    Oh yeah? He thinks he's so good? Well, I got the highscore in Ms. Pacman (a true crusader for womens' rights!) at the local arcade about 15 years ago!

    So there, Mr. Big-Shot Quake 3 player!

  4. He may have won, but.. by abischof · · Score: 3, Funny

    Ok, so he may have won... but does he have his own hardware review site? Kidding aside, it is quite an achievement.

  5. Sigh, if only... by DreamSynthesis · · Score: 2, Funny

    Gosh darn it, just the other day I got around to starting to serve Q3 Arena games from one of my Linux boxes... and promptly got my ass whipped most takers :).

    But wait! There's hope yet for my lamer, non-31337, self-cratering keister. I've come up with a simple plan to elevate myself to a similar level of Q3 God-ness:

    • 1. Ditch my company - Hey, it's fun making cash and all that, but I'll have to start somewhere, eh?

    • 2. Lose the girlfriend - Heck, what's she really good for anyhow? And just think of all the extra time I'll have (oops, that'll be sucked up by gaming).

    • 3. Forsake showers - In cyberspace, no one can smell your stench.

    • 4. Become a Quaker - Ughh... never mind, that's something different I suppose...
    Yesiree Bob, I figure if I can just buckle down and stick to my rocket launchers on this one, I'll acheive Quake greatness in a couple of years at the most!

    Or not.
