Firstly my apologies. Unfortunately the demo gives up at 15 mins so i ahve no late action to report :(

Anyways...on with the dissection...

Both clans had to put up with a lagged server, even the LPB's 999'ed at one point :(

UNR were off to their typical fast start, pulling out a 15-3 lead in the first few mins. Well done Luke m8..fast fragging there you little Animal.

It was at the 2 min marker that unfortunately SK lost Jan, who didn't rejoin until the 12th minute :(

UNR continued to frag steadily, having taken control of both RL's and the Railer very early on. This allowed us to pull out to a lead of 63 to 20 by the half way stage.

At this point it looked like the SK gameplan started to come together ...they held the frag difference to 40 from half way to the end :) This was partly due to Itzo (and various assistants) doing a good job of controlling the upper RL with the hyperblaster. The dood created a tunnel of death that i kept walking down..DOH !!

It looked like we were starting to take control again as the match finished. I would like to have seen what would have happened had we continued.


Tas got off to an uncharacteristic slow start but made up lost ground, finishing on 41, well ahead of everyone else :)

MAD STUFF THAT HAPPENED

Tas failing 2 RL jumps in a row to the Mega health and blowing himself up. Caught on camera dood :)

Luke getting trapped by Spawny in the lower RL tunnel..Luke dodges 4 grenades only to have the 5th get him just as Tas blows spawny away from behind to free him :(

Yaku..It's true what they say mate..you can't hit a stationary target with that railer...the demo shows you scoring frag after frag as the doods run around. Then when one guy stops still you have 2 shots at him and miss both!!

Me...falling for the Hyperblaster by top RL trick about 3 times in a row..I suck :(

Itzo....for the above trap :)

Well Done UNR, another convincing win..played all :))

M&M have not been coping well in division 1 this season. Because of this such Tas decided to field a UNR side comprising 2 match regulars (Yaku and Luke) and 2 less experienced match players (Skidlee and Juboy).

M&M started the match with only 3 men as Snook dropped. This allowed Luke and Yaku to make a typical UNR fast start to the match.

UNR took control of the RL area early on and held it for most of the match, having access to the weapon almost at will.

We controlled the Quad for the majority of the match, Luke doing an excellent job of timing his runs for it (you got a watch with a beeper Luke?). This helped keep M&M off balance.

Yakumo was on form with the railer (no surprise there), racking up the highest railer frags in the match. Having said that tho' he didn't have it all his own way, the other UNR doods all scoring well with it too.

With UNR in control of the Quad and Rocket launcher M&M had difficulty scoring frags against us. With this firepower levelled at them they had to run away a lot, leading to plunges into the Lava :(

By half way UNR were 45 - 6 ahead and totally in control.

Richy played well for M&M, scoring highest for the team, but with his team-mates unable to assist, his efforts were in vain :(

Final score: UNR 102, M&M 14

Stuff I saw in demos:

Yaku jumping Richy's rock to deliver a rail slug into him..cool move

Skid with the Rocket launcher...2 shots....2 frags in about a second.. including the time it took him to turn around :)

Luke being blasted while waiting on the Railgun platform..Doh!!

Skid..double rail..1 dood was carrying rocket launcher, the other the BFG :)

Juboy was our rocket meister, spraying 'em around like they were going out of fashion ;-)

Well played UNR, our commiserations to M&M who put up a good fight without a complaint :)

Luke played like an ANIMAL all game, chasing the coveted Tasan award for the most point blank frags with an explosive weapon ;-)

Woo Hoo.....A real cracker of a game this one, especially considering the reputation of this level!

After a few defeats at the hands of UNR Abfab were out for blood. They threw an all star line up at us - Alchy, Aerotek, Havoc and Oxygene, and with players like Cheese in as a reserve you know they mean business.

Just before the report proper I must mention that nearly all players were affected by lag at some stage during the game..one of the risks in online gaming :-(

On with the report...

Luke and Tas had a very slow (for them) start..taking some minutes to rack any real frags. Fortunately Insom had an unusually fast start having found the BFG sitting all alone within 5 seconds of starting ;-)

Up to nearly 10 mins into the game it was frag for frag all the way, with nothing separating the 2 sides. However about 8 - 9 mins in UNR took a convincing 36 to 23 lead. By the halfway point we had pulled ahead to 47 - 25 and it looked like it was gonna be a whitewash...BUT Abfab had other ideas!!

During the 10th to 15th minutes of the game Abfab took total control of the Railgun room and commanded the corridor above the Rocket launcher. Aerotek was in charge here and didn't we know it..some superb rails from him in this area (and all throughout the game in fact) :) During this time they pulled back to 49 - 61 cutting our lead in half in that 5 minute period.

UNR rallied against the comeback in the last 5 mins by stopping the Abfab charge. The frag difference in the last 5 minutes remained at about 12. Final score 73 - 62 to UNR.

This is a brilliant match to watch. If you want to see it contact Diabolic who has a demo of the game.

Our commiseration's to Abfab who's play in the middle section of the match was superb. Towards the end, however, Tas the UNR fragmeister got his act together and outfragged the rest of the team by 20 to 30%

I must say well done to UNR (and especially Rude) for taking more control of the quad on this level.

Noteable events:

Havoc dispatching Rude and his Quad SSG underwater with a deftly thrown handgrenade. Nice.

Insomniak Rocket jumping into the railer room to surprise Aerotek only to have Luke nick his frag by coming up the ladder and chucking a handgrenade at the abfab dood..bast ;-)

[APO] Rojan annoying everyone with his immature comments while 2 clans are trying to play a tight game :( I don't know why admin didn't kick him...

Luke chucking grenades up the ladder to the railer room and Fragging Aerotek. (I'm not picking on you aero..soz..just you got caught up in 2 funny events in our demo)

Well done UNR on another Div. 1 victory.

Could UKF improve on Season 2’s performance and finally beat one of their favourite rivals, UNR?…Meet you in the Warehouse dudes!

After a slow start, the match seemed to explode into a Minos style fragfest! Much of the action was around the Rocket Launcher with [UNR]Tasan, [UNR]Luke and [UKF]Reaper battling over its control. Despite a ping of over 300, [UNR]JuBoy did some excellent grenade work, keeping [UKF]Cham and [UKF]Spog on their toes whilst they tried to dodge [UNR]Yakumo’s dreaded Railgun!

For the last 3^rd of the match [UKF]Blufftrash almost matched Tasan kill for kill, actually finishing in overall 2^nd place with a score of 24….Tasan whipped up an amazing score of 40 (Tas you are a killing machine!) with some nice RL and RG work…twice he killed Bluffy under the moving boxes causing extended explosions!

A good 87 / 55 win to UNR over a very determined UKF…Well played both teams! Thanks to [UNR]Rude for an exciting demo..watch it :O)

A hectic start to season 3 with the matches changed to Mondays, Insomniak [;OP] swanning off on holiday, Tasan and Diabolic having to re-install Windows and Luke with a corrupted Quake2, it may have turned out to be an unlucky 13^th!
