If you want to win tournaments, using an airsoft shotgun is a good start. I know there are pros and cons in using this kind of airsoft gun but if used accordingly, you can be unstoppable. The main feature which separates airsoft shotguns from other types of guns is its scattered shot. You don’t even need to have a site scope just to hit an opponent. This made it perfect for short and mid range battles. Here are a few tips in using an airsoft shotgun which can almost assure victory in any war game tournament.

Patience is the key factor to be effective in using an airsoft shotgun. Don’t let the power of your airsoft gun get into your head. Whether the opponent is using a pistol or a long rifle, consider them equally dangerous. Always be on the safe side. It’s better to lure an opponent than charge your way into him. It’s also a good idea to look for defense holes and penetrate it as quickly as possible to launch an attack which will surprise your opponents.

Wow Gold and Blizzard

2 October, 2011 | | No Comment

We all know that World of Warcraft is the biggest Massively Multi-player Online Playing Game in the World. There are over 9 million players subscribe to this game. Now many players are complaining about other players cheating by buying World of Warcraft gold. Blizzard has agreed to take measures to stop the players who are selling Wow gold. As we can see that Blizzard has done much to stop the gold sellers.

In recent years, gold selling has become an even bigger business than ever. I have noticed that there are now a larger portion of players who are looking to buy Wow gold than ever. Some people guess that the Blizzard is behind the scenes of gold selling. Could it be possible? Whether they are or not, but players are accepting the idea of buying and selling gold in World of Warcraft. Even World of Warcraft players are now selling the gold to make extra money to pay for the subscription fee for every month.

The Blizzard stated that the account is theirs and players cannot sell the virtual account. But didn’t we buy the game and the account? Blizzard may have the right to your character. But we still paid for the game and we manage the account ourselves. We should be able to sell our account to other players if we do not want to play this game anymore.

The only work Blizzard doing is banning the account of the gold seller. But it seems that there is no reduce of gold sellers. As long as there are players need Wow gold there would always be a seller who is willing to provide. Why not let the players decide what they want to do in the game. Isn’t the game supposed to cater the players’ happiness?

Blizzard has threaten many sellers to stop selling with lawsuit but never have one gold selling site been shut down yet. I believe Blizzard has given in to what players want.

Making Kungfu Tea

29 June, 2011 | | No Comment

Kungfu tea is a rather complicated Chinese tea brewing method which is popular in south eastern provinces of China and Taiwan. The word “kungfu” here means “time and effort” instead of “martial arts” which it often refers to. There are a lot of time and efforts involved in this multi step tea brewing approach. Each step is considered to be essential to maximize the taste of a tea. Kungfu tea brewing is especially popular for tea tasting and drinking expensive fine Chinese teas by tea.

Amongst all factors that are able to affect the tea taste, water quality and temperature are of paramount importance. Distilled or extreme soft water that lacks minerals are not good for brewing. Hard water that has too much minerals in it is going to ruin the tea taste and render it bitter. In order to brew a nice cup of tea, natural spring water or underground water from certain areas are ideal. Tea lovers would often go a long way to fetch these kinds of water for their fine teas.

Oolong teas and Pu’er tea are the most popular teas used by this method. Green teas are generally not used for kungfu tea brewing. For oolong tea 95C (203F) is the optimal temperature, whereas 100C (212F) is ideal for Pu’er and other compressed teas.

To determine the temperature of water tea drinkers don’t need a thermometer – it was not yet invented 2000 years ago when people started brewing teas this way. The temperature of the water can be determined by the size and the sizzling sound made by the air bubbles in the kettle. When there are small bubbles appear accompanied by loud and rapid sounds the water is about 80C (176F), as soon as the bubbles become bigger and the pitch of the sizzling sound lowers, the water is ready for oolong teas. Boiling water (100C or 212F) is when the bubbles disappear and the sizzling sound stops.

One of the biggest madden cheats in recent years was the HB Direct Snap of Madden NFL 09. This plays was so deadly that as soon as the game was released the Tournament directors around the country had to ban it right away. One of the most famous users of this Madden Cheat was no other than Rapper/Actor Bow-Wow, who challenged the Rapper Game in a $100,000 Charity Match.

The Madden Cheat was simple to do. You would come out in the Gun Doubles On and select HB Direct Snap. You would then hold the right trigger and the button of the receiver you wanted to hike the ball to. Right before hiking the ball, let go of the right trigger and hike the ball. If done right the ball will appear in the receiver’s hand automatically., and you could run up the field before the Defense even knew what happened. This was nothing more then a Madden Cheat.
