I got absolutely skullf**ked in the Diplomacy game and you don't see me freaking out that hard.
I do not know anything about that time since I had to enter the game.
Still, as someone who grew up listening to Metallica in Cigarette Smoking Areas on HS campuses, before they forced us across the street (Which interestingly enough allowed a lot more MJ consumption since it went off campus), my natural reaction would have been to "Fight Fire With Fire".
Sorry saw your SF ref and needed to put on an old Canadian Heavy Metal band, since after all Metallica still rules.
Seen some of the younger guys at work in recent years who handle hazardous waste with Metallica "Master of Puppets" hoodies and hats.
You obviously got turned into a voodoo doll way early in the game from the maps I have reviewed...
Maybe time to listen to a bit of "Fight Fire With Fire"?
