Elma outdoors?

Post by Ramone »

I went out the door to get some sun and air this morning, and what a morning it was. With summer at my doorstep and Elma in my head, I just don´t know what to do. I just love to be outdoors, breathing fresh air and it makes me feel great. At the same time I got this urge for Elma (which I didnt play much last year). So, do I lock myself up inside, to play, while sun is missing me outside, or, do I kill Elma and run in the sun?

Then it hit me, Elma outdoors! Must feel great to play with and endless sky above you, with no windows to trap you, with real air in your lounges.

So my question to you, did anyone ever arrange for themselfes so that you could play this elastic game outdoors?

I know I would love it. (Två flugor i en smäll!)

I´ve LANed counter strike, starcraft and elma outdoors. It´s nice but the sun gets quite annoying after some time. Also, (unless you are using a laptop) the sun light will reflect in the screen and it will be near impossible to see.

Last summer holiday I played world cup 5 even 8 some hours outside with laptop with external keyboard sitting on our outdoor furnitures. I had planned to do much more outdoor world cup hoyling but never got to it. The sun wasn't a problem for me that time.

I'm planning to take my laptop to beach this summer. But it's not too good to play on my laptop so only some cruising. I tend to play in busses and trains when travelling.
