Hi guys , my name is Michael , I am from Austria and I wanna play with you :D

id like to join plz, 3k hours but my play style is "freeweekend" run on the ground in a straight line. im a light load so im not that much of a pain to carry.

Hello!
I've played pub forever but never really got into the competitive mindset. I'm almost at 3k hours and will be trying to join some gathers in the near future if I see anyone I know! I usually play fade but not sure if that will transfer well to 6v6 very well so if all else fails, I bite the res :D

Hey suckers,

Roland here, UK, ~1000 hrs (more like 600 from info on here apparently...), pronos and expert res biter.

Not the best but I will do my best!

hi,
my name is nils, age 31 from germany. i got around 650 hours of playing ns2, at least the same for ns1.
i tried to play competitive once like four years ago, but i lacked the time aswell as the passion at that point.
i just reentered playing ns2 a few weeks ago and i hope to find some mates here who are willing to carry my ass :x
ns2 friendslist is dead for the most part so i heavily rely on some kind strangers here.

my skill is decent for pubs, dont have experience in pcw but i think i will get stomped hard there.

Hi guys , my name is Yuriy , I am from RF (Russian Federetaion, syka\bluyat, vodka, beer,Putin). Play NS 2 300 hours and sorry for my English, I know only basic level.

Hi guys,

pyro here (πϱ♂(Ce) in steam). got about 900 h since the day ns2 left beta state.
I'm 25, living in germany, and currently on the brink of my exams in university.
In terms of NS2 shit skills I can offer: terrible aiming, meh lerking and some incredible bad fading.
Apart from that, I love the game (talkin bout 6v6 here), joined some gathers since december and like to play frequently during the weeks evenings. On the weekend I usually cannot play with exception of sunday evenings and 4th/5th of febuary 2017 :P.

Greeting from a jolly fellow :)

PS: For the newcomer tournament I'ld like to bring my friend Herakles with me :P if that is not possible, I take Blrg as a teammate anytime.

Hi, Im 17 about 3000 hrs and i really would like to test comp so i think thats a good pretext :D

can play 28/29 can't play 4/5 just that.
ive already a new account Biscum btw but i wont sign up if i cant play :O

Gamerdad of 43, BI consultant, ex-programmer, voted for 4+5 Feb. Living north of Copenhagen (Denmark).

Will have to see actual proposed match schedule before I can commit 100%. Its generally no problem for me to get time without the kids around, but it has to be organized - I can't clear my calendar completely for 48 hours non-stop.

Absolutely not a very good NS2 player. I can sometimes top the score list on public servers, but I tried a couple of Gathers yesterday, and got absolutely creamed by the guys there - and I hit rock bottom on the score list. :-) But IT WAS STILL A TON OF FUN, and I learned a lot. (Special thanks to Mega, Mephilles and SantaClaws for bearing with me during the games...).

Logged about 500-600 hours in the old NS1, but less than 60 hours in NS2. Fully expect to be "last pick" in teams, but I'm completely OK with that. :-)

I don't know the maps well, except the ones converted from old NS1 maps, but I follow orders and know my place in the hierarchy. Yessir!

I'm commonly known as ViruS / Frisqy.ViruS in-game with the [KoR] (Knights of Reason) clan tag (dropped the arrow symbols due to it bugging out on this forum). I've put thousands of hours into Tremulous but have about 730 current NS2 hours with only about 200 to 300 of those hours in-game online (others were spent offline vs bots while testing my TremNS2 mod, and modding since the Launchpad and builder and anything launched from it for making mods and maps for NS2 counts towards playing hours)

Frisqy.ViruS | Western Australia | ~250 hours online playtime

I don't have planned friends to play with, by my clan discord is over here: https://discord.gg/B6QAmMy
The clan also has its own website: knightsofreason.net/forums

Hello, I'm Nominous from the US. I have 3k hours in NS2 and I main fade. You can watch my local recordings here: https://www.youtube.com/user/Karnaj and on TGNS Replay: http://rr.tacticalgamer.com/Replay/. I'd prefer to play with others close to the US. I look forward to the matches and I hope we can get enough people to show up this time. :P

[RoO] [NA] [100 hours] [Gorge -> Skulk -> Onos] I may not have many hours but I will probably surprise ya, especially on marine ha. I am ex invite (CSS) and GE (CS:GO)

Morrolan, CH-based, ~100 hours, fine with any life forms.

Used to play lots of TF2, and was good at it. Decided to try something else, so now I'm playing NS2 - badly. :P

Hello, I am ByteMe. I am from the US, and have some experience commanding for both teams. I am interested in playing the game with you folks.

Withdrawn until further notice!

Bucketsmith

200 hours
Skulk/Onos/newbieGorge
Crazy Maus, Stormbell, Uncle Buncle Beard, Kvasir, leefkenny, Belly, Gabzzel.

Not sure if I get that right. I also don't know if those guys will also sign up, but just in case they do. :)

As with any game my playstyle is team orientated. I'm keen on teamwork and perform best when playing with a team where everyone knows who's doing what and what to expect.
I don't mind sacrificing myself if that means a more skillfull/important teammate/lifeform/marine stays alive, for instance.
Stats mean nothing.

HEY! used to play ns1 competitively and looking to play again !!

Hey all!
Hoping to get to play this weekend. I am currently in GER but I am from the US. Been playing since NS1. Thanks!

[Vitdom] [EU/Sweden] [975 hours NS2 + additional NS1] [No favorite alien lifeform][English/Swedish]
Hello everyone. I'm Christoffer aka "Vitdom", a 24 year old man from Stockholm, Sweden.
I have mostly played NS2 for fun but have played SCRIMs in groups in the past, but no NSL matches. I love to learn how to command but it is not something I'm very good at. I'd like to invest a lot of time in NS2 for fun and also personal development. Competitive play is something I'm very interested in but I haven't taken the initiative to find any friends or a team to play with.

NS2 is best played when you play as a team, and therefore I'm signing up on this competitive tournament as a regular player, and I hope to be placed together in a nice team with a cool commander and with teammates who all speak English.

Hi guys, I am LolkaBot
[EU|RUS] [3k Hours] [gorge/fade/onos/harvester =]
I didn't know what to write. only fun )

[Aeroplane] [US] [135 hours] [Skulk / (Bad) Lerk / Onos] Signing up with my buddies [Vikadin] [US] [66 hours] [Gorge] and [ArpyClarkson] [US] [25 hours] [Skulk / Onos]. We're all pretty new but have a decent understanding of the game (outside of commanding), figured we'd take this opportunity to play some rounds on the same team :P

All have mics, mustaches (except for Vikadin), can communicate, etc.

Hey guys,
MoreGirlsLessSC here. Would love to join a team and play this saturday/sunday.
I'm comfortable to command on veil, mineshaft, tram, others not so much. Canada, Toronto so I guess North American team for ok ping.
