surely some of you remember these hijinks back on the AI Cafe forums?

set to the tune of The Distance by Cake

reluctantly camped at the red armor
packets pinging and ponging the verse
the t_fog flashes, the rockets fly
flaming and crashing, players die

jumping and strafing, they move for the kill
fragging straight on a pork rib meal
bunnyhoping, straferunning down every hall
they scatter and flee to the quad rockets call

the fraglimit nears, the faint go idle
the servers empty, the campers smile
the flags have all been captured, except for one man
still running, rocketjumping, ping of a lan

the admin has reset and the foes have timed out
but even under lava he does not shout
cause hes respawning and running and seeking that flag
stopped by nothing, not even packetloss or lag

hes charging the flag room
hes gunnin for red
that flags undefended
in its time of need
because they idled, and timed out, yet he still persists
hes propelled by rockets and airfists
hes charging the flag room

no fanfare, no 10 score, no capture, no win
defeated by something he cannot defend
admin tossing insults about the matches course
"you speedhacked and used, illegitimate source"

but he insists no cheats, no way that could be
"i just wanted to own in the base mckinley,
so i practied, and dry ran, like a hook monkey
so i could win this match of backwards F T C"

the admin shakes his head and resets the server
but before he can their arrives such a fervor
refusing to lose his network socket
our hero frags the admin with an octa-rocket

hes charging the flag room
hes gunnin for red
that flags undefended
in its time of need
because they idled, and timed out, yet he still persists
hes propelled by rockets and airfists
hes charging the flag room
hes gunnin for red
he'll capture that flag now
or youre gonna be dead

Set to the tune of John Cash's 4'33"


Smoke clears in the hall
a charred piece of hair drifts down
the eyeless face smiles
