"He was good," Aki said."....
A former classmate said... "The only thing which stands out is that Tim was always very good with weapons. He mainly shot air weapons firing plastic balls, but the house had several gun cabinets occupying square metres of walls, mainly air guns."
"He was a pretty good shooter. He used to shoot in a forest behind his house. Sometimes we'd have air gun battles in the summer."

"We took the site down for about an hour today to implement changes that allow us to now re-enable most statistics reporting. The one element of stats that we are not re-enabling immediately is the specific data tied to each individual frag (i.e. what weapon was used, what items you were carrying, who you fragged, etc.). We do however intend to re-enable these frag specific stats very soon after evaluating back-end performance. The only side effects of this specific set of stats being disabled is that you won't see weapon specific frag counts in your statistics page or in the individual game details views, and we've temporarily hidden about 25 of our more than 80 awards - these 25 relate specifically to individual frag statistics. If you had earned an award (prior to us disabling stats) that is now hidden, when we start reporting those stats again, your award will re-appear and you won't need to re-earn it."For the full announcement you can read the news on the QUAKE LIVE site.

..... the game is very good, in fact, it’s better than very good, at its height, its great and I haven’t been able to say that about a competitive game in some time. It feels refined and it bloody well should do, it’s been beta tested by most of the hardcore quake players from the last 10 years for many, many months. If it fails to take off, it may well be the last time iD comes knocking on the competitive players doors for feedback on their games. That said, last time they asked for our help, they ended up making a much better version of Quake 4 than Raven produced out of the box, so we have good history on our side.
