Wolf's Rain - Sad Moon
Ludovico Einaudi - Nuvole Bianche
Explosions In The Sky - Home
Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story - Soundtrack
The Fray - Never say never
Craig Armstrong - Glasgow Love Theme
[+] for songs I like

Fatal1ty/Cooller should totz do something like this for 1v1 (i.e. train some randomer)
He fails at his goal but still gets pretty good. I played pretty much everyday for 9 months but didn't get as good as him....makes me miss it though :((
bonus video: -- that 1:19 shot is ridiculous :o

UKers will know of these (although maybe not how many VODs are up), mainly sharing with others who like property shows.
*Note* If you're abroad and 4od says "appears you're not in UK" click something like "believe this is a bug" or some shit then use the post code B4 7ET. No proxy to find exact messages.
Property Ladder: This is about wannabe property developers. They buy houses cheap then renovate/extend & try to sell at a profit. Since most are newbs they tend to make mistakes/overspend on their budgets. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/property-l.../37032-015
Grand Designs: Castles, churches, barns, unique designs (like them German slot together buildings). High budget developments, sometimes to sell on but often to keep as their own house. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/grand-desi.../54408-001
Location, Location, Location: People being helped to find a house for them to move to. They narrow down & show them 4-5 houses that match their criteria (budget, location, rooms etc). http://www.channel4.com/programmes/location-l.../51943-001
Unless this decision gets reversed then I've played my last game of QL tonight.
We had around 60 people playing PQL-esque CTF regularly spread over 2 servers. People of differing skill levels trying to balance out teams where people actually knew one another's abilities despite them being public servers & not pickups. Now this has all been wiped out with one update.
All that's left is to spam ESR & wait for UT Live

This shit is driving me crazy. I've seen a few companies/hacker groups where the original founders gave themselves some werid job title.
like Supreme Ruler / Eternal Ruler
but I can't find the answer off google (wtf)...does anybody know what the title is & who's said it? I keep thinking open source for some reason.

a coach reversed in the middle of the road, causing a rear-end collision with a semi-trailer where it rolled over on its side. According to preliminary information, the semi-trailer truck had one death and one injured, while multiple people on the coach were injured and have already been taken to the hospital. The scene was exceptionally horrific. Both the semi-trailer and the coach overturned on their sides in the middle of the highway, among which, the semi-trailer driver died at the scene and over 10 passengers on the tour coach were tossed out, splayed across the road.

As a subpar player I'm finding it difficult to find good matches in QuakeLive servers (either 1700 or 1050). Sadly, the faceit ladder doesn't seem to be active either.
What I want is an ability to search for players within a certain ELO range (1300-1400, or 1280-1350) that have played a game in the last week.
The first player in my profile list hasnt played for over 1 year as is the case for most around me. With the option to search only active players I could add them to my list then ask for 1v1s more easily.
Also: the ctf rank page o: but mainly just the 1v1 elo search~
What features do you want?

Does quakelive allow this? I know people making trick jump movies would somehow script bots actions in Q3...is this possible in QL?
Anyone know any good guides for it?
edit: anyone know the names of any trickjump movies where the tricks were scripted?

Syncerror is such an epic troll. Campercrossings has been premium only forever and now he's taken japanese castles, industrial accident (best) and spidercrossings all in 1 rotation. The only good map left now is Finnegans (not tried Fluorescent) but spaceCTF homos have all moved to skyward)
Do me a favour and make campercrossings & industrial accident free maps next rotation, and delete all space maps from quakelive, thanks.

I carried an 8kg dell pc to China and its fucking shit; "HDTV" VD/BBT episodes wont even play (5fps) and streaming is so-so too. need to buy parts for a custom build.
im wondering what kind of spec is capable of SC2?
RAM?
CPU?
GFX?
prices are cheaper in china...e.g. AMD Athlon II X4 631 = 50quid (70quid on ebay). Is this cpu any good?
AMD phenom II X4 970 = 89quid
halp
xoxo
edit: £250-300 budget
For lolz...my current spec:
P4 2GHz
1GB RAM
Intel 82845G gfx
With DreamHack starting tomorrow I've managed to grab mikes for an interview ahead of his TDM matches with DengiOnline.com. Obligatory snippet:
What do you think of the new TDM maps in the DreamHack map list? mikes: We didn’t play Purgatory much, but I think this map is good. Dreadfull Place is ok, but for me it is worse then oldschool ones. DM20 is small and stupid one, though considering current trend with CPM style in QL, it just suits this game well.
With DreamHack Summer 2011 just a few days away I was able to get an interview with strenx, juven1le and ZeRoQL with strenx also discussing the 1v1 tournament. Here's a snippet:
What do you think of the new TDM maps in the DreamHack map list?
juven1le: couldnt have asked for a better mappool. some players have more experience then us on older maps so new maps fits us good. ZeRoQL: yes i agree with juvi babeeeh :D i think they are awsome! ;D we can ninja them easy ;) strenx: I think the same
- All games are played on German servers
- 3 rounds with each server containing 10 players followed by the finals.
- 50% of players progress each round (80, 40, 20, 10).
- Each round is best of 1 except the finals where 4 maps will be played with the overall points tallied (10pts for 1st, 8pts for 2nd etc).
- Players must be in the IRC channel before the tournament begins.
So I'm making a QL/3 rip off for uni and need a map to use...I've imported dm3 (http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/59/dm3d.png) but the doors are too small when i jump & if i scale it up the roof comes off...
any other q3 maps with no jumppads/teles besides dm3 & dm1?
edit: RA3/CPM maps...tried all the standard maps
edit: other small maps (tdm/ctf) should be ok if no jumppads/teles...the dm maps have pretty narrow/small doorways

So Barca-Arsenal are playing tomoz & i wanna watch...what is the best site to look at for links since http://atdhe.net/ got closed down <insert usa hate>

where do I find the health & armour icons (yellow ones for the player...not those in spectator mode for item timings)...looked in bin & the pak files but cant find them =(

Take Two Interactive has recently announced that they have secretly been working on Duke Nukem Forever and that it will be released next year on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K (Take Two subsidiary) states that:
After a hiatus from the video game world, Duke Nukem is back and better than ever. The return of the King from the glory days of shooters will satisfy our patient, die-hard fans, as well as a new generation of bubble gum-chewing, flat top and shades-wearing bad-asses. Make no mistake about it - Duke Nukem Forever is a testament to the era of when shooters were bodacious and fun.
A demo of the game is currently playable at the Penny Arcade Expo (2K Booth). Check out their website for the full announcement.

So I failed miserably at trying to stream UT2004 matches after nVc wouldn't (</3) because whenever I up'd the detail slightly I got 10-20fps and it seemed to slow down. What's the shittest part of my pc? All shit? One part is ok? Pimp my PC yo...£100 limit on a part (it just seems crazy to spend 3 digits on a piece of plastic/metal).

After weeks of trying I was finally able to track down and interview the Quake legend that is Anton "Cooller" Singov. During the interview he gives his thoughts on the years passed as well as QuakeLive. Here's a snippet:
You lost vs Avek at Dreamhack this year but did not play like your usual self. What do you think is the reason for you losing this match? Cooller: Alltimes we try to find reasons. Let me say the luck was on his side this day.
Thanks to iNkind, Aaron and skint for suggesting questions and to Cooller for agreeing to the interview.
The full interview can be read in our articles section.

With 3D Realms going bust and subsequently finding themselves in court against publishers Take Two due to Duke Nukem Forever living up to its name; the people at Wired have written an article detailing what went wrong with the developers at 3D.
By the end of 1999, after blowing several publicly proclaimed release dates, Duke Nukem Forever was nowhere near completion. Half the weapons were still just sketches, and when a new version of the Unreal engine was announced — one designed for live, multiplayer online battles — once again Broussard opted to upgrade.
