well i just wanted to let you guys know that i am going to officially retire from UT2k3 for a while...im becoming tired of the servers out there and the lack of real competition. have no fear though! i will still be playing, i am going to go back to playing UT99 ctf matches (my first love). i am better at that anyway. so, as of last night i have reinstalled original UT and played my first matches. this will end a 7month vacation from UT99 that was strictly focused on UT2k3.....however, i still have ut2k3 installed and may play some instant action every now and then for something differet, so it is not an official "official" retirement...ill still be accessible and be around the messageboards so if you guys ever do need anything or want some tips or someone to practice with you can still give me a holla and i will try to stop playing UT99 and hop in with you fellas for a bit...its just most of the other gummis still play a lot of UT99 and i miss playing with them, so im back to join the ranks.
well, just wanted to let you guys know, i had a good time playing some matches with ya....
for any doubters, here is a link to a screenshot from my very first game back, it was nt that great but hey, it was my FIRST game, give me a break!

Well then Red,
You know you are always welcome, and I am sure that we will see each other now and again.
You have been a great help to us with everything that we have tried to accomplish.
I would like to thank you for all of your help, and that goes for the rest of the Gummi's also that have taken time to practice with us and beat our heads in :rofl:
We'll see you out there man!
Salud,
Diss

I really didn't play too much 2k3 except with you guys and once in a while with Red on KGB... I'm still a hardcore UT99 guy but I gotta say that you guys make playing 2k3 more fun than it normally would be... I just don't really care for it, but playing with a bunch of classy, respectable guys makes it worth my while... although I'm pretty much a striaght up ut99 guy I'll definitely keep playing with y'all once in a while
