LvR
I got this new game on my Android called Armored Strike. It is a tank shooting game. You get a tank and have to determine the trajectory to destroy enemy tanks. It is allows online game play with 4 players at a time.
It was my first day playing. In a game with 4 very adept players. I was in a tank on the far left. The player on the far right had the first shot, with it he squared up on the tank just in front of me nearly destroying it completely.
I pulled up to the tank in front of me and finished the job at point blank.
After that nearly everyone for every game after that was bad talking me and killing me out first. These were expert players and I didn't have a chance. But I enjoyed the comic banter they had at destroying me and they couldn't seem to understand why I was sticking around..
one of the early players got tired and left the game leaving room for another to join. When they arrived everyone greeted them with knowing welcomes. They gave them a heads up... NO LVR.. this guy shot whats his name in the back.
at this point I asked.. What is LVR?
it was a silent moment and everything seemed to stop.
One guy said.. THATS WHY HE SHOT HIM!
LVR MEANS LEFT TANKS VERSUS RIGHT TANKS / WE ALWAYS PLAY LVR IF 4 TANKS ARE IN A ROOM.
it was a centralized epiphanic discharge and we all got a long well after that.

Rules of Engagement
Posted February 16th, 2011 by Jennifer GroveThis is why MANY BUT NOT ALL women are given such a hard time when they defend themselves. Since fighting is SOMETIMES BUT NOT OFTEN a value for us, we don't usually know the rules of engagement (nor do we care because its all so stupid). So, we'll do something like that and MANY BUT NOT ALL men get all bent and shoot to kill.
I hate fighting and war. But I'll defend myself if I'm attacked. And I don't give a shit about rules then because attacking someone who is looking for peaceful interaction is wrong. And that's the only rule I'm interested in.
I'm glad it all worked out.
