Hey gang. I was an English Major in college. Hard to find many creative writing gigs around, but hey. I just got my first feature article published at MacGamer. It's a beginner's article, probably not much use to this gang. Hey, maybe you'll enjoy it anyway. Huzzah for words!

Good read and congrats on being published!

I'm an avid fan of the FPS as well. I used to play Quake Quake I online, and I just recently got DSL and began playing Quake II online via GameRanger. I love it! One tip I'll also add - practice makes perfect, experience is the best teacher. The people that are really good play alot. When you are getting killed by everyone (and man some people just don't miss with that rail gun) it's easy to get discouraged, but don't. Like you said, it's all about fun.


Cheers,
TG3

I thank you [small bow].

Yeah, you can definitely tell who plays every waking moment. Although sometimes uneven lag can really shift the balance of play. I'm certainly not the best FPS player you'll see, but I do know how to go down in a blaze of glory.
