Whiplash wrote:But as I said that was years ago - recently I've had more time to play DX, and I think I've got better. Not the best ever, but pretty good, well above average at least. During a game of 0 Aug play about a week or two ago there was this godlike player called Kiki on the other team who was pulverizing the opposition (my team). I was one of the few that was able to challenge her (I assume it was a she) and broke one hell of a streak where she was getting "Kiki is Godlike" on that UT announcer streak counter thing every few seconds. As the match concluded, ome of the other players on my team were like "wow Whiplash you're really good, none of us have been able to kill Kiki."

Not something I had expected, but fair enough.

Application topic wrote: (...)
There is NO point to apply if we don't know each other. We base our opinions of players from what we see on our forums and in our servers, not in their applications. Application is merely a formality and the members confirming an acceptance into [FGS]. Do not apply if most members don't know you or you are not already a regular on our forums.

Please note that [FGS] is not officially recruiting at the moment. This means we have enough fighters, mappers, editors and technical staff for our needs. Naturally, applications are never thrown back automatically, but we only make exceptions in very special cases. We are looking for dedicated people with talent or proven potential who can help us to further our activities, whether that be an exceptional fighter and mentor, an expert mapper, or an inventive coder. Today [FGS] doesn't consider exceptional in-game skills an important reason to accept applications. We're much more like a group of scientists who fight to keep this small community alive with everything we have. Remember this when applying for [FGS]
