Hey guys! No one else has to participate in this, but I was thinkin back and realized we never had any of these kind of threads. Anyway, if you wanna jump in it might be cool to see where it goes I'm gonna try and pull out some stuff some of you might not know/remember about me, so let's see if I can surprise you... Something noob/annoying you used to do?This really dates me (in a bad way, lol) but I used to always type following grammar rules etc. So if I was gonna say something in chat I would say "Guys be careful for the archers camping our spawn" as opposed to "arch top care" for example. It got to the point one of the old PC dudes (name was Alpha I'm 99% sure) started harassing me to stop. Realllly old thing about you?So I started playing like 3mos before the servers went offline. I've changed a lot in the last few years, but when I joined I was like fairly early high school age. I had been raised Christian my entire life (still am, btw) and back then whenever anyone cussed or swore in chat I would always type "Clean chat please" (some dude did it once and ppl actually listened so I had the bright idea to copy his method). Needless to say, typing "Clean chat please" over and over only made ppl even angrier and more likely to curse (back in those days a lotta pc players were pretty filthy-mouthed anyway so this got pretty bad sometimes). We would get in long religious debates to the point a quarter to three quarters of the server would be arguing one side or the other and a lotta guys would just ask for everyone to shutup and play the game. There were one or two times I think I actually got a point across, but I ended up stopping b/c I finally got smart enough to realize that my words only made things worse (I was a pretty dumb kid so this took a few months to figure out). Original CQ class?My original class was the archer class and I started playing it b/c I thought it had a high skill cap. Man was I wrong. What got you involved in the CQ community?When the servers died, I wanted to keep in contact with some ppl. I went to RC's (ranger corps - old PC clan) site and eventually ArO and Elf posted about Hamachi which lead into Tunngle. Honestly, I was hardly part of the community at that point but Taco asked me to create a site for his clan (now known as TacTic ofc) and I did so on the premise that I would only create the site and then turn it over to him. At the very most, I would be a member of the clan but only a low-ranking one. Basically, a lot of drama ended up going down that I won't bring back up here but it came down to the point where I probably would have left the game for good but Taco (a guy I barely knew at the time) stood up for me (again, a guy he barely knew vs a potentially much stronger TacTic roster with some pre-built fame). Ofc, this lead into Taco and I being the founders for the clan and that got things going. Looking back, that moment really shaped a lot and things would probably be quite a bit different (at least for me) had Taco not done this (shoutout [BC]Taco). My Greatest WeaknessI've seen it said a few times over the last (what like 5 years now?) few years that I was super humble and not prideful - unfortunately this is about as far from the truth as it can get. I'm actually a lot less prideful than I was when I started forever ago, but especially during the first year or two after the great merge I was super arrogant. Now I can die honest Tragic CQ momentFor me this was the moment I realized I sucked so hard at dueling. I kinda made up that I didn't care about dueling, but really I was pretty butthurt at the time when I just got dumpstered by warrs I knew I was better than. Ron inspired me pretty hardcore to try and break the meta a bit. Hence the Anti + "bodyguard" (of which I will admit the latter was my fav 95% of the time and 100% of the time when my mate was on the same page) Dude you looked up to/respected?Mann back in the days when I was a total scrub I really respected Goth. The guy was super cool and a total monster. I wish he had stuck around a little longer. In the new universe - May gets my vote (such an original choice right?). I always looked up to how he handled business and dealt with the nubs (myself included). Your favorite/dying memory?I'm going to cheat and list two of my favorite moments - the first being (again, I'm so predictable blah) TacTic's first CW first Empire. If you didn't play in those days you can't really understand how much of a feat that was, but back in those days we were such a ragtag bunch that really had about the same odds that Frodo and Sam had of successfully delivering the ring to Mt. Doom. It was truly a moment to be cherished. My second favorite is a giant amalgamation of playing besides ron/panos/taco/merlin/ang/may in situations where we would be 2v4/5 and still come out on top. These moments were many and it's really hard to point out one that shines above the others, but those memories will always be at the top of my list (late night shift ftw). Your wut momentNot trying to make any call-outs, but way back when Ang had just returned from a break and he May and I were in a server together and decided to do archer duels. I think I beat Ang like 10-6 (neither of us spread) and May like 10-9 (I resorted to spreading tho :/). They are/have always been super amazing archers and it was just a fluke + Ang being out of practice, but I remember all 3 of us were just like wut just happened Clearing the airNot gonna call anyone out or anything but I know over the years there are a few ppl who parted on bad last words/things that happened. You know who you are (a few of you are still kinda active here) if you are reading this and I wish I'd said something back then but I just want you to know that I forgive you and I hope you can forgive me back. I <3 all of you One regretI'm going to keep this one light-hearted, but I really wish I had tried harder to get better at the game and beast the 3v3's with my mates. I think those were a lotta fun but I was really terrible at them. I also think Taco and I coulda come 2nd place in the 2v2 olympics tourny a few years ago pretty easily had I just played a little better. One thing you're thankful forI just wanna say I'm super thankful to all of you for thinking of me even since I "left" and invited me to tournys/events/etc. These have been super fun and memorable and even when I couldn't play I loved hearing you guys remembered me and didn't mind even if I was uber rusty. You guys are the real MVPs.

I'll continue coz why not =))) Something noob/annoying you used to do?The one thing i always doing in cw, duels for fun, cup or olympics, is RAMBOING!! E.G. clanwar CTR: I'm ringbearer, my whole team's dead, i have no support, and enemy team approaches...pfff KILL'EM ALL! Second annoying thing i keep doing used to do - fake names, over 9000 fake names, and every of them is member of op clans such as DAER, Suka~, RC, [NOOB], TEAM ofc, etc. Realllly old thing about you?I never finished LOTR: Conquest storyline. I think i stopped campaing on Pelennor Fields mission. Got bored. Original CQ class?Warrior 4eva! The best class in game. More hp, more damage, ability to dodge\block almost every attack, strong nonmelee attack ( fist time i played, i thought, i could use axe in melee combat). After discovering of aerial combos, warrior became killing machine. What got you involved in the CQ community?I started playing dat game after death of EA servers( few years after death of EA servers) , as fan of Lord of the rings, i was looking for some lotr game, found this. Then, in some russian forum i found topic about HOW TO PLAY LOTR CONQUEST USING TUNNGLE OR HAMACHI. hamachi sux, so i played using tunngle. After few weeks, mayhem spammed in room chat about olympics, so i decided to join. After my first olympics, i joined eQ and became true member of community :3 My Greatest WeaknessAccuracy. Although, i have pretty good connection, but i can't aim target in 70% of occasions. Totally suck Tragic CQ momentno question, it's my loss vs rikimaru in my first olympics. I just started playing and liked warrior, so i signed up for warrior event. I won first round, then i met rikimaru in 2nd round and was defeated 10/-2. As dark said : "no offence inglorious, but that was owned". Soo tragic :c Dude you looked up to/respected?Can't name single person, there are many guys, who i like and respect :3 It will be easier to call nab or nabs who i don't like, but who cares ) Your favorite/dying memory?First, it's my first cw for eQ. Played as sub vs VaLaR. We loose that cw, if i remember. But Hurin said, i'm quite good for them, so moreover i became member of clan, yay. Second, my silver medal in 2012 or 2013 ( i dont remember xD) olympics. My greatest duel ever vs Taco, and surprising victory Third, our LC trainings. Especially, 8 LC sarumans VS legolas Darklion. Thanks God he was afk second half of match so we won. Your wut momentSong, that abd made for me, about his true feeling to me. I wasn't ready for such trolling wave from him, and after reading dat song, the only thing i could say was WUUUUT?! Sad, i can't find it anymore (( Clearing the airNope, nothing One regretI CAN'T FIND DAMN ABD SONG. also, sad, we can't use mounts and ballistas\catapults in clan wars One thing you're thankful forI'm thankful to all of you who keeps "RAISIN' THE GAME" during last years :3 Thanks for keeping servers up, for making cool events, and being such cuties :3

Nice idea Lhii. Hi everybody. My name is Taco. I've been sober 8 months...Something noob/annoying you used to do?It has to be something I used to do? Darn. I might as well not even say anything now because you all know. I started playing CQ at the age of 12, so you can shudder to imagine (or remember, for some of ye) that this present me (18 winters) is in fact quite mild. Realllly old thing about you?I also used to say things like "Clean chat please" and start religious debates back in EA days, but since Lhii has already volunteered to be crucified I'll happily make like Barabbas and find something else haha. I've been playing this game for 6 years...that makes me feel old. There's also a passing sense of regret. Annnd it's gone. Original CQ class?Archer was my main when I first started playing. I'd like to say that if my archer is immoral now, it used to be much worse - and without shotguns at that. I was one of those campy try hard archers that are nearly always zoomed in, always a hobbit on Shire CTR, usually played on Good, etc.. As time wore on I began to imagine I heard a faint, annoying voice inside my head; but others like Equester, TheHobbit, and Chris88 still played on. But the voice became clearer and more distinct. I killed more quickly - more vehemently; but the noise steadily increased. And still other archers camped pleasantly, and smiled. Was it possible they heard it not? This I thought, and this I think. Still the voice grew louder! louder! louder! Anything was better than this agony! Anything was more tolerable than this degeneracy! I felt that I must scout or die! However, almost from the time I donned the name Taco to EA's Armageddon I played scout extensively, inspired by PC scout pioneers Jwalk (The Joker), EnchtdElf, and Aerador. I played warrior now and then, shadowing greats like TLF's Gothmog and Nazgulz, and KOTT's Morgoth, but my identity lay with the scout class for the better part of EA. I shunned mages mercilessly. Wasn't really until Tunngle that I indulged in the gluttony. Aerador's scout montages from 2009. Pretty dry compared to "modern" scouts, but it was the Twilit Years... What got you involved in the CQ community?Sheer addiction haha. I started playing around 2 weeks after the game's release, by which time there were already several clans formed. Since its inception CQ has always hosted loads of camaraderie, brotherhoods, and friendships, and that's a huge part of why this game was so great. It wasn't just a pastime (and man did I pass a lot of it), it was a community (of communities). It's so long ago that I probably can't even remember the correct names of all the clans, but off the top of my head: NA, DNC (later TLF I think), KOTT, and RC, and others. Right from my very first game I was recruited into NA. With lots of good times and drama in between, NA became TEB, TEB for the most part became LW, then LS, and finally BoW. Lhii and I formed TacTic in the early Tunngle era, and the rest most of you know already. My Greatest WeaknessThis bloody game xD Tragic CQ momentLosing a scout duel against Merlin when he was a mere bomber lol Dude you looked up to/respected?Jumping on the Mai Mai bandwagon, but c'mon, he's a prof amongst pupils! Your favorite/dying memory?Pretty much what Lhii said. There's too many really good memories of chill late nights in the servers with friends, hard to recall just one. Your wut momentBeating Empire. Countless glitches. Getting a fire headshot on a camper on Isengard that ricocheted off a mage shield in the center of the map. Getting 6 kills with one Balrog heavy special in a regular 8v8 game. Witnessing metagame magic like Zoroastre's infinite combo in light of what the game used to be like. Clearing the airMerlin I'm sorry for propagating "ease" at your expense, but it's gone too far now. There's no going back. Ease stays in CQ vernacular. One regret6 yearsOne thing you're thankful for6 years And everyone that helped bring the servers back and kept them alive all these years. Shout out to Mayhem, Onde, JiG, Ron, and many others.

Something noob/annoying you used to do?I discovered/invented the glitch spot behind the wall on evil side of Shire htdm (opposite corner to good CTR spawn). You can actually shoot through the wall and not easily be hit from the other side. I used to camp this spot for the entire game and end up with something like 6 - 1 (so gud). Realllly old thing about you?My first class was scout, for about two days. Play time was rare for me, in those days. I spent hours watching Onde's mage and warrior. Only seriously began playing when we invested in a second Xbox and TV. Original CQ class?Scout for a couple of days, then archer. What got you involved in the CQ community?When it was announced that the servers were going to be closing, we decided to get a video capture card and make the first LOTR Olympics as a way to remember the game. Then, after Onde made a breakthrough with the server program, we launched the CNQReboot servers. Was involved with organising events since then. I invested a pretty stupid amount of time in this blessed game, really, but it sure did keep me out of trouble during some difficult times. 2011 Olympics were even more interesting to me because you had people from all different platforms competing. I was also in a clan and became good friends with nubs Merl and Ang, and our army of 3 battles vs the Empire noobs were mighty battles! My Greatest Weakness1 class noob only. (my scout is still retired, but recently emerged to END THE REIGN of frodosam's Gandalf @¿@ FEAR_THE_BACKSTABBIEZ) Tragic CQ momentWhen Taquito taught everyone shotgun! BOOOO! Dude you looked up to/respected?When I first started playing the game, Experiment187 and Mime999 were THE guys. All my current game friends. In terms of in game ability, Merlin, Taco, Angelus, Zoroastre, Istari and Oneshot were/are at one time/currently the most talented multiclass players I ever saw. Your favorite/dying memory?Too many to list. The TacTic clan war win over Empire was a highlight. The Army of 3 games with Ang, Merlin, Istari, Morgoth and Darklion were great. The Black Council reign of pwnage. Waiting for Merl and Ang to get on around 16-17GMT and rule the land of the servers - BEWARE THE FATEZ! My games with team spreader - heroic bodyguarding. A Conquest game with Merlin and I vs Gothmog, Taco and some others on Moria. Watching Experiment vs Pally archer duel live. A 2v2 with Angelus vs Morgoth and Istari. Winning the 2v2 event with Taquito. Seeing people compete in all the Olympics was a privilege, and there have been some great games to watch. All of the clan wars. The general sense of organising a clan war and having 16 ppl take part and have fun is great. First game back with JiG. My BC audition. Archer duelz with Dark, suzda, Ang, Taco. Also: 3+ hour chats about the game on Xfire with Jopp, Lhii, Taco, Merlin, Angelus (legendary Olympics chats), Darklion, Morgoth, Ding and probably others I'm forgetting. Your wut momentBeating Ing and Onde in warrior duels last year . Clearing the airTo everyone I pissed off in the past: I'm sorry, I suck. To all current people on my Xfire: you rule! One regretNever fully learning another class. One thing you're thankful forThat somehow you crazy noobs still have a love for the Conquester buried somewhere in your hearts (apart from Popp, he sux). We've kept this game alive for FIVE YEARS since it was 'killed'. It still has a cult following. There's STILL nothing like a close Conquest game; nothing like the carnage of an 8v8 fight; nothing like the slower gameplay filled with character. It is a long time to look back over. I was 26 when I started Conquest on the demo; now I'm 32! P.S. - Lhii, you should play a few games now and then!

Something noob/annoying you used to do?I was part of the Conquest mode point whoring at the very beginning of the game, where you would just go around in rotation capping bases and not killing at all and getting 4-7k in points. Realllly old thing about you?I've played since the very start since the demo was released i had to make a usa account to get the demo and it's been so long i can't even remember the name of the account i used lol Original CQ class?Mage....I had such an affinity to it that it was my main class for about 85% of the whole 1yr 2mnths that the servers were up on Electronic Arts, When i came back to Hamachi my old pc couldn't handle the game well so i had to play on the lowest possible settings which meant the game was not in full screen and bad graphics lag with the addition of Hamachi lag it meant my career with mage was ended and my warrior made it's newbie debut (luckily i learned a lot from studying Morgoth,Gothmog,Ronjons warriors). Ps. i played Warrior only twice in the entire Ea days lol What got you involved in the CQ community?I used to occasionally buy a PlayStation magazine for news of upcoming games and luckily I got the issue that had a feature on LotrC so that's how I learnt of the game and so I waited quite a while for the demo to be released. How I joined the community? well, even though I've played from the beginning I didn't even find out about the original forum until about September 2009 which was near the end of the servers due to me changing modes in March/April? and going exclusively to CTR which only 2% of the forum community played lel Then took me another couple of months to realize all the forum community, mainly played in the Mixed mode and normally after 22gmt so by the time i started playing with scrubs it was too late because servers got shut. =P Only when i came to Hamachi and there was in game chat that i actually started participating in the community. My Greatest WeaknessStraightshot archer duels Tragic CQ momentLosing to Mayhem in my very first or second? archer duel that i had...the guy hacked on that day, luckily it gave me the incentive to learn from my mistakes. ps. for showing Taco how to "correctly" do shotgun at minas tirith tdm Dude you looked up to/respected?The very first would be a guy called "rec-out" back in the very first era on Ea servers he was the first true elite scout in this game (at least on Ps3) it was him who made me want to play scout. There are a dozen guys who i respect in personality or skill: Merlin,Morgoth,Taco,Darklion,Oneshot,Mayhem,Lhii,Rikimaru,Zoro,Joppi,Istari (yes i forgot loads) I also respect all who don't take the game seriously like i used to Your favorite/dying memory?The main one is playing those late night sessions with who Lhii, Mayhem & Taco mentioned they were the most fun games I've had in this game. The Army of 3's with nub Mayhem and Merlina vs Dark,Morg,Istari & all the clan wars with Psx and Black Council. Psx winning the medal table in 2011 was also nice Your wut momentVery hard one but would have to say Beating Darklion in the Archer semis i thought I'd get pownt hard. Clearing the airI've never had a problem with anyone maybe some ppl had a problem with me im not sure, I'd only talk trash if someone talked trash to me, some nubs like Donster stopped talking to moi because i was friends with Merlin maybe that's the reason some disliked me One regretHmm...i think my biggest regret is staying too long after i diminished in skill and was not in my prime. I have more than one regret xD My other is never winning Scout and Warrior golds in Olympics, had the worst luck in Warrior. One thing you're thankful forAll the friends and gaming memories i made over these last 6yrs.

Something noob/annoying you used to do? I can be main reason why "no scout rolling with ring" rule started. I was doing it so well that everytime i got ring with scout it was 100% capture.
Really old thing about you? First multiplayer game for me. Playing it for 6 years. Im best archer since then (lmao)
Original CQ class? It was archer alongside scout. Stopped using scout in 8vs8 cus Thehobbit pissed me off
What got you involved in the CQ community? On EA i organised first (Possible) clanwar on PC ever using Google Translate (Ftw.) Since them i always wanted to play in all kind of events because they r so much more fun than normal 8v8 game.
My Greatest Weakness Duels and my trolling
Tragic CQ moment Losing to Angelus in Olympics 2011 Archer Semifinal. Caused me to drop tryharding and start trolling. #BLAMEANG2015
Dude you looked up to/respected? All KOTT teammates and many players from Tunngle (mainly AmFakes and suzda bestest brothers). Never respected anyone from TLF cause they suck.
Your favorite/dying memory? Beating TLF in 2nd clanwar after we got new members who actually played game (4 losses before - only myself and Radai = active players). TacTic vs Empire cw which showed that new players can beat legends. My duel vs Giaquinto!!!! All clanwars. Events like Olympics (Thx Mayhem) etc.
Your wut moment Winning (more like pwning) Taco in Olympics 2011 Archer Quarter Finals.
Clearing the air If i ever said sth bad to you. I was trolling. If you won vs me in duel. I was trolling.
One regret Playing Archer 24/7 and not winning gold with it. Also trolling.
One thing you're thankful for Bringing this game to life after EA Nation Shutdown + all awesome moments i had this 6 years.

Something noob/annoying you used to do? Raging over BC pwnage back in old days and insulting everyone ganging or spreading me
Realllly old thing about you? Use to play as Swarley999 during EA days. I bought the game 2 weeks after it came out and remained newb for about 3 years
Original CQ class? Use to play archer loads like any noob
What got you involved in the CQ community? My 1st event was a seige/VIP in which i randomly popped in. Everyone was shouting me to get out, thinking id ruin the event. Im still wondering if i stole someone's spot there.
I really got involved after Saburex linked me to the forum which i had no idea it existed. He told me to join a clan and xfired Hurin to test me when i said i wanted eQ
My Greatest Weakness Jumping to avoid backstab, my spacebar is ****ed up
Also whole map archer duels. I tried to camp really, i just can't
Tragic CQ moment Losing warrior olympics to Saburex last year. Mayhem if you post that video ill rq the game
Discovering abd dedicated a song to Ing and not to me
Dude you looked up to/respected? Few guys i looked up to when i was nubish, like Ron, Panos, Ramp, Mayhem and others
Over the years i came out to be friends with pretty much everyone, my clan mates, few BC nabs like Merlin (still dunno how that happened), Angelus and Laiebi, and ofc my padawan Pignob, bf 4eva m8
Your favorite/dying memory? Countless trolling sessions with Panos, Ron, Ramp, Ing, glitching nights with clan m8s, 8 sarumans vs legolas Darklion, the Babel, Bobel, Bebel, Bibel army, kicking abd to death and so many other nonsensity
Your wut moment Beating Merlin and silver medal with mage
Clearing the air Angelus is an easy to beat nab, be aware of Mayhem's subliminal conspiracy to build his legend
Merlin i use to think you were a trash, back then i would poop on myself if someone told me we would be full time gaming comrads eventually
Abd i wish i could say smthg different after 3 years, but u still suck
One regret Not winning warrior gold before i start to diminish
One thing you're thankful for To all those that kept the game alive for the last years, especially Mayhem giving everything to make this game legendary

Original CQ class?Mage! C: When i began to play was too young, and only had fun throwing fireballs and lightnings, score always was 0-30 dunno why, since i learned mage melee and that became a pwning so haard. Jk, some of the guys in conquest mode of ps3 were to gay and only wanted to cap that full team was caping in isengard and i kill them all with a fireball and stick shock. I still can remember that simbamkali and a guy called Huns OWE 1 were caaping. What got you involved in the CQ community?Is weirdo, playing this game since the first day and i discovered forums 1 year ago, an altar for me. My Greatest WeaknessScouts. When in the enemy team there are more than 1 scout i become really mad. Tragic CQ momentDnt need to think a lot, the olympics of 2011 when i was a happy kid of 11 years, signed on mage event without never dueled with mage before. I lost in rivendel 10-1 against Nimloth and I couldn't understand why i lost if in servers i usually did positive scores with mage. Now i know, rivendel map suxs! Stt¡ill can remember to crying to may and spamming him saying that if he could restart olympics Dude you looked up to/respected?Ronjons. He is just the best warrior befor now and forever, always friendly he made me a close score in olympics to dnt make me cry, when he could pwn me.

Post by Strider on Feb 8, 2015 23:26:48 GMT
Something noob/annoying you used to do? Getting upset when I felt that my team wasn’t carrying their weight. I was in a bit of a dark place back then and, at times, I would let my emotions get the best of me.
Realllly old thing about you? I quit playing Conquest after the first month of release. After a three to four month hiatus, I returned, and happened to run into andrewcvety. He directed me to the Gamefaqs forum, where the first-gen proboards community was beginning to take shape. When I created the aforementioned forum, I had no clue it would blow up the way that it did. I just wanted us to have a free, open space without the overbearing G’faqs mods.
Original CQ class? Mage. I had way too much fun hopping around.
What got you involved in the CQ community? As I mentioned, it was andrewcvety that directed me to the Gamefaqs forum. What got me to stay involved was the amount of innovation and passion being expressed by the community.
My Greatest Weakness In pub-games, if the opposing team was parading or ganging, I found it difficult not to dive in, and attack. Even if I kept dying over and over, I just couldn’t resist.
Tragic CQ moment The fall-out between BM and I, and the amount of drama that went down, in general, during the final hours of the EA era.
Dude you looked up to/respected? Has to be two: Rizen and Burnz. Stand-up guys through and through.
Your favorite/dying memory? Conquest mode. Joppi (archer) and Strider (warrior) vs. 7 mages. Location: On the stairs of Moria, just across the fabled Bridge of Khazad Dum.
Strider approaches the snarling horde and baits out a few firewalls, shields remain in place. All of a sudden, he launches himself into the mix! What is this madness? Strider’s sword erupts and he’s sent into a ferocious cosmic storm. The mages prove their mettle with ancient magic of their own, doing their best to extinguish the beacon of hope. However, in blind panic, their shields have dropped! Joppi, the sniper, born with the eyes of the most proficient bird of prey, begins an aerial assault that would make Tom Brady blush. Strider, fighting for the survival of all of mankind, gasps his final breath while bringing two of the swine-casters with him. But, hope is not lost! Before the soulless spellbinders are able to shield themselves once more, Joppi, lord of the critical shit-shot, sends them to their doom!
Yeah, I think that's how it went down.
Your wut moment Every moment was a ‘wut’ moment when Killa was around. Gotta love the guy, though.
Clearing the air I care about this community a great deal and I’m truly amazed that it’s still going strong. My “disappearance,” and the eventual demise of the original forum, wasn’t intentional. I never expected my role as “admin” to become as intensive and time-consuming as it was. And, especially toward the end of the EA days, I was a little burnt out on everything.
One regret Not applying myself, fully, to this game. I relied, too much, on natural ability and was extremely lazy when it came to fine-tuning my game. When I see the amount of progress in the meta these days, I’m amazed. You guys have pushed this game further than I thought possible.
One thing you're thankful for Despite playing this game for less than a year, in total, it has remained one of my favorites of all time. I’m thankful for the community, old and new, and to the work that the community leaders have put in. If not for them, the game would have faded away and we wouldn’t have a space for these great threads, and stories. I’m looking forward to getting some quality games in this year. Cheers, again, to Mayhem, Onde, Ron, and anyone else (give me a break, I’m new) that helped keep this community alive.

Your favorite/dying memory?Conquest mode. Joppi (archer) and Strider (warrior) vs. 7 mages. Location: On the stairs of Moria, just across the fabled Bridge of Khazad Dum. Strider approaches the snarling horde and baits out a few firewalls, shields remain in place. All of a sudden, he launches himself into the mix! What is this madness? Strider’s sword erupts and he’s sent into a ferocious cosmic storm. The mages prove their mettle with ancient magic of their own, doing their best to extinguish the beacon of hope. However, in blind panic, their shields have dropped! Joppi, the sniper, born with the eyes of the most proficient bird of prey, begins an aerial assault that would make Tom Brady blush. Strider, fighting for the survival of all of mankind, gasps his final breath while bringing two of the swine-casters with him. But, hope is not lost! Before the soulless spellbinders are able to shield themselves once more, Joppi, lord of the critical shit-shot, sends them to their doom! Yeah, I think that's how it went down. YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO word, best play ever

Something noob/annoying you used to do? Trolling (WBA rekt PSX angries) (Fake names) =AmFakes
Realllly old thing about you? Being no less mature than a drunk cat during the last 2 Months of the EA Servers, called The_Gamer100 i used to play the storyline and once per week multiplayer because i didn't like it - sucked at it.
Original CQ class? Playing Mage was always a big part of my CNQ Career, felt so responsible for teammates and caring them with shield,fireball.
What got you involved in the CQ community? After i finished the storyline multiple times and played multiplayer now and then, the game literally dissappeard ( i didnt know what a forum was back then) so i had no connection with the players at all. Ending 2012 i searched on youtube how to play cnq online and stubbled upon John's Tunngle video, then finding John on xfire helped me configure the game and so it began.
My Greatest Weakness Dueling players. It's not in my blood, it never was.
Tragic CQ moment Defeat to DemonLord in 1v1 (archer) Olympics.
Dude you looked up to/respected? I actually used to respect everyone before PSX's days were over. People i can name though: Dark, Ronjons, John, Raj, Merlin, Lhii, DemonLord & Istari. (Now and then everyone though just not in the mood to mention all/most)
Your favorite/dying memory? After a Tripple or a Double on Mayhem's head in a CW, he blew my head afterwards.
Your wut moment Discovering the arrow glitch by being hit by it. Lol.
Clearing the air Causing trouble to the Community by trolling and worse. Apologizes!
One regret Never facing Darklion Pony in noscope duel.
One thing you're thankful for Theres nothing to be thankful, the Community i grew up with is the one i will always remember, thats not a reason to be thankful though, thats a reason to be happy for.

It's gonna be rough Something noob/annoying you used to do?Well, I don't know if there was somoething about the game, but its more about my behavior. I used to get ragy and trashy and nervous in some situations. I often lost patience. Eg. when I deleted forum after loss, so yeah that's the annoying thing of me, which I am sorry about. In case of game it would be probably too much axetagging in duels when I couldn't handle opponent. Realllly old thing about you?I started playing long ago, probably 3 months after the start of the game. Original CQ class?Originally I played archer a lot (lol) but when I joined KOTT, I saw that I am not good so I drove into warrior. What got you involved in the CQ community?The first time when I got invited to clan. Asked to join xfire, then it began, and so on when I was part of KOTT things got going on and on, and of course when EA shut their servers and when people started to rebuild community by hamachi and tunngle. Most of the time it was lovely for me to help with many things, forums, duels, tournaments. My Greatest WeaknessIts been already said here, but my behavior was my greatest weakness. That's why I am probably one of the most hated person in the game Ive been too much furious and trashy over time and that drove me into making poor mistakes. Tragic CQ momentIt was probably Olympics 2011 and all other Olympics, still not having any medal Dude you looked up to/respected?In the days of EA I looked up to Gothmog and Narsil who were like gods for me in warrior, after all I overcame them. In the second era I always admired how people play with other classes, like Dark or Mayhem in Archer, Angelus or Merlin in Mage, I also love the way how Frodosam plays the scout Your favorite/dying memory?My favourite moment was the TLF vs KOTT clan war played on Minas Morgul CTR, for like 2,5 hour, we lost there 6-4 but the match itself was amazing. I enjoyed pretty much all clanwars played over the years. Highlight goes to Army of 3 matches, that was cool event. I loved long range axe crit on May Your wut momentIts been every time I beat my nemesis... like finally beating Gothmog or Narsil, as well as winning with Henry, Tiberon, Angelus, Saburex (May You have the video or not), Istari, Taco and etc Clearing the airAs Ive already said, time ago I was pretty immature, but then time has changed and so myself. So there are people I insulted or trashed, so if any reads this, I am sorry for that. One regretI still regret manipulating in 2012 Oly, if I could turn the time back, it would be completly diffrent. One thing you're thankful forFor not being forgotten and for the invitation on 2020 revival
