  1. Get that extra 10, precious fps you know... Every little bit counts :P And I play stretched... but want to move to Le shroud res as soon as I get new setup.

  3. "Hey guys, I unboxed my second knife!" "Fuck your luck, I hate you so much" "I was actually thinking of giving it to you... but oh well" "Really? Aww, thanks man I'd love that :) " " :dumb: "
  4. ZackonPCin1080p :whistle: Hopefully I get my new PC soon but for now and to stay on topic...
  5. I was part of organizing a petition to bring ESEA to SA in August last year. The agreement was that if we could get 100 signatures, ESEA would bring their services to us. The petition ended up getting 260 signatures and they were about to start setting up servers and the lot until, in traditional South African style, a local telecom company fucked it up and the dream never materialized. I've since asked FaceIt, ESEA again and this new PopFlash business. I'd estimate that if we were to start a petition now for a 3rd party service to come here, we'd receive nothing short of 1000 signs. In fact, the CSGO scene is unbelievably huge in SA right now but the problem is we are all restricted to shitty, 64-tick and silly timers on MM servers. (Anti-cheat is not really a problem as I've only come across >5 cheaters in my 800 hours of playtime). We do have 3 pick-up servers that are 128-tick but that's hardly convenient now is it? I'm just incredibly frustrated that we are neglected in such ways and then get laughed at when our best team is demolished at ESWC/DHW... with such pathetic resources, how are we expected to perform if not outperform the rest of the world. Oceania, East Asia and South America all have FaceIt too for goodness sake :( /rant
  6. "Waste" :dumb: I'd give my organs to have a 3rd party client based MM service in South Africa. Valve MM is man-made i love youin a box...

  11. Calling out Bosnian on his ability to play the game when you play like a (pre-VAC wave) Nova 4... Joking around or not :dave:
  12. Tilak moved to EU/NA confirmed? :O
  13. Hey siikdUde, I love quoting insanely long posts and only replying with one word of my own too, but first I think... ...
  14. Gratz, but I'm afraid the ranking system is incredibly muddled up at the moment in that newly made (post-vac-ban-wave) MG's play like others did in Silver... Wait wtf am I talking about ranks mean shit...
  15. I'll risk it...

  17. From someone other than Tilak whose been there done that... the high ping's disadvantages farrrr outweigh the advantages such as so called "peekers' advantage" rofl. Teleporting only happens with unstable high ping :D

  22. \/\/elcome to the forums :D Enjoy at your own risk...
  23. Thought I might as well hop on the food wagon :davehair: Although we have an array of unique South African dishes I only find a few to be attractive. In fact, I eat more like all the Brits that posted on here than I am about to post haha. Probably down to me being South African, but not Afrikaans or isiXhosa or one of the "authentic" ethnic groups inhabiting SA :D Bobotie: A delicious mixture of mince (we usually use Beef although traditionally some type of buck like Springbok (Gazelle)), spices and vegetables, some even throw raisins in! Topped with an egg-based, savoury custard and baked until golden with Bay Leaves implanted on top. Milk Tart (Melk Tert): An Afrikaans creamy dessert consisting of your basic tart ingredients, a sweet pastry and simply with an emphasis on the milk part ^^ Sprinkled with Cinnamon after baked/refrigerated. Malva Pudding: A spongy, caramelized pudding smothered with Apricot Jam after baking and served hot with Custard and/or Ice-Cream. Incredibly rich and for that reason, I don't go near it :P Boerewors: Spain and Portugal have Chorizo, we have Boerewors translating from Afrikaans as "Farmer's Sausage". Just a mixture of coarsely ground meat (can be Beef, Kudu, Springbok, Ostrich, Lamb) and a lot of spices. If it's not cooked on the braai (Afrikaans for Barbecue) it ain't Boerewors! Biltong: Same vibe as Boerewors, Biltong is heavily spiced dried meat. (Originated from old preserving techniques.) It can be made from once again, Beef, Kudu, Ostrich, Springbok and sometimes Gemsbok (Oryx). You could say it is slightly, very slightly similar to Jerky or whatever that shit is... Thanks for making this thread, as a foodie it was very interesting reading through all your cultural foods and I hope you enjoyed mine. This took especially long because my net was so bad, I couldn't even load Google :dumb:
