|-210| Cup #1

Alright guys... So I'm organizing another cup for our clan. I hope we can all pitch in and help! That would be great, especially considering our different timezones.

This is an NORTH AMERICAN cup - Prozak/Superman Servers | 18:00 (6 PM) Eastern Standard Time (Eastern American Time) | etc. - so sorry thai and all the European DP players, this cup's not for you. Although, |-210| Cup #2 will be 18:00 (6 PM) Central European Time, so it's good news for Europeans in the future.

I have made a draft on DP - here, you guys can look at it. (The font styles are different in my draft)

[DRAFT] **Copy and Paste to DP Forums if you like**

Removing inactive players + Great match

As Thai has pointed out, there are a few clan members who have not been around in-game recently. One week from now, I propose to kick:

- razz3r (a.k.a. evidence)
- Hogmans
- Grizly

However, if any of the above members comment on this post before the 4th of February, I won't kick them. Also, all members are welcome to re-join the clan if/when they become active again.

A match I played today was one of the most exciting I've had in quite a while. It was extremely close, and despite not being too active lately, insta played extremely well - especially on xbmap where I presume sequal trained him extensively =P





Oh - something is wrong with my settings as well I think - I have no idea why the screenshots are so bright, so I'll have to play around with some of the display settings. (Edit: Fixed it, I had applied my display settings to screenshots).

Should |-210| Open Up A Training Clan?

Well, there's a rule that jitspoe allows that allows a clan to have a training clan after a year that the clan has been created.

And a lot of newer players have been asking me to be in Liquid Nitrogen, but they're a little too newbie to try out, plus I don't have the time to try them out.

Do you think we should have a training clan?
If so, what's the...
- Clan Tag?
- Requirements?
- Clan Name?
- Trainees That You Have In Mind To Recruit?
- etc.? (More ideas suggested will be put here)

After our 1-year anniversary, the leaders of Liquid Nitrogen could create a training clan on the members' requests! Speak up and make your decision!

News

Well... This part may be empty - if we're talking about |-210|. But there has been some news about other things.

- FusSioN left .rGN. for some reason about not being a good leader
- omni = BANNED | :( BAN HERE ): |
- MaTzeMR = Ban Incoming? | 1st Account . 2nd Account |
- Superman's updated his server rotation and is currently fixing map .ent files

I'll keep making news updates about other things, and I guess noturning can make news updates about the clan.

Fight on Liquid Nitrogen!

Update

Hey guys, the blog, the clan, and paintball have been pretty quiet lately. Over the last couple of weeks, I've played a couple of matches with rGn, though they have been few and far between. Pugs seem to be the main order at the moment, with actual clan matches being a rarity.

Although I've looked for new members, I've found that most players either (a) are not up to skill, or (b) are comfortably in other clans. This makes it hard to bring the activity up, especially during the school semester where the player base is smaller. So, right now Liquid Nitrogen isn't as active as I'd like.

I'd really like to push through and keep the clan active until our one year anniversary next month. After that, I may consider shifting the clan status to 'on hiatus'. I won't be going anywhere, but I'll be considering the current period as 'downtime' - probably until the next school break. Once the game becomes more active again, so will the clan. I haven't completely decided on this yet, and I'll be talking to Lazers about it too.

So to summarise: -210 isn't going anywhere! I'll be pushing for the next month to keep us active, as I'd love to make it through to the one year mark. After that, we might have a quiet period until the summer break.

Another consideration is the introduction of another leader. Many of the members in this clan have been with us for a long time, so I'm open to anyone who wants to step up. This includes insta, thai, say, choice etc. Let me know if any of you guys would like to be a leader and do some recruiting.

My First Match - Good Ol' Days

I was looking through my files, and I found a picture of the first match I ever did. It was a 2s with  Hawaiian and Choice on my server, when I first opened it. It was pretty close; I was 1v2ing Hawaiian and Choice and was losing 49-45, and then Matze came in and took the game away. What a game. And, ignore the noname. He came right at the end.

Match #2 w/ rGn


I go pretty alright on destiny...


..but I suck pretty hard on wob!


(Yeah, you can figure out how poorly I did by calculating my K/D from the other scores lol)

Thai, I think you're right - you are the only active -210 member in Europe. Are there any players you'd like to bring to the clan so you have others to match with? If they're friends of yours and come with your recommendation, I'll accept them without tryout.

Liquid Nitrogen Anniversary Party

Just figured this out a while ago....

Liquid Nitrogen was created by heisenberg and hogmans, right? On February 18, 2014, only a month away! Why don't you guys make a party? An anniversary party? Or if you can't move it on Saturday...... So the Americans can make it up by waking up at 10pm!

Both of our clans are American Based, and most of our members are americans, Let us have fun!

Do you guys have any Euros in your clan?

My clan is Controlled worldwide!

I have Myself for Asian and Australian, iSpecYou for European, Nukeproof for American / Candanian

My clan's anniversary is on....... why this date... lol...... September 11, 2013 :P

FusSioN is Happy for .rGN. and |-210|

I wonder if you guys had this experience before, because I'm so happy that my clan's former members are still helping me with my DP2 career!

I am also happy for |-210| for helping my clan to revive again!
I guess training is still needed, for some members though.

I am so lucky with |-210| =) Thanks guys.

I still wonder if jitspoe is giving me mod position... http://www.dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=26803.0

In other news, jitspoe changed my clan name and tag to Real Gaming Network to .rGN.! So happy!

I guess |-210| needs a motto.

That's for my today's news.... And some of you might wanna join www.realegn.webs.com and like my page on facebook =) (part of rgn, though) www.facebook.com/realgamingnetwoek


I made a motto of my clan! =D


Pure, Proud, Painless, Pro, Real. Real Gamers, Pro Gamers, Painless Gamers, Proud Gamers, Pure Gamers. Real Gaming. Real Gaming Network.

Partnered match with rGN

So, I mentioned a few days ago that I'd really like to try and keep -210 active, despite the game becoming more inactive with the conclusion of the Winter break.

The clan is a little down on active playing members right now, so I suggested that we capitalise on the opportunity offered by rGN and partner up with their members for matches. 

I hope that this is the first of many matches in a strong alliance between -210 and rGN.

On a side note - I recruited a new member for the clan, although I then realised that the number of members is getting pretty large. I kicked the new player out for this reason. If we want to recruit any additional members, we should remove some of the inactive ones first.

Legend Slayer

I eliminated Myerz and Jitspoe this morning. 

That is all :P

(p.s. I know this was pubbing in a totally-not-at-all-serious game and that they would both destroy me under any other circumstances!)







New Page [Clan Profile] Has Been Created!

So I got bored today and decided to create ourselves a clan profile page, right on this website. Check it out by pressing the "Clan Profile" Tab on this website. Enjoy! Feedback is always helpful!

-eGn- was revived!

Hello, my friends! I made this post to inform |-210| that -eGn- was revived!

I got myself some good members, including Paint3r, Lukek9, Nukeproof and some active members!
But, we are not -eGn- anymore. We are REAL. We are PURE. We are the Real Gaming Network .rGN.!
I did 5 tryouts in 1 month! If I could keep that record in 5 months, I can have 25 members! Thank you |-210|! We will always be at your back ;)

Check out our new website: www.realegn.webs.com

Any member of |-210| still using the IRC channel #liquid_nitrogen?
Ima shut it down if nobody uses it =)

We Should Make / Enter A Tournament Sometime!

The winter break is dying, and we are leaving the holiday season, and going back to school. But who says we'll be inactive during that period? Who knows, we could run another tournament again! Or, if we don't have the time (I certainly don't for the next three weeks), just participate in one. I hear #sPec#'s organizing another tournament the following weekend! We can match more too!
Post here any ideas about what we can do to help this clan stay active - and even help this game stay active!

Quick update

Things are going pretty steady with the clan right now. I've been saying this for a while, but I'll say it again - I'm still looking to expand our US player base. If you see anyone who you think would be a good recruit, ask them to post on here (Lazers, also feel free to bring in anyone you deem suitable).

The first leg of our tournament ran recently, to a fairly reasonable turnout. Lazers did an excellent job of putting it all together and I'm very grateful for his efforts and involvement. Here is a screenshot from the final match.



Matching is pretty consistent of late, though most games tend to end in additional players joining the server and turning clan matches into pugs.

We didn't do so well here, but note that Riven is clipz! I don't know who the other players are. 


Typical insta trash talk going on here haha


Once upon a time I could beat jigs. Not anymore!



Well, when it's our map and it ultimately becomes 2v1, things change a little :P


I just took this one because I liked seeing the Australian component (- insta) of -210 all in one place.

Hope everyone had an awesome Christmas and new year!
