Nope, that's the alternative spelling which was introduced in the middle of the 20th century, iirc.

edit: How come you've got only one "h" in your profile? Did you made a mistake in spelling there or did you mean the second "h"? Because I thought we were talking about "Jonathan" vs "Johnathan."

Yeah, I'd much rather like to see an interview with players like noctis, spartie, or fazz. But, you've got to admit that this particular interview with Fatal1ty was one of the most interesting ones.

so whats next for you fat
"just going to continue traveling and promoting my brand...you know....boring interviews etc...."

if you've seen one then you've basically seen them all....they all seem so vapid, show some personality ffs...

and before anyone that actually knows him tries to be like "oh hes awesome! u just havent met him blah blah" ya no shit...that's the problem...he comes off as a complete "tow the corporate line" and "play it safe" shill.

surprised none of the hatas have picked up on the fact he said the quakelive netcode is the same as q3 1.17, or am i mistaken and he said something else?

Yeah, he said everything after 1.17 just felt shit and 'choppy' (yes, he said that). "blah blah 1.25 really sucked blah blah" "I love the QL netcode which is basically the same as the old q3 one"

the 2 comments on that page..one of them says hes "commercial".

fat is hardcore loyal to gaming like nobody ive ever seen. he goes out and promotes it. how many other people do that as much as he does? none. if the other pros would get involved instead of just going to comps playing then going home something might happen.

you cant rely on companies to push gaming..they are only in it to push their products and make money...they couldnt care less about the games or the gamers.

sometimes pros even need to kick game makers in the ass...like for the hitbox lag thing in QL...and every other problem id doesnt seem interested in fixing >_<
