Grats on Naruto ZD

Hey all! I'll drop into the Source server one night. Talk to everyone soon

Hey all, The newbs won't know who I am, the old schoolers will Just dropping a hello and good to see the community so strong as it always has been. Its been quite a long time since I peaked in here and thought why not say hello! Finishing up my final semester of college, student teaching currently and will be graduating with a BS in Math Education in May. Hope all is going well for all of you and I WILL make it out to Fragfest one year. I PROMISE Hello fatty, mags, cong, goot, and any other old skool people who remember me from way back and still frequent this site

Even I have to make a random pop in for this one. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTERS Sup homey TeK

Just killed KT with my guild last week. Naxx was super fun.

I splurged and ordered the 20.1 Widescreen model. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16824116381 I figured I would go the extra 100 bucks and get the larger model...I saw it in compusa and was awed at the quality of the LCD. Went ahead and ordered it this morning so hopefully I'll get it Wednesday. As always thanks for the insight from everyone, still miss playing with everyone =|

Hey Guys /wave Lunk, have u had any success with the monitor? Recently, the 21inch crt I bought is starting to go I think...the blue microsoft bar at the bottom is starting to distort color and look purple and last night my screen became really messed up and tilted. I looked at the 3 monitors posted from newegg everyone posted here and each one looks just as nice, While I'm used to the 21inch, going down 2 inchs won't hurt me for a high quality LCD monitor. I've had a viewsonic CRT before I bought the 21inch crt and never really had problems with it so I'm sure its pretty good quality. Are there any other suggestions? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16824116375 Thats a 2ms monitor, costs more, Why? I'm sort of nooby at the monitor thing. Also, those are all 19in, are there any larger LCD's that are good money for quality? 20 or 21in possibly, I'm sure they are equally as more expensive but just curious as to if there are any other decent LCD's out, time to get rid of the CRT.

I have source I just don't have time to play because my time is consumed with WoW =[

This was one of the funniest things I ever heard when it started showing up on the internet. There were clips of him at ony, ragnaros, and razorgore. All of them were hilarious especially the rag one. If you play the game and have done the encounters everything he says is so true. So funny

It's an enjoyable game and one of the most popular in a long time. It was my firsy MMO and I didn't how I was going to like it but I gradually started enjoying it. But end-game content gets really boring if you don't get into a high-end raiding guild. Start off at MC with a small guild and start getting geared up then gradually start talking to the high end guilds, at times they open up recruitment so try to get in. It's time consuming though so be prepared to spend a lot of late nights playing leveling. GL HF Currently play on Mug'Thol alliance 60 gnome lock in a high end raiding guild.

Just dropping by and giving a big hello to everyone whom I remember, mag, fatty, and so many others I just can't think of. There seems to be so many new faces around here and old faces alike. It's been close to a year since I have really frequented the forums like I once did. Seems like the community is booming and lots of friends are being made. Also notice u guys have fragfest coming up, which I might make an appearence at :x For those of you who don't know me, I started around this community in 2002, back in the old Mmmm days, I got banned a few times :x , had lots of confrontations with admins etc.(Doesn't everyone ) but all around liked playing here so kept coming back. Seems as though a lot of the people aren't around ne more that I remember so to the newbies, HELLO, and keep within the community and enjoy the friendships u make here. Just dropping the hello because I didn't fall of the face of the earth, just school has been crazy, graduating in a year with my degree in math education and classes have gotten tougher so hope to see some of you around soon in the servers Hi to all the newbies and oldies I've played with over the years.

Awesome stuff Zeab. Chrom is an acomplishment. Such a long and boring encounter. Fight easily takes 20 mins cause he has like 32195623956325 hp. Kepp at it at nef, u'll learn a working strategy soon enough. It's easy once u understand whats happening. GL on nef, be happy when u beat him and claim your phat lewtz. Hope your BWL lewtz are better than ours because we have yet to see a pair of Nem robes =[ in our 15 or 20 or so nef kills. Bloodfang and stormrage seem popular though! We have gotten 2 staffs of shadow flame, 1 ashkandi, about 20 boots of shadowflame, 15 prestors talismans of connivery, No Lok'amirs =[, no Crul'rushk edge of chaos. We have terrible nef loots its ridiculous.

Currently training for Quake 4 since its the CPL World Tour game this year.

voodoo, hes been playing FPS games since back when CPL had just started and quake 3 was the popular game. He's been playing games now for about 5-6 years and making a living doing so. Has computer products out branded by him(Motherboars and sound card come to mind). Makes a full time salary playing. Made over $232,000 last year in CPL tournaments alone(Not including salary and money paid for his computer products). As far as online, video-gaming I feel he is #1 in the US. Other people may think differently. World is a different level. Its tough when you want to judge who the #1 person is when you have a team game like CS where any team can win any time. It's also 5 players. How can you judge whose the #1 gamer in the world, in 2003 I would have said SK.swe since they won every major tournament that year. But since then times have a changed and things are different. I had the chance to travel to China last year and was able to meet him and speak to him on a down to earth basis. He's a very nice guy and you can joke around with him a lot. Didn't seem full of himself or too big that your not on his level. It's personal opinion , and btw hi everyone who haven't spoke to in a long time :x .

Update on my end. Everything on farm in MC and BWL. Nefarion dropped our pretty brand new staff of shadowflame(1st on alliance side on our server) last week. Went to an over-powered warlock lol And gunman, theres nothing wrong with giving brutality to a hunter, infact most hunters will use that regularly. It doesn't compare though to the axe drops in BWL like crush'rol off nef and Doom's Edge off random trash in bwl which are way better for hunters. I'm a lock and despise hunters cause of the sheer amount of burst damage in about a 3 second spam(Aimed, multi, and some other ability I don't know, dead) not to mention they have pets which severely limits my abilities cause I can't get a spell off. This is due to hunters having 7/8. 8/8 dragonstalker which is so overpowered, and the crossbow of broken(Or the real name, Ashjre'thul:Crossbow of Smiting). Face it, weapons are becoming bigger and badder but damage mitigation remains the same, such a shame but then again there is no real PvP in WoW.

Vael is gunna take you some time Zeab hes annoying as hell if you don't know what your doing

Anybody still playin much? This forum isn't active much. My raiding guild took down nef last week. Was able to beat him again yesterday in 1 shot, were all pretty proud of ourselves. Hows everyone else doing? My char. is a lvl 60 gnome lock on archimonde.

Hey all! Sorry haven't been around much, schools been kicking me in the ace. NE WAY, need support from all of you tech heads once again. I think the monitor my friend gave me is on its last leg here, Desktop is fine but when I reboot and it changes res's while rebooting I get awful noises coming from it, just seems like its getting old. I'm looking for a nice 19-inch monitor(Minimum is 19, higher is a possibility), don't particularly want to go LCD cause I game a bit on it but will do so at a nice cost. I'm looking for a CRT that gives me high refresh rates(If you wanna know how old this one is, the highest refres rate I can do is 75 =[ ) Looking to maybe spend around 150-250, I can go higher if needed but want to see if you guys know some kickace monitors Felt this was the best place to ask

I know many people here are avid gamers. Square has finally released Final Fantasy VII:Advent Children out in Japan and its available for download with english subtitles on the net. For anyone whose played FFVII, this is a nice continuation of the story and the animation and CG are absolutely beautiful. You can tell the amount of effort they put into make this movie of the highest quality. Sorry if this has been posted alrdy, its been a long time since i've popped in here =[

Honestly, I feel we could have beaten rag, our MT has about 400FR unbuffed(A lot of dark iron gear with +20 fire resist). He just crit an attack vs. him when the heal was about to go off, it was doom after that(Got him down to 59% before sons of flame) Top guild is up to chromaggus in BWL, I hear he is one annoying ****block due to the sheer amount of dmg output he has. For any that don't know, hes the boss before nefarius(Who has not been beaten serverwide to my knowledge). A couple guilds so far have taken down chromaggus tho.

My guild on archimonde is up to domo almost on farm status. Rag hurt us We had problems with onyxia last night due to our MT respeccing and he didn't hold agro. Haven't attempted BWL yet but one of the best alliance guilds on server has up to broodlord in farm status, they had the first firemaw kill on server yesterday, ebonroc rolled their faces though.

Well I'm back home(Finally!) What an amazing time I had at ESWC. The venue was kickin and I got to meet a ton of people. Allthough most of my time was spent in front of a computer screen, I still had a good time at the event. Luckily enough, the Americans SWEPT Counter-Strike. Both the women's and men's teams won and I'm extremely proud of them. It was great to see compLexity to win. Those guys have a ton of heart to win and are really funny in person. If you haven't checked it out, urk?!? linked it up a bit to all of our coverage during the event. There are some pics of both events, CPL and ESWC, so if you want to check em out go for it!

I know Fragfest is approaching closer and closer each day. I for one am hoping I can attend by right now its a no go as much as I would love to. This week I am heading off to France to attend ESWC, one of the biggest summer tourney's for counter-strike. Unfortunately, CPL and ESWC had scheduling conflicts and both events will be occuring at the exact same time. Gotfrag is going to have numerous people on site for both events and we plan on bringing you the latest and greatest coverage and articles we can give. Last year, CPL Summer was one of the largest events of all time with EYE coming out on top over SK.swe, CPL Winter saw NoA take down EYE in the finals. ESWC saw SK.dk(Formly the Titans) take the event over spiXel. This year there is going to be some great competition at both events and it should be quite a week. CPL is playing host to a WC3, CS 1.6, CS:Source, Painkiller, and Halo 2 X-Box tourney. ESWC is hosting a CS 1.6, WC3, GT4, Quake 3, UT2k4, and Pro evolution Soccer 4 tournament. A little background on some teams attending both events. ESWC - coL(Top American CS team right now), 3D(Regaining their once dominant form), NiP(Legendary team back in full form, names include HeatoN and Potti), 4kings(Have some of the biggest name players playing) CPL - Sk.swe(Just reborn a week ago featuring players from the 2003 team which took every international event that year), EG(Canadian powerhouse who just recruited big name "shaGuar" for the summer) Fnatic(CS team who played under the Tag M&M, now attending CPL under Fnatic name with all world class players like XeqtR from team NoA), GamerCO(Took 3rd at the previous 2 CPL Events), United 5(Under DiE name, took 7th in the winter CPL) CPL is being held at the Gaylord resort and hotel in Grapevine, Texas while ESWC this year has switched gears from the Futurescope park in Paris to having it at the Louvre(Mona Lisa?) this year. I know many of you aren't into the competition thing but if you ever want to watch some world class players and teams play now is your shot. As far as Source TV or sepctator capabilities I am not too sure on the source end. CS1.6 will have HLTV running for both events so you can catch some amazing matches. For anyone wanting to watch ESWC, Paris is +6 hrs from EST. This is something I do each summer to inform this great community about a few large events happening. urK?!? is also a senior member of the site and has helped the site grow immensly and who is also a tremendous individual. Enjoy all and hope you enjoy everything our site has to offer Site - http://www.gotfrag.com <--- Largest eSports site on the web for news and coverage

Well what does he plan on playing more? I guess thats really the question. I'm running a x800XT and I barely play source, i got mine almost 9 months ago cause i found a very good price for it.

cujo is right, that psupply is terrible. When I built my rig before christmas I was reccomended that and the enermax, all killer bought like 2 of them and both arrived dead. Now running an enermax supply which ZD reccomended. SLI is the way to go IMO. I like the setup, might want to look into possibly a bigger chip. Also, those acrylic cases are a pain. You have to wire ur comp origami style for an acrylic case to look nice. It's tough to do and you have to wear gloves cause finger prints get on them very easy.
