streetwars

today i discovered a new game called streetwars.
streetwars is a 3 week long, 24/7, watergun assassination tournament that has already taken place in new york city, vancouver, vienna, san francisco, los angeles, and recently seems to have taken place at london.
at the starting date of the game you get an envelope containing the data you will need to find and kill your target(s): picture, address, name and contact information
once you have the info, your mission is to find and kill your target using water guns, water balloons or super soakers (the mission can be done alone or in group). and the moment you kill your target he or she or they will give you their target which will become your target now.
the game continues till you get the envelope with your picture and your info and then you get cash... the cash prize depends on the number on the number of people that plays but they ensure it could be arround 500$ or more and the game players are more or les 150.
there are some more simple rules such as that a kill is one shot, you can use any water weapon you can imagine and there are some save areas such as work place, buses, etc and the play zone is the whole city (in some cases such as a too big city, the area may be restricted)

According to an article from the independent, one of the players spent from 4am waiting outside their opponents home to get them on the way to work, another set up a fake job interview just so he could squirt someone and take them out, I've read elsewhere of people literally hiding in bins for hours just waiting to get their target.

But for Billy S - not his real name - a thirtysomething City IT specialist, talk of danger was overblown.

He spent the morning from 4am lying in wait for his target outside his London flat. Dressed in a business suit in order to blend in with his surroundings, he shot but narrowly missed but then as his quarry fled, he trained his fire on another member of the rival team who popped her head out of the window to see what was occurring. She too survived ...

...In the United States, one player lured an opponent to a fake job interview before literally "hosing" them down. Others have rummaged through rubbish bins for clues about their targets or tricked their way into apartment blocks.

... Hamish Moseley had taken the precaution of wearing a wig on the way to work yesterday. Having been summarily appointed team leader of his "assassination squad", Death Aquatic, he was a high-value target for would be assailants. If he is "killed" the entire three-man team is out.

"Frankly I'm crapping myself. I was looking outside my house this morning to see if anyone was there. I wore the wig when I went to the pub at lunchtime and now I'm just keeping a low profile. The attraction is living on the edge. The thrill is going up to a complete stranger you only know from a photo and soaking them. But you do think, 'what if I get someone's surly brother by mistake and they beat me up'?"

But the tension was already starting to show. "It is only one day into it and I'm having a bit of a miserable time at the moment hiding here in the office. I'm worried that there are a lot of serious people without jobs out there and a lot of time on their hands who are looking for me.


so... you better keep your attention when yo walk the streets of your city cause at any moment, at any place you could get involven in a water war and end killed by accident!!!! whawhawahaaaaaa!!!

guam... such a nice place!!

far away, in the north pacific ocean there is a small island named guam. guam is an island in the group known as micronesia, the island was originaly discovered by magallanes and nowadays is part of the united states of america since the second world war (so it's president is george w. bush).The island has a surfece of 549 km² and 164,000 citizens. its economy depends of turims (has one million visitors per year).
guam's demography is composed by 25% of philipinean and 47% of chamorros.

guam oficial languages are english, japanesse and ... chamorro, below you will find some basic phrases in chamorro:
  • hafa adai «Hello»
  • hafa tatmanu hao? «how are you?»
  • hayi na'an-mu? «what's your name?»
  • si antonio yo' «i am Antonio»
  • buenas días «good morning»
  • buenas tatdes «good afternoon»
  • buenas noches «good night»
  • adiós «bye»
  • asta agupa' «see you tomorrow»
  • si yu'os ma'ase «thanks»
  • buen probechu «nothing at all»
  • amigo «friend»
  • guahan «Guam»

as you can see chamorro is very similar to spanish but has some diferences probably due to the influence of japanesse or any kind of malasian...

firls of all i will explain what a tri-becator is: a becator is a grant-holder, a scholar, someone still taking his grads and who is available to be used to any purpose by a company in exchange for some money, generaly not much more than 6 euros per hour. a tri-becator is someone who gets three becator "jobs" at onece. tri-becators are a rare and hard to fins specie and i have become one of this few mad people :O
since monday 3rd of july i work for atos origin in addition of my previous two jobs (photoform graphic designer and gits developer).
for the moment i am just geting started in atos and i have started taking a look at how they work and reading some oracle faqs to get to oracle erps.
this tri-becator situation means i will have less time to post silly things and i know that those thousands or even millions of peple who usually read my blog will be sad for this but i will do my best to please all of you!!!

masturbate for peace

i am not sure if it is for sure or just a joke but it is curious at least... the idea of this association is based on the fact that it is better to make love than war and since they believe that good thoughts are a powerfull weapon and there is no better thougth than loving your self... the propose to think on happy and positive things to share with the rest of the world all this self-loving. so lets masturbate focusing your thoughts and energy towards love and peace and make our world a better place to live!!!
