Filipino police say Veronica Galang was shot in the eye in front of a computer shop in Quezon City where the pair had been playing. Police are still hunting the boy, who they allege was armed with a home-made shotgun and fled after the incident. Philippine Star reports officers have discovered she had beaten him several times at the game and teased him about the standard of his play. He allegedly flew into a rage and pulled out the gun.

bn880 5 Posted July 28, 2002 That's pretty sick. Wonder how much she really teased him, he should not have done that. Also shows you how stupid the girl was to tease someone like that! (more stuff to learn every day) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus, a real woman would likely totally intimidate LAN party boys...so you'd have no worries. Just grimace and they would run in fright Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ralphwiggum 6 Posted July 28, 2002 it's sometimes frustrating for me when my siblings ask me to do a favor when I'm playing games. I'm having fun and they are interrupting me and it is irritating. but shooting is gone to far. probably Avon is playing OFP LAN party, and everyone knows who she is in OFP world, so they won't dare cross her!

I was playing with some buddies and my roomate was just ripped. We were working him pretty good and had all of his money and he refused to sell some property. Well one guy started wrestling with him and bounced his head off a corner in the wall. It dented the corner and my roomate was out cold. Next morning he didn't remember any of it, but didn't understand why he had such a headache COLINMAN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xmurderx 0 Posted July 28, 2002 america is very stupid about suing, in america its like "oh, you hurt my feelings, Iam going to sue you". a bunch of bulls**t if you ask me. so I dont think the parents first concern is suing. a home made shotgun? jeez, if someone is crazy enough to make a shotgun I wouldnt play against him.

KingBeast 0 Posted July 28, 2002 I bet the guy was one of those mildly retarded people that get really angry over the smallest of things. And more often than not, people find it amusing and find provoking the said person to be entertainment without limits. Thats just my untrained analysis. Either that or the guy was a complete nutter.
