Our project is an attempt to understand the social character of online FPS games, best represented by the PC mod for the game Half-Life, Counter-Strike. However, this paper will only focus on a particular subcategory of creative player actions practiced by those that engage in this game.

thought this might be a good read for some of you =)

through in the beginning.
