an annoying fighter who got herself killed early after telling some bandits to "Cool it"
Me, when playing with friends: "Telling people to COOL IT basically never works..."
Literally all of them: "Tell them to COOL IT!"

I have seen it work, though. About one time out of fifty.

IIRC, you must survive 3 or 4 "COOL IT!"s first, then it will work, once. Rather tough to pull off, all things considered.

I remember there being a few early encounters where "cool it" didn't really hurt you any, but it's been a while since I've played.

If you're finished with them, you can tell one of the merchants (preferably not a weapon merchant) at a trader camp to "Cool it!" which will help charge it up.

There's a few other places where "Cool it!" works, but I don't know when since I don't play Irritating characters very much.

My favorite time was when I was about to die anyway (no supplies, no car) and I got a prompt for the dog (out of three possible people) to tell the bandits to Cool It. I had to do it.

Someone in the wtf thread was complaining about scam callers, it reminded me to post here about the fake microsoft call I got yesterday afternoon where I wasted their time for about 30 minutes.  It was fun, essentially all I did was follow their instructions, but I pretended my right(main) monitor didn't exist and was following their instructions on the left screen.  They got basically nowhere with me until I think they finally realized I was messing with them and hung up.

All it cost me was 30 minutes and a few seconds of closing windows.  Next time they call asking for my father (who has been dead half a decade) I'm going to set up a virtual machine or two to really waste their time.

      Similar story to @Greiger, a lady with a noticeable Indian accent called and told me that she was from Microsoft and informed me that she was following up on a problem windows 10 had alerted them about.  I said "okay, and which one of the 3,238 errors windows has reported in the last two weeks are you calling about?"

That was me. Problem was they were all recordings, so unless I hit buttons to respond (which almost certainly would have caused them to redouble their efforts) I couldn't do such a thing :(

I think it's second time me seeing such hideous score. First time i was, ahem, part of the cause. I kid you not, this guy back then was reported for being only fine player in the team. Because noob rage. I'm yet to end up understandably furious pro with 30+ kills.  :P

On more owning side, i ambushed lone veigar with w+e+r from a bush just after shouting "just you get into my ult range, VEIGAR!" in chat. Not to other team, sadly.

Managed to finish my first big speedrun. Sure, it was a practice run and thus I didn't record it, but I managed to finish all base game levels of Vermintide 2 (solo with bots, recruit difficulty) in 1:45:27,88.

I can probably hit around 1:30:00 if I practice more. I blundered quite a bit in a few levels.


Also I totally didn't completely make a goof out of myself and post this in the wrong thread.

I had something like that in DOTA.  An enemy bloodseeker (speedy melee glass cannon, peaks early, falls off late) was the only one on his team getting kills, and I was a support with a single target ult that could shut him down consistently.  Poor guy got flamed when he went in and got disabled and he got flamed when he hung back and waited for his chance.  Didn't carry his team hard enough I guess.

Completed the game on Normal without purchasing any weapons. Just the .32 revolver and whatever other things I could lay my hands on.

Could also qualify for the death thread.

In a fairly long game, I managed to get to the point where I had 3 fascination and was about to lose by the fascination event (AKA you go insane).  Also most of my actions were tied up doing things that would take a while.  In fact the only two things I could do before I lost were work and dream.  Dream + health could save me, but it would be a luck based.

My actions were horrifying enough to produce dread, which saved me from insanity with 7 seconds to spare.

It was a 1 on 2, admittedly, but I had a kill streak of 3 while playing spy.
