FRAG3 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 :)

  • Hey Kenn, make sure Ozy fixes gamers.com tourney. Password is on even if noone\'s there.

    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.

  • Did you read the followup to it? This was posted on the front page of cached.net a day after the first comments:

    \"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.

  • I read this in its full context, and it didn\'t seem at all like Maka was joking, although he later apologized on the PGL messageboard saying it was joke. Whatever. Here\'s the full version:

    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.
