Impressed with the overall TS experience. Just had to post it on my website in hopes of bringing in some of my RA2 homies.

Hi BigTrucK,

Thanks for the positive write-up! Much appreciated...

Just wanted to mention for what it's worth - we don't at present run any Lithium-based mods at TS.

My experience with Lithium is that--for whatever reason--it seems to disrupt Quake2's delicate physics bugs that allow strafe/circle jumping and (maybe) some of the trick box jumps. (I don't remember the latter, but I've definitely noticed the former.) We have a number of trick-jump-lovin' players at TS, thus the primary reason we don't run Lithium.

For the morbidly curious (probably no-one

) we run R1Q2-SSP on most of the servers, and R1Q2-OSP on the tourney server.

Thanks again,

Regards,

No problem! Appreciate the great servers. I have edited the post and taken out lithium. You'd think I would have realized it that after playing for 5 years. Physics don't mean nothing to me though, I just like blowing stuff up

:p I despise lithium....especially the stupid hook...oh gawd that thing pisses me off

Dude I am right there with you... I consider the hook a hack. Tried to play instagib at Eagle's Nest (hook enabled server) and was gaid beyond recognition.

Never played gxmod but ra2 is the shiznitch. Z4 came with one of his buddies to a gaming event we held many moons ago. Needless to say he breezed through the competition.

Sup Frobe! Dude it seriously took me like 5 days figuring out where I hurd that name, it was driving me crazy. That's why I had to ask you about it today haha.

GGZ!

We used to host out of Southern Cali, more specifically Anaheim. Right now we are looking for a new location anywhere in Anaheim where the rent isn't too expensive.
