Thought it might be fun to take a short walk down memory lane. Some of my favorite anecdotes and pilots, randomly:
Sasquatch, who spoke no words except for Sasquatch> "Sasquatch!" that he'd randomly yell in pub. Always got a kick out of this <img src='http://www.subspace.co/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />
Wormhole Fiend, who would spend his day rotating around the wormhole, waiting to trap victims with his wall. Most unique gameplay style ever?
Dino722, for longevity, class, and tomato sauce...
Montezuma, a friend, for fanning the flames and always adding a splash of Down Under. Nobody incited more politically charged discourse!
C H I R P, whom patrolled the tunnels during my nascent days. Another great playstylist!
Ethylene!, for forcing me to fly jav. I can't think of anyone else that has so consistently maintained a legion of detractors for so long. There is a charm buried somewhere within that disgruntled exterior...
To me, the most fearsome pubber was NME. I don't know how many countless times we faced off outside of the castle, but I do know that it was me who found himself greening after most of them.
Best record: Some might say Chemical's run, which included a crazy avg, but he had heaps of swarmy help. The best solo performance I've seen was by RaVen!, who went well over 100-0. He did it the hard way, by wading through and mowing down busy 2004-ish traffic.
Best lifetime body of work? Only two nominees here - Snafu and Starscream
And of course all of the squaddies on Ballistics. Ace-high, Kepi, Agentsteel, Mac-man, a du kit, drevok, Cavitation, Absocold, Dantos, Demerol, Largo, Mobboss, Bortas, WORDS. WORDS. WORDS.
What happened to Bukkwild? Gruntster? Semi? Wolverine^? Pushead? Don Cherry? Jolly Roger?
Would love to hear your memories - old, new, or current - share below!
