I wish I understood the desciption. It's in some sort of machine code

alchemist is our oracle of modern times

"noBap and unkind prepared for wcg together, and were in great shape going into the tournament. Lexer won QC2002, and this demo is from the first round of wcg2002russia (this zip contains an OSP multiview demo).

http://www.cyberfight.ru/site/polls/?topic_id=153 -> here is a poll from before the match. The day before, Polo laughed and said no player was in real great form at quakecon , noBap will win..."

I propose we make a rule that the first person to post on a alchemist demo has to make a translation.

"The day before, Polo laughed and said no player was in real great form at quakecon, noBap will win..."

hmm good work...

intuition man =/

will you have my babies?

nice to see this game again

Yet another great alchemist description!

i told him he should write poetry and he got mad
im pretty serious about that, though

I would definately buy an Alchemist poem book if he ever made one!

i'd buy 3
one for myself, mail one to lexer, and one in a safe deposit box so that future generations may know of the awesomeness that is broken, yet poetic english

Cold frost and sunshine: day of wonder!
But you, my friend, are still in slumber--
Wake up, my beauty, time belies:
You dormant eyes, I beg you, broaden
Toward the northerly Aurora,
As though a northern star arise!

Recall last night, the snow was whirling,
Across the sky, the haze was twirling,
The moon, as though a pale dye,
Emerged with yellow through faint clouds.
And there you sat, immersed in doubts,
And now, - just take a look outside:

The snow below the bluish skies,
Like a majestic carpet lies,
And in the light of day it shimmers.
The woods are dusky. Through the frost
The greenish fir-trees are exposed;
And under ice, a river glitters.

The room is lit with amber light.
And bursting, popping in delight
Hot stove still rattles in a fray.
While it is nice to hear its clatter,
Perhaps, we should command to saddle
A fervent mare into the sleight?

And sliding on the morning snow
Dear friend, we`ll let our worries go,
And with the zealous mare we`ll flee.
We`ll visit empty ranges, thence,
The woods, which used to be so dense
And then the shore, so dear to me.

haha

thanks!

so you're that alexander pushkin?

I wonder why did lexer quit Q3. He was the most talented player Ive ever seen and he definately could be a long-time #1.
Not that I dont like cypher, jibo or rapha, I just miss lexer and his originality and intelligence.

he lost motivation for play on some level... his style was all CREATIVE and originals - without interest and motivation that isn't working... and yes his style was very intellegent... and cfg too =) sens 2 accel 2... ()
now i see his features in rapha's style and nike (he is not overrated)

he did play PK and then Q4 for a short period, right?

yep

if q4 weren't such a piece of shit, i might reinstall it and watch some demos

I met two russians in qlive duels both who claimed to be lexers friends. One said he made money from poker and lives in bali - the other "he took a family".

I don't think his style or sens/accel set up would go very far in the way modern q3 is played - at least in cpma lg xerp fest but he was a remarkable player so who knows.

cypher uses high accel like that i believe, rapha does too

lexer was sens 2 accel 2 pitch 0.018 yaw 0.016 m_filter 1 in_mouse 1 on logitech mx500 with xp accel fix defaut xp drivers...spoke to him on irc years ago about it. I dont think he ever changed that in q3. He only changed his grip playing almost sideways.

Rapha is sens 4 accel .5 not sure what pitch/yaw values but I'd guess high enough maybe 0.02 for both or around that.

Cypher seems to be sens 5 accel 0.1 with yaw and pitch both at 0.018. Cyphers mousing looks very fast for those values but its mainly due to a light mouse and big pad I would speculate - if the newer wmos are indeed 450DPI it makes it more feasible otherwise he can sure throw his mouse around perfectly for the 360s ive seen him do with a fairly low accel value. What I'd really like to know with these modern accel users is if they use the higher hz on mouse now. Jibo uses high accel yet has m_filter off whilst most have it on. Mice use to act odd with accel at 125hz.

AFAIK I only remember unkind ever using a sens 2 accel 2 style similar to lexers but that was for a short time and he was at his best with something like rapha uses. sens 4 accel .5 pitch and yaw 0.02 but with logitech drivers which totally changed the feel and "precision " of the mouse..
