Col is now EG

In a press release on 14th december, Alex Garfield, owner of the Evil Geniuses' organization, announced a historic team shuffle. The new team goes like this :

• Jordan "n0thing" Gilbert
• Danny "fRod" Montaner
• Matt "Warden" Dickens
• Tyler "Storm" Wood
• Corey "hanes" Hanes
  

Shocked !!!! Yah man EG has hired 4 of the Col guys to be part of their CS team. After the downfall CGS (no doubt source sucks !! and I knew it was gonna happen some day), it was obvious that Col was goin to return to 1.6, And here they are.

The basic outline of this team as told by frod in an interview will be :

• Warden : no doubt he is the cap, as expected warden is the strat caller and he will also will be playing his role as an aggressive gunner.
• Frod : The star of stars ..the prime AWPer.
• Storm : Will continue to support the team with his rifle skills.(He always remind me of the colt obsession).
• Hanes : Known for his fast acrobatic movements is another gunner for the team.
• Nothing : the young-blood.. he will again be an aggressive gunner.to what he calls as "Runnin and gunnin".

When asked about Rambo not being the part of this new team frod responded "Our team has always had a formula and certain way we approach the game in terms of strategy, teamwork, and etc. This has been a defined formula that we as a team know is proven to work, going all the way back to the success of United 5 in 2003. We have always had every member of the team follow their certain role, and in doing so we feel we are most successful. Ron was a great player, but he didn't fit well with the formula, nor did he adjust to it, which made things difficult sometimes".

We hope Nothing fits well as United 5. Even Nothing was happy with his new team-mates showing a slight negative response for old EG.He commented "It just wasn't working out. As much as I liked those guys, we weren't seeing eye to eye anymore and I'm looking forward to playing with the new EG players."

Now when this great line up is ready we hope they rock the world. Regarding performance no one must doubt them.They are few of the most senior players in the e-sports scene. Regarding 1.6 .. its their true game. They stood second in CEVO 9 and won CGS Pro-am 1.6. And that was when their main focus was on source . Now hope they shine again ...

Best of luck Col ..ooops!! Sorry .. EG

Best of luck for 2009.

What is Temperature inside hell ???

A thermodynamics professor had written a take-home exam for his graduate students. It had one question:
May 1997, Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer II Final Exam Question: "Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with truth.
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:
"First, we postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving? I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell.
Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.
Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant.
Case 1: If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.
Case 2: If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Theresa Banyan during my freshman year, "it will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I still have NOT Succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then case 2 cannot be true. Thus, hell is exothermic."
The student got the only A

Counter-Strike Maps

Due to my immense exposure to counter-strike..I do lot of technical stuff related to counter-strike.And designing new counter-strike is somthing I love doing. I have made many counter-Strike maps. Some of them are

• eP_m4a1 : Dedicated to Clan eP,This is small combat map ,each player is given a colt-m4a1,an armour and a pistol. The target is to eliminite opposite team. This map is very helpful in increasing your skills on maverick,and is a fun play for 2 to 6 players. Thanx to my team-mate SataN for giving idea for this map. Download
• afk_6killer_nogrens : The concept of this map was brain-child of my another team-mate RuuD.This is a modification of most played map of IT BHU..afk_6killer. Its very frustrating when people use excessive grenades in this map.And hence this is the map for those who love to frag by bullets . Download
• fy_saket : I thought to mention this map becoz this was my first map.Though its just a single square room,meant only for two players, But then also it is a funfilled map.So do give it a try. Download

There are few other maps that I am thinking to implement but not able to do so sue to some other commitments. de_mininuke_a and de_minidust2_b are two of them.

..The ballad of square root of 3..

I fear that I will always be
A lonely number like root three
A three is all that's good and right
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath a vicious square-root sign?
I wish instead I were a nine
For nine could thwart this evil trick
With just some quick arithmetic
I know I'll never see the sun
As 1.7321
Such is my reality
A sad irrationality
When, hark, just what is this I see?
Another square root of a three
Has quietly come waltzing by
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer
Rejoicing as an integer
We break free from our mortal bonds
And with a wave of magic wands
Our square-root signs become unglued
And love for me has been renewed
