Disclaimer:
The following is scientifically proven by me, so don't complain about it because what I write is fact, and fact means its true. That in mind, what I say is the truth, so you should just shut up and go with it.

Find where you belong:

MLG pro: You're a professional gamer, and no lowly matchmaking warrior can't even come close to your status in life. You make a comfortable living by playing at a professional level, and you get laid often by nut hugging gold digging groupies.

Life is generally good for you.

The average gamer: You play for fun because that's the whole point of playing a video game. You understand what it means to play a little more serious when needed, and a little more laid back when faced by newbs. You don't keep track of your arena standings, k/d ratio, type of weapons used, and you don't make it a habit to be on the forums all day because you rather use your time playing the game to have fun.

Life is really good for you.

The so called "MM Pro": You're on the forums all day, you play all day, you take notice when your k/d ratio goes up by 0.01, you consider yourself a "pro" when you can't even keep up with MLG professionals, you boast about beating randoms with your premade, and worst of all, you act the opposite online compared to the you in real life. In other words, a tryhard.

Life is so miserable for you that you need to create an alter ego to artificially boost your confidence.

Playing for sun should by no means necessarily make one "average"

This is more or less true for me.

This has to be the dumbest post today, Congradulations.

im an average tryhard.


There's no middle ground on this one nerd. You're either an addict or not, there is no blurry line in between, so put more thought into it.

My opinion, from what I remember, you're a pathetic so called "MM pro". Not as bad as before, but you still are.

While this seems to be a near perfect description for the gaming community, I feel like its incomplete. There are a couple types of people who would be in between the 3 standard types.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

I'm the average gamer I guess.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Sounds exactly like me. Spot on, Watson, spot on.

Who really cares what I say, right?

If I am what I play I can be a Spartan III! Yay! Augmentations, suicidal missions, expensive armor, blowing things up, phychological problems, and last but not least, respawning! I get to die again and again and experience the pain of being killed in various ways.

All 3 can have sub-types, but in a nut shell, it boils down to just those 3.

1 shot 4 kills

I'm just you're average gamer. play for fun, could care less about k/d ratio, and i just sit back and enjoy my time.

Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked.
Money don't grow on trees.
I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed, There ain't nothing in this world for free.
I know I can't slow down, I can't hold back, though you know, I wish I could.
No there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.

All 3 sound really homosex to me.

Funny how it's only average gamers responding, but the so called "MM pros" are nowhere to be seen.

What's wrong tryhards? Did I hit the nail on the head with this one? lulululululz
