Well I'm not sure if any of you have noticed but I haven't been on the server in a few days. I sold my desktop so that I could purchase a laptop. I'm graduating college in May and I figured it was time to get something more business ready and portable. I ended up buying that Toshiba, but took it back 3 days later and got the new Gateway. It's pretty sweet, (1gig ram, intel dual core processor, 256 shared video memory, 100gig HD, DVD burner, 14" screen) but probably not powerful enough to handle any solid gaming. I will obviously try to install Source but I doubt I'll have much luck getting my video settings to work with the card that's in my new computer.

Anyway I will try to hop on every once in a while on my buddy's computer when I get a chance, but other than that I might not be on much anymore. It's been fun playing with you all. I really have enjoyed my time playing the TG way, and hopefully in the near future I'll figure out a way to get CS:Source up and running again.

If you do see me on and I suck it's because my buddy has a stupid wireless mouse that I have a hard time controlling. So, please bare with me.


Cheers

Hope you make it back soon!

I've just started up again on TG and I've played a few games with you. I have to say that the games I've played were quite enjoyable ( not a bunch of kill frenzy pubbers running around) and I'de like to give thanks to you for being a good person to play with. Also I'll add that, well, i wish you success in your professional life, and I hope to see you around when you can make it.

lol well sadly enough i tried to play on the server today and i couldn't.. i had it in basic settings and everything. anytime i started running around a server it seemed as if my ping was 800 or something.. really choppy to the point i can't play. i know most of you won't really care but i did enjoy playing with all of you. i had a lot of fun playing with TG and all the PCS players.

i'm not tryin to make this a sob story or anything lol but i guess it's time to move on. i graduate in May and will start working. i also play baseball in college and my season is about to start so i need to be focusing on that. believe it or not im trying to get drafted this year and i think i have a pretty decent chance. i was all region last year and set a school record in single season doubles.. i've been training pretty hard for this season so we'll see..

i'll definitely keep up to date with you guys and try to play on my buddy's PC when i can.. i wish you all happy gaming and hopefully i'll be able to make it on sometime soon.

take it easy guys
