    A bit about your gaming history

    Started out online about 7 years ago now on Kingpin… man, what a violent game that was! Was in a clan called THO, nicknamed Manslaughter. Was pretty good. Then went away to Uni, and quit playing. Only just got online again. Wanted to meet some like-minded BF2 folks after finding out how awesome the game is. Found this Motley Crew! 😉

    A bit about your gaming history:

    Started to play on amstrad 464 and 6128 but really got into video games with my commodore amiga 500 (what a comp it was) then had a break for almost 10 years and came back to the computer world in 2000 with the internet and games… then started with games like command and conquer or civilisation, moved to doom and then battlefield…. you guess what happened next. I really discovered the XDC server with BFV where I get on well with a few ppl, then they offered me to join after long discussions about getting a frog in the clan… cheers for that 😀 … a bit away from the server nowadays because of, dunno why really but if my bot is not here , my heart is still here!

    Favorite food:

    anything, but you british really taught me sthg about vegetarian food which was completly impossible to think about before I went to britain. we french are far too much narrow minded about food, ‘you dont have much to show us about that’ would say a lot of ppl but i think we shd really think about opening our eyes to the others about that as you can…

    Battlefield 2 Bad ass rating:

    dunno really, I can have my moments of glory like last night with twice as many points as the 2nd best on the server but I can also see a round doing nothing good… anyway does it matters?
