Greetings all.

My thanks to Cygnus for sponsoring me and to Tommy for setting up the account.

Some basics about me....

My name is Rob and I live in Sydney Australia. Believe it or not, I'm 50 - which proves that men never really grow up! I have two teenaged kids (both girls) who have no interest in online gaming whatsoever.

I've been messing about with computers for 2 decades but really only got into gaming in the last few months when I bought the Unreal Anthology on an impulse at Christmas time. Only been online gaming since December 2007. Mainly on local (Australian) servers which don't allow camping. I got tired of running around like a headless chicken blasting away at people who had aim-bots (which I don't have), so began playing in sniper mode when no-one else was on the server (just bots to shoot at). Decided it was for me... so went looking to see if there were any camping servers.

I came across DOU completely by accident about a month ago (typed in 'Unreal Camping' on a Google search and there you were). I very much enjoy the place although I have to admit my average ping sometimes drives me nuts. I like that the place runs on a level playing field with no aim-bots and other little helpers. Skill and reflexes count (which explains why I suck so badly). I also like that a lot of the players take the time to explain things - including sharing some of the best spots. I enjoy it so much that this is now the only server I play on and I'm here every day (work and/or parenting commitments permitting of course).

If nothing else, you should get excited when I arrive because you just know your 'gimme' frag rate is going to soar! Until I get a lot better, you'll all reap the benefits ! LOL

I look forward to joining the Clan and being an active member.

See you on a map soon!

Regards Rob

(I'm not camping... I'm hiding!!)

Welcome Rob! 😀

Great to have someone that appreciates the camping style on board.

Remember, sniping = good. Reedemers = gay. Just ask Tommy.

Before I join in on this... just how scared should I be of Tommy?? I had a great line to add to the emerging "X = Good, Y = Gay" theme, but I don't want to get banned before I even settle into the comfy chair.... 🙄

Of course, not that there's anything wrong with being gay... not that I am. I'll still shoot you Tommy... (on the server of course) I'll shoot anyone regardless of race, color, creed or sexual orientation. Anything for a cheap frag! 😯

As you can see, we are great mathematicians!

What do Tommy + Redeemers equal?? (Tommy's answer to this does not count) 😛

Welcome to our servers and forums! I hate that your ping is really high, but we have people from all over the world play on our servers, so maybe we can help get yours to a manageable level.

I ride a Suzuki Hayabusa (GSX1300R). To balance owning the world's coolest bike, I drive the worlds un-coolest car - a SAAB.

I think I'm the only Australian who doesn't drink. Never got started, too old to bother starting.

I suffer from the delusion that I'm funny and spend far too much time typing quick one-liners... and getting shot in the process. I'll either have to learn to type faster, or duck.

Thanks all for your kind welcomes.

Welcome Astro

40 to 50 y.o. men probably are the most interesting for UT player women, because we know lot about them and so it is very easy to kill them...

😯

😀

See you...

P. S. How many y.o. has Tommy?
