I was in Vegas a few weeks ago, at a suite party, trying to get some srz bzns done, and I ran into this guy named Tom Colarusso. He was wearing a TF2 Pyro shirt. Now, regardless of the fact that he was dressed inappropriately for a swank party, I decided to approach him and make known that wearing a Pyro shirt in front of a bunch of my boys was akin to wearing red in Crips territory.
Short of launching into a Warriors-style free-for-all, we opted to take the battle online. Strong Words were spoken. Challenges were issued. The Icrontians rose up to the call of arms, and now we are publically calling you FiringSquad punks out (http://icrontic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81000). Bring it. Bring it to Dustbowl. Bring it to Gold Rush. Bring it to Badwater Basin. We're ready.
I'm calling out you personally, Dr. The Toolbag Colarusso. Put on your Pyro shirt, wipe the cheeto dust off your upper lip, and meet me in the game.
Do you guys even have your own server? It's okay, you can use ours (http://icrontic.com/forum/showthread.php?t=66997).http://forums.firingsquad.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.gif
So, get your "best" players together, and feel free to embarass yourselves in various ways.
Bring it http://forums.firingsquad.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.gif
Wow, get laid much?
I don't know who you think FS is, but TF2 players we generally are *not*. We're the forums for a tech website, about half the people there are old enough to be your father, and we rarely coordinate even our own multiplayer games... so yeah, I think most of us saw your "challenge" and met it with a laconic *yawn* Might want to research who you try to throw down with, cause if I chiseled a Pyro into the Lincoln Memorial you'd probably get your panties in a bunch and try to throw down with ol' Abe.

This is good though, Welcome to IC.

Speaking of research, that was me that posted - not NiGHTS.
Oh you have no idea! I would SO throw down with Lincoln!
Welcome to Icrontic, DP. You'll find that we are ALSO a hardcore tech community, our median age is between 25 and 34, and we are about the friendliest bunch of tech enthusiasts you'll find on the web.

If Abe wore a pyro shirt, it'd be on like Donkey Kong, or Michelle Kwan, or Charles Bronson.

Pump 'ya brakes, kid.
If you're not ready to handle us, that's fine, but no need to come here and make a fool of yourself in the process. It's a shame your community doesn't game together, it's certainly made ours stronger. Once we've rung out you boys (er, sorry, 'old men') in a TF2 match, maybe you'll come around and warm up to the idea.
...seriously, though, I think you've got the wrong impression here - this is in good fun.

I think there are about two regulars on the FiringSquad forums that you could really call hardcore gamers. The rest of us are mostly just tweakers, overclockers, system builders, and computer geeks who enjoy a bit of gaming too. :)
That said, I'd love to play some TF2, but sadly I am attempting to RMA my video card at the moment (no bullshit).
primesuspect
27 Jan 2009, 7:39pm
Wow, well that was a big misunderstanding on my part then. I was operating under the assumption that FiringSquad was "home of the hardcore gamer" ;) Either way, we're a big friendly bunch of adults who would love to play you guys in TF2 some day. Get a team going, it'll be great :)

Ditto for us. Can we file this as your admission that Icrontic is better at it?!

I'd be happy to join you on TF2. I was a pretty damn good Spy for a while, but I haven't played more than an hour over the past year so I can't say I'm any good any more. Look up "IKK|infamous" on the Steam group. Look me up on Steam and we'll talk. (http://tinyurl.com/b9qdq3)
Hit me up, I'm always looking for some casual TF2 fun :-)

Depends on how you define 'hardcore' I guess. Some of us measure our gaming e-Penis in other ways (http://www.bysmitty.com/misc/Collection-PCGames.jpg). :D
As I posted in the FS thread, I may not play your Tee Eff Too but I'll throw down in a point and click adventure game rumble any day. :rarr:
Nice to make you alls acquaintances.

I researched "primsuspect" the same way that I research potential spammers on our forums. Turns out the web is littered with posts by this guy shilling for some place called "Icrontic"
So...

FS is kind of a lame name for a tech site...that would like our name being omg hardcoer gaimerz but having one or two guys that doesn't puss out on a callout. Although the game collection is nice...
So has this turned into a bunch of faping or what.

He's a spy you can't be to sure of him. He'll do anything to stab you in the back.
