Man, I had a great time today. I finally understand what all of the actors from the last competition are talking about when they say that they want to act in the next one.
Seeing how all of you reacted to the same situations was very interesting and informative. Just to break it up for you:
- Mission one you were supposed to come away with a basic understanding of how to control a large amount of subjects and how to search them all, even if they are insulting you while teaking out on the floor and talking about flying fish with "giant goddamn fangs".
- Mission two had one lesson that you all learned very well, I am sure: watch the motha fuckin windows! I shot a LOT of people (I'm talking no less then two from each team, and as many as seven) on this mission because no one really wacthed any of the entrances to the crackhouse other then doors.
- On mission three I applaud a lot of you guys for trying to neogotiate with me. Bold move with me standing there holding a bottle to Cori's head and a MAC-10 down the back of my drawers. Unfortuneatly for you guys I was told that I was to play someone who could not in any way be neogotiated with. No amount of talking, promising or goodies were going to get me to give her up without a fight. This was one of those missions where you wanted to hit fast and hit hard, throwing flashbangs along the way. The teams that got bogged down and slaughtered in the stairway were those theams that failed to apply the appropriate tool for the appropriate job.
Let me get one thing clear before I hear it through the grapevipe: this is not me or any of the other actor's bragging. While some of you performed better then others, the very fact that you showed up to learn proves that you want (and will) get better. You were supposed to learn from all of these exercises and grow into a better team. That and having a good time while doing it is the goal.
I had a hell of a time guys, even though I got horribly shot up in the process.
To next time!
EDIT - And that DM from WAR who shot me while I was on the roof - excellent shot, man! Right in the neck. POW! Game over.
