UWE! Still my favourite za Q3 player. Remember watching (reading? - scorebot) his game at one of the CPL q3 comps against Fatality

:D Serpoes :D

q3 legends? beat them all :P

what's with the unibrows?

some people don't give a shit what others think? =]

why is South Africa known as ZA?

because its Zuid-Afrika in their language. not everything goes via american shitlanguage.

ah i see. thanks. didn't know that.

a mindzless attempt to pointlessly rip on evilAMERIKA.

you meant English.

hehe, nice

english and american are two different languages :) some words are different in spelling.

American (language) is bastardized English (language). It's not a different language but more like a 'local' dialect ;P

American is also English. It's not British English, but English nonetheless.

i'll put it this way, who called South Africa, "South Africa", first? English people or evilAMERIKA?

*psst* here's a hint, NOT evilAMERIKANS CAUSE evilAMERIKA WASN'T ESTABLISHED AS AN "ENGLISH" SPEAKING NATION WHEN ENGLISH PEOPLE STARTED CALLING THAT COUNTRY SOUTH AFRICA (nor did the "shit" evilAMERIKAN "bastardization" exist yet).

in fact, you're better off blaming the DUTCH for going in there and raping the place first, then inviting the Brits in to start naming shit as they pleased.


too many kids brainwashed into propogating the BLIND HATE.

I think you're reading too much into that comment. Noone said anything about 'raping the place first'.

He just needed an excuse to state the 'fact' that American English is 'bastardized' English.

i didn't derive the "raping" part from his comment. was my own interjection. perhaps you shouldn't read so deeply into my comments!

If only New York was still called New Amsterdam...

there'd be weed everywhere... oh wait!

Which one? There's 11 official languages in SA ;)
My first guess was Afrikaans but the country's name is 'Republiek van Suid-Afrika'.
I did some research and my second guess is that 'ZA' comes from 'Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek' ('South African Republic' also known as 'Transvaal Republic') - a country that ceased to exist at the beginning of 20th century and is now a part of Republic of South Africa. So it would seem that the origin of 'ZA' comes from Dutch and not from 'their' language.

OTOH the domain 'SA' is used by Saudi Arabia :)

Yeah I was bored ^_^

3 claps for you :)
