i'll make another attempt at this. My first one missed the mark.

Each player give their version of their own view of their own experience of Tastsypleen, and it's history.

The history of TastySpleen. i'm sure at the beginning it was a small community. Now imo its the future of q2. For the sake of record's keeping, who begat who?

Well, in the beginning, God said "Let there be Quake 2!".
And so it was. He saw that it was good, and He played it.

I wonder if God plays quake 2 in 'me' mode

Anyhow.. I don't have much to add for history.
I only been around since 05

From my point of view it began with xquake.

Fascinating post quadz, thank you. One question though for the masses: origin of the name tastyspleen?

Well, I've always thought "spleen" was a funny word.

I used to play quake1 as SpleenBoy.

Years ago I even registered fictitious business names in San Diego, like Sacred Spleen R&D, for my software company.

For years I would get junk mail for things like business credit card offers, addressed to:

I started playing Q2 online in early 2004.

I still have all my old emails to "Cederberg" telling him to reboot the machine! Xquake ain't workin!

Lol even the ones I sent from work

{TNP}Dukie · « **Reply #9 on:** March 17, 2007, 07:34:04 PM »

also the days of Q2ice from Idler.
Pretzel was on a mission to upgrade all the q2 textures for Ice.

Remember Pretzels old forums?
Remember the multi-page arguements with "SICKER" !!

Remember "Oneshot! You are an asshole!"

There was a guy there who posted a picture of himself in a racecar, can't remember his name

BMF was still semi-active then too.

That was before we had a IRC chatroom, but you could go on arcade and some of the people you'd play against on Xquake would be there.

I know I met Questt and Matster there.

This is fun

(Still, Gator, my Cow and Penguin story is very accurate and much of it was pre-tastyspleen!)

Haha, I forgot all about that!

Yeah, quake2 would crash, and he'd be on some damn business trip...
