It had been a few weeks since our last
game and we were itching to get into another one.
Unfortunately, just before the game was to begin, Havok from
Dad's Army told us that the server had been hacked into and that
they would like to postpone. We suggested to play on the Zip clan
server, but that had already been upgraded to TF 2.8 and
QuakeWorld 2.21 and not everyone had upgraded yet. Anyway, Havok
managed to get the server back up but warned us that it could
crash again. We were keen for a game so we went ahead and played.
Playing at various stages of the game were Hetzer, Victim,
Fenrir, Mil, Mic, Tetsuo, Shilka and Grimm, but usually not all
at the same time. :-) Proto, Z, rj, Strafe and Karl were nowhere
to be found.
After a few server crashes, the game eventually got underway. We
started off in a very disorganised state, with only 6 people
playing. Hetzer, Fenrir and Victim protected our flag, while
Grimm, Shilka and Mil went on the hunt for D.A.'s. Even though we
were two down, we managed to hold our own and the score remained
at 0-0 for a while. Throughout the game we lost Victim, Grimm and
Fenrir at different stages, but also gained Mic and Tetsuo. Mic
joined the attackers and Tetsuo stayed back to help defend. After
getting through a couple of sentries, we managed to make the
first capture, but during the confusion of player dropouts, D.A.
fought their way through well to follow up with two captures of
their own and go to a 20-10 lead. Fortunately, Mic was able to
score again for us, taking us to a 20-20 draw. During the game,
Hetzer caught the enemies out with the incorrect change quite a
number of times.:-)
D.A. played a good game and showed that they are a force to be reckoned with. We look forward to the rematch on a more stable server, and hope to show them what a full-strength Loki side is capable of. :-)
Map score: Loki 20, D.A. 20.
Game score: 0-0 all draw.
