A woman arrived at a party. While scanning the guests, she spotted an attractive man standing alone.

She approached him, smiled and said, “Hello, my name is Carmen.”

“That’s a beautiful name,” he replied. “Is it a family name?”

“No,” she replied, “As a matter of fact, I gave it to myself. It represents the things that I enjoy most – cars and men. Therefore, I chose Carmen.” “What’s your name?” she asked.

He answered, “B.J. Titsenbeer”

1v1 and TDM Demos / Re: Thresh Demos

Demonstrates Exceptional Knowlege of the Game

Most people would say Thresh was the original king of Quake 2... mostly due to winning John Carmack's Ferrari

Original King of Quake 1, yes.

I seem to recall Thresh retiring about when Q2 was released, or at least prior to the finalization of what is now regarded as standard Q2 movement physics...

(The Ferrari was won at a Q1 tournament. The company I worked for had a booth at that E3 in Atlanta demoing one of our upcoming Playstation games that year. It was fun to watch that Quake tourney live when we could get away from our booth. It didn't take place on a stage as one would expect nowadays. It was just some computers set up around id's booth, and one could crowd up a few feet behind the players and watch their screens directly. I recall being stunned at how fast Thresh could execute a 180 snap turn, fire a rocket at a target, and face forward again... it was all a blur, hyper fast. I hadn't seen anything like that before.)
