Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Great elektrostomp tonight, goons! We killed at least ten or fifteen people. Not bad.

I'm waiting for the server to eat my character though, I've had the same guy for three days now.

On another note, healthy status is amazing, I was shot twice and just bandaged up and was healthy again inside of five minutes. Eat everything, all the time. Drink up.

An organized squad of five guys in uniform (all wearing press jackets and carrying M4s) was sitting south of Solnichy, killing fresh spawns. After I spawned there multiple times doing my best Mike Tyson roleplay and failing completely thanks to loving motorcycle helmets, I called the goons from Kamy. The pubbies were then surrounded and murdered over the course of half an hour. Behold our work.

Sometimes... sometimes in this glorious running simulator we call Day Z, something... magical happens.

Today, a group of ten or so goons were patrolling the eastern coast and decided to head to Berezino. We sated our thirst for blood with six pubbie kills. We then server hopped from the green houses on the south end of Berezino, now only a group of six. A group of six pubbies had claimed the construction site. Two of us fled to the trees where we took sniper fire and returned it to the construction site, trying to buy time for the other four to flank along the north. I died. Turtle dad, my sniper friend died. I had killed one on the fourth floor turtle had killed one on the third. The flanking group ran into a stranger along the way and killed him. They reached the stairs and met their end after taking two more out.

The pubbies emerged victorious.

...so they thought.

Little did they know that in the time I died, I had spawned on another server, planning to avenge my friends with naught but my fists. I reached the construction site and the clouds parted. The LORD spoke:

"I BEQUEATH UNTO THEE THIS FIRE AXE; GO FORTH AND DO MY WORK"

I accepted the LORD'S gift and jumped back to the server that had been our demise.

The black screen fades away. I hear groans of pain.

I pull out THE LORD'S GIFT and round the corner into the stairwell:

WHAP WHAP WHAP

Fueled with righteous fury I begin to sing in local chat: "GAWWWWD BLESS AMERICUHHHHH,"

one naked Bambi

WHAP WHAP WHAP

"LAAAAAAAAND THAT I LOOOOOOVE,"

one geared pubbie

WHAP WHAP WHAP

"STAND BESIDERRRRRRR"

another geared pubbie

WHAP WHAP WHAP

"AND HIGHERRRRRR SOMETHING SOMETHINGGGGG"

another fully kitted pubbie comes up the stairs

WHAP WHAP WHAP

"SOMETHING SOMETHING SOMETHINGGGGGGGG AMEN"



The LORD's work was done, my brothers avenged.

I accepted the LORD's gift with humility. I descended the stairs to check the third floor. BANG BANG HISS HISS HISS I begin to bleed. A final pubbie, hiding in the northern corner of the third floor. I run to him, only to find that this is a corpse! I am still being fired upon by a heathen, a heathen prone next to the doorway to the stairway I had just came from! I turn- HISS HISS HISS- and weave -HISS HISS CRACK HISS- and turn -HISS CRACK HISS- I'm almost there LORD, let me finish your work- HISS HISS HISS- WHAP WHAP WHAP-

The screen goes dark.

I am unconscious. "I have done my best to work thy will, LORD. Your faithful servant comes ever homeward."

I await the final blow to send me back to the LORD.

I am unconscious.

"LORD, why do you torment your servant so? Did I not please thee?"

I am unconscious.

"LORD?"

"LORD...?"

"LORD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN THEE?"



THE LORD IS GOOD. AMEN.

tl;dr: goons got wiped and I axed the gently caress out of the five dudes that wiped us out and lived.

Some good sniping at Berenzino. One guy was just hugging the north stairwell in the construction building. Doogie went to check it out and his gun failed him when he needed it most. Click click, nothing. Guy mowed him down. Then said guy poked his head up to loot Doogie and three of us shot him at the same time, went down instantly. Guy was absolutely loaded with gear too.

This was immediately after me and one other guy simul-shooting a meat bag in a yellow rain jacket who was also loaded.

I was the other party for the top floor yellow jacket guy and one of the other guys to ice the dude who killed Doogie (who later killed me :argh:).

Man if ghosting is ever justified (it's not, imo) then surely when you're outnumbered 5 to 1 and you're getting flanked it's more justified than if you're in a large group and some guy dug himself into a nice defensible position and you just can't leave him alone. But maybe I just don't get ghosting etiquette.

The only justification I'd say is when someone is being a scrub and hiding in a room with one entry point.

I don't mind the combat logging, it's appearing somewhere on a pitch black server even with gamma jack and getting zero effort kills. At least when a man comes at you with an axe, you have a chance to shoot him. Had it been daytime, he would have been dead, but he literally shot, ghosted. Shot, ghosted.

Ghosting is what it is, I'll kill and be killed by it. I always give the pubs a chance though.
