Edit: What cheek, he tried to scam me again only this time my mother answered. I told her the day before about him and so she messed with him for a bit before telling him to piss off and never call again. He replied with "Well your PC is freezing and we wont be held responsible if it goes wrong." and then hung up.

Hey hey.

Haven't journal'd in a while. Mainly cause I don't have that many interesting things to say.

So lately I've been making some new levels for my company while they concentrate on their main product. That's going well. I'm also working on a TF2 Pyro pack which is taking a lot longer than I expected. I started with the flamethrower and UV'd it but texturing showed I should have planned it a little better as the resolution of my brush strokes are blurry so I'm re-uving it right now.

Finally I got a scam call a moment ago. I could tell it was fake as soon as he said my PC sent a message to them that I had a virus...as if I'd have a virus in this day and age.

Here's the scam: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMakMtyAK_Q

P.S. Moocow used cheats to beat Braid.

First Post. That reminds me of when Telemarketers used to call my house, I was a dick to them though, one time I spoke in Spanish, and the chick spoke Spanish back, and, like anyone else would have done, I just started Speaking German. Fun times.

You're in the US, you shouldn't use Spanish if you want to be completely sure.

Nice, wish I knew a second language to do that. In fact, I might print me off a spread sheet of sentences to use. This is gonna be fun :>

My favorite telemarketer scheme is to act like I'm a telemarketer too and I called them. I want a chance to actually do that.

However, for douchebags like that scammer (whether he's the writer of the virus he would have sold or just a telemarketer doing their dirty work) I'd spew a bunch of technobable, say I have a custom Linux-based system, with multiple firewalls, some of which are custom, and insist that nothing can get on my computer without my authorization.

Eh trouble is the Indian bloke was too hard to understand. I doubt I'd understand his response.
