Where Are All The Clans?

<div class="IPBDescription">Getting connected...</div> I've seen so many clans for NS just like any other game but have not seen them compete in any leagues (that i know of) or seen them in IRC. I'm just curious on what type of clans I am seeing out there, wearing a tag from another game into NS? Are you competitive? Are you using ICQ or AIM to get connected?
If you are one of those "clueless" clans that want to become a part of the "competitive/NS community" while it is still young I recommend you get plugged into it via IRC. The advantages of IRC are enormous, you can have your own clan channel for other pubber's or other clannies to chill with you in, your own priv chan, there is a #findnsscrim channel there that you can join to find a scrim almost anytime of the day. Anyways maybe not all clans are looking to get connected some are just there to pub and have some fun every now and then, which is cool.
For those of you interested in mIRC go to www.mirc.com download it, and connected to irc.gamesnet.net. Then go to #support and get your own clan channel registered. A few channels to check out are #findnsscrim, #archives, and ofcourse #pandas (cause everyone loves those furry guys).

WOW, come by and play with some real good NS players. We have some of the best.
And your probally right. Look at those who play on our servers. They think that our modz kick arse.

Good question. Now you have been notified. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Good observation, because you are correct. Almost all of the NS community does play on our servers. Maybe that's why all the others are empty. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

There will be far more changes in the upcoming 1.1 client update that many people will eventually say "ruins" the original game. Flayra and Voogru, although different efforts, are both working hard to improve NS. We should all be grateful for their efforts.
If anyone wants to challenge us (we're mostly a "fun" clan - so no challenges from "leet" clans please) feel free to pop into our channel on qnet and chat with Bugstomper, Petru, or Yoshimo. In fact please, I'm begging you, challenge us ... we don't get enough NS games at the moment for some reason. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
We currently have 40 people so far from all over the world. Yea our site isnt the best but our forums are up now and will soon be getting a new look.

Our tag goes at the end of our name so dont get us confused with the other TSA clans. -TSA[x] x is a letter that tells the commander and team what that player does best at.
e= engineer
a= assault
c= commander
r= recon
So if anyone sees us say hi. We try to split up when we play in public servers, team staking isnt fun.
And we dont blame the comms for everything either. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

<b>I have nothing useful to add in regard to the above post. Instead, I'm going to turn around in circles until I get dizzy and boot all over MonsE.</b>
tbZ started as a CS clan but to our delight we have discovered that we are too lazy to do ANYTHING. Its more like a social club now. I'm the only member that actively plays NS. There's no point coming to quakenet #tbz and challenging us, we're all old and have children. Or there'll be something good on telly.
Try #findscrim theres probably representitives from 100 different clans there right now. . .

That was an arrogant comment if I ever heard one. Now you're the one crossing the line.
Problem with CAL, is to many teams win by forfeit.
CAL has a great idea, no way to implement an effective LADDER game. And that can also be said for the other 2.

w00t! First moderated post!
To be fair QRGR qn tbZ have a fairly long and friendly history. I think it was they that introduced us to NS. It was gentle leg pulling, and "in" jokes I'm afraid.
/me begins slowly revolving......
/me turns green

There really is not as much foreiting in CAL as you think. We've yet to win by that manner.
Is starting up withing a month or so , great guys and looking to be a great league, there is already a servers up and a bookable server will be avail for clan matchs during the league.
or #uknsl on irc.quakenet.org
Xeno^, (Somehow I ended up the clan leader after some major problems.) is more focused on the fun side more than the competitive side of NS.
We decided this after we realised that if you play competively NS isn't fun anymore. So we decided to do the scrim thing. So I think I may have to arrange a match with QRGR at some point! They seem to have the same idea as we do!
The only problem, we need more members...
And please lets stop this thread from becoming a "I h4t3 v00gru!" thread.
