You ain't lying. That's why I gotta step out of birdie world again to mess with some other characters. I hate that I want to beat survivor. I did easy with errbody and normal with about half the cast. But I can't get much more than halfway through either of the other two difficulties. Boo.

I gotta duck into a corner and play with her for a bit. That's usually how I end up figuring things out. It's also a good way to figure out who's full of it and who is really bringing some kind of 'skill' to their character.

I'm a buttons/footsies player. And yeah, Laura can get all up on you with the quickness if you guess wrong and get ambushed. It reminds me of Dudley and Cody.

I've been getting beat down by stray necalli's too.
