When Video Game Trolling Is A Good Thing

The timer ticks down toward zero. We tear across the Boneyard, one of Halo: Reach‘s best multiplayer maps, my good friend Rus driving with me sitting shotgun. I’m clutching the blue flag in hands that would be sweating if they were real.

An Advanced Class In How To Be A Giant Idiot In Halo: Reach

I’m not above a good multiplayer betrayal every now and then. I use my color-blindness as an excuse the way a good forum troll uses Asperger’s or agoraphobia. But this guy, UnstoppableLuck, takes it to the next level.
