I am sad to announce that Exelcior defeated Clan Necronomicon with 636-499 points in the match that was played tonight. But, it was only a 2 vs 2 match since all of the [EC] players didn't show up, and the NEC choice of map was discarded. Read more about the game in the Battles section.
Wow, 1000 visitors have been here!
Another player has joined Clan Necronomicon, [NEC]Bear. You are very welcome! A stop for new members is now active.

Today I received Exelcior's choice of map. It is E2M1 with DM-mode 3. It will be a 3 vs 3 match since Exelcior couldn't gather more than 3 players. But since Moloko will be late, NEC is also one man short. =) The NEC choice of map is CTF2M2, also with DM-mode 3. No LPB's will participate. A report about the game will be available here tomorrow.
The number of visitors is getting closer to 1000. Who will be nr 1000?

I received a challenge from Exelcior earlier today and a match will probably be played at Tuesday, February 10. All arrangements are not ready yet.
Diamond Multimedia is releasing the Monster 3D II in March. I will buy one as soon as it is available in the stores. Read a review at Tom's Hardware, one of the best hardware sites on the Internet. The card is based on the Voodoo 2 chip manufactured by 3Dfx.

My first update! Done entirely by myself thanks to our excellent Webmaster Headhunter, eventhough I am "off-line" for this and next week. However, I can't let go fully, even if certain "forces" would want me to : - )

After Clan Necronomicon's last defeat against TSM I think we have started to move in a different direction. We are looking for new players! The first time we got a request from a person joining we (unfortunately) digested the request too long (SpaceŇ, you know who you are : - ) ). The reason was that the Clan members at that time had all met in real life, ie we knew eachother by face and we did not know if we wanted any others to join.... However, this have been subject to change and we recently welcomed TURBO from Oslo in Norway, into Clan Necronomicon, and by joining he also made Clan Necronomicon an international Clan. Furthermore, Headhunter will also be evaluating some prospective members these coming days. So if any other interested players are reading this, contact him for time and place if you want to join. We need some "lethal" new members.

What we also need is training... Up until TURBO joined we were four players playing all the matches and thus we knew eachother fairly well. In our last match against TSM we lost not only because we were ridicously bad in 1 on 1 situations, but also by the fact that it was TURBO's first match and we were lacking templay training together with him. By adding a few players we will be able to practise together and also develop the templay needed for being able to change players in matches....

The VIP page will be updated with tactics. The tactics worked out this far need to be refined, and my aim is to create general tactics and strategies flexible enough to master any map and any resistance... (aim for the stars and you might reach the top of the trees : - ) ). My advice to the players in Clan Necronomicon in the meantime would be to develop a SET number of "messages" and learn to use them. Do not change messages too oftem, rather think the setup through thoroughly and then stick to it.... If anyone need assistance do not hesitate to contact Headhunter or me.

Hopefully when I return on-line after my "celabacy from Quake" Clan Necronomicon will have a number of new members... Until then, keep in shape!
