I downloaded my first copy of Armagetron in early 2002. I only played locally, but didn't like it as much as other lightcycle games so I deleted it after a few days. In December 2007 I decided to try it again, but that time I played online and got addicted for a few years.

ArmagetronAd is more than just a game to me - it's a creative outlet.

• I've made lots of textures and models, most of which can be found here.

• I like drawing cycles and made a bunch of icons.

• There is some music I wrote for (inspired by) the game called ALERT! Restricted Mainframe Access

• I created some sound effects in anticipation of a future Arma version. Also, some moviesounds I made are in this thread.

• I am responsible for the Adventures of TRON family of servers. They are totally awesome.

• Sometimes I use Arma for purely artistic purposes.

• I wrote some web-tools to make tournaments run a little easier.

• How about this achievement badge creator? Sweet, huh?

• After years of not having one, I finally wrote up a Capture the Flag strategy guide. (Includes a 15 page manual on defense, plus a couple essays on holing and base-camping.)

• And I've even done streaming commentary on Ladles.

• I won a few tournaments:
  • Ladle 49
  • Brawl 13
  • Brawl 21
  • Illegal Exit 1
  • Illegal Exit 2

• Also won Tronnies in the years 2010, 2011, 2012, & 2013.

I'm sometimes mocked for my catchphrase, "sumo is luck." There just happens to be more scoring randomness in Sumo than other game modes because of it's design, and a little luck goes a long way in Sumo.
