I have seen a certain player on MNC quite a lot, and his name is FEED DA KITTY. I have run across him more and more since I got to 99 and tonight I learned something funny and kinda cool. He joined my party because a friend and I were playing on Ammo Mule and he joined. So he comes in and we start talkin' and it turns out this guy lives 10 minutes from my freakin house! How insane is that?! I have seen this guy in game for weeks and never knew. Just thought I would share this because I am still blown away at the chances of this happening randomly on XBL.
The matchmaking sets you up with people with the best connection to you, It's not surprising that if your both playing at the same time it sets you up with your neighbor.
D'aww. Now you can run over and call him a camping nooblet to his face. Seriously though, that's pretty awesome. The only Irish person I've bumped into on MNC is Ian, and he's a muck savage from some boghole called Wexford, whereas I am a sophisticated and elegant Dub.
Wow, you actually ARE from Ireland?! I feel really dumb because I had thought you just had Irish blood in you and lives in like, America or something... Anyways, on topic! I think it's awesome to find that out! Now I can't help but wonder if people I've played with live near me..
Silly Ian. If it's not Dublin, it's a boghole full of culchies with webbed toes Yup. Couldn't you see my crushing alcohol dependency and massive family? There's actually 9 people in my family. Stereotype slippery slope... I'd love to have a big MNC LAN party some time. Y'know, really establish myself as an upstanding member of the Nerd Herd.
You need red hair too to complete the stereotype <3 And have a pet Leprechaun. The pot of gold is optional.
Shush, I'm a Dub at heart, just without the accent HAHA, Good luck finding a pot of gold anywhere here in the next 4 years
Are you saying Leprechauns are easier to find..? If so I need a plane ticket right now I have a gypsy curse I need rid of :lol:
Not suprising? I have played with THOUSANDS of people, and most of the time I look at their gamercards cause I am just bored and he is the only one I have seen anywhere within 200 miles of me.
If you ever get to Dublin, look for a sign for Temple Bar. It'll lead you right to a leprechaun... or that singing midget with an acoustic guitar. Man, I hate that guy :evil: Also, over here, we call a gypsy a "knacker", eh Senstivepsycho?
My friend i met on xbox live 7 houses down from me... I was like dude where do you live? friend: Oh i live in ******** chapel me: really so do i! thats awesome what neigherhood friend: oh ******* oaks me:HOLY **** ME TO! friend:Wow hold on i have to walk my dog mek I go outside sit on my front porch and see some dude walk by with a dog im just like.... ummm....... go back inside. me:did you just see a blonde kid seating on his porch when you just left? friend:um yeah WTF..... been bestfriends since!!!! TRUE STORY!! SERIOUSLY!! FINE DONT BELIEVE ME...
So I'm from Newfoundland, Canada. I immigrated to Manitoba with my family when I reached middle school (to town 1), because lord knows it's easier to find a palm tree in Newfoundland than a job. My father worked for years in this new town before moving again. A few years after moving to this other town (town 2) in Manitoba, we go back to Newfoundland for a vacation. We visited the site where the Vikings supposedly settled way back in the day, and turns out that this has become an edutainment centre. Now here's where it gets real strange. There was an actor working there who played the role of blacksmith. I had been talking with him for a while, and he mentions that he used to be in a band, playing back on the mainland. "No kiddin'?" I says, "Where'd ya play?" He tells me that he used to play with his band in the bar in town 2. As if the odds of that happening weren't sky high as is, it also turns out that his brother was my father's boss back in town 1, and that his younger cousin was one of my best friends from that town when I was growing up. It's a small world.
