FRAG3 Registration
by Steve Gibson, Sep 21, 1999 5:00pm PDTFRAG3 Registration should have opened at 6pm CST today but obviously it didnt. Ok, now it is open only a few hours late. Click here to register. FRAG3 is that $10,000 1st prize Q3Test tournament to be held the 2 days leading up to, and on Halloween day. Oh yeah and I yanked the Makaveli comment since it seems a lot of people are incapable of grasping the concept of sarcasm :)

Actually, I wish we could just get them out of Dallas. Maybe, into... oh, Austin.
And, the CPL has had 2 events out of Texas: Ground Zero in NY and some Decent 3 thing in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Hey, Anon@ausinetproxy05.us.dell.com, if you\'re reading this, what campus do you work on? If I hadn\'t registered, I\'d have a very similiar IP...
Hey Spez, donut.gamers.com should be working fine, it\'s got an 8-player limit, and the password is just for a few private slots in case a few of us want to hop in without kicking anyone off :)
In regards to the maxfps cheat, it\'s definitely his machine. He brought it up to us a couple of months ago and asked why it only happened on his machine. I guess that\'s the advantage to using a K6-2 or whatever weird PGL machine he got ;)
Hey I got an idea, how about a tournament
outside of Texas, gee wouldnt that be fun and original!
What did you say? CPL and Id are both in Texas
huh go figure
BAH , locating tournaments in a central location of North America
is too hard to figure out I guess.
LOSERS
I also would like to apologize for the delay and the registration errors some people have been getting. We had a series of mishaps today including a power failure in our main network center. Tomorrow we will add the list so that everyone can check their registration and if you find errors just email jerry@cyberathlete.com
Cheers!

As for that cheat, Mak\'s the only one I know who can do it so flawlessly. It has to be his machine. I figured out how to do that trick, but to keep going through and doing that, he has either incredible skill or his machine.
I don\'t see what\'s so wrong with q3tourney. Sure it has bad spawns, but in some ways, so does q2dm1. In q2dm1 it was easy to tell people were by the sounds they made. Luckily in q3test you can\'t hear sounds that people make across the whole freaking map. SOme of the GZ matches were very close, and although some really hated the spawn frags, that\'s just the way the map is. Live with what ya get :)
And anyone who knows Mak in person knows he\'s a really nice guy.

of the past Frag(s) allow the \"elite\" players to play on
the tournament machines for the entire time-- for hours. This
practice allows them to get their settings down perfect
for each match. Also, I love the stacking of FFA elimination
rounds and one-on-one games-- so that certain players are
almost guaranteed advancement. Maybe it will be different this time?
Mak was the first person who discovered the bug, and it\'s because his system config is on the fritz. He doesn\'t even know what \"com_maxfps\" was until he released a demo of it :)

that map sucks... it basically boils down to who gets the first frag.
\"I thought it was appropriate to clear up some things about the msg\'s posted on cached.net.
First, I was not attacking any of the GZ players. When I said \"Get ready to interview the q3 frag3 champ\" to cache it was meant as a joke, though I apologize for it coming off completely in the wrong way.
Second, when i was talking about nobody had a dominating rl, I meant that in general. The design of q3tourney and the way q3 is set up right now makes it a shaft dominated level and i made a comment on that. I did not mean in any way that the players at GZ had \"sucky\" rl\'s or anything like that. For those I offended, I apologize.
Third, I made a reference to Wombat because that was the demo I saw. I never really saw him, or gemini, or anybody else running around primarily with the rl. When I said \"I wouldn\'t be worried about him having an rl when he came around a corner\" is because i saw that everybody was using shaft primarily. I didn\'t mean to imply that his rl was no good.
Once again I apologize for this misunderstanding. In the future I\'ll be sure to think about wording what I have to say better since talking on the internet can easily be taken the wrong way.

D16-Makaveli: If I go to Frag3
D16-Makaveli: Get ready to interview the q3 champion
D16-Makaveli: Gemini was out shooting him
D16-Makaveli: And nobody there had a dominating rl
D16-Makaveli: Basically if I was playing wombat
D16-Makaveli: and he came around a corner
D16-Makaveli: Think I\'d be worried about him having an rl?
D16-Makaveli: Nope, cause I know he only uses shaft
Sounds like trash talking to me... but whatever. Let the q2 guys talk.
Just thought you\'d like to know...
id software is thanked in the liner notes of NIN\'s \"the fragile.\"
pretty l33t, eh?
Some of you folks are so dense. There\'s this thing called sarcasm. I\'m a big fan of it. I thought it was funny that all these people were posting stuff like \"sign up isn\'t working\" and \"help me sign up\" so I made a joke.
Damn.
right now http://204.0.25.238/register.shtml just says.. NO!

Actually, I don\'t know what\'s more depressing, the fact that I\'m hitting refresh constantly on the frag3.com site, or this one, waiting for someone to say \"Yeah, sure. You can stay with me. Just don\'t hump my cat you sicko.\"
Please to help??
