Ok guys, loading up my UT now so you all can take turns kicking my butt...at least until I have had some practice (first time player), then, nobody's safe.
I've been giving topherice the benefit of the doubt here, and assuming he was referring to the friendly competition between our countries during the UT matches.
toph, old buddy, I do think your comment could use a little clarification...
I'm not all ticked off or anything, (I'm giving the other comments the benefit of the doubt as well), but I would hate to see this turn into something more than good-natured ribbing.
We have a sad anniversary coming up in two weeks. Let me just finish my comments by saying that the overwhelming sentiment in the US is that we feel damn lucky that there are so many other countries willing to come to our aid at a time we need it. There have been many brave British (and Canadian) troops who have paid the ultimate price in doing so, some of them due to extremely unfortunate mistakes made by those who are indeed very grateful for their support. I don't know that we should be joking about it.
:usflag: :ukflag: :canflag:
Yes, you're right mate. I apologise if I offended anyone. It was not my intention to make light of recent tragic events. I suggest we carry on without topical references, and base our comments solely on our own community and their skills, this side of the atlantic and the other.
That being said... You yanks can't shoot for s***! You wouldn't know a plasma rifle from a flak canon.
Just to clarify, I was just talking $hit 'bout UT. Hell, as of late you Brits are the only true Allies we have. I spent 4 yrs. in the US Army (3rd AD and 82nd CML CO) and 8 yrs. as a Reservist (278th Armored Cavalry Regiment and 234th Signal Battallion), and would never talk that kind of $hit about Allied troops. WTF. Now that we've got that out of the way... Prepare to be Pwnd in the Tourney.
Tried it but don't really like it, maybe it's the speed vs. n00b factor on the addaboy server but I've gone back to good ol' HL.
Thx to whomever deleted those extra posts, the thread wouldn't go through and I hit the button a few times in frustration and then had to leave the office. :banghead:
Tiribulus said Waddaya mean exactly? UT is too fast for your taste?
>>>--Tiribulus->:D
Have you played on the Addaboy server? They set the speed on overdrive, not exactly a good starting point for learning the skills of the game. I could however play on regular servers and learn the game but that takes more time than I have, besides, with Half-Life2 coming out, who cares.
I must confess I like it faaaaaaassst>>>>>>>>>. However if you haven't played alot if could be a little overwhelming especially if you're challenging experienced guys used to the speed. It's get a little frustrating when your main activity is respawning into a looney bin of maniacs flying around all over, especially with low grav and tight air control. I'm not the greatest player around, but I have a reasonable collection of "YOU'VE WON THE MATCH" screens. BTW are we talking UT or 2003 here?

Edit- Oh, now it has.
Thanks Prof!!!!

Good to see that the US-Canada mail connection works. Of course, you should never send a boy Shorty to do a man's job.
(Bet those customs agents are having fun with the "lost" discs, huh?)
It has to make one wonder. :banghead:
Really face paced game and will take some getting used to but with a little practice I should be able to hold my own.
Cya on the server boys.
That my friend sucks. I do appreciate your effort buddy.
BTW - Is there a scheduled tourney coming up?
You're not bad, TBonZ. Of course, next to me no one is...:banghead:
**Cough** Cough** Yeah okay... **cough** **cough** whatever... friendly fire queens.**cough** **cough**
NS
LMAO!
