Yes boys and girls, that is a 3d map of melee island from monkey island for half-life death match. And yes that is a character from monkey island in the center as a custom player model!
Anyways, I invite all of you to an old time tradition of what we call a Frag Fest, Which includes hours of exploding gibs, screaming and yelling, and beating the crap out of each other with melee weapons. Along with spraying the dead with your own little spray to claim your kill at the end of which you become a screaming nancy running away from the little friends we call snarks :D.
Sunday Night will be a night for nostalgia, since all the other damn nights are taken up. This weekend if time permits, we will be exploring the world of HLDM, and in future weeks we may jump to quake I, DOOM II online, Tribes, what have you, whichever is available for all. The night will consist of 2 hours of fun time where we beat each other with crowbars, and slaughter each other in unique and entertaining ways.. the Final hour after the 2hr fun time will consist of Team Deathmatch where we take these shenanigans and battle each other for the highest amount of kills! And where will this battle take place? On the good ol classic I'm sure all you hl players remember... crossfire.
If you want to enjoy the nostalgia frag fest then you must take part in another old time tradition of downloading mountains of custom player models & maps. But I will save you the adventure of looking for the damn things. I put together a pack of some good HLDM maps, and some high end HLDM player models for all of us to enjoy. It ranges from HD versions of the old HLDM models to Tubes of Aquafresh with arms (as seen in banner)..they even have ky bottles, to sooth the ass from all the ravaging it will encounter over the night. We got powerpuff player models, and simpson player models.. like I said its quite a collection, somewhere around 50+ models.
