I like comebacks. Apparently Crazypitt does too!
Hey, introduce yourself.
The name is Mikael from Gothenburg and im 23 years young.
Welcome back to the qwscene. What made you install that good ol quake again?
First of all thx, and I think it was the knowledge that people still do play a game where camping isn’t the to win, im nost cases atleast :)
It seems that even some of the top QuakeWorld players are finally getting really sick of 1on1 matches on DM2. We know there are always some people who get orgasms while watching LocKtar or griffin doing their thing on DM2 but in real 1v1 competition this map really has had its best days. The possibility of extremely defensive play on DM2 makes the map just bad and uninteresting for the players and even for the spectators. We have been able to see perfect examples of DM2’s defensive games just recently in the Ownage 1v1 tournament. Some people may have found those games exciting but I think the majority feels like they were just boring, CS’ish and bad.
Ownage is progressing nicely and we got some pretty neat games coming up.
Today we will cover winner bracket round6. Following (awesome!) games will be played:
[1] Gamer vs doris
[2] lbn vs -insane-
[3] Mutilator vs ParadokS
[4] gamaniel vs xalibur
Hello Oddjob!
For those unfamiliar with who you are, perhaps you can tell us a little bit of yourself?
Hi @ you.
I’m a former true quake nerd who played all day long for quite some time and I’ve been playing with tot since 1998.
Now neither me or my teammates play as much and we’re not that good either but its still alot of fun!
