Just had one of those games where all the luck goes in your favour. Hit this worldie of a frag. A proper retirement frag.

@TheUltraLex @BalanceBF I need to remember this response the next time someone says a version of 'ThE KidS cAn'T hANdlE qUakE' in the comments. Never felt like a satisfactory explanation - and I say this as an old man.

Met up with @tanzong830 in Brum this weekend to talk Quake and avoid the Christmas market. They gave me a load of awesome merch and this original piece of art. So cool 🙏

A game industry legend died a few mins ago, Rebecca Heineman (@burgerbecky), taken away by aggressive lung cancer. She oversaw the porting of Wizordum to the Mac OS most recently for Apogee. My local friends would often have dinner with her and I loved her industry stories and humor. She will be missed.

Earlier, we ran a community poll in our Telegram channel to choose the map pool for the upcoming EGB Oldmap tournament. The voting has now concluded, and the results are in.

With 33% of the vote, the winning map set includes: Blood Run, Campgrounds, Lost World, Proving Grounds, and Vertical Vengeance. These maps will be featured in the next EGB Oldmap tournament.

We’re already preparing the event schedule. The official date will be announced in advance so everyone can tune in.
