D'oh!
When Steven Seagal kills a ninja, he only takes its hide. When Chuck Norris kills a ninja, he uses every part.

Chuck Norris and Mr. T walked into a bar. The bar was instantly destroyed, as that level of awesome cannot be contained in one building.

Nice!! Way to investigate fully. I just saw it this morning quickly before I went out to class. Didn't bother to click the link. Was wondering why Planetquake hadn't covered it and why they had started so early. That, and I had checked the site about 1.4768 weeks ago (with an accuracy of +/- 4 seconds ;) ).


As of now, I'm just planning on watching it this year. Money looks to be tight. Though, 2004 will most likely be THE year what with Quake 4 and all. I'll see you guys the end of August for the "playoffs." Though, if anyone does go this year, ya might as well go the end of July and stay until September. The CPL has their Dallas event at the end of July and Quakecon is the end of August. Save up now and LAN for an entire month in Texas :mrgreen:

Later we can combine that tapes into 1 copy, and whoever wants one we can make copies for them.

Whoever has broadband, is willing to host, and has able room to seat about 10-15 guys around a tv. I'll let you guys fight it out for who wants the "honour" of dealing with a bunch of loud, cursing sports fans :mrgreen:
