About Me


Welcome to my blog.

I'm a 26 year old gamer from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, who was brought up with PC games and Nintendo. My first gaming experiences where on the MSX and the C64 but the first game that I really remember playing was Prince of Persia on my 80286 PC.
After that I was hooked on games, especially the Lucas Arts and Sierra adventure games engaged me in a way I never thought possible before that. The day I saw a NES at a friends place with Super Mario Bros. on it I had to get one and after whining a lot my father finally got me one... Mario, Zelda, Metroid... they where all mine to play now and ate up so many hours of my childhood, I was a Nintendo kid and my love for Nintendo's games remain till this day.
I took a break from console gaming after the SNES era even though I stuck with PC games for the entire time. I had a gamecube which I didn't own many games for because I only bought it to play Metroid Prime. A few years back I bought a Nintendo DS on a whim. The DS rekindled my love for console gaming and got me to keep up with gaming news (here on Destructoid) and also got me to buy a Wii.

I also own a European TF2 server:

Euro FNF - TF2 - 08-08-2008 - Triple eight edition
insomnia | 8:24 AM on 08.08.2008 11 comments




Welcome to another edition of Euro FNF! Your host of this evening will be ainmosni!!! We have four fun looking maps on the schedule for tonight which we hope you'll enjoy.

The crit rocketing will continue until morale improves.
- The Management

cp_freight_b3 - A sideproject from the maker of cp_steel which gets a lot of good feedback and looks quite good, this one could be quite fun. (Yes this was on the menu a few weeks ago but we never got to it back then.)
tc_atlantic_b3 - ZOMG, another custom tc map and it looks gorgeous!
cp_boulder_v1 - cp_mof went final and we want to see that final product off course, it's a map in the trend of dustbowl so it'll probably be good.
cp_japan_v2 - To fit with cp_egypt last week, here is cp_japan... A very nice looking cp map.

The important information:

Map Pack - This has most of the customs on the server and the few that aren't on there will be downloaded automatically when and if they get played.

If you had a reserved slot on Caffeine's server, you will have it on this one as well, if you don't and want a reserved spot: mail me your Steam ID on FNF [at] ams-sec [dot] org

It's weird how all the map-makers suddenly figured out how to do territorial control.

Indeed it is, maybe they just took about the same time to make though.
