Anxiety?

I never get much anxiety playing online, because well...it's online. 90% of the time I find it about as interesting as a day old ham sandwich; those 10% of games that're SMOOTH are awesome though. I enjoy those and the adrenaline starts flowing. Sometimes I'll hype myself up if I know I'm playing someone with a smooth connection.

(As most of you guys know by now, my performance is ridiculously varied online. One lag spike, dropped bnb, or DC kills my momentum for the day...shit sucks!)

I feel pretty calm when playing online, but still sweat like hell. I guess that's my body's only response to everything, sweat.
Can you gather that in a bucket and ship it to me?!

I'll trade you the dried sweat and skin flakes that I scrape off my pad every week or so! If you're using a DS3, then you know what I'm talking about. That thing is a gunk magnet! The Hori is so much easier to clean...

I found the cure...

Mary Jane kept me cool and collected. Beat some guy with a great record in KOTH. Feels good man.

Damn, he looks like L'il Jon in about 30 years...ironic given his answer. Lol.

A little herbal remedy always helps calm the nerves for me, but it takes too much away from my focus to be a 100% good.
I thought I'd be forgetting combos and whiffing punches all the time, but it all just kind of flowed together. I made a few mistakes, got a few imput errors, but I was album to recover quickly and continue my rampage.

Go to hell.
Yea dude, I feel you, especially in KOTH when I'm out and feel the need to defend my super important online ego.
Wait, that sounds so stupid out loud... :(

I'm willing to sell it $2.99 per liter. And I know what you mean about the gunk on the PS3 pad, well at least it's removing it from your skin pores lol.

See, you can play when you're high. Good luck if you're drunk though! I participated in a drunk vs high grand 2 man tournament, I lost badly lol

I think we need to gather all of TYM's collective pad/stick gunk and turn it into renewable energy somehow...GODLIKE!

You need to take the game, people online, and yourself very seriously, or you'll never get a heart attack as your gaming life and lack of any other unhealthy habit will make you live far too long for society to sustain you, and we will have to snipe you out.
Just sayin'.

I used to get very anxious with online, close matches where your hearts racing, your adrenaline's pumping etc but not anymore. That was back in 2004. Now if someone's talking smack, I mute them but also use that to my advantage and it pumps me in up another way, makes me play harder. Maybe once in a while now days it'll happen, but usually if I'm up super late or haven't gotten much sleep or of course am normally anxious. I get anxious with life, but not so much MK since ultimately it means little in life.
