[[Image:callofduty.jpg|frame|Call of Duty 2]]

==The Basics==

'''Call of Duty''' (or CoD as we prefer) is traditionally played on a Tuesday evening and comes in three flavours:

Call of Duty,
Call of Duty: United Offensive (basically an expansion to the original CoD), and
Call of Duty 2 (the sequel)

Of the three CoD: UO is by far the most popular. Not because it has the best graphics, the best gameplay or an amazing physics engine (in fact, physics generally doesn't exist in CoD and if you read carefully you will find this noted in Einstein's Theory of General Relativity), but just because it is enormous fun to run around shooting people whilst talking complete and utter gibberish over [[TeamSpeak]].

'''Call of Duty 2''' is the newer shinier version of CoD, it features an excellent single player campaign and a multiplayer game very similar to the original Call of Duty. The differences between Call of Duty 2 and United Offensive are the reasons why it is not as popular. In Call of Duty 2 you cannot run, in Call of Duty 2 you cannot [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooking_off#Grenades cook grenades] (Cooking grenades is pulling the pin before throwing in order to shorten the time before detonation enabling you to time the throw so that your target has no time to escape), in Call of Duty 2 you do not gain ranks (In United Offensive the ranking system gives more grenades, the addition of satchel charges and artillery strikes based upon your score), in Call of Duty 2 you cannot drive vehicles (Popular in United Offensive but not often played at 5punk due to the large numbers of players required to make vehicle maps effective, although nothing beats hurtling around in a jeep like a madman beeping your horn!). That is not to say that Call of Duty 2 is not an enjoyable game, it has some excellent new maps and the addition of the popular Shotgun or Trenchgun as it is called in game. We have tried out several game Mods with our Call of Duty 2 server to add the facility to run and cook grenades (and have gay pink smoke) but it hasn't quite managed to replace the glorious United Offensive in the hearts of 5punkers, even the addition of flying bath and piano artillary as Team Kill punishments hasn't managed to overthrow UO!!.

==The Juicy Bits==

CoD probably epitomizes the 5punk ethos more than any other game - it's not about how many points you get, it's about having fun. In fact you will notice that no description has been given of the game itself so far - that's because in all honesty, it doesn't matter.

Although games such as [[Counterstrike|CS:S]] and [[Battlefield 2|BEEF]] are more popular, the TeamSpeak conversations during CoD have probably given rise to more hilarity, 5punk in-jokes and general surrealism than any other games put together. It is of course impossible to recreate the atmosphere of a CoD night TeamSpeak session, but below are a few of the things you might want to listen out for if you decide to join in.

[[Image:callofduty3.gif|frame|Teabagging.]]

==CoD Lingo==
===AIDS Cannon===
You won't have to listen too hard for this one. The AIDS Cannon features on the custom map 'Quarantine' and is effectively a mounted anti-tank gun that kills without making a sound! The animation whilst firing also looks amusingly like the player is having a wank. Although the gun itself is silent, it's presence is generally greeted with the singing of either (or sometimes at the same time) of the two songs below...

''AIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDSAIDS'' etc

''AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDS CANNON!''

===Baths===
These are sources of great power in CoD, and must be protected at all costs. The bigger the bath, the better. Regardless of scores on a map, whoever is deemed to have held on to a bath for the longest amount of time is the winner.

===Teabagging===
The art of placing one's testicles upon the cold, dead eyes of a recently defeated foe. If there is no foe readily available, certain other objects will suffice - a radio, a dead cow, a piano...

===Treebagging===
The art of placings one's testicles in a tree. This is best performed as a group activity.

===Death 'Nade===
The art of releasing a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooking_off#Grenades cooked] grenade just as you are killed. Anyone teabagging your corpse at that moment will find their testicles rapidly detached and hurled through the air (into a tree if they are really lucky).

===Ninja roof climbing===
Climbing on roofs! Like a ninja!

===Railings===
Found on a map that begins with 'M'. Whoever thought that iron railings could offer invulnerability?

===That map with the railings that begins with 'M'===

Battlefield 2

[[Image:bf2-20060814-200428.jpg|thumb|right|160px|[[user:Gunslinger|Gunslinger]] landing a jet inside a carrier in Battlefield 2]]

==The Basics==
Battlefield 2 (BEEF) got a warm but not stunning reception at 5punk to begin with, however over the last year or so, we've been getting more and more players playing regularly and have actually managed somehow to get pretty good at the game, even showing some signs of organization and skill, both of which are usually unheard of on 5punk.

This popularity made it possible for us to split the cost of a [http://www.game-monitor.com/GameServer/81.19.208.85:16567/5punk.co.uk_-_Get_some_on_you.html Ranked Server] for 5punk so we could have a server run to the usual 5punk standards.

BF2 is basically a First Person Shooter (FPS) game. It can be played in single-player mode with computer controlled enemies (or bots) providing the enemy force, however, this is only really useful as an off-line training mode. The real action in BF2 is in LAN or Internet based play.

Firstly, new players will be required to create a user account. This will serve as a login for the game (EA have also announced this same login can be transferred to the upcoming Battlefield 2142, the next title in the series), a login for EA Downloader and as a login for [http://www.fileplanet.com/ FilePlanet].

This account will maintain a record of all your stats, weapon unlocks and ranking data and provides stat geeks with something to read when not playing Beef. Players can retrieve their stats through a number of third-party websites, the most popular being [http://bf2s.com/ BF2S.com] as well the BFHQ section within Beef itself.

Servers are provided by Electronic Arts (the games' publisher), however, the vast majority of game servers will be funded privately by clans or benevolent gaming gods (like 5punk). These servers can be further be subdivided into 'ranked' and 'non-ranked'. Ranked and non-ranked servers are identical game-play wise but only ranked servers will record your scores and stats allowing you to raise your BF2 rank and give access to weapon unlocks as you progress.

The premise of the game is simple; two opposing forces compete in limited-time games in an attempt to reduce the opposing team to 0 tickets (tickets are 'points' which allow a team member to re-spawn after death) by moving through the map capturing enemy controlled bases (or flags). The games take place on a variety of [http://www.totalbf2.com/page.php?s=3274858c4daad40a1d3f9196eacffaae&do=bfmaps maps] which may vary in the maximum number of players permitted, dependent upon the server settings.

==The Juicy Bits==
BEEF is in many ways the polar opposite of [[Call of Duty]] as Beef is a game that requires communication, tactics and teamwork, all of which usually go against the 5punk way of doing things.

Many 5punkers have come to love the game, not least in part due to the teamwork and attitude of 5punkers.

==The Crusty Bits==
The Beef 1.3 server is prone to crashing, often making people lose over 100 points.

Beef also has an unrivaled ability to really, really piss people off which we call [[Beef Rage]] it is thought Beef Rage comes from a chemical reaction caused when two spawn-raping fuckmonkeys meet one [[rocket whoring]] [[Faggot]]

Counterstrike

2007-04-05T11:08:00Z

62.31.191.18: /* Players with this game */

[[Category:Games]]
[[Image:counterstrike.jpg|frame|Counterstrike: Source]]
==The Basics ==

Best of all the animals. Well, FPS games. '''Counterstrike''' is a very popular online first-person-shooter, back in the days of the original Half-Life it was pretty much the biggest online game ever. Now, the new version that was released with [[Half-Life 2]] is called Counterstrike: Source, or CSS or CS:S for short.

Source, or 'Sauce' is 5punk's wednesday game. It has pretty much outright replaced the older version, Counterstrike 1.6 which ran on the original [[Half-Life]] engine.

It has good graphics, and reasonably fast paced, round-based gameplay. It's realistic for an online game, compared to [[Quake]] or [[Unreal Tournament]] for example.
It's is really quite good. If you haven't got it, it's well worth getting along with Half-Life 2. It uses the Valve Steam distribution system, which when working, makes updates etc. very easy. However it also means that playing the game offline is tricky, and playing an unlicensed copy of it online is nigh impossible.

A mod featured of late is the Zombie Mod where players avoid an enemy zombie under the threat of being made part of their undead army. When enough players are turned into zombies, and there are some hold-outs in very hard to reach places, zombies will stack and create [[Zombie Tower]]s to reach the enenmy. Good, frantic fun.

===What is 5punk?===

5punk is a friendly community of gamers based on the ethic of playing for fun hence the title

"5punk - the gaming equivalent of a kickaround in the park"

'''Woo Elephant yeah, the site owner'''

"Well one day I decided it would be a good idea to get like minded 'b3tans' ([http://b3ta.com b3ta]) to all play online games together. Since then there's been no looking back, and 5punk has now turned into an active online gaming community for all ages and types of people.
You do not have to be a member of b3ta to join 5punk, as it's an open gaming community, it's just that b3ta is historically a root for people to come here."

Basically we play for fun, get on well with like minded gamers and have good laugh in the process.

We also run our own [[Bukkake|gameserver]], as this allows us to switch games we host easily depending on what's popular.

====Why 5punk?====

This is at least partly related to the being an offspring of b3ta.com

The use of a number in the place of a letter started with b3ta, but was taken up by 4rthur, 5punk, just as a nod to our roots.

[http://www.b3ta.com/talk/64446 Thread where the name was decided.]

====How do you pronounce 5punk?====

Spunk - a slang term for male ejaculate.
Not five-punk

===Games we often play===

*[[Battlefield 2]]
*[[Counterstrike|Counter Strike: Source]]
*[[Call of Duty| Call of Duty: United Offensive]]
*[[EVE]]
*[[Other Games| List of other games]] - These are less popular games, but still have a following in 5punk

The games we play change reasonably often, and we always try new games but tend to get bored of them pretty quickly if it's nothing special.

However [[Battlefield 2|BF2]], [[Counterstrike| CS:S]], [[Call of Duty|CoD:UO]] and [[EVE]] are our staple games with a strong, and in the case of Eve, militant following (No, really. Those EVE players are nuts).

==== When does 5punk play? ====

We play games most evenings, generally using a set schedule of games during the week and random games as and when they happen using Xfire.

*'''Monday:''' Nothing set
*'''Tuesday:''' [[Call of Duty]]
*'''Wednesday:''' [[Counterstrike| Counter Strike: Source]]
*'''Thursday:''' [[Battlefield 2]]
*'''Friday:''' Co-op Games night
*'''Saturday:''' Nothing set
*'''Sunday:''' Nothing set

====More info about the games we play====

===== [[Battlefield 2]] =====

Our BF2 addiction has been gaining power since release, often getting 8+ players for our scheduled games on thursdays.

We pooled our funds and rented our own ranked BF2 server, which can be found [http://www.game-monitor.com/GameServer/81.19.208.85:16567/5punk.co.uk_-_Get_some_on_you.html Here]

===== [[Call of Duty|Call of Duty: United Offensive]] =====

AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS CANNON
(And you can shoot stuff.)

We use a lot of custom maps which can be downloaded [http://files.hairy-arse.com/CallofDuty/Maps.rar Here]

===== [[CoH/CoV| City of Heores / City of Villains]] =====

A nonspecific Superhero comic based MMO that is slowly gaining popularity on 5punk. Not particularly deep, but combined with Teamspeak is often highly amusing.

CoH and CoV are two seperate games with a slight overlap - bought seperately but one subscription fee for both, playing as either a hero or a villain. The two overlap in certain PvP areas, and owning both offers certain advantages for players on either side.

===== [[Counterstrike| Counter Strike: Source]] =====

omg! hax

===== [[EVE]] =====

One of the most absorbing and involved MMOs around, EVE differs greatly from others in that grind does not increase your skillpoints as training is based purely on time. Grind will earn you isk (in-game currency) and allow you to buy new skills to fly new ships, fit new LASERS!

In-depth details on the game can be found here in [http://www.5punk.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2305 Wiggy's EVE review]

The 5punk community in EVE is based around the fantastic 5punkorp (think Guild), based on the ideals of bumming, more bumming, freedom and the spirit of fun! (But mostly bumming. - Wig)

===== [[OFP| Operation Flashpoint]] =====

An older but still one of the best modern era FPS's out there. OPF focuses more on low level tactics than MMO's like BEEF and requires thought, teamwork and combined arms cooperation to achieve mission success. It is set apart from the competition by a large and active community who continue to produce new vehicles, weapons, maps and mods 5 years after it was first released.

===== [[SWAT 4| SWAT 4 - The Stetchkov Syndicate]] =====

Oldish Tactical first person shooter, slow paced, challenging to play well, but still fun.

===== [http://www.urbandead.com UrbanDead] =====

Inconspicuous browser based MMORPG set in the zombie apocalypse, easily played at lunch time at work. 5punkers tend to gravitate towards pubs, occasionally organising excursions such as the Malton Pub Crawl in order to bring sunshine to the lives (or undeaths, as the case may be) of human and zombie alike.

===== [http://www.shartak.com Shartak] =====

A Browser based MMPORG set on a desert island, Featuring Outsiders, Pirates and natives.

Quite similar to Urban dead, likely because the maker was inspired by urbandead.

===== [http://www.atorian.com Atorian] =====

Another inconspicuous browser based game. Set at some point in the future 5punkers in this game are purely self-defensive, but since there's always someone trying to take our planets we never stop fighting.

=== Stuff we run ===

This list is likely to change often, so just check [http://www.game-monitor.com/search.php?search=5punk&type=server Here] for our current servers

=== Apps we use and how to use them. ===

==== Xfire ====
Xfire is an app that acts as an instant messenger with in game support and allows us to easily join other 5punkers in game.

With the 22/9/06 Xfire update, they introduced a [http://www.xfire.com/clans Clan] function, this allows users to add everyone to their contact list easily by joining the 5punk clan [http://www.xfire.com/clans/5punk here], you'll usually be accepted within 24hours.

We also have a list of our xfire usernames and a small app to automatically add everyone, though it isn't always reliable and isn't updated often.

[http://www.5punk.co.uk/phpbb/xfired.php Xfire List]

[http://www.5punk.co.uk/XfireAdd2.exe Auto-Adder]

When signing up at the forum, make sure you add your Xfire username to your forum profile, as this is the core of 5punk, and without Xfire, we wouldn't even be here.

==== Teamspeak ====

Teamspeak is our voice comms medium of choice - given the ease of use, and reasonable licensing terms.

*Server Address: 217.112.95.67:8767
*Server Password: cranberry

==== Hamachi ====

Used to allow us to play older games over the Internet, also allows us to test experimental servers safely and securely.

[http://www.angelfire.com/games5/darkcry/hamachi_eng.htm Basic guide] (placeholder until a 5punk-specific one is made)

If Hamachi is needed for a game, the network to join and password for the network will be posted in the scheduler.

==== Last.fm ====

We have a last.fm group, last.fm is an plug-in for your media player which keeps track of what music you have been playing.

[http://www.last.fm/group/5punk.co.uk]

Sign up and someone will approve you.

==== Nintendo Wii Address Book ====

To allow the sharing of "Miis" and to send messages back and forth with Nintendo's console, you have to exchange Wii system addresses. More info here:
[[Wii Addresses]]

===Site Admins===

'''Woo Elephant Yeah''' - Site Owner/Creator

Often referred to as Wey, or Woo (which can be confusing)
5punk is Wey's Baby, as, oddly enough, is Wey's baby.
He is still amazed at how a simple idea has evolved into this rather active gaming community.

'''Stoat''' - Site Admin

Mustela erminea
Our very own php jedi, Coded the Scheduler and the Discussion board.
Stoat has been there since the birth of 5punk, and without him, we wouldn't have any of the things we have.

'''Dog Pants''' - Site Moderator

After watching his posts for some time, WEY decided to ask Dog Pants to join the 5punk admin team.
Dog Pants has done a wonderful job moderating 5punk's forum, and has helped influence a lot of the recent decisions/suggestions for 5punk.
He can usually be found stumbling around groaning in Urban Dead, or watching Zombie flicks at home.

'''Dr. Kitteny Berk''' - Game Server ([[Bukkake]]) Owner

Quote from WEY:
Abrupt, Rude and quite possibly Obnoxious, Berk speaks his mind and what you see is what you get.
You know where you stand with Berk, and he's the first to admit that. However, without him, 5punk would never have lifted off the ground in the way that it has, and his continuous work, help, time & money has got Bukkake up and running, along with the Shoutcast radio shows as well.
He's the unsung hero, but more a hero without the shiny long blonde hair and chiseled jaw, more of a dark shadowy figure lurking in the corner fixing servers and swearing repeatedly at things whilst snarling.
So to sum up *thinks about words carefully again*, even though Berk can be a bit of a sarcastic foul mouthed bastard, we love him in our very own special way.

==== Others ====

===== [[Team RO-BO]] =====

[[user:Roman Totale|Roman Totale]] and [[user:mrbobbins|MrBobbins]]' team from a CS:S Tournament we held.

Probably won, but as survivors are yet to be found we cannot be sure of this.

Widely believed to be the founding partners of the following website: http://www.deagostini.co.uk/ilovehorses/

'''Gunslinger'''

[[user:Gunslinger|Gunslinger]] was Created by RO-BO using old toaster parts, flips out if he sees a bagel.

So horribly, horribly good at all games.

0.001% of his neural processing runs all NASA orbital navigation and communication systems and he is a technical consultant on [http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/R/richardandjudy/ Richard and Judy]

'''Hehulk'''

Massive [http://www.eve-online.com/ EVE] addict. Claims that [[Main Page#xfire|xfire]] is inaccurate and that this means he has has missed three hundred hours of actual play time due to router issues with ports. Was promoted to moderator on the eve forum just because of the sheer number of hours he plays it.

Also plays BEEF and CSS. Tends to cry hax a lot when losing

'''Pnut'''

5punk's personal Battlefield 2 point resource. An avid fan of Battlefield 2 even though he isnt very good, can often be heard on teamspeak threatening to beat M4niachicken to death with his Keyboard/Mouse/Chair and many other assorted inanimate objects, normally after being sniped for the 9th time.

However [[Battlefield 2|BF2]], [[Counterstrike| CS:S]], [[Call of Duty|CoD:UO]] and [[EVE]] are our staple games with a strong, and in the case of Eve, militant following (No, really. Those EVE players are nuts).

==== When does 5punk play? ====

We play games most evenings, generally using a set schedule of games during the week and random games as and when they happen using Xfire.

*'''Monday:''' Nothing set
*'''Tuesday:''' [[Call of Duty]]
*'''Wednesday:''' [[Counterstrike| Counter Strike: Source]]
*'''Thursday:''' [[Battlefield 2]]
*'''Friday:''' Co-op Games night
*'''Saturday:''' Nothing set
*'''Sunday:''' Nothing set

====More info about the games we play====

===== [[Battlefield 2]] =====

Our BF2 addiction has been gaining power since release, often getting 8+ players for our scheduled games on thursdays.

We pooled our funds and rented our own ranked BF2 server, which can be found [http://www.game-monitor.com/GameServer/81.19.208.85:16567/5punk.co.uk_-_Get_some_on_you.html Here]

===== [[Call of Duty|Call of Duty: United Offensive]] =====

AAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS CANNON
And you can shoot stuff.

We use a lot of custom maps which can be downloaded [http://files.hairy-arse.com/CallofDuty/Maps.rar Here]

===== [[CoH/CoV| City of Heores / City of Villains]] =====

A nonspecific Superhero comic based MMO that is slowly gaining popularity on 5punk. Not particularly deep, but combined with Teamspeak is often highly amusing.

CoH and CoV are two seperate games with a slight overlap - bought seperately but one subscription fee for both, playing as either a hero or a villain. The two overlap in certain PvP areas, and owning both offers certain advantages for players on either side.

===== [[Counterstrike| Counter Strike: Source]] =====

omg! hax

===== [[EVE]] =====

One of the most absorbing and involved MMOs around, EVE differs greatly from others in that grind does not increase your skillpoints as training is based purely on time. Grind will earn you isk (in-game currency) and allow you to buy new skills to fly new ships, fit new LASERS!

In-depth details on the game can be found here in [http://www.5punk.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2305 Wiggy's EVE review]

The 5punk community in EVE is based around the fantastic 5punkorp (think Guild), based on the ideals of bumming, more bumming, freedom and the spirit of fun! (But mostly bumming. - Wig)

===== [[OFP| Operation Flashpoint]] =====

An older but still one of the best modern era FPS's out there. OPF focuses more on low level tactics than MMO's like BEEF and requires thought, teamwork and combined arms cooperation to achieve mission success. It is set apart from the competition by a large and active community who continue to produce new vehicles, weapons, maps and mods 5 years after it was first released.

===== [[SWAT 4| SWAT 4 - The Stetchkov Syndicate]] =====

Oldish Tactical first person shooter, slow paced, challenging to play well, but still fun.

===== [http://www.urbandead.com UrbanDead] =====

Inconspicuous browser based MMORPG set in the zombie apocalypse, easily played at lunch time at work. 5punkers tend to gravitate towards pubs, occasionally organising excursions such as the Malton Pub Crawl in order to bring sunshine to the lives (or undeaths, as the case may be) of human and zombie alike.

===== [http://www.shartak.com Shartak] =====

A Browser based MMPORG set on a desert island, Featuring Outsiders, Pirates and natives.

Quite similar to Urban dead, likely because the maker was inspired by urbandead.

===== [http://www.atorian.com Atorian] =====

Another inconspicuous browser based game. Set at some point in the future 5punkers in this game are purely self-defensive, but since there's always someone trying to take our planets we never stop fighting.

=== Apps we use and how to use them. ===

==== Xfire ====
Xfire is an app that acts as an instant messenger with in game support and allows us to easily join other 5punkers in game.

With the 22/9/06 Xfire update, they introduced a [http://www.xfire.com/clans Clan] function, this allows users to add everyone to their contact list easily by joining the 5punk clan [http://www.xfire.com/clans/5punk here], you'll usually be accepted within 24hours.

We also have a list of our xfire usernames and a small app to automatically add everyone, though it isn't always reliable and isn't updated often.

[http://www.5punk.co.uk/phpbb/xfired.php Xfire List]

[http://www.5punk.co.uk/XfireAdd2.exe Auto-Adder]

When signing up at the forum, make sure you add your Xfire username to your forum profile, as this is the core of 5punk, and without Xfire, we wouldn't even be here.

==== Teamspeak ====

Teamspeak is our voice comms medium of choice - given the ease of use, and reasonable licensing terms.

*Server Address: 217.112.95.67:8767
*Server Password: cranberry

==== Hamachi ====

Used to allow us to play older games over the Internet, also allows us to test experimental servers safely and securely.

[http://www.angelfire.com/games5/darkcry/hamachi_eng.htm Basic guide] (placeholder until a 5punk-specific one is made)

If Hamachi is needed for a game, the network to join and password for the network will be posted in the scheduler.

==== Last.fm ====

We have a last.fm group, last.fm is an plug-in for your media player which keeps track of what music you have been playing.

[http://www.last.fm/group/5punk.co.uk]

Sign up and someone will approve you.

==== Nintendo Wii Address Book ====

To allow the sharing of "Miis" and to send messages back and forth with Nintendo's console, you have to exchange Wii system addresses. More info here:
[[Wii Addresses]]

===Site Admins===

'''Woo Elephant Yeah''' - Site Owner/Creator

Often referred to as Wey, or Woo (which can be confusing)
5punk is Wey's Baby, as, oddly enough, is Wey's baby.
He is still amazed at how a simple idea has evolved into this rather active gaming community.

'''Stoat''' - Site Admin

Mustela erminea
Our very own php jedi, Coded the Scheduler and the Discussion board.
Stoat has been there since the birth of 5punk, and without him, we wouldn't have any of the things we have.

'''Dog Pants''' - Site Moderator

After watching his posts for some time, WEY decided to ask Dog Pants to join the 5punk admin team.
Dog Pants has done a wonderful job moderating 5punk's forum, and has helped influence a lot of the recent decisions/suggestions for 5punk.
He can usually be found stumbling around groaning in Urban Dead, or watching Zombie flicks at home.

'''Dr. Kitteny Berk''' - Game Server ([[Bukkake]]) Owner

Quote from WEY:
Abrupt, Rude and quite possibly Obnoxious, Berk speaks his mind and what you see is what you get.
You know where you stand with Berk, and he's the first to admit that. However, without him, 5punk would never have lifted off the ground in the way that it has, and his continuous work, help, time & money has got Bukkake up and running, along with the Shoutcast radio shows as well.
He's the unsung hero, but more a hero without the shiny long blonde hair and chiseled jaw, more of a dark shadowy figure lurking in the corner fixing servers and swearing repeatedly at things whilst snarling.
So to sum up *thinks about words carefully again*, even though Berk can be a bit of a sarcastic foul mouthed bastard, we love him in our very own special way.

==== Others ====

===== [[Team RO-BO]] =====

[[user:Roman Totale|Roman Totale]] and [[user:mrbobbins|MrBobbins]]' team from a CS:S Tournament we held.

Probably won, but as survivors are yet to be found we cannot be sure of this.

Widely believed to be the founding partners of the following website: http://www.deagostini.co.uk/ilovehorses/

'''Gunslinger'''

[[user:Gunslinger|Gunslinger]] was Created by RO-BO using old toaster parts, flips out if he sees a bagel.

So horribly, horribly good at all games.

0.001% of his neural processing runs all NASA orbital navigation and communication systems and he is a technical consultant on [http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/R/richardandjudy/ Richard and Judy]

'''Hehulk'''

Massive [http://www.eve-online.com/ EVE] addict. Claims that [[Main Page#xfire|xfire]] is inaccurate and that this means he has has missed three hundred hours of actual play time due to router issues with ports. Was promoted to moderator on the eve forum just because of the sheer number of hours he plays it.

Also plays BEEF and CSS. Tends to cry hax a lot when losing

'''Pnut'''

5punk's personal Battlefield 2 point resource. An avid fan of Battlefield 2 even though he isnt very good, can often be heard on teamspeak threatening to beat M4niachicken to death with his Keyboard/Mouse/Chair and many other assorted inanimate objects, normally after being sniped for the 9th time.
