mapCon: phase 2

    meeting skjalg at the airport could be an idea if you guys want to take the time to do that. otherwise i can probably arrange so that you guys can at least get there and get a drink in the bar.

    So far ive had a blast.

    Last night I arrived at the airport around 6pm and went straight to meet Sentura by traveling with the metro for 3 minutes. Once we, we beeing me and my brother, got back to senturas place we had a drink and played some games then went to the next door pizzeria to get some food before joining up with the IO guys at the IO offices.

    We weren't really sure where the IO offices were located, all I knew was that it was closed to a bridge over some water, but appareantly Sentura had a feeling for where it was. And ofcourse he called zacker like 9 times to ask for directions.

    Once we get to the IO offices I am introduced to Mazzle and Warby, and ofcourse Zacker. Everyone of them beeing a lot more awesome than I had previously thought they were or would be. We had a small tour around the IO offices, lingered a little at the corner Mazy and the other two usually were working. (I also saw an image plastered on the wall with the picture of Steve Jobs, signed "To Mazy, thanks for a wonderful night -Steve" or something along those lines. I asked Mazy about it but he avoided my question most brilliantly. I shall ask him another time:P

    Anyways, they showed us some old concept art from Kane and Lynch, from back when it was still called something else, I cant remember the actual name right now but it was a little lame so it was good they changed it. After the the tour we joined the other IO employees in their recreational areas for some free beer and board games. Of course; we were sitting in a corner discussing maps, mapcore and mapcore members for a couple of hours before going out to the students bar Sentura usually gets drunk in.


    Once we got to the bar, we went to ITU's Game Labs instead after aquiring a bottle coca cola for a game of TF2. We had a blast on some Swedish server getting our asses raped on these custom TF2 maps.

    The plans for today is to get something to eat,then meet up with Warby later on. On sunday we'll all go to the movies together to maybe check out Rambo, atleast thats the only free time Mazy had this weekend while setting up his new appartment.

    Right now its closing in on 10am and I have no idea why im awake. Sentura just woke up and complained at me for getting up to early but I'm kind of retarded and I have no idea why I'm awake, but i'll try to get some more sleep. I'll make an additional post later tonight i think

    Its Steve Ballmer! D:

    Quote from Mazy

    Its Steve Ballmer! D:

    lol yeah i always mix up the names, but i was thinking of that insane microsoft dude:P

    Aaanyways, later that night, we were at warbys place and he was working on his unreal map while I basically fell asleep at his couch the moment I came to his place. Still tired from the late tf2 session I guess.

    The next morning me and my brother woke up early and played kane and lynch for a couple of hours. It felt appropriate to do that at his flat

    After like 6 hours warby finally rose from his coffin and we could go out and get something to eat. We went to this baguette-store which warby said was basically like Subway, but I had never eaten at subways so I just nodded my agreement. How can a baguette taste bad after all. (it was excellent btw). We then quickly went back to Warbys place to eat it and check around for a cinema to watch a Rambo in. We quickly discovered that all danish cinemas are retarded and everyone just sent these Rambo-spree thingies were you had to watch rambo 1, 2 and 3 before watching the last one.. (silly danes). So we decided to watch cloverfield instead, even though Mazy had already seen it and rated it 7/10 georfs (which I think was a little harsh, its an 8... really mazy!). On a side note, Zacker got the motionsickness from the movie, I felt bad for him since it was such an awesome movie. Cybbe also joined in on this one, which was nice! : -)

    We then decided to go to a random restaurant, and we decided to just take the first and the best, which happened to be this italian restaurant with no people in it.. A lot of crazy things happened from this point and on, some high points are; The visblock joke everyone thought was funny (!!), Zacker screaming at some homeless retarded person and Warby burning his hand. If only I hadn't forgotten my camera that day I would have documented everything...

    And the camera that made microwave noises when it was done taking a picture D:

    Wtf was up with that!?

    Was great though. Glad to finally meet some of these guys and put faces and voices on them.

    Zacker is a lunatic btw.

    But I still love him. Really.

    If I get to have a say (I know I don't), we should definitely try and do something like this again. Maybe more people will be willing to join, too, when they realize how incredibly awesome it is.

    i know skjalg has some other photos from various other places and i have one with the full mapcon posse on. ill upload it as soon as i can figure out how.
