LAN?

James — Sat, 10 Mar 2007 12:58:58 +0000

Theres talk of a Quake LAN in Dublin in May.

Would you go? Post on Quake.ie if so. In other news, Spacey has a flying mount.

fh v Stoner

Spacey — Tue, 28 Nov 2006 11:25:47 +0000

fh played our latest game in JoltCTFL v Stoner on Sunday night. The first map was Q3W3. We had Killy Aly and me attacking and Vin and Bubs in defence. Everything was going well and we were 4-0 up when Vin completely jinxed us by saying “easy 9-0″ on comms. We immediately lost a cap and never capped again all game. The map finished 4-1.

The next map was CTCTF2 the most annoying map ever invented. Its about 20miles long! We tried to co-ordinate attacks but this proved impossible as when one of us died we usually spawend back at our side of the map and it took a good 2 mins to get back in the opposition base. To cap it all off (pardon the pun) we relaxed in the last 30 seconds allowing Stoner to sneak in for a cap with just 10 seconds left on the clock – oh the joys of cake

“mark it zero”

Jolt Q3CTFL Season 21

James — Mon, 06 Nov 2006 14:24:37 +0000

Thankfully we have been accepted into the upcoming season of Jolt Quake 3 Capture the Flag League. Our first game is on Sunday at 8.30 against familiar opposition, the Belgians Dimension X (DX!). The other teams in division 3 include:

The LSR-heavy st0ner (minus their powerhouse sn0)
Dutch team Last Resort
The artists formerly known as Yadegari now known as Grand
A European team that I have never seen before called dark Saga (dRs)

This means that we are looking for games to get back into the swing of things.

Does Vin suck? (Vin sucks!)

Spacey — Thu, 02 Nov 2006 01:33:39 +0000

Apparently Vin was drunk during these games!

Broadband Soon…

I have moved to Dublin, and SOON will have proper broadband. Watch this space… (dead!)

WCG LAN

Spacey — Mon, 25 Sep 2006 15:31:44 +0000

Went to WCG lan with killy Vin CBS – PPC MP Giblet Pyro etc.. was great set up. We had some great games of q3 including a CTF game with me and vin giblet Jazzy V killy CBS Pyro Dan – killys team won 4-3 due to cheating and stuff. We also had an official fh 2v2 chamionship game on ZTN killy+CBS v Spacey+Vin which me and vin won quite comfortably and a friendly kick around on prodm6 – cant remember who won that. All in all a great day out. I got in the Sunday Tribune about it too

Welcome to Rapp

The newest member of the greatly extended FH family.
Apparently he is as abusive as Norm when drunk.

YAY!! \o/

FH is Now Playing Warsow

James — Sat, 10 Jun 2006 16:39:26 +0000

Quake 4 didn’t work out – it was impossible on ISDN, there wasn’t much of a community, it was too hard to get games, and basically it kind of sucked. We’re going to give Warsow a bash with the following line-up confirmed thus far:

	killy
	Vinnit
	dest
	cbs
	Spacey
	Rapp
	Nex
	Windowlicker
	Redemption
	Dardoz
	Jazzy

Not taking it too seriously but going to give it a try to see how it goes, and hopefully there’ll be enough of us enjoying it to last for a league or two. Welcome to the new members – Redemption and Jazzy are from my UT2k4 Clan (tms), and Dardoz and Windowlicker need no introduction I think. New website – I’ll update all the old news archives. Give us a shout in #fh on Quakenet if you want a game.
