signing up

play 1.6 imo, as i say alot of people would need to get the patches and such for source... more easy. and were used to 1.6 :P:)

I think I'll vote 1.6 aswell, not that I'm going to be playing, but it seems to be the lowest common denominator. And Source dedicated servers are resource-whores for some reason (physics).

Apocalypse101 · 19-09-2005 4:56pm

Dont care what version it is. sign me up!

Caliden · 19-09-2005 6:06pm

dont think theres a ghetto russian version for source and they have changed so many commands i dont think the 1.6 server ones will apply.

just my 2 cents

Dundhoone · 19-09-2005 7:56pm

I lack conviction

interested if its source

DRakE · 20-09-2005 1:07am

Don't you mean Shinners?

Personally I don't think it's feasible to run a CS:Source compo, the Source dedicated servers are whores. It may just be a crappy linux port though.
Considering HL2DM was running at about 90% of a 2Ghz AthlonXP on binary with only about 8 ppl on it whereas CS1.6 serverload was negligible....
Must do some testing with binary and stewie (Windows hl2ds vs. Linux hl2ds).
I can only hope they've improved it.

Apocalypse101 · 20-09-2005 7:04pm

LOL, just noticed that Caliden has voted on the CS poll 4 times.....
just thought it was worth bringin up, since source was winning before he did it

CS 1.6, good base for competitions

Will probably have CS:Source by the time of the lan but not sure about how easy it will be with steam.

Is CSS in the CPL?

http://www.thecpl.com/winter2005/

Worth a click, there is even a cool CS tune made out of the music in the game.
CSS is not good for competitions. Its still buggy and can be unfair sometimes. There eventually will be a CSS pro or something which may be in competitions. But as of yet the Counter-strike community still play 1.6

We should have HLTV and stats set up for 1.6

This is the most crooked display of Voting/organising i've ever seen :mad: (not really..)
i like it!!

but if ye were any good at all ye'd have "convinced" every1 to like 1.6 better, instead of just outright rigging it. 100,000,014 voters...

There have been various theories, but the one that seems most plausible is that it comes from the Greek monogram for Jesus, IHS or IHC. This is formed from the first two letters plus the last letter of His name in Greek (the letters iota, eta, and sigma; in the second instance, the C is a Byzantine Greek form of sigma). The H is actually the capital letter form of eta, but churchgoers who were unfamiliar with Greek took it to be a Latin H.
The oath does indeed seem to be American, first recorded in print at the end of the nineteenth century, although around 1910 Mark Twain wrote in his Autobiography that the expression had been in use about 1850 and was considered old even then. Its long survival must have a lot to do with its cadence, and the way that an especially strong emphasis can be placed on the H.

Nineteenth-century Americans weren’t the first to take the Greek letters to be Latin ones—since medieval times the monogram has often been expanded into Latin phrases, such as Iesus Hominum Salvator, Jesus Saviour of Men, In Hoc Signo (vinces), in this sign (thou shalt conquer), and In Hac Salus, in this (cross) is salvation.
