Happy Independence Finland

First, lets get some music here: Now that we are listening one of the most beautiful pieces of orchestrated music in recent history (and by recent I mean music made from 1800 forwards), we shall discuss what this national holiday entails, and a little bit of the other holiday on the same date, St. Nicholas’ day. First thing to discuss about this independence day is what was we became independent from. Now, I could go into a lot more detail about the entire history of this region from about 1100 (when the crusades started to come into the north) all… [Continue Reading]

Damn I am good at SFM

Now that I am over praising myself, I want to talk about what I can and cannot do with Valve’s Source Filmmaker. You’ve probably seen some of my SFM posters if you have been reading any of my blog posts not counting the Tetris one. I also sometimes post them into other threads but I usually post them into the Daily SPUF thread to keep it up-float. Here is a link to Imgur where I have most of my pictures.

Sham1 tries to CS:GO Part 1- The Beginning

Four thousand five hundred hours of TF2 and counting, one hundred and forty one hours of CS:GO. This is my  first blog post about my attempts at getting decent at Counter-Strike. This picture pretty much sums my experience with CS:GO at this point. The question of “How should I play this game?” is very important to me, and because I myself am a person who does not like to do stuff like matchmaking on games like this before I know I am very good at it, it will probably stay like that for awhile. But because I got myself a FACEIT account, I… [Continue Reading]
