biggest lie of the century =P, the decision of having Coldice on his team was seriously disapproved by Gecko but HitMan overlooked the comments from his fellow team mate. However, Coldice played exceptionally well to make this decision not a very very regretful one.

Sameer Hashmi the person who never likes to loose. This is good but very bad in a way. This Saturday on their way to the GZ Sameer did something Gecko found most displeasing. According to Gecko “sameer said, Asif you would deeply regret this decision of yours. The term used with it InshaAllah made gecko very alarmed and said he should not say like this even if he felt that HitMan would regret his idea of having COLDICE on his team”. These little things from Sameer though sound and look like little but are big and very serious in there own way and should be avoided on all costs. This makes him sound like a grudged person who never wants his fellow mates to win and would do anything to stop them from doing this. This week what he said did actually turned out to be true and correct as HitMan really did regretted his options after the gaming.

This week a new hero stepped forward for the rescue of the team. The so called dukaan-walay-uncle is a former team player Razi. This fellow gamer was seen very active yesterday shouting out commands to the teams *even more then the team captain himself*. This lead to an exchange of harsh words between him and GecKo, who was already pissed off on his unsatisfactory performance. The dukaan walay uncle played a sheath anchor role in the defeat of their team but whatever it be the game play was so very unlike his usual and a very important and appreciable one. Bravo Razi a.k.a dukaan walay uncle.

Once again!! I try to bring to notice of the fellow players that a change of location is now becoming more and more mandatory with the time. This Saturday both Robomani *well he usually have some problems with the gear he gets! =P* and Zam had problems with their mice and half of the team upstairs did not have a headphone. The availability of mice on a shop which also deals in computer accessories is a very absurd and strange thing. There are network issues which always causes one team to complain about the players of the other team to be bullet-proof. This has been observed *Sameer himself had once asked to shift the server to another PC when he was thrashed limitlessly* by many people over-and-over again. On their way back robomani approved that the conditions were not at all fit for the team upstairs to play with the bullet-proof people on a rampage. He was speechless about the defeat. I ask my team members to please look for another GZ once we get usual over there they can also give us this little favor like Ali bhai of scorpionzz does.

I am fully aware that this edition of CS Weekly would be one of the most controversial one. This was all folks.

Scorpionzz diaries - by GecKo.

Headlines

GecKo strikes again
Khurram gets *yet* another chance to celebrate
Azeem in trouble =P

In Detail

(SShZ,scorpionz,Gulistan-i-Jauhar) Again like always gecko got into the groove, here this saturday. Gecko got the GZ late and appologizes to his fellows for the unaccpetable behavior.But during the game gecko proves his presence at the games is an essential one, with scores like 36-18 he lead his team to success in de_inferno(CT) and de_dust(T).This saturday the teams were suitably balanced and the result more competition with both teams reaching 10 wins each time *shayad*.So the next saturday *if played* wudbe anexciting one too with this new line up.We like always expect the same from Gecko.

Like last week this week too khurram seemed highly pleased with himself.when asked about the details he said he had achieved the "Goal" of his CS week,and when asked what it was,it turned out to be "to cut GecKo".Well this proves GecKo's celebrity status amongst his gang,that cutting him means so much to some people infact i must say to most of them.This just seems tobe like some zimbabwayan bowler gets tendulkar or afridi on a duck,he would be pleased about the rest of his career, bragging tht it was his highest accomplishment.When asked GecKo about this he said "its fun to see khurram celebrate my cutting,it pleases me and proves i m still a hot item." =D ..ssSSSSS..

And in the end, Gecko's friend was missed after the game by two people namely HitMan and GhostRider both of them accusing the other of looking and liking him *yuk!! :$*..well all GecKo have to say on this is"Hey ZAM be careful!!,Gul khan had asked me for kids once too =D"..
With this i sign off,You stay classy readers,this is saquib haider,CS Weekly.
