Rigs And Rock Leave Nocturne

Posted by Myers at 15:21 6/6/2002.

No sooner had the ripples of KhAoS being removed from Nocturne spread than news comes that two more players from noc have left. Not quite sure how active they have been recently. So taken straight from their official announcement on Geekboys.
Sadly, Rock and Rigs have decided to leave Nocturne. They have been in the team since they started almost a year ago, and have taken noc to korea in the world cyber games, and played in last years CPL qualifiers, in which they reached the finals.

Thanks to both for everything they have done for Nocturne, and we hope they will continue to come online every now and then to have a chat with everyone who knows them.

I wish them both good luck in the future and perhaps they'll be back amongst the UK elite sooner than we think.

You mean the founders/CL's/tacticians. More than just players Myers, being a player is the easy part. Building a successful clan (in any respect) is a tiring responsibilty. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

While its a bad thing for the scene, I think it will be a good thing for them. Im sure they can find more happiness outside CS.

no-one's really that bothered if they're the founders, cl's tacticians etc...most people refer to those as players. Keep things very simple for the public.
They did play for Noc and as such they can be classed as players. It sounds better too :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

It seems that after 3 years as clan leader of the top UK CS clan has taken it's toll on Jonny 'TheGenius' Neffgen who has exclusively revealed to UKTerrorist that he's to retire from Infinity-esports. Mr. Neffgen had this to say about his retirement:

Thats from your thread about The Genius leaving. So the 'Founders' of noc leaving is more appropriate. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Myers I don't point out every mistake you make. I do however notice your complete bias toward certain clans if you think it will get you something, anything, that might raise your reputation in UK CS scene.

Maybe try playing the game, 'cos some of the s*** you write amuses me. Your like an art critic whos only ever f***ing doodled on a scrap piece of paper.

As a writer for the main UK CS site, your supposed to be neutral :) Or atleast try to make it look that way. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Typical cycle of cs players. Start playing cs, find its fun, play it a bit more than they should, get relativly good, join a good clan and do well. A few months to a year later they realise how s***e online gaming and cs is and realise how much time they've wasted playing it and want to start doing other things in "real life" instead. Quit cs and spend more time doing the things in life which matter, which sadly isnt sitting playing a game every free hour they have.

Anyone can be good at good at cs sadly its just the more socially inept people that can prolong being good at it.

Greg,

Both I-es and Noc, you suggest above, view achievement solely in terms of cash in the bank. If I-es have aimed to take it seriously and aim to earn a little money on the side, then cs-b and ukla have set out to enjoy cs on a more relaxed note, and have also succeeded, in a _different_ way.

You appear to define achievement in terms of money won, and that, in my opinion, is most unfortunate (especially since the amounts involved are relatively small). I hope for your sake that you were just mock jibing, because theres more to life.

Don't get me wrong, Id sure have liked to have won a bit of money, but not to the detriment of the other things outside cs. So please don't go saying other clans are "un-successful" judged from such a narrow definition of achievement.

I'll expect a face saving response.

I think that is what he meant by achieving; 'being good' or 'making money' etc.
True, clans who play for fun also achieve things, but you cant expect news to be posted about them, because there are simply far too many clans who 'play for fun'. Thats why these clans are meantioned, because as well as playing for fun, they are better than the rest. If there was news about every clan when they loose a member, all newssites would have to have an 90000GB Ubertrox blackhole powered quadrouple skuzzy 4million RPM power discharge harddrives to be able to store all the news.

I wouldnt define success as money. Cause there is far too little to be won playing CS. I'd define success as winning free trips to Dallas, or free trips to Korea, and becomming recognised on the European scene.

With the amount of time that is spent on CS by a lot of players and teams, you might as well try and get something out of it :P [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

I dont think they were at TPF for Dallas quals, maybe you mean CPL London quals, i dont know.

Succes is not defined in money, its is defined in having a good reputation, people appreciating you and winning important matches. ie. Eurocup.

I agree with Alvin, aslong as you spent alot of time on a computer game and have a reasonable amount of brains there is a fair chance you can do really well. Hard part is to play well even when you are not a bum sitting at home 24/7.
