This is an introduction to an absolutely terrific co-op team player arcade-style PC video game that, as good as it is, just plain can’t be played, and I’ll explain why…
Where Is Everyone???
If you’ve ever hunted for a public online video game of any kind, you’ll know the frustration of dealing with the rantings and bitching complaints over the comm channel, but if you’ve ever played in a public online game, you will be painfully aware of the effect.
It’s worse than playing with BOTS, especially if there’s voice chat.
Text is fine, tell me and our team where the enemy is, that’s fine, but please, please, no voice chat. You can avoid the voice spamming misery of team chat very simply by avoiding people altogether. Sounds terribly pleasant, doesn’t it?
Strategy For A New Life
SMOGOPS party member going through the Tunnel of Love & Rebirth, in 2Forts CTF.
We can use the art and science of video game self-reprogramming by first of all motivating ourselves to do the work required to burn off the Karmic grit that has accumulated over the past several millenia. In short, to get rid of the encrusted barnacles on your hull, you’ll need to go into drydock and yes, that means you have to get out of the water for awhile. There are some “hooks” that keep you where you are.
What are the Basic Hooks that keep a BOT, any BOT, including the one you’re wearing, marching toward the sea with the other lemmings?
Single-Player CTF???
Yes, it’s entirely possible. I’m working on it now, and it’s working well. You’re up against a small or large army of opponents — you place them where you want them, and select the easy, medium or hellspawn variety of guards for yourself and the opposite team. You then start the game and let ‘er rip. More about this when I have more time to dissert on subject.
See You At The Top!!!

What to Do While You’re Waiting to Die…
Back in 1967, I opened a bookstore on the Other End of Sunset right in the Heart of Hollywood. It was unusual for its day; I offered rare hardcover books on metaphysics and the occult at a time when there were no paperbacks, none. Most of the books were in French, German or Other, such as Notre Vie Avec Gurdjieff, a rare book indeed in those days, often bringing upwards of $450 for a dog-eared copy. Gurdjieff’s first edition of All & Everything was running around $950 at that time. Manley Palmer Hall’s Secret Teachings in the leatherbound first edition were going at $3500 if you could even find a copy.
BLS #2 — Between Lives State — WarfTown Secrets
Yeah, there are so-called “secrets” of the afterlife, just as there are about painting, sculpture and window-cleaning, the real kind of window cleaning, not washing & wiping, and this is one of them: look carefully at this scene…it’s just as it will present to you. Do you see anything unusual? Anything of which you should take note? There are two doors in sight, between which is a small Will-Call window. Just below the window is a switch; throw it and both doors will open.
The Between-Lives State is Not a Social Club
You come into WarfTown from the Southeast, in the water. You can make your way toward the piers and boardwalk; it’s very easy to navigate, because all else around you is dark, but WarfTown is brilliantly lighted and active.
How to Build: Ancient Alien Radio Rescue Beacon
A crystal radio is the most basic radio you can build. Stranded aliens who crash-landed on Earth did it all the time.
Most radios use electronics to make the sound louder. A crystal radio detects teh radio wave and can create an analog of the signal expressed as sound within the human range of hearing.
Radio waves are an invisible ocean of electro-magnetism.
Earning Merit

Here’s a fun way to earn Work Merit, aka “Baraka” or “Grace“. Hard work, but really rewarding, to use music to create a more or less circular angelic convocation, a landing pad for XTs. Circles are best, hence the advantage of busking or in-the-round theatres. It’s bone-simple to create a Sacred Space — the MoveAct Code gives you all the Keys! Of course, a Good Heart and Fervent Prayers for the Benefit of ALL Beings Everywhere helps a lot. The word “ALL” is the operant word, for those who are paying attention. Oh, I should mention, attention is a kind of money in the Real World. Prayer is a way of spending it.
