Rage against the Green Machine - by KodaK

It was a 2 on 2 Genocide match due to connection problems, and Rage controlled the RL area for most of the game. Thanks to Lockness for helping out.

Gang Toppled by Doppleganger - by KodaK

It was ugly! Doppleganger managed a sound thrashing in this match. Settings were teamplay 2, deathmatch 1, on DM3. Thanks to Dakkon for helping out. I am getting net_sendpacket error 10049 messages which freeze my system, someone has to find a cure for Trion and I who both get this error on a regular basis.
 

Game 2 used deathmatch 3, which was of course more fun, but yielded a similar result. Time to start practicing! Sometimes its better to spectate :)

Are we not Men? - by KodaK

DM3 teamplay 2 and deathmatch 3 were the settings for our Genocide match with D E V O. Trion and Brutalizer were disconnected, and lost their frags. It was fun to be playing again after my Laptop had to go into the shop. DEVO were great sportsmen.
 

Warmup with the Pack - by KodaK

For our warmup, the Wolfpack gave us a game on DM3 with the same settings as our match.  Now it seems that lots of clans really hate the deathmatch 3 setting, but in my opinion Deathmatch 1 becomes a dreary, boring weapon hoarding game suitable for the elderly and infirm. Deathmatch 3 results in lots of action and equalizes the level a bit, so at least the matchups are more even. The better team still wins, but the losing team has more fun. And Fun is what this is about.

Nintendo unplugged - by KodaK

After our match we had a couple of scrimmages with Nintendo 64 on their server. Game 1 was DM3 deathmatch 1. They are a new clan, and did very well for once of their first games. 

In Game 2 we switched to deathmatch 3, which provided a much more exciting game! Leo and Bones go on a tear.

Recent match - by Zaphoid

We played a 2 level match with Force Recon. The final combined score was Gang Green 404, Recon 25. Recon had some ping problems, but they played on anyway like good sportsmen. The match was alot of fun. Settings were teamplay 2, deathmatch 3, and levels were DM3 and DM6.
 

In the match setup email, they agreed to a Genocide match although when we met the guys for this match they didn't know anything about Genocide. We'll submit the score assuming their leader registered them.

Recent scrims - by Zaphoid

We played a quick scrim with Clan Flag! and they were pretty cool even though regular deathmatch is not their specialty. Most of us played with 400 pings, and Flag! lost one of their players midway through.

One word describes our scrim with On A Stick. Fwap! GG actuall lead the game early but something happened and we lost control of DM3. This was a teamplay 2 deathmatch 1 game, thus the "controlability" of the map.

Back to Killing School  - by KodaK

Its been back to school for me with this new laptop, as I have been practicing using the tiny keyboard and screen. My system still crashes after 5-10 min of playing, so its been a bit frustrating. At least now I can update the web page. I have been using the handle o2 when in practice mode on unfriendly servers.
Zaph made us up a new GG graphic which is now at the top of the page!

Ammo Genocide match  - by Zaphoid

Our first Genocide match of the new season. This game was a 4 on 4 HPB match. GG squeaked out a win on the first game, which happened on DM6. 

The second game was held on E4M3, and while we knew about the level ahead of time it still kinda took us by surprise. Ammo showed some true mastery of this level, taking control on the many quads on the level. Overall score: GG 186, Ammo 273. GG looks forward to another Genocide match with Ammo.
