Cognetik and his spastic behavior (12 comments)
Posted by eburbeck @ 23:23 CST, 6 November 2013 - iMsg
Does anyone know if cog has a learning disability or mental illness (being serious)? He goes absolutely bonkers at me when we're online together and we've only ever had fine games together. Seems like any response of mine, even kindness, just sets him off more, so I'm wondering if I m

Positive Reinforcement (5 comments)
Posted by G.I. Jonesy @ 18:43 CST, 3 November 2013 - iMsg
There are types of people who need positive reinforcement. They will actively avoid any and all people, places and things that fail to provide it. Furthermore, some of these types are highly successful at attracting every type of person that exists. That means, if we can get the positive reinforceme

I've got the inside information on the super secret, Ultra Street Fighter IV V'th character. As many of you might have guessed, the character is Luke Skywalker. Since the 70's, Capcom has wanted to add Star Wars characters to their games. Finally, now that Disney owns Star Wars, th

Overhead Perspective (15 comments)

On the new map 'Railyard', watching the game from the overhead perspective works perfectly well. On normal Quake maps, you kind of need to watch the games from the first-person perspective, due, of course, to the typical three-dimensional, multiple-story structure. What if, in 1fctf, all t

The problem with Quake, is that it is old-school. That means, there is no system of positive reinforcement. Modern games are the most pussy shit you have ever seen. They hold your fucking hand the entire time you play them. They reward you even if you lose. And that's exactly how we need to mak

Default CA by Smofo: Introduction: Hi, it's to my belief that most people on CA public servers are playing it wrong, not always bad but wrong. Since I had some insight to the CA competitive scene and since I have played CA in cpm for years and now in QL I figured I'd try and educate

I'm at home, properly sick as the odds were suggesting, and I finally have time to sit down quietly and write down some thoughts. Before writing this, I skimmed through the photos I took, and I let the fresh memories pop up, to make sure these lines would capture what this awesome event was.

Protecting the Primary Demographic (2 comments)

I don't know how you motherfuckers have been doing this for decades, and yet you don't know the primary demographic - nerds. Nerds are people who are dedicated to a non-social pursuit. The QL system of prohibited aliasing, keeping stats on everything, a friends list, and a skill-matchin

Windows x Xbox (13 comments)

Cross compatibility is not a new subject, but maybe there can be new progress in the area. Microsoft owns xbox. Microsoft also owns windows. If they made the xbox x compatible with windows, and not with any other OS, it would give additional reason to own both an xbox and a windows OS. Apple does

Playing to Win (11 comments)

One very real problem in QL is that people do not draw a distinction between practices and matches. In practices, you play to learn. In matches, you play to win. When in practice, if you to play win, then you fail to learn anything, and you accomplish nothing towards any real goal, and if o

In sports, every player and every team has a unique uniform. In esports, aliasing fulfills the same role. In either, it's important that uniforms only be worn in matches. When you're practicing, or at home, or hanging out at your favorite underground sex dungeon, do you wear your sports

How many of you did not grow up playing sports? There is no real school for sports, so growing up playing sports tends to fill that role. If you did not go to school, today, you probably cannot read, write or perform basic arithmetic. It's not exactly a crime to be illiterate, but it certainly

The classic Orwellian method of endless, fake warfare is ever present here in the world of Quake. By that, I mean the conflict between graphics and gameplay. Some fuck says graphics > gameplay, and then all the stooges say, gameplay > graphics... but when you look behind the curtain, you reali

With so few input on the site I decided to throw in a read. The way I see it quake is experiences the golden 20`s. We probably haven`t had that much action since 2008. There are new fragmovies ever week, the CPM crowd seems to cup a lot (that`s right I used cup as a verb), IEM and Zotac got replac
