Tournament Update

Thanks to GA’s “rules” (so well explained by ltmon here) the departure of Sha8doW after the roster change cut off will leave us with a maximum of 7 players for round 2. All 7 have committed to be there but barring Sha8doW’s return we will officially forfeit regardless. I have spoken to GA about this but their response was there is no chance for subbing a player after round 1.

I’d hate for those of us who have committed to not get a game in, so I have spoken to Shrek from RoK and informed him it’s possible we will only have 7, and suggested we officially forfeit, but play regardless. Shrek has agreed and will notify his team.

I still can’t wait for the game and look forward to seeing you all there.

If we’re going to go down, let’s go down with dignity.

The Internet makes it OK

This morning I was directed to a forum thread on the ETQW community site, you yourself can read it here:

http://community.enemyterritory.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16355

Today the general public can see what a fool this guy is. I’m referring to Neg, a member of Clan Nesreca. He has previously shown his immaturity online, to IPX and other clans – simply put he is a racist little kid. In this thread he defends his racism by claiming that it’s ok because it’s on the Internet. There is some factual basis to that, studies have shown that due to the relative anonymity of the Internet people will adopt a more aggressive persona, and become more willing to insult other people than in real life. But….

sad tale.

I’m fond of space games like freelancer, so while I was having a look through my steam client to see
what is out there in the way of new games I spotted X3 Reunion for sale $20, after clicking on it I also saw
that for $25 I could get X2 and X3, great. I only have a 5GB cap on my internet plan so the last
time I purchased a game via steam I made sure my ISP had a content server for steam which they do so
when I downloaded Red Orchestra that time I wasn’t charged. Anyway I start the download of X2 and X3,
the following morning X2 was ready to play and X3 was still in the line, np’s so I spent the day playing
X2. That evening I checked the forum and to my disgust the net was running like snot. It seems steam
didn’t use my content server for X2 and X3 and I have been dropped to 56k until my month is up.. Bastards!

Anyhow the moral to my rant is that I can’t play QW until my speed goes back to normal as punkbuster
has a cry that I’m not sending enough packages and promptly kicks me from the server.
The bad news is I my not be able to prac tonight, but the good news is that I only have 4 days before my
net is restored. My apologies, I will try to attend prac tonight but my fingers wont be crossed.

Has anyone seen this man?

Have you seen this man?

If anyone see’s Deviance, in MSN or in game or on a plane – please remind him we have a game Tuesday and we need him there. A few of us are concerned he may not even get online in the next 7 days and we’ll be forced to forfeit.

Yours concerned,

Fuzz
