The time has come for me to say goodbye..

[el_dazza]

Crikey, where did those 12 years of my life go?

I've come to the decision (with a little help from Valve) to retire from playing CS. The recent update fiasco hasn't helped matters and it's with a heavy heart that I must say goodbye. I was contemplating walking away anyway for my own good but this was the final nail in the coffin as it were. There have been a lot of changes within the Ambrosia community in the time I've been here and some people are probably thinking "who the .... are you?", but I'm sure a few of you will know me.

I've taken part in some of the most competitive cs games in the past 12 years, been to many LANs, met some amazing people, had some great fun and laughs all through playing a silly computer game. It's weirdly been a massive part of my life so it's quite difficult to write this.

There have been times where I could be a bit.. angry towards people. I'm truly sorry for these times, but this isn't applied within the game but to everything I do in life purely because I strive for perfection. Being less than perfect at something is not an option for me. I could probably have been a very good snooker / darts player, golfer, but I just don't have the patience and it frustrates me when something goes wrong. More often than not i'll take it out on someone who doesn't deserve it, so if this was you, again I'm sorry.

1,321 hours of CS are on my steam record. Add this to about 100 hours of LANs and somewhere around the 500 hours mark before Steam came along, that's pushing 2,000 hours of gaming time for one game alone! Probably somewhere between 150,000 and 250,000 kills in that time and every single one was as meaningful and gave me a rush as the last.

Thanks to all the people I've got to know through Ambrosia and you know who you are. Some of you (Shane in particular) I've known for a lot longer so you know what I'm like as a person and it was great playing mixes and matches with you, having a laugh over ventrilo at 3 in the morning and making fun of it. Ambrosia is one of the greatest communities you could hope to come across so don't let it go to the dogs. Until we meet again..

Good luck in life Dazza

[Shane]

Shame to see you leave this game after such a long time but i do understand where you are coming from, it's been a pleasure to know you and playing with you, indeed we had some very good times in the mixes, was a good laugh. I hope to see you come online from time to time even if it is just to say "Hi"

Good luck with what you decide to do and look after yourself.

Regards,
Shane.

Goodbye El_Dazza also as some people around here called you a "Mexican Gangster" lol. Hope you find what to do next after the long years of playing always counter-strike. One of the best players from Ambrosia Classic and DD2 server apart from other fail cheaters and fagies alike.   

Goodluck with whatever you decide to do next

ps. Can you pm me your steam name by any chance some time soon?

I always said I wouldn't quit because of this, as that's what Valve would have wanted to try and make people buy CS:GO, more $$$ for them but I don't really have a choice. My PC isn't really good enough and without the CPL mousefix it's impossible to tune the settings to be able to be as accurate as I used to be. Was great playing with you too burz

Uhmm we might not know each other but ... With some help you can fix CS and make those 2000 hours on cs count.
I expect from you a strong come back to a higher level of gameplay. Well I have steam since 4-5  months and I got about 1400 hours recorded other than LAN since I was 5.
And I still expect myself to get better.
I bet you are good but valve can't stop from getting somewhere higher than this.

I know you will probably ignore what I said or not read this since it's long, so I will just say goodluck in life and hope you come back with a bigger hope than mine

Cheers.

Gl dazza.

Have played with you a number of times. Sad to see another old skooler hang up the AK.

Didn't know you went that far back tbh. Did you used to play on Dustworld back in the day? (2003 ish)?

If you did our paths probably crossed at some point.

Gl, take care .
