From the Desk of Cubs:
So many battles that held memorable places in all of our hearts!
Looking down from the top for so long, there are a couple particular matches that stand out amongst the rest.
First and foremost.... STB vs IMPS STB was marked for deletion by the powers that be, but they did not go down without a fight!
This was the infancy of PC, where a district could be flipped in 1 sitting, and STB brought in some assistance in the form of Annie Oakley, Calamity Jane, Cubs and a couple other TEAM. I know the videos are around somewhere, but if memory serves... 3 matches in 1 afternoon, ALL of which went down to 1 tick. the entire community had written off STB as this was the IMPS time and they were at their peak as a crew, no one denies that!
Both sides played great matches, and one of the best single days in gaming I have ever experienced. IMPS had finally lost a match, but more importantly was the sheer intensity of those matches. A feeling not easily transcribed to text. And a day that spawned mutual respect from all sides. I think even Quickgloves gained some respect that day lol
Another classic was the ritualistic dismantling of Radar and his band of monkeys, never committing to anything during their stay in EoN. I cannot recall how it started, but OH and TEAM finally squared off, with TEAM coming out victorious (in VERY close matches), but the ensuing days and Outer Heaven proceeding to disappear from Molden Heath, while some @$$hole decided to show mercy and cease with the merciless beatings....
And of course, the entirety of EoN. withstanding attacks from the entire community, and not losing once... (the initial zerg which lasted a few days). The most intense weekend of gaming I've ever been a part of and the ultimate in coordination and teamwork from a group of around 120 people, all on-call and bouncing from match to match, ushering in squads across several matches going on simultaneously, and everyones friend CBJ flappin his gums cause he beat TEAM 1 match.. in a NO SHOW, forcing an auto-reup and suddenly his monkey ass gets redlined and disappears for a few months.
good times :P
Please take a number your call will be answered shortly. Sorry for the inconvenience
