My cousin, brother, and I would have LAN parties with our systems over at my house. My brother and I didn't really worry about screen peeking because we always knew each other's movements anyway. My cousin, however, was paranoid about screen peeking so he would always set up on the other side of the room. For a while he was sitting directly in front of a big mirror on my living room wall :P once he figured that out he moved to the next adjacent room entirely. Like good cousins, we started listening for his TV's activity, so we'd know what he was doing and could sometimes figure his approximate his position. He dug out this old headset to stop us, but it had this weird "feature" that would dial the volume way back if the noise ever got too loud. We'd take advantage of this by throwing frags across the map until one landed close enough to turn off his volume. BANG. BANG. BANG. "Dammit!" "He's over there!" It was a constant arms race of intel and counter intel.

Haha I love it. Not related to your story, but it is another tale of pissing off people. My friend had a 4 year old kid who had been playing since he was 3. He had a madkatz controller (very small) that worked for him. His handle was "a 4 year old"(or some abbreviated form that still read as the same). If we were playing a particularly inept team and they didn't want to gamble with us, we'd tell them that if they placed the bet, they could pick which one of us would be subbed out by the 4 year old. It was always funny to hear men in their early 20's bitch from another room "FUCK, I got killed by a 4 year old". Either that or a girl that played with us went under the name "a chick".

Awesome! xD nothing brings out the inventiveness of messing with people quite like a good video game.
