Hi From Canada

I stumbled on this great site, and great community.

I'm an old gamer... late 30's and I greatly miss this version of UT. I played since day one, and had the pleasure of clanning with some of the best players I ever met. On that note, this is a total, and utter long shot, but one of the best players I ever played with was named Xero. I know there are tons of Xero's/Zero's out there, but this guy was probably the best UT CTF player I ever had the pleasure of gaming with until the mighty clan of "High Voltage" scooped him up. I wonder if he/they are still around?

I was never the 'best', but competitive at least.... I played with many clans, most lasting several years. I left UT a few times, but always came back, and even as versions changed, I still can't find the same pleasure from those versions that I got from good ol' 1999 UT.

It's great to see you guys have revived the holy grail of FPS gaming. Great job!

Hi Prot,
You'll find there are lots of "old" gamers here, like me for instance

Welcome to the site!

I wasn't a very good player. That's why I switched to mapping.

Hey Prot, Yea I'm still around here and there. I actually just reinstalled UT 99 a few months ago and I play a few 1v1's/TDM on occasion. CTF games are hard to find. I agree that nothing will ever top ut99.

I hang out on IRC: irc.gameradius.org in #tdmpickups usually on weekends.

Xero... I wondered if I'd ever run into you out here again. I guess High Voltage is completely gone?

CTF is out there... but the Europeans seem to be the only ones playing it.

I gave up and went to Global Agenda..... I really was getting exceptionally mediocre at it, then they patched it. (I haven't played since the massive upgrade).

UT is still a golden era in FPS for me. It's passed me by.... a lot of very good players seem to still play.

Welcome Prot!
Old? - you aren't that old!
I am currently 55.
I have known much older players also! - even in the 70's!

Oh, gameradius?
Never heard of this one. Are there many UT channels?
I thought that the most of UT community visits quakenet IRC..

Why did you unearth a nearly 8 month old thread with spam?
