q2's slowing down ?!??!

[[BTF]Sigma]

Wow guys.

So in a topic trying to find out why q2 is slowing down around here and you guys erode it with petty arguing.

grats.

[haunted]

Steel used to be my favorite but you can't beat beast ice for 4.59 / 12pk when it's only .1% less.. well, 3 months ago it was that way anyways, in NC we used to have the 6% steels forever because by law drinks sold OTC can't have more than 6% in them. I'm just used to beat ice currently. But yeah, as far as American beer goes i buy the following : beast ice, OM ice, natty ice, steel, and schlits bull ice. They're the best tasting to me.. please don't tell me you drink king kobra or OE haha. As far as bourbon goes it's usually benchmark all the way (8$/5th), I used to drink a little evan but you can only take so much of beam and piss haha.. It's probably the fact that it tastes like beam is what sucks the most about it, i hate beam. Vodka it's Relska (4.35/5th), fleichmans (5.something/fifth), or vladamir (5.65/fifth). And ofcourse I drink deisel. I 2 gulped a bruiser of deisel just the other night haha, I have to admit it was pretty fucking harsh though. Oh and a bruiser is a tall 4-shotter for people who didn't know.


Wow sigma.
In a topic on a q2 gaming forum, when neither I nor jager are taking this shit seriously, you feel like misinterpreting everything and attempting to be the voice of reason when in reality that was a very stupid post.
grats!

Oh and anyone who still doesn't know why q2 is slowing down after the past 8 years is mentally retarded.

NC eh? Parents live in Myrtle Beach SC. Love that place, I'll be moving there hopefully by next Fall. Fuck the north east. Snow sucks!

Your post is making me thirsty. Liquid lunch here I come.

[Whirlingdervish]

well haunt, you get props from me too. You drink some of the shittiest booze imaginable and apparently by choice.
And you seem to be pretty healthy! I'm very impressed.

I'm not trying to start shit, but you could really benefit from some higher end booze.
You shouldn't shy away from more expensive drinks, just because they cost more, because the other benefits
they provide (no hangover, less kidney/liver damage, coherent speech, good taste) are all well worth it.

Benchmark is fairly kind for cheap bourbon, but Turkey definitely does the trick and doesn't really cost all that much. It also doesn't taste like it's been aged in a pine box and strained through a dirty sock.

You can end up spending a lot on bourbon if you want quality though but it's well worth it. If you can find this stuff, don't pass it up. It's worth 5 bottles of any other bourbon (and it costs about the same! lol)

I drink plenty of beer, so I can't fault your beer choices, but your taste in hard booze is just
shockingly bad.

Try some Ketel One.. or Absolut!

[[BTF] Reflex]

Absolute Citron,  stick it in the freezer and im good to go

and I want that Chalupa poster,  I hit up taco bell at least twice a week for a pair of chalupas

chased with

before homade tex-mex is hard to beat.

... but it does tend to slow your Q2 down a little.

[fanny]

In no particular order

it would be nice to see some vanilla/othermod players migrate to tdm/1vs1. yeah people play edge most of the time, but it's not all they play.

I agree Reeper
In fact I have been making a slow but progressive march myself to TDM,1vs1,3vs3,4vs4. I have also recieved quite a bit of help in it, from the likes of Adam, Element, Adrenaline, and many others. But that's not what my reply is about. My reply is geared toward two things.

1. Q2 is dying, has been since it came out in 98, but so are "all" games that came out before "yestarday", it's just the natural progression of any game. But it's not like you say luci. In fact, thanks to TastySpleen, I really feel that Q2 has actually grown!! I PMed you on irc last night to tell you RandyPants was on Tourney, where was you ??? Q2 may be dying as a whole, but TS is stronger than ever "and growing". The fact is, it's just that the people "you" liked playing with is not very active right now. After all, it is summer.
There's more people coming into Q2 all the time. Mabey if you would put forth a little effort to recruit new players ?? Get on the forums and irc and put together a few games, get your ole buddies back to it. How about getting on Vanilla or Mutant or DM and seeking out those exceptional players and asking them for a 1vs1 and start recruiting them from there. In fact, speeking of recruiting I'm currently recruiting a whole bunch of players from another game intirally over to Q2. This is my game, this is what I play, I'm proud of it, and I want more players in it, so I go after them as hard as I go after the cow with a chaingun in my hands.

of course it's hard to help someone learn to have fun playing those mods, when people have been playing them for years, and it's not fun to play unfair games: so help people out

2. I had wanted to save this for a later date, but I believe this is as a good a time as any.
With the help of all my [BTF]Brothers and the help of alot of non[BTF] members alike,
I am coming out with a Q2 Training Camp.
A Private Server is already set up, I have a Web Page for it, and Quads "i think" is going to dish out a forum area for it.
New players will log on and will undergo live training by the best players I can find.
Jumps, Aiming, Target Leading, Sounds, FFA, TDM, and other Mods. In fact Luci I could use you as a volunteer, i've already got a few commited but I need more.
Like Reeper said, new players get tore up so bad by all the highly skilled ones that they just quit and go to a different game. If we want newer players to stick around, we need to help them.

[X'tyfe]

that is an awesome idea death  ill be joining uo there for sure hehe

[haunted]

Whirling by no means are any of the beers i listed my favorite beers haha... that was my list 'as far as american beer goes'. Some of my favorite beers are red stripe, pacifico (you can see my light up pacifico sign in the backround of my pic), sol, and dos equis. Stout beers are alright, but I'm not a huge fan. Bourbon-wise it's either WT rare breed or gentleman jack. Crown is also decent, and as far as vodka goes belv > all, put it in the freezer and it tastes like water.

[Whirlingdervish]

mmm. belvedere's...

I didn't figure those beers were your favs, just good cheap drinkin fodder.
That's how I roll too, when it's time to get smashed on beers.

I save the mexi beers for when I'm grilling stuff up on the bbq and burning bowls over the weekend.
 

[[BTF]Sigma]

Haunted I meant you and Jay.

But hey call me stupid....yes I was trying to be a voice of reason. Not for ego but b/c verbal masturbation fucking pwns.


What can I say...I love me.

[haunted]

haha, most mexibeers are actually pretty good. I wish people would have the sense to try one better than fucking corona though blahh. When metal came to visit the other day we had a pretty awesome cook out with 2 other friends. Ate some big ass burgers with a 6 pack of red stripe then finished it off with some highlife bottles. It depends on the mood I'm in.. I don't usually get super-shitfaced, i'll drink a 6pk of some good beer then start on some ice beers. When I get up to anywhere between 10-15 i'll smoke some and just chill. I will drink 20+ every once in awhile but it is slightly pointless for me because at around 10 my buzz will just level out and not get any stronger (or atleast that's how it seems).

You said that you like wild turkey right? you must love the rare breed then.. it's pretty much the best basic bourbon available in my opinion. Every bottle has a different % too, not that it matters but it's cool haha.

Sigma - I didn't call you stupid, I said the post was stupid being that you misinterpreted what was actually going on, which in turn will set off the few control freakish idiots (that have no actual control) around here that think that they always have logic and reason on their side when in reality they are idiots. I like you sigma, all is good.

[Whirlingdervish]

Yeah rarebreed is killer man. I like my bourbon fairly sweet and it's one of the smoothest and sweetest you
can find... (in almost every liquor store)

Out here in Cali, there's a chain of stores called "Beverages & more", I'm not sure if they have em anywhere else..
It's pretty much a booze wholesale warehouse, but they also carry all of the other stuff you could need to get
shit-faced (glasses,shakers/blenders/stuff to mix with/beernuts and such..) and every kinda beer you could ever want.

It's the only place where I've been able to find rarebreed for relatively cheap, and the rest of the standard booze
is marked way down. (a 5th of grey goose or belvs runs less than $26-27 even when they aren't on sale...)

It's like heaven in there. 

[haunted]

Yeah I actually was just at a place like that around a month ago. I was with my mom though haha.. she picked up some porto and she got me a little pony keg of heineken. I've just started getting into fairly bitter beers like heineken around a few months ago. On tap it's soooo good. Me and metal were getting up around every 2-3 mins to refill our pint cups, shit just goes down so easy. That's a nice price on the vodka too.

Oh and jager, myrtle is like 2.5 hours away from where i go to college in wilmington, nc.
