    Hi, My is EED_l33t35t, if you havent heard of me you MUST be crap. Bu teven the lamest of you will however have heard of my clan...EED. My other clan members go on about it a lot too.


    Bunny...Koopa....never heard of you....you must be crap....stupid Irish players with a stupid irish mentality......when will you ever realise that you're nobody till you play with a crap connection to england everyday ......and if your nice to me i could organise a few trials to my clan.....BTW thats EED for those in the cheap seats. Dont know if you'll cut the grade though. And what about this beast fella....if that is his real name. Id' beat him with keys only!!!

    To quote shinji
    Irish Quake players instead choose to battle each other constantly, a small pool of players

    funnily enough, thats why the standard of qw & q2 was higher in ireland, as there was a small bunch of fanatics and not too many poor players around. if you are continually playing against good players, it improves your gameplay. thats on an individual level, for clans, you need to play against as many different clans as possible.

    i've no doubt that with q3/ut it'll b the same, with cheap installs for isdn (and i think dsl is just around the corner atm, will know more next week) the number of lpb's in ireland will greatly increase. we've the choice of numerous isp's to get good cons to the uk and europe, there are no excuses anymore. yes sometimes you will lose games due to a dodgy nite of uk-ie cons, but thats life.

    and shinji, DK have achieved more than any other irish clan in the uk, they were the first clan to win something and at the moment, the only clan to win something. DzR look like they'll soon change that with the way they are playing in the UT leagues.

    Okay, I'm tired of clicking through 3 pages of irrelevent posts...starting a new topic, 'Ladder Suggestions', maybe this time postings will keep to it.

    Does anyone actually have any suggestions for the implementation of this ladder site section? I'd prefer some input from ALL of you people before I release it from my puter, rather than no-one having any input, (that would hardly be fair now, would it? *smile*).

    Ta...

    I must say I find this whole thread quite the laugh, quite the battle of the egos.
    As someone who playing none of the quake games, I can safely tell you that you're all completely unknown outside of you respective little ponds. Few people outside of quake will have ever heard of HIV, DZR, EED, CW, 4K, KOD, HC, etc etc, at least almost no-one I’ve ever talked to has.
    And that I would say the majority of online players aren’t that interested in knowing you either.

    Cop yourselves on people.

    Now I must go sharpen my Headmucher Axe of power.

    Mister 'EED_l33t35t'

    Say what you want to say, and dont be so lame and hide behind an alias.

    Rev - very true, outside of the quake community no one knows even what goes on, and would not know thresh if he bit them in the nose! Most ppl here would not know what all these punters like Doomer and Lakerman and all them even look like (cept if you met them at rapture or some event or another)

    Can I ask again that we all grow up and move on! QW is in the past, sorry, but it is! So lets stop fighting over how l33t something a year, 2 years and older are..

    Time to move on...to ladders maybe!

    I'm sure Irish players would play in the U.K. if they wanted to. I don't see anything stopping them. What's this all about? Are EEM that old Q2 clan? They aren't that well know are they? I thought they quit?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭El_Presidente


    This is getting a bit silly.

    Dev, I just realised I never responded about the ladder idea.

    I think its a great idea and will be playing in it from day 1. Also sorry for my part in derailing your post smile.gif

    Von: Your arrogance is quite amazing. You assume vast importance for Rapture (FYI, I did give that victory considerable coverage in the various mags I work for) when in fact, it was pretty much the last gasp of the near-dead QW scene. You trying to fling muck at me as a journalist because I wasn't present at an event which was only of interest to a very small minority of people in the first place just indicates that you are very, very out of touch with reality when it comes to what is and isn't big in the gaming scene. Then again, you're not alone in that amongst the people arguing here - a lot of whom (and you know who you are) didn't know who Blokey (winner of the UK CPL qualifier, much to XSReality's dismay - they had tagged ex-QW people to win, when in fact the top 3 places went to ex-Q2 players Blokey, Luke and Billox) was, didn't believe that the Barrysworld dialup was down...

    Rev. Hellfire raises the point that very few people outside the Quake/UT communities know of these clans and people at all. This is my point exactly - that is about to change. Mainstream games magazines are starting to get wise to regular coverage of online gaming, focusing on the key players and teams. GamePlay.Com (recently valued at over half a billion pounds, by the way) is working on a deal with Sky to broadcast important games and events live, possibly on Sky Digital. The prize money is getting bigger, the stakes are getting higher, and Irish players should be in on the ground floor if they're really as good as we all seem to think.

    Ja,
    Rob

    mebbe it wound be better if this whole thread was deleted, as its getting silly now with ppl reporting what ppl say on IRC, we all could spy on everyone on IRC and post ****e comments ppl say from ppl chatting up bots and downward!

    Just delete this and get the real discussion going on the new thread, the one about features for the ladders.
