Damn internet!

[diddums 3760]

There we were, my mate and I, he knowing the admins of the server we were on and I being a complete noob. He checked out a chat channel that the admins use and found out that they were at an airfield and decided to drag me along for some banditry. Cheating? Dunno, but as I'd only experienced one PK so far (also by his hand) I was definitely going to roll with him. On the way we find a red car stashed away which is in mint condition, has a full tank and is loaded to the arches with gear. Clearly someone's stash. I grab the bike we were riding, he grabs the car and off we go. On the way there are a few difficulties (zeds whacking me off my bike for example) but eventually we get near the airfield. Abandon vehicles, approach silently. I grab out my binocs and have a nose around to see if I see any activity. There's a crow's nest poking out above the wall which I declare clear so we start moving in. Armed with a Lee Enfield and feeling confident as the person that's taking the time to show me around is rather good at this sort of thing, I'm getting excited. We approach the outer wall of the airfield and some zeds decide they want our brains.

I drop the Enfield and grab my hatchet and a few seconds later they're all dead.

Pause.

Resume.

Hourglass. I'm knocked out with a few zeds munching at me. He's moved in without me and nailed one of the guys in the base. The other combat logged. He patches me up, we head inside and loot the corpse. Whilst certainly nice to be able to experience this, I can't help but think that it would've been much better had my internet worked properly and I'd have been able to help out more.

Damn you BT!
