In light of our inclusion in this years Quakecon festival, we have decided to share some of the products Logitech Australia have sent to us in our recent partnership with them. Perhaps people whom have never attended a Quakelive LAN tournament will enjoy reading my personal updates as we travel and experience the United States of America and the holy grail of Quake events, Quakecon 2010.
Tournament is DE. Entries close on the 8th of August. If in the end more then one person has made the same correct guess the prize will be given to the person who first correctly guessed
ehhh..... but qcon (traditionaly) is single elim innit........ that would mean that we really need to know the brackets before guessing?
because simply half of the finals are not theoretically possible (if you blindly guess before the playoff tree is known)
So is it ok if we guess after knowing the brackets?
hehe ye... well it's a somewhat educated guess, but also a bit of hope for an interresting tournament. I mean it would be really nice if stermy managed to finaly get a string of good luck rather than the bad luck that has played part in his previous tournaments.... and I think cypher is looking really strong (for lan play).
Just checking, how many keyboards are in the "prizepool"?
If I post the same predictions on both sites and QCon turns out as I predcited do I get 2 keyboards?
How come everybody is after Cooller like that ? I mean I'm not an oldschool Quake 3 follower so I never saw him won something important in years now. He does well but the glory comes from the past only ?
Urban dictionary showed me some definitions, including :
Man's man:
"A homosexual male who is inferior to his partner. Also called a b*tch or ho. Being a man's man is usually not positive. One is almost property of the superior man. The term could be used to describe a prison b*tch."
I guess that one wasn't the one you thought of ^^.
Anyway, I think no one can tell me why Cooller has so much fame. I'll have to draw conclusions by myself :-(.
I'm not an oldschooler myself but I think it was because he ruled everything back in the days (his list of achievements is huge) and having a tactical understanding that other players first acuired years later.
Almost. It's generally understood to be a genuine, 100% certified male who doesn't embarrass his fans by engaging in sissyish behavior.
So even if you didn't know anything about quake, that alone would be ample reason to be cheering frantically for him each time he's attending a tournament.
But without Natalie Tran, what is left for Australia? Mel 'Nazi' Gibson?
Well anyway, tell those cockatoo's and flying foxes I said 'wzzup'.
Maybe some satellite company can arrange light-transmitted data, so Australia can compete with the rest of the Quake world. If the sun can do it, without any real harm, why can't satellite companies?
No, I love China, because all the Christians in the world refuse to challenge them. U.S. Christians tyranically assaulted Vietnam and Korea, but have never made any approach to China. Russia isn't far off... regardless of the so-called cold-war which amounted to boy and girlfriend long-distance arguing.
There is nothing worse in humanity, than Christianity.
Well, Yu-Na and Natalie Tran might both be from places degraded by the United States, but it has nothing to do with my own personal relationships with anything. Christianity... used through and by the United States, is no different to me than Christianity used through\ Nazi Germany, Australia, the U.S., Britain or anywhere else. Call me a Jew, but I call myself a realist. There is nothing worse than Christianity.
I hope Australia, with its no 'small-tits' law... and also its law allowing people to rape each other, provided they are too drunk, will abandon such religious 'ideals'.
I would think Australia, being that most of the people are descended from criminals, would be more opposed to restrictive laws. You have to be careful with Christianity; it can quickly turn people into nazi's. According to Christianity, it's immoral to use marijuana, but moral to torture. What's immoral about marijuana, or any other drug? That it's of the physical world? That you can't take it with you into the next life? Well that's a bunch of crap. You can't take spoons with you into the next life. You can't take stoves, ovens, frying pans, baking sheets, cupcakes, water, oxygen, your own body, or practically anything. Does that mean everything is immoral? Well, according to Christianity - yes. And the only solution is to become Christian.
I completely fail to understand how people can support imprisoning each other, as if inflicting such a severe injury is somehow ok, while they also oppose the willing use of such innocuous substances like marijuana. Is it moral to stab someone? I don't see how there is much of a difference between stabbing someone and imprisoning them. Maybe if someone is trying to stab you, it makes it a little more ok to stab them, but marijuana users are not trying to stab anyone.
Well, i'm sure all the criminals in Australia will get their politics sorted out. I give you a hard time because I like you. Good luck at Quakecon.

Throughout history, you will find one recurring pattern: If you don't do what I say, bad things will happen. If you don't believe in God, you'll spend eternity in hell. If you don't invade Iraq, you'll get nuked. If you don't outlaw drugs, well, all sorts of bad stuff will happen. It's all about scaring the ignorant into doing what you want. If the ignorant are also faithful, they will trust that you are telling the truth, and therefore automatically do what you say out of a personal desire to avoid those 'bad' things.
It's a basic construct you would think humanity should have outgrown long ago. When your politicians are going through it again... 'if we allow small-breasts in pornography, all the men will become pedophiles', you should know that what they're saying is untrue and is merely being used to further their personal ambitions. In most cases, the bad things happen if you do what say, rather than if you don't.
strenx 3:2 av3k
edit: I don't see strenx on the list so in case he's not going, av3k 3:2 rapha.
edit2: wtf I don't see av3k either so in case neither strenx nor av3k are going, rapha 3:2 cypher!
