Time for another update.

2011-07-05T00:22:00.000-07:00

Well it has been a long time since my last update so here goes...

After trialing for a bunch of teams (most of which didn't cut it) I finally found myself a loving home.

Continuity seemed to have everything I was looking for in a team :

1. Stability (They have been around since season 7 and everyone get on with each other ...kinda)

2. Defiantly playing in Div4. After improving a great deal since I was cut from Good at last I needed to show them I was capable of playing div4 and this team looked like it would give me what I needed.

3. Awesome players. I have met some really nice guys who are really amazing at TF2.

We began training very regularly each night and entered the Wireplay tf2 season 8 and ETF2L season 9

we won our wireplay division and came 2nd in the overall playoffs. Which is really good :D. People began to notice us a little after this as we were beating teams that I had lost too before in previous teams. It was a amazing feeling of progression.

I also attended my first ever lan I42. It was amazing getting to meet some of the guys I've been speaking to for ages in the flesh. Getting to meet the Fleshlight guys who helped me out so much was really awesome. Looking forward to attending I43 with Continuity in August

However our ETF2L season 9 was not as successful as we would have hoped

We had the closest division out of all of div4. At the end we had the final between 2stronk. With our loss we ended up in 4th place just outside a medal position. This is disappointing however for us to do as well as we did in this season surprised us. Before the season we lost our pocket soldier due to exams and had to shuffle the roster around. That being said if we would have won that match we would have come first :D

This being said we have just finished a almost 3 week break from TF2 with our team mates enjoying the summer sun :)
A much needed break from TF2 to look back and asses our mistakes is invaluable.

My next step is to improve my fundamentals of the medic class and keep up with maincalling even though i am not the maincaller for Continuity after switching with our demoman. I don't feel how I felt after my first season of ETF2L. Being in a stable team environment means I am looking nowhere but up.

So here is looking forward to see were this team takes me.

Next stop div 3 :D

Woa ...

2011-01-18T05:58:00.001-08:00

Holy crap ..I haven't updated this thing for a very long time. Well it is 2011 now so I might as well tell you what has been going on.

First off The greater good is no more . That team died a long time ago leaving no support for the tf2 side. Therefore we decided to fold it. When that folded I took our best players at the time, Piggeh and Charizard, and merged it with an existing team good at last. We played the rest of the AFS and won divison 6 .

After that things got a little ugly. Good at last got rid of me because I was bad. This was when I decided to actually try and get good at this game as until that moment I was unaware of my lack of skill and understanding of the game. So i took the feeback from Good at last and got mentored up. Anyway after a while of studying how i play and improving my gamesense I decided to find a new team. I found a new one called Vuze gaming.

Vuze started off great. I had lots of fun and I felt I was improving a lot. However when 2 of our best players decided to move on from TF2 I noticed a steady decline in the teams motivation. This annoyed me quite a bit and sparked some tensions with other members of the team. SO i decided to call it quits on Vuze.

So this is where I am now..currently without a team and trailing for a new one.

This has covered almost half a year of time. Cool that I can condense it into smaller chunks.

UPDATE 2nd June 2010

2010-07-02T02:01:00.000-07:00

Well a lot has changed since the last update .

We have undergone growth within the team and have had to loose some members that were not willing to put more time in to improvement .

This is our new lineup :

Turbomonkey : Medic

Charizard : Everything

Piggeh : Scout

Horro : Solly

Dax : Solly

SUBS : Papercut Matty Cpt Failaim

We are searching for a new demoman .

Our summer league is going ....okay we have lost won match and drew another .

Still trying to get our tactics down on cp_obscure .

Here is a screen shot of our greatest victory :

Update

2010-06-01T14:17:00.001-07:00

We have been through a bit of a change recently .We have switched some people around and now here is our final main team :

Turbomonkey Medic

Horro : Scout

Matty : Scout

Dax/Hedghogs : Roamer Solly

Cpt Failaim : Pocket Solly

Savric : Demoman

Substitutes

Syndicate : /Sub/ scout

Random pipes : /Sub/ demo

MMCD : /Sub/ Scout

we have signed up for the summer season at ETF2L and have entered the ubercharge tournament ....we managed to get to the second round ...but only becuase we didn't have to play anyone and got a BYE .

We have to play Crack Clan in our second match so that should be fun =/

Finally here are some Screen shots of us winning for once

Time for another long awaited clan update .

New avatar :)

2010-06-01T14:02:00.000-07:00

2010-05-30T20:02:00.000-07:00

Now lets get in there and loose with dignity !

Also i would like to make a list of our Clan members youtube accounts .

Turbomonkey

Things have changed ...

2010-05-26T05:23:00.000-07:00

Well i haven't updated in a while so here it goes ..

Good news First :

We have 3 new members

Horro : Solly

Savric : Demoman

Syndicate : Scout

however with all good news comes bad news

Atrox decided to leave us ....kinda makes me upset i got along well with him

Oh well there is your update here is a screen shot of our first win in a while :)

New updates

2010-05-12T20:04:00.001-07:00

With every step we take it seems we are growing fast .

we have a few more new members :

Randompipe : Demoman

Rzye : Demoman

So we played a bunch of matches last week and this week .

WE FINALLY won 1 match :D

So we lost more than we won but that is just something we need to practice . I'm working on some team strategy's specifically on Badlands by watching some demos etc . Hopefully we should be able to come up with some tactics that work .

however i can say this i am very impressed with all of you .The old clan members who have come back are still as good as i remember you and the new members are just as dedicated .

We now have our own WAR sever from TTK

I'll post the IP later

So untill next time clan peace !

The clan is back :)

2010-05-07T17:42:00.000-07:00

Well T/B/C is dead .

However from the ashes has risen a new clan ...or should i say old clan . We went back to Tgg (The Greater Good)

http://www.thegreatergood.co.uk

The leader decided to forgive me and let us back in :)

Now we have the fun job of making a TF2 (Team Fortress 2) Division for the clan .This is because they are a Counter Strike Source clan and no one knows anything about TF2

Anyway i thought i would post the clan roster so far .

Turbomonkey : Medic

Cpt FailAim : Soldier

Marun : Soldier

Dax : Scout

Atrox : Scout

Tentacle : Demo / Medic

Nazay : Sub Solly / Sub scout

maybe MMCD will join us ? maybe ...we will see

We played our first Mix today just to get back into the swing of things

If you want to find TF2 Mixes use

#TF.war on IRC

Finally here are some pics of some public severs we dominated yesterday :)

Tune in text time :)

Update

2010-04-08T12:16:00.000-07:00

Hey people :) Haven't done one of these in a while . If you didn't know the clan collapsed . Mainly becuase of lack of funds to support the severs we had . Also College got in the way etc so never mind .

Took a break from PC gaming for a bit . But now im back :D .

I really missed TF2 and I'm still a little rusty but i will get back into the swing of things soon

Played a recent game and got top of the leader-board so not doing so bad :)
