But that's enough stroking his ego. He'll get even more insufferable.

I remember there being a lot of talk back in the day, but which regular posters were actually good?

I think Dark Metal and SoM were fun to play with and Amidyfreak was pretty solid, too. [xeno]Julios was good, who else? Menkent I think.

I think there used to be a "competitive gaming" section here, right?

I did however join a tournament here once upon a time. I was obviously the only skilled player in the tournament cause I dominated.

In fact, I destroyed people so bad they made the final match a 10 player free for all on Q3DM18 if I recall correctly. It was a space map meant for I think 6 players and was a complete clusterfuck. I got telefragged several times and wound up getting 2nd place and a big fat nothing even though I would have destroyed the winner in a 1 vs 1 and even though I destroyed every other match on the way there. I was pretty pissed honestly, it was a shit way to finish a tournament and pretty much made the end as random as it could be.

I don't tend to boast about fictitious computer game tournaments that didn't happen 15 years ago.

Come on son, own it, don't try to pass it on to me.

Who was that fuckin HPB... Dez? Maybe I'm wrong. I remember him doing quite well with something around ~500ms ping.

I had a couple 1v1 with Dutard way back when... he pretty much mopped the floor with me but I remember feeling good that I got a few kills in. He was at the level of "shooting rockets at fucking spawn points so they hit you in the face the second you respawn right after he just killed you" kind of shit. I didn't know how to fight against that Also.. LG skills++;

Although outside of Q3W fame, whenever I played with IRL friends, it was always too easy for me. Also remember enjoying some mega-fun CTF when TA first came out.
