For whatever reason I was thinking about the many evenings I wasted away with the CS crew from here many years ago. Are any of you still about?

Neanderthal
Buzz (moved to Aus)
Giles
Mike
Blowdog
Ghostdog
others that I can't remember.....?


I even thought about doing re-install.

Still partial to a game of CS:S (although I recall we played 1.6 back then?)


Puff the magic basecamper is missing from the list

Ah yes, Puff, he still frequents this place. I guess you install from Steam these days?

Yep - all driven by Steam. It will ask for your original key most likely.

I have it (CS:GO) to play with some colleagues in Denmark but find it is not near as good as BF4, or am I just playing the wrong maps?

Should be able to get hold of Cem quite easily, not so sure on GD. Anyone know where Mike Griffin(?) is these days?

Didn't Norm play for a while as well?

Norman D Landing - yes

Mike (Griffith) has moved to Wales, though still works in London I think. Have a load of XSTi on fb, though Ghostie is pretty quiet these days.

We got told to take our CS discussions elsewhere when somebody complained that we were making too many postings in the Computers section. So we did.

I will do a reinstall this weekend, better get some practice in if this happens. I've also dropped a note to buzz on LinkedIn.

Talking Crikey I still have a login

But not a Scooby any more. From Red (outside the old house) back to "Oxford Blue" (Cybill in the garage).

Gave up on CS for a few years, my reactions are too slow and always aim too low or tend to rattle the mouse when I fire. At least that's what I tell all the girls...

Have been playing at CS:GO deathmatch maps (and have forgotten how to play the actual game!) :-) Using my son's tag "Bull**** Man". If you get the right crowd on you can laugh til you cry but sometimes, like a porcupine, it's full of ******.

Played some TF2 which is a proper laugh and nobody seems much bothered about who wins, if indeed anyone does. Most of the other Steam games don't come near to the laughs you can have on CS though!

In terms of recidivists, what about Hopper aka "the kraut with a Scout" Ben from Augsburg iirc, a bunch if the crew went off to Oktoberfest with him.

Hazza, who had the richest wife in the world (Swiss)... and the Sweary Serb erm his name will come to me...

Budokan, Little Budo and Betty?

Bl!nder. Orbv. King Ping.

Ryno and Rynojr?

Can't find any XSTi or such on FB so I set up XSTi Counter Strike group come and join!

Oh and "Powaah to the peepaall"...
