"Buy the ticket, take the ride."
lol thats dumb... completely agree with adren. maps like bloodrun, rdm7, rdm3... those are fine. tltf is just an extreme map that straight up isnt for duel.
You shouldn't have to be made to play a map you've never seen with the chance you could possibly lose to some dipshit like 2dum, so that he can feel like he's accomplished something.I mean come the fuck on, at least let a person play a map a couple times before being thrust into it directly. How is that even fair?
And speaking merely as a spectator, it's fun to see gameplay on obscure maps at least once or twice in the evening amidst all the q2dm1, q2rdm2, ztn2dm3 picks.
Futhermore, you keep saying "occupation". It's not an occupation.

I like how KotH currently employs a blacklist rather than a whitelist for maps.Crossing off maps as "unfit for purpose" makes sense. (I seem to recall early on, someone tried to call a map that's a single small square room cluttered with all possible weapons and armor and powerups, having a wall button that brings down a spiked ceiling to squish everyone.) But when a challenger calls a reasonable map (assuming BFG and powershield disabled) then I don't think the defender should be able to reject it out of hand just due to unfamiliarity. (The limit case of course being, "I only play q2dm1 so I reject all other choices." )And speaking merely as a spectator, it's fun to see gameplay on obscure maps at least once or twice in the evening amidst all the q2dm1, q2rdm2, ztn2dm3 picks.
VaeVictis:i find it funny that you even consider grammar a sign of intelligence, that itself is a very uneducated claim

He doesn't know how to be a normal person about wins; every one he gets, no matter how marginal, he won't ever stfu about. Same with his losses too. Every time he gets beat, he never stops hammering those who beat him with hackusations. Just sayin'.If the dude would simply act honorable and humble in wins or losses, this wouldn't even be an issue. Of course, if he was a good guy, he wouldn't have made this thread in the first place. This whole thread is nothing but him claiming how great he thinks he is, and how he thinks that's the reason people are "wronging" him (to spite him).I seriously doubt anyone would dare venture anywhere near close to how 2dum acts when he plays. There's plenty of players who could do what 2dum does, but choose not to, because it's fucking lame and unsportsmanlike behavior. Just honestly think for a minute what it would be like if EVERYONE acted like 2dum in-game. I'm pretty sure after not too long, quadz would probably pull the plug on the whole damn show; 2dum's bullshit makes me nauseous, and I'm seriously glad most people don't act like him, because q2 would be without a central community if quadz is anything like me in tolerance for bullshit, i.e. I can take a lot, but I need to know that the good games that happen outweigh the bad, irritating bullshit that spawns up.I know I'm kinda ranting, but this shit is seriously starting to irritate/disgust me. I won't pull a Elysium and farewell over it (<3 u Ely), but I really do wonder why people like 2dum think it's okay to act like they do in a community that's just trying to enjoy what's left of a great game. Whatever I guess...
and anyone who plays vs ex is not allowed to vote anything outside of Edge, Rage, and Aerowalk, is that the gist of it?
Oh Godfather, Oh ex, you need to lay off the alcohol and the drugs you jackass. You are showing signs of mental instability Why are you hating on me so much? ROFL Im sitting here writhing in pain and barely able to play and i come read your bs rants about me. Wtf did i do? This is my first thread in like a month...The last time we played in jump, you were helping me with the h pylori disease... so wtf happened between now and then?
My original post was fun in nature and wasn't anything really serious, but after reading your comment, I smell a hint of murderous vengeance in your tone, similar to that spoken by rk.
I think I heard you're upset with haunted because he said you are scared to 1v1 me or random? LOL? And now you refuse to talk to random about anything? Why dont you vent your frustrations ex, go forth and vomit your delusions.
