FIOS Grand Tournament - 2006

NA 1v1 Tournament held in mid-2006 sponsored by Verizon

1st - Micah "Micahwave" Ernst
2nd - Scott "[~$W~] Mario 64 Master" Rogoff
3rd - Zachariah "[VDuS] drag0?" Kendall
4th - Kenny "[~$W~] Moose On Da Loose" Wells
5th - Brian "[~$W~] motion_k" Kihneman
6th - Dominic "oozy" Anderson
7th - Richard "{WRW}Dirk Diggler" Oliver
8th - Stefan "[~$W~] Rubber Soul" Hock

Anyway we can identify who is who? I recognize modal, drago, and dirk, but that's it.

Starting with Micah (blue shirt) going clockwise, Fios rep, Motion_K, Rubbersoul, Fios guy, Drago, Mario 64, Modal, Dirk, and Oozy.I just found this pic in my old fios folder, thought this was a good place for it.

Clockwise- Micahwave (l. Blue shirt), Bali Cruz, MotionK, TLC (Rubbersoul), some FIOS guy, Drago, Mario 64 Master, Modal, Dirk, and Oozy.

Bali cruz? What would he be doing there in that picture. I'm going off of memory and its been awhile but maybe someone who was there can clarify.

If i remember right, it was posted at VDus and Bali Cruz was friends with a few of them and lived close by and came by to party with the guys.

I don't think that is Bali Cruz. Isn't there another pic of him handing over the check for $100K?

yeah there was, and any spectators weren't allowed in this area anyway nor in a top 8 pic. I guess he could be a verizon FIOS rep, but I remembered somewhere that it said he was a CAL Admin

lol

the CAL admin (CPL|Chris) looked something like this



i swear when i first saw this episode of south park i thought they modeled this guy after poor Chris

Bali Cruz was there for a few minutes I think, but he's not in that picture. I talked to him for like 10 seconds. IIRC he is mexican looking, kind of darker skinned.

And here's a picture with the admin ChrisM for reference:

Though the picture doesn't do him justice...

The 3 women and the 2 guys in white shirts in the top row are all Verizon people, or at least some kind of reps for them.

Thanks guys, uh since impala disagreed with oozy and motion K which is which?
TLC that cartoon pick had me lmao!

oozy is bottom left

Which one is joo tlc? I'm curious to see what DM Gods look like...^^That picture apparently.

TLC is top row 2d on the right.
Someone should post the photo with Modal stretched up ten feet tall. Dirk is shrunk and its hilarious.

[18:12] <@ChanServ> [wRw^ninojman^rL] <wRw|ninojman> Link to above image <DirkDiggalopotamus> that is a pic of one hungover gamer <DirkDiggalopotamus> thast the day after defeat ;D <wRw|ninojman> w/o any samiches <DirkDiggalopotamus> ya the furry litle fuck stole it!

There were not any assholes in the bunch truthfully. Everyone got along well I thought. The only assholes were those fugly ass PMS chicks who thought they were hot shit imo. Oh and w/e idiot in L.A. who closed stores that sell beer by 10pm, I mean, come on, wtf.


P.S. That's one handsome fella playing CS with the club sandwich next to him

Everybody was cool as shit, even Dom's Gf. I related to Dirk and Oozy the most. Zach is quiet but really funny when you get in a conversation with him. Scott, Rich, and Stefan were funny to hit on the PMS girls with. Brian was just so excited to meet everyone, he helped make the trip a blast. Micah was just kinda there, answered questions, spoke a little, went out and had a few beers with us.. but overall, he was there on business.

Sidenote: The night after the first day of playing, Micah told us he was having his friend pick him up to go out in LA, so Dirk and I were like hell yeah, let's roll. So we went out shot some pool and had 40oz 3ft tall super liquor drinks and after three a piece, Rich and I decided to make our way around the surrounding bars to see what was up. Long story short, not much going on, woulda had more fun going out around our way (hit me up rich) but... we did watch some drunk bitch ride a bull and bust her ass while we got the beautiful no panties, upside down, crotch shot. Owned bitch! Then the next night we drank again and while we were in front of our hotel after the bar, havin a cigarette, this guy and girl walk up and start sparking a conversation. (4am mind you) and he's like I'm holdin, you all tryin to come back to my place? We look at each other and we had planned on stayin up cause we both had 6am flights home, and we're like do we go have fun, or do we go and get raped and murdered by these crazy freaks? Well, I'm still here so I guess I took the third option, kindly listened to their horseshit stories, went and got a shower, and flew home. BEST PLANE SLEEP EVER!!#!@$4

strangers have the best candy, i would have gone if i was you but then again thats just me.

HAHA yeah I forgot about that Kenny. That chick's tit fell out remember that? It woulda knocked me out if it was a headshot. And I think the dude that was holding was more interested in us than that chick. The bull riding at Universal Studios was hilarious too. I think we we're drinking some big ass blue concoction that was taller than me. The hotel was having a high school reunion there that night too. Had my eye on this older brunette but no play for Dirky
Stefan and I escorted a few young ladies to their room, but I left him to fend for himself ( never did hear how that turned out). And yes I'd say Micah was there purely on business.He told me a funny story about walking down the boardwalk afterwards, carrying a $100,000 check and trying to find a little, uh, stuff . I fell asleep about 5AM, was woken up at 615 by the hotel clerk saying the shuttle driver had been waiting 45 mins for me and I BARELY made my flight. Ended up being seated next to a cute girl from NY who gave me her phone number and asked if I wanted to get a drink when we landed in NY, but I only had 20 mins to catch my flight home. Denied AGAIN. All in all a very good time And I would have gone too Blas, we just really didn't have time.

then

does motion k attend teh univeristy of texas? :O

Will it be some final video on this page
http://www.hl2dm-university.com/frag_videos.htm ?

Sure, it's a big deal...
Will waiting for other videos, hope they're so amazing too

Verison doing a North American tourney?

How absurd...

no Canadians could play either, wonder if having kurtz, mertz, toad and lloyd in the mix would have changed how the top 8 looked.

kurtz and mertz were actually Siamese twins playing keyboard and mouse together.

disqualified.

really? i see youre an idiot. the contraction couldn't means "could not" if he would of said "no Canadians couldn't play...." then that would mean they could. congratulations we all know how stupid you are now, ty.

well, i think Dal mis-read Blas' statement regarding north americans being able to play. Blas said, "no canadians could play either,....." i think Dal read it as "no, canadians could play either" in which case the couldnt he added would make sense.

that is true chem, but dallas is still stewpid

Hmmm I never did finish converting those demos...

I read it as chem said. If you would like to get technical...


you're*

and "he would of said" should be "he would HAVE said"


Thanks though.

yes i knew the "you're" was wrong

of and have are synonymous in this case

you read it as chem. suggested, congratulations, you can't read, and you're still an idiot

What did I say dude. Go troll the L4D University.
Edited to remove gay porn, which WT obviously watches.
One more link like that and you're** a beautiful man.

MEH darned if you upload the demos, darned if you don't. I watched most of the finals demos nothing really special, Micahwave played mind blowingly careful, boring, consistent and didnt make mistakes. Thats how most pros win 1v1s in Quake too so, tis what it is

"of and have are synonymous in this case"

They are not synonymous.
Of is a preposition. He could HAVE ... is correct.
AND
No Canadians COULD have played is also incorrect. It is a negative followed by an positive assertion.
It SHOULD HAVE been -Canadians couldn't play

omfg thought I'd went to a real uni site for a moment- anyhoo

A panda walks into a bar. The bartender says "hey, we don't serve pandas here." But the panda says "Just give me something to eat, and then I'll go." The bartender says "Oh, all right." So the panda eats the food that the bartender gives him. So the bartender says, "OK, now you have to leave." But the panda says "Oh no I don't." and pulls out a gun!!! and pow! pow! shoots up the bar. The Panda starts to leave. The bartender says "Hey! you can't just leave after shooting us!" the panda says "Oh, yes I can, tosses a badly puntuated dictionary over his shoulder and says "im a panda look me up ." The panda leaves and the bartender gets out a dictionary and looks up panda. It says: "Panda - eats shoots and leaves."
