TFTs...what do you look for thats meant to mean theyre good for gaming?

So December has come and the countdown to Christmas has begun. To get in the festive spirit I have an awesome drama I recommend watching; Last Christmas.


The first episode is shit but after that it's awesome...I recommended it to my friend & it became his favourite show too....it is so feelgood that it would even make daryl feel momentarily happy. Sound track is epic throughout getting you in the festive spirit. Best of all it can be downloaded on IRC at your maximum download speed if it's quiet (I get 2.4mb/s regularly).

If none of this has convinced you then you should know that this is an AGP sanctioned drama, enjoy.

Steps to download
1. Go here
2. Type /msg [SARS]Phylene xdcc send #178
you may have to allow the files on dcc
3. Repeat 2. until you reach #188 (included)


edit: ok speed torrent

or theres a torrent but its probably slower

Alternatively you can get the torrent here. At least watch 2 episodes before deciding whether to continue or not as the first episode is shit but needed for introduction.

As the ESRGPA (ESReality Gaming Professionals Assocation) we have decided to give our members the chance to decide our rules, laws and legislation. Should Streetrunner be allowed to post AGP "news" on this site at the rate of a sad person on Twitter?

Over at ClanBase a few UT2004 1v1 players have been interviewed in regards to the current UT2004 DM OpenCup Fall 2009 cup. Here's a snippet:

Dird: You don't think Aerowalk is a ridiculously terrible map in UT2004 compared to the Quake versions?
Joky: In my opinion, i don't think so. Cause we all know that UT2004 is fast game, on some maps VERY FAST, looking on scores between 2 player on few maps could be more faster. Aerowalk is map where you can show some of your skills if you ask me, cause there you don't have so much time to think, you can be killed from anywhere because of those portals which are making map so fast and because map is small! But in quake? That map is other story...

So I had some dodgy talk about primary/alternative paths & they gave some dodgy primary path...surely the best path is:

1. water in kettle + boil
2. get cup
3. put teabag + sugar +spoon in cup
4. pour water
5. stir + squeeze teabag with spoon (WTF at this "wait 2 minutes" crap)
6. insert milk
7. If too white then squeeze some more
8. Remove teabag + spoon then go drink

Try it. Will make your tea taste way better fo sho

With one week left to go until signups close, you still have time to enter the ClanBase Cup(s) of your choice for the Fall 2008 season. A number of FPS games have been given OpenCup competitions in various gametypes. Unreal Tournament 3 even has a EuroCup for TDM! Good news for all 17 players...

EuroCup
Unreal Tournament 3 4v4 TDM

OpenCups

To see the rest of the cups available, read the ClanBase news item.

Multi-gaming clan Serious Gaming have announced that one of their players and the defending ESWC champion Av3k will not be attending the Grand Finals in San Jose due to visa problems.

Here is an exert from their news post:

Today became clear defending world champion Maciej 'Av3k' Krzykowski will not be able to attend ESWC 2008. After several attempts to get a visa to the United States and be able to participate in ESWC 2008, his final desperate try failed today.

The full news post can be read on their website.

basZ, Manager at Serious Gaming had this to say:

Its difficult for me to judge the situation from here. Av3k had to renew his visa, and thought it would not cause any problems. Unfortunately things went different then hoped and expected. This is a blow for the ESWC tournament, it loses a great competitor full of ambition to defend his title.

In the build up to the ESWC Finals in San Jose a number of the participants have agreed to answer a number of questions for us. See the additional pages for the individual interviews...

Thanks go out to those who have agreed to do the interviews.

Michal "Carmac" Blicharz of SK Gaming has released footage of a presentation taking place on stage before the Quake Live 1v1 finals at Quakecon.

The footage includes Vo0 chatting up an unknown girl and another girl giving away a bra in exchange for a ticket for a prize draw. It also shows Cypher being told he has to wait until it's all done as well as how the MCs have no idea about the Quake Live tournament that took place or previous Quakecons.

It's worth a watch so make sure you check it out.

Carmac has also written up his thoughts on the event over at SK Gaming.

Exerpt:
"The finalists sat tired and hungry, and jetlagged in the case of Cypher, as this dragged on for three hours while Hollenshead and Stratton took their sweet time entertaining the public."

Whens it gonna be? I wanna play it already. Someone invite me :(

[quote=fags]The win marks the first time that the CGS trophy has been awarded to a British team.[/quote] -- out of a total of TWO WHOLE SEASONS!

Also: who the fuck is Mingzhi Deng...doesnt sound very british

...Zettai Kareshi. It's a new Japanese Drama & I love it! It even includes a fight between two robots/humanoids!


Those interested can go on irc.rizon.org (#sars-fansubs) and download the eps as it's much faster than torrents (1.4mb/s here). IRC episode reference numbers found here: http://www.sars-fansubs.com/index.php?cont=ircbots
or you can just type !zk1 - !zk10 in the channel i think (not sure if it works with the earlier eps)

Those not interested, FO!

Following his recent victory in the Play.com duel tournament, 4K^Hypno agreed to spend some time answering my questions for the ESR community! The interview can be found on the next page.

Excerpt:

Before the grand finals you and kiLLu agreed to break up the prize money with £5,000 going to the runnerup...do you now regret this decision?

I don't, I played my match much more relaxed and I managed to play much better that way, kiLLu deserves to get money aswell, he was a really good player in this tournament.

My Happy New Year wish for you
Is for your best year yet,
A year where life is peaceful,
And what you want, you get.

A year in which you cherish
The past year’s memories,
And live your life each new day
Full of bright expectancies.

I wish for you a holiday
With happiness galore;
And when it’s done, I wish you
Happy New Year, and many more.

What are your new years resolutions then? :o mine's to learn to play pachelbel's canon in d!

Just got the complete (atm) up series \o/ for those of you who havent heard of it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_Series

It's pretty interesting watching them develop over several years but seeing the changes in a few hours e.g. watching neil's perspectives change from his school days to the point where he's hitchiking from place to place living off benefits.

First two weren't that good but it starts to get interesting when they're 21 and up.

I'm uploading them to google video:

Here's a list of common symptoms to watch out for:

1. Lying about how much time is spent online.
2. General decrease of physical activity and social life.
3. Neglecting obligations at home, work, or school to spend time online.
4. Spending too much money on computer equipment or Internet activities.
5. Feeling a constant desire to be online when they're away from the computer.
6. Going online to escape real world problems.
7. Disregarding the emotional or physical consequences of being in front of a computer all day.
8. Denial of the problem.

1st 2 songs are getting played shit loads atm

Thought i'd post this due to the UK vs US finals coming up soon and many of you may not of seen something like it before.

It's a $10,000 2v2 MC tournie. 6 teams of two from the USA and 6 teams of two from the UK (1 dropped out) battled it out over 1 day. Each team played each other twice and the top pair from each country will go head to head in Las Vegas soon for all or nothing (the way all tournies should be).

All the battles can be found here: http://www.jumpoff.tv/2on2wrc2006.php

The ones worth watching are battles that include:
US
thesaurus/illmaculate

UK
stig/respek ba
possessed/whashisface

The rest are pretty shit. The earlier the better (WK1 onwards) since they started losing steam further through (battled for like 14 hours or something).

thesaurus/illmaculate won the US side.
possessed/whashisface won the UK.

Who do you think will win the finals? :o

funny tbh ;o
The stuff is thought of off the top of their heads, gotta be a crazy quick thinker to think of stuff like this there n then, especially coz theyre multi's. key thing to look out for is how they flip (make a comeback) particular stuff the other guy jus said.
wat u think?
