So…. I’ve been playing Call of Duty 2 on the Xbox 360 in online multiplayer games.  Now…. I like a competition, also…. but I don’t like when people are rude, obnoxious, mean, etcetera.  I have typically gotten less than 10 kills, (a lot of times less than 6) but killed about twice that much or more.

I’ve met some people that are really pleasant to play with, even if they are much better than I am.  Those are the pleasant games… where you can have fun without being nasty.

Some people are just jerks and are ridiculous with their behavior and vulgar comments.  One group of players that had the same beginning name played as a team.  As soon as the game was finished, they made crude, vulgar comments to me and booted me out of the game. 

But, tonight was a bit different.  I played better and actually won my first game.  I had 20 kills in Deathmatch.  I was surprised.  I was looking for my name near the bottom and it was on the top.  I had a couple of games with only 4 kills… but had quite a few games where I scored over 10. So…. I think I’m getting the hang of it.  I said I was surprised I was doing as good as I was… and one of the guys said, “You’re not bad.”  So… I’m improving at least.
