Because she was camped like a good soldier by our drop box in every round of CTF last night. Her little back to the wall holding her own. She capped me way too many times.
Good games last night, fellas, and of course you too Mrs. Frag. :D

I felt such a spaz. I was kinda nervous to play with everyone, but all you guys were SO great and didn't make me feel like an idiot! Well exept Frag but what else is new:).
I had SOOOOOOO MUCH FUN! Even though I sucked! I can't wait to play more! I am totally hooked, not just on the game but to all you guys too!!!
Thanks Working Moe, Dart and Nomad but putting up with me and my spazyness.

Got me a fair share of times too, and I heard the shouts of joy through Frag's mic every time too. ;)
Mike, I was getting Server Full last night also, so I just started a room and sent invites to everyone and their brother to let them know I wanted to play; usually a few people will split from the full room when you do that.

Fight!!! Fight!!!! I don't know about you guys, but I've got my money on Red. ;)
Although, I could have sworn that was you, Red, camped out underneath the stairs Friday night cappin' my ass everytime I re-spawned. Then again, I was drunk (realtor made me do it!) - so what do I know? :-D

Red doesn't camp.....anymore that was quite a few months ago when he was doing that, like when he was just starting R63.
Now if you hear a pin being pulled from a frag bets are he is REAL close :smile:

C'mon Red, really, you know I wasn't serious. You are clearly one of the best R63 players in our group. I am TOTALLY kidding when I say you camp. That being said, I had no idea it bothered you and rest assured I will not mention it again. My apologies.

Thanks. It only bothers me because if you (not specifically you) only realized how many times I have been right behind you and followed you around a map waiting to blow you up instead of easily shooting you....you'd realize how very little I stand still. I'm not saying that to brag either...I realize I get shot quite a bit. I'm saying it because I move around constantly.
Now, does that mean that if I see someone coming around a corner or through a window toward me I wont stop and get position on them? Obviously not, the point of the game is to eliminate your opponent. I've gotten good at seeing where a person is going and shooting (or blowing them up) when they get there.
Yeah, when I first started playing Rainbow I would camp because I didn't know the maps, how to switch weapons or even how to switch to my secondary weapon. Once some (non-LAG) kid took me aside and showed me how to play I put the fire out and took off.
I wouldn't be so offended if the notion of "camper" was assossiated with a compliment but it's looked at as being a dirty/cheap way of playing. I might not be so ticked if it weren't for two people saying it every time they mention my name in a post...but it happens regularly and although I've tried to be polite and ignore it or make a simple defense it keeps happening.
Dawn, the canister disappeared during a round. Our entire team stood outside your spawn and shot everyone for a few minutes. I reset the match shortly after that. I'm sorry for shooting you.

I think on some of the games you have to camp....I mean...you have to guard the satellites right? Its stupid not to....oh Ill just run around and let everyone take over my sattelites. The point is to try different approaches to break down their defenses and take it over right? (not that I ever do anything different..I just run into the room the same everytime with guns blazing into the floor.)
Now spawn camping dirty rotten and cheap and really messes the game up...thank god nobody in Lag does that;-).
Now in my case....camping is merely a survival function...which usually doesnt work anyway....Simplex has Cosmic seeking bullets.

This is not Quake or Unreal Tournament there will always be a certain amount of 'camping' in R6. It lends itself to it, I mean it's not like you can go get health. If you run around like you are playing a typical FPS you might get one or two guys but you will take hits and more often then not be taken out by the next opponent.
...no bunny hopping in R6 either...which in my opinion is lower than camping
Nomad Dawg

I agree with Cosmic (oh my, I better up my dosage) some of the game modes almost require camping. It only makes sense to try to protect your satellites.
I like to camp in dark corners where no one can see me. I don't try to shoot them though, because I will only miss and piss them off. Then they will kill me. :-(

And that is why Unreal Tournament is the one of the greatest FSP franchises IMO! 8-)

I'm guessing that this whole "camping" thing is just some good ol fun poking. Like the "Cheater" in your title Red... or calling each other Supa Elite... I don't think anyone in LAG takes this kind of stuff seriously... or at least they shouldn't IMO.
Mrs Frag was camping on the retrieval mode... it's otherwise known as D-fence... which is just good strategy for these new game types. Have a couple people do D-fence (camp at depot) and have a couple people do offense.
My 2 cents...

If I called you a name you didn't appreciate (and have stated you don't appreciate) every time I mentioned your gamertag wouldn't you grow a little tired of it? Kidding or not?

I'll admit I'm not a big fan of the Spawn camping (that's cheap) but I totally see the need to play defense and protect the satellites on Conquest mod.
Now get out there, play fair and frag some a##.

Sure... I suppose it would...
You've just mentioned that you don't like it (not sure if you have before or not), and Reese has just said he won't do it again. Zero, paying attention? Ok then... case closed.
Enough seriousness now... lets just all have a big ol' group hug and move on. K?

No matter what you call it....Red is good at this game!!! There's no denying it. Blue and Kracker also are exceptional. I personally think that Red has become so good because he's able to log in many hours to practice (which I still don't know how you do it with three kids). But practice is what will allow anyone to excel at this game....just ask Terror..

I am sorry boyz, I didn't realize that camping out was bad.... I was a little intimidated by the whole thing, I would get lost and then I couldn't find anyone and then feel totally useless. I am still new at this team stuff, now I know. Sorry again!

I am still new at this team stuff, now I know. Sorry again!Given the situation, that was actually a very smart thing to do; heck, I was sitting in your base half the time last night, and with tear gas by the entrance to boot. There's nothing wrong with it at all, and you have no reason to apologize...

Are you serious here?...I made a post a while back saying that I was sick and tired hearing that red and krackerman cheat..that it was getting old, but it was not my place..I thought if it did not bother you , then don't make a bigger deal of it.....Can we add this to the atmosphere /unseen colum and get it banned?...ooooohhhhh I hope so.

We are talking about playing Rainbow Six, here - not patty-cake. ;-) What you said about the missing canister makes sense. Anyway, sorry if added any fuel to this fire. *smacks self on hand* I was just playing around, though! I hope to :guns3: you soon, and I won't be apologizing for it!!! :-)

I think we should ban the word "Tamale" that would be cool too....

I'm just hyper-sensitive to the word "****" I guess. I don't think it needs to be banned. :-#
I've said more than I wanted. I lost my cool and made a bigger deal out of nothing than needed to be. I apologize.

I don't think its bad.
Its called taking advantage of a tactical situation.
Ask some of the police laggers what happens if the bullets start flying,
do you start running around the building hoping to run into a perp? No you strategically place your men. Its just good strategy. In games that are more organized and the purpose is to win thats probably paramount. In our games, there are a lot of different ability levels...so you have to judge for yourself and ask,"how is my ****ing affecting the enjoyment overall game? If I'm ruining the fun for someone then I wont do it....but if by some twist of fate its just me and Red left (or anyone for that matter) then your damned right I'm ****ing" If there is someone that I am way better than, I might let them kill me or give them a good chase just to maximize the fun (that was hypothetical....if I ever find someone whos ass i can kick, I'll let you know;-)). Just remember why were here, thats my two cents.

I think that Tommy is just really good at the game. He has logged a lot of time playing it and has some really good strategies. As far as **** ing, he really doesnt do it. If you are on his team and you watch what he is doing , he is just plain sneaky. I know by watching him I have gotten better. I also know that he has followed me around for a long time in a game waiting for that perfect opportunity to pull that pin and blow my body across the map. Shake them haters off Red!:guns4: Sorry that if I hit this topic late, I actually have to work again.:'(

A few guys that I started playing with pre-LAG were hyper sensitive to anyone ****ing. If you sat for more than 3secs, they'd be bashing you... they wouldn't tolerate it. I thought it was foolish to be so against it. Now, if you are down to 1 person on each team, you'd better not be standing still... you should be trying to win, not tie. While I don't want to perpetuate this... I think it should be stated that ****ing is not bad. It's not. To sit in one spot for the whole game, hey... whatever floats your boat. LAG is not the place to be worrying about how one plays. When I play, I don't care if I die, but if I have my druthers, I'd like to be the capper, not the capped. If that means, holding tight and listening for someone coming, that's exactly what I'll do. If I wanna run around and be the aggressor, that's what I'll do... I won't of course cuz I'm too much of a chicken. LOL
Anyway, thanks Tommy for speaking up... now people know it bothered you. But, let's also realize that the ****ing strategy can be a very good one. Let's remember that we don't hassle each one around here for how they play. Well, except for Kracker on corners in PGR2... but he brings that on himself. ;-)
