*****Your last Pug in one word*****

Unexpected

I searched for a random match, dropped GiP into Wave 1 Jade/Geth, with a TGI/Carrier host who went down and got stomped the very second I joined. Why even bother starting alone if you can't survive the first wave as a TGI? We picked up two competent pugs along Wave 1, everyone played the objectives, no missiles on Wave 11 and a 3WS medal.

Yeah maybe, but sona was probably wandering the map on his own dying all over the place, while the others were doing objectives and working together...
Those pugsner...

Yes, with an Adas ringing in his ear all day as the Brute applies the butt-pineapple. Again and again.

Sploosh!!!
I was doing fine in a pug goldgame with a claymoar AIU until....I was out of shields and the almost dead atlas in front of me was about to shoot, i reload cancel and *click* no ammo! Knowing that the atlas would kill me if he got his shot of, my whole arm shoots out looking for the 8 key for ammo, there was a big full glass of Coca Cola between it... Went all over my Razer Death Stalker keyboard, desk and even some over my monitor!

But..... But ....

Perhaps it should be named,

"The Goldarm Device". Standard gear for all combat simulations.

Delayed (gratification).

After N7Day, I was inspired to play a bit more. Of course, I am behind on homework so I had to wait until tonight to get another chance. I had a couple of good matches with the mandatory disconnect (on PS3). 21/25 on 2nd roster and down to gold maps, solos, 3 million points and 3 gold extractions. Also, golds seem to be the only matches available (too scurred to pug plats). Had a couple of okay matches with new pugs each time. Playing as my N7 Shield basher / frosty machine because I'm way rusty.

End up on White/Reapers. Match goes pretty good. Team has synergy with Vorcha burninator and I combo'ing like crazy and a demolisher tossing out electric candy. I'm excited because I only need one more extract to get Operator and narrow my BotB a bit more. Everything is going great until extraction and then it happens. LAG. ;;;

The game sputters and spits like my old Plymouth at 16. The enemies aren't able to function properly so I head straight to the X-out so there is at least some chance of saving this. The clock counts down. Nothing.

I realize what has to happen to save the day. Our host who is top scorer has to leave. Now, fortunately, I am extremely social, but have been holding off to be polite. At this point, I begin to pour my heart out so our host will let the migration begin. The clock resets to 2:00 again. Enemies stutter into movement as our host lags in place. The other two teammates are with me and share anxious looks. Well, the vorcha always looks anxious. I continue to explain the hopelessness of not finishing if the host doesn't leave. I type him a message on PS3 (that's how slow the enemies were going). No reply.

The clock counts down again! I am refusing to leave. I will outstubborn the host. And then I hear it. The shuttle is coming in as the announcer is hurrying us on. The clock strikes 0 for the 3rd or 4th time. It's been like 10 minutes. The vorcha gives into dispair and leaves. Another minute of silence before the announcer declares us gone. The game continues on for me as swarmers crawl into the sky. Finally sweet oblivion announces the end of the match. Shortly followed by "connection has been lost to the game."

I pray for credit for the extraction. I say I don't even care about the credits (lies). The challenge menu declares my success. Peace, at last. Victory, at last.

Yeah. I'm going to play again tomorrow.
