Trying to support this page a bit, I added the option to add Polls! Means if you need the opinion of Warsowians on maplists, gametypes for competitions or other Warsow-related stuff, make a poll! Embed polls in your post by creating them in the admin panel and typing the poll id in your posts to display it. The latest poll will also be displayed in the sidebar!

Next to that, I have added a new category, called ‘Spam‘. If you need to promote your competition, your website, your map in the making, or anything else; make a Spam post!

Yeahh, taking Warsow community blogging to the next level! Lovesow.net just got Web3.0-ized!

After getting my 24/7 internet connection on my sweet HTC S710 (which supports push email, multiple accounts, windows live services integrated), and discovering the amazing world of mobile websites, I figured lovesow couldn’t stay behind! Having the frontpage weighing in at a fat ~100/200kb, my phone was struggling with opening it.

Day 1

Starting out on Friday, I sadly couldn’t make it on time. Shamefully having emailed all participants to be present at around 11 am, I managed to show up at 7.10 pm! Unfortunately, I didn’t miss much at all, because there were no PC’s available for Warsow! Can you imagine, people taking their fridays off, leaving their girlfriends sick at home, only to show up on the other side of Holland, at the border of the end of the world, to find out there was no possibility of actually playing matches! Sad times.

Anyway! I met up with the usual suspects (tourneys are beginning to feel like reunions, in a good way); h1o, marrk, scoobz, jannis, A_Spec and Rikku, with special-guest star, all the way from Germany – mister pillz - also known as pielz, pillemann, pillzemann, or anything in between. Potatoes and Poki are his best friends, more on that later.

I fell in love.
I fell in love with fighting games.
I fell in love with 2D fighting games.
I fell in love with 3D fighting games.

I have been playing fighting games in the past, but not with such a passion as I do now. The gameplay is so dynamic, sometimes you gotta play turtle (defensive) and sometimes you gotta play pitbull (offensive). The key to success is to switch gears. It’s such a pleasure to let your opponent despair when he’s playing the pitbull and trying to hit you for fucking sake, but you are blocking, dodging or parrying every single punch, every single kick and every single throw. I really like to play turtle style.
No matter what game I am playing, I always play the defender role (you might know this if you have played CTF with or against me).
Well that’s true for 90% of the time. The other 10% are when I rapidly switch from defence to offence, it’s pretty surprising for my opponent and it breaks his routine. He has been attacking like a maniac and only a low percentage of his attacks hit, suddenly he’s in the defensive role and he doesn’t know what to do (unless he is experienced). Some will forget about blocking and get hit by almost all attacks, getting killed very quickly. Some will continue attacking, not knowing a thing about frame advantage (Frame advantage is when one of your attacks gets blocked, you’re either in frame advantage or disadvantage, meaning you are able to either attack more or less quickly than your opponent).

There’s one game where I play a different style though, it’s called King of Fighters (KoF). In KoF, no matter which version I play, I play 60% aggressive and 40% defensive. I don’t know why it is like that, there’s just something mysterious about KoF, but I guess that turtle style is much harder to pull off. It’s a pretty fast

In the past couple of days I’ve updated quite a bit on lovesow. After first losing the custom default theme (with an update of wordpress, dont fiddle around with default theme and then update wordpress), and having Lovesow use the new default lame theme for a couple of days/weeks (can’t remember). I’ve finally found an old backup of the custom theme back (on another pc), renamed it/put it in a new folder, and started tweaking it.

The posts should be less cluttered now (no categories, messy dates, but all info on the post under the title, with amount of comments right next to it instead of under the post, etc.). Probably not things you’ll notice, but anyway! To hell with default kubrick theme, go on custom lovesow kubrick theme!

Also, I’ve pimped the sidebar with some widgets, such as the wonderfully nostalgic ‘Random Fun’ (5 random posts), the wall-of-fame list of usernames with amount of posts. Anyway that´s it, just a heads up and a little still-alive-and-kicking-post. Keep the content coming!

choo choo!

Stardom is once again confirmed

Check out your favourite Warsow superstars: ETR, dezje, zkyp, tom, marrk and ollipop in the extensive gallery of the 2nd installment of the zissou-meet series! Featuring an exclusive pre-viewing of 2ndpass.avi, aka tom´s movie.

Discuss.

Yeah that’s right! After spotting last.fm’s funky widgets, I decided to put up the last.fm’s Warsow Group’s radio on Lovesow, for your streaming pleasure! It’s hard to miss, on the righthand side of this post. Ofcourse, like yourself, I am disgusted by the lack of french hiphop, minimal techno, jazzy hiphop and cool electronical music. Anyway, it made sense to me to put up the community’s radio station on a community blog 8). But please, go ahead and make an account on last.fm, join the Warsow group, and do your best to push out some of that horrible emocore, metal and punkrock! Aiaiaiaiaiaa §§§§

What’s just coming up there?

In case you get cut off from the internet for a longer period, do not turn on your TV. It’s fucking evil! It sucks you in like the big vacuum from Spaceballs. If you haven’t seen it yet, go for it! It’s classic.

What I’m trying to say is that once you watch an episode of those TV series that end with a cliffhanger… BAM! Game over! Drawing dead! It’s like the World of Warcraft effect, which fortunately did not eat my brains.

So now I’m sitting here, addicted to Lost, 24, Nip/Tuck, Weeds,
Prison Break and Grey’s Anatomy. I just can’t stand missing one episode, it drives me nuts!

But what are your alternatives?

Go read some books or eat a sandwich. Even watching movies is an alternative, because they FUCKING END!

But the best thing you can do is to dig out your mapping/texturing/modeling/coding tool and contribute to Warsow. Or just get some vaseline and start wanking.

I’m out!

6th may of 2007. For most this was a normal day. Only a small part of the warsow community, let alone the world, knows about the turbulence this day has presented. To protect the privacy of everyone involved, the names have been replaced with fictitious names.

It all started fairly laid back. Maybe because of the weather… maybe because of the fact that it is a sunday. However, the peace was abruptly disturbed with the occurence of one - what at first sight appears to be a small clan-transfer - by snepcase from Square Arranges to Team Zissau.
snepcase and billeman joined Team Zissau, who had to make up for the loss of k1o, who was kicked from the clan for unclear reasons.

(log from #team-zissau)
* ATR\\\\\\\\\\\\ sets mode: +oo billemann snepcase

The consequences of this would spread around quickly. First of all, in #sawar (squarearranges’ private chan), Zufo and Narrk asked snepcase why he joined Zissau before informing the rest of SA.

This happened in a way that got quickly out of hand and hence snepcase was kicked. Luckily he could fall back to Zissau. However, the fact that this happened, led to a discussion between enl, narrk and Zufo, which for still unsure reasons led to enl parting #sawar. enl wasn’t happy the way zufo and narrk expressed their feelings towards how snepcase handled.

(log from #sawar)
* L sets mode: +o enl
* enl was kicked by enl (!)

However, at around the same time, ton went loco on snepcase in #team-zissau. He couldn’t agree with letting snepcase join the lineup. In his opinion, Team Zissau is more of a group of friends then a clan.

<tonzissau> wait what
<tonzissau> snepcase is in zissau?
* tonzissau sets mode: +b *!*@my.ircbox.eu
* snepcase was kicked by tonzissau (snepcase)
* tonzissou has left #team-zissau

narrk, who has been called the coach of Team Zissau, tried to be witty about all that happened, which led to ATR banning narrk.

<narrk> i say that this clanhopping isn’t the way ppl should behave
<narrk> i agree to your choice tho
<narrk> but the way you did it isn’t good
<ZISSAUATR> narrkemo
* ZISSAUATR sets mode: +v Zufo
<narrk> so I’m making you run 500 laps around wdm1
<narrk> good?
<narrk> GO!
* ZISSAUATR sets mode: +b *!*@g131193.upc-g.chello.nl
* You were kicked by ZISSAUATR (rofl ;))

At that same moment, there was a hefty discussion in #sawar about the same kind of problem. Some stated that it was not clear what Square Arranges actually was. Was it more of a clan, or more of a place to hang out with fellow Warsow Players?

In #team-zissau, narrk was unbanned by ton, who kicked both snepcase and bille, the two who would supposedly have joined to replase k1o. To demonstrate the fact that Zissau is more of a friends group than a clan he opped narrk, who has been a longtime visitor of the chan and who attended the latest clan meeting.

It all cooled down when ton decided to play for Team Zissau in the cup, so their lineup is complete again. For Square Arranges however, outlooks aren’t that good. Not everyone has had the time to comment on what happened, so the future is unsure.
This led to some magnificent Topics in #squarearranges

[20:46] * Zufo changes topic to ‘Square Arranges :: Thought of the day: Can a clan that doesn’t exist have existential problems?’
