CS Support is being discontinued by October 15th!
---------------------------------------------------------
I am both sad and overjoyed to announce that DSC will no longer be supporting the Half-Life mod Counter-Strike. It is both a natural progression onto better games and a general feeling about stagnating clan members. There will be much controversy over this change, but it is necessary for DSC's survival. Many members have already switched their guns over to the amazing teamplay of Half-Life WWII mod DAY of DEFEAT. I would encourage all existing CS clan members to switch over and to show up for DoD matches, but if this does not suit you I would like to bid you a thankful farewell. I would like to thank all of our CS players for their continual support over the past year or more of great CS times! I would like to mention especially our to-be CS MVP - Skalragg. Skalragg's CS abilities were uncanny and although his manner is not favoured by many, his accuracy and tactics were second to none. The CS part of DSC will be shutting down by the 15th of October. Say farewell to those Colts guys, and let's get ready for WAR!

CS Team / DoD Squad MATCH! - Saturday 23rd of August in Web Workhouse (WWH) from 11am until 4pm
I apologise for the lack of posts but the MSblaster.exe virus has my computer under its cold dark hand and I've been struggling to free it from the grasp of death.
The Music Selector has been removed.
For everyone interested, I achieved 475pts. in my Leaving Certificate and I am hoping to do Electric and Electronic Engineering in University College Cork.

I'm glad Ungo finally gave into peer pressure and joined DSC because we need good Counter-Strike players! At the same time it seems we have been purged of a certain ViRuS, just a tad odd.

DSC has finally branched into its 3 constituent parts. CS Team, DOD Squad, and Warsp0rk. Hope you guys enjoy the changes! It took a bit of doing with Su's messy code. :]
If you want to be shown as playing an extra game like WC3 or DOD or maybe both, just lemme know and I'll update it for you asap. Also, I will require your details again for each new game, and if possible, a new image to accompany the info. Thanks guys!

In the words of William Wallace, "FREEEEEEEEEDOM!"
I have vanquished the Leaving Certificate, and now DSC will rock the planet like never before. I am going to schedule the DSC Trials for some time in the next two weeks, so be ready to show up or be kicked out. It will be on one of the next two Saturdays. If you have a problem with this, post it on the forum NOW!
DOD Squad Night went well, and I would like to thank RuaRi, Paravoid, and Ogma for showing their support. The remainder of DSC's matches will take place during the day for those of you who wouldn't be allowed make it to a further all-nighter. Polish your pistols guys, and get ready to run and gun the way to the top!
The Magic Gran Prix Qualifier went terrible. All 4 DSC representatives got the 4 last places in the tournament of under 30 people. It was Ruari's first tourney, and I think he will be playing more.
Please e-mail me your preference for the upcoming 3 DSC sectors. Tell me of the following which you would like to be associated with. I will post you as playing the games you want me to. The games are: Warcraft III, Day of Defeat, Counter Strike (to be v1.6 soon)

Finally got into an accident on the scooter. Crashed into a van-ette on the hill by the resivoir dam. Bad ferring damage to the scooter, but my gear and I are fine. It's all due to Scourge, and my horrible desire for it. I still haven't gotten my hands on a single card, and it's been out for more than a week! I'll get pics of the bike uploaded asap.

I hope that you'll all be there for the premier of DSC's DoD Squad! It's going to be a blast. We already have 4 people going and that's before I even put up the ad for the thing. It's time to polish those rifles and get kicking at the best mod since CS! They are selling the thing retail with a few extra goodies thrown in for approx 20 euro if you don't want to be arsed downloading the thing. Wish me luck, my exams start tomorrow!

Day of Defeat v1.0 is now out for download and purchase! I have played this for approx. 7 hours now in Web Workhouse and I have to say that it is leaps and bounds over CS in terms of teamplay. The introdution of new weapons and the Brits make this new version an extremely desireable replacement for CS.
New Pics of Counter-Strike: Condition Zero have been released! This single-player bot intact version of CS is due to come out October 1st. Lets cross our fingers and hope they don't scrap this 3rd version of the game! Here's a model shot to keep you busy.

Sorry for the confusion, I got about 4 different people over the last few weeks asking me when I was going in on saturday when it was really the previous saturday, I should have specified a date, so sorry about that for all concerned! I will try not to make that mistake again.
Just for those interested, in Carlow last Saturday I ranked 80/84 people after the first day. Basically it was 2 Rochester drafts which were my 1st taste of the good 'ole Roch followed by 3 round of Swiss each. Overall I only won 1 match but won 5 games, so I was happy enough. When I couldn't draft good cards, I rare-drafted other out of theirs because I couldn't stay for the 2-day venue. I made out with some nice cards and if anyones up for a match against either of my tourney-constructed decks, you're on! (I keep my most recently attended tourney-constructed decks built for fun)

I've got a few goodies for you guys today, and some more on the way as well. I will soon post the beta version of the Warcraft III map that I have been working on for download, but for the moment I'll just give you guys the IreDSC.ico (ICON) file that has gotten much applause to date from those who have it. Also I thought that it would be nice to upload some pics of my scooter in case any of you had an interest to see what I'm riding. I'll be in town on saturday for an hour or two with Skalragg and some other DSC guys if anyone wants to have some fun.
Oh yes, and just to prove my point about my bike, of which some poor remarks were said by a mr.Ruari, I would like to quote T.W.O magazine in what they said about my Suzuki Estilete.

You probably noticed the new DSC logo out front and are wondering why a Warcraft unit is bearing the DSC symbol. Soon enough, DSC is going to be opening new sectors for players of Warcraft 3 and maybe another game or so due to player requests. This summer the 2nd annual DSC Trials will be held in Web Workhouse. Basically, this is the cleaning out of inactive members and the hailing of the best players with awards (like MVP).

I apologize for the lull in activity on the site, but I'm currently in the middle of my mock-exams (Pre's) and am under heavy pressure. I swear that once the summer comes round, well, June 20th to be precise, at around 5 pm it will all get better. Exams will be completed and there won't be anything on my plate, so I can focus again on the clan. Thanks to everyone who has kept with it, it will all be rewarded in the end.

No replay this time, but classzdefiler won this friday's SC competition. It was a 1v1 (classzdefiler vs. Zimtok5). /w classzdefiler your spray as requested is on the extras - sprays page
Also, I haven't been hearing much interest in the DoD Squad so it's matches may be postponed untill summer. I'm sorry that the Specialties links only occur on this page but I am currenly being pressed by upcoming Leaving Cert. Pre's and I really don't have time to fix it yet.
For everyone who has been showing up to the SC matches, thanks alot! And for everyone else, I will be scheduling a CS clan match soon, so watch the site for info!

I would like to draw your attention to the new specialties section in the navigation menu. This section pertains to anything non-CS but that which is still clan related.
Basically, at the moment this is the place to go if you want to see who in the clan is doing the extracurricular activites currently available like DoD and StarCraft.

I forgot to mention it but on friday night RuaRi did a great job of winning 2 StarCraft matches during the 3 player FFA match. Both times, he dominated the opposition utilizing his 'pump-out-Battlecruisers' tecnique. You can download the replay here, just right click and save target on the link SC22-02-2003. Place this inside your starcraft/maps/replays directory, and from the single player part of the game you can watch it so long as your StarCraft version is on the latest patch.
I decided to finally upload the pics from my house party that a few of the clan members came to. Here they are in all their shocking glory...
[- The Party -
Illegal Yautja - Shiny HAL -]
Yesterday, on Sunday, we had a Counter Strike match in Web Workhouse. It was a 5v5 versus (DOA)'s clan on de_dust2. We did not have all of our best players there, but we still gave them a run for their money (and our money) until our money ran out and they beat us 2-10 as Ts and again 2-10 as CTs. I would like to honor Skalragg for his great performance during and after the match. He tried to keep our team together, but to no avail. Thanks to Skalragg, ClassZdefiler, Titan, and Rincewind for showing up to the match on very short notice, or no notice at all in Rincewind's case! I'm hoping that next time we can substitute Titan or even myself for a player like HAL9000 or Yautja if he ever decides to come back!

Hey sorry guys about the last minute cancellation of the DoD match. It is rescheduled for next Saturday. We just didn't have enough people to go this time. There is still a clanmatch on tomorrow, this is against the D.O.A. (dead on arrival) clan.
On a non-clan related note, today I went to a Magic: The Gathering tournament and placed 8th out of about 40 players using a mono-red deck. My match score was 3.5-1 with the last match being a special type of draw. That equated to 10pts and qualified me for the next Irish MTG Nationals in Carlow! I have to especially thank Thomas Ralph, a level 2 judge and a friend of mine for lending me his 'Evil Red' deck. Guys, wish me luck in Carlow because I'm really going to need it!

Clanmatch on Sunday in WWH against some unknown clan who's leader/member crept up to me one day in Pres and slyly suggested a clanmatch. I still don't have a clue who we are up against or the guy's name but he said Sunday and I said okay...make it high noon, and bring yer revolvers for the shootout! Just kidding, I am still too sure of the time but those DSC guys who show up will be 'accomodated for'.
Hmm, it seems the world has turned topsy-turvey and d34gl3_3v4n just can't live without DSC, so he has rejoined the clan. (That's something Yautja has yet to do...)
Well, well, what's new? I have been thinking of forming the first DSC DoD Squad. So far, there has been a pretty good response to this idea. I will need 8 players who are available and willing to play Day of Defeat in Web Work House (hopefully up in the isolation chamber) every other Saturday from 10am till Noon beginning with this one. I suppose trials will be on this Saturday, so whoever shows gets in.
Also, so far we have a 4-player Starcraft game running onine every Friday night in channel Dripsey. Contact me for the time if you are interested, there are 4 more slots available!
Was this the longest post yet? Amazing...
(P.S. I recently got the insurance on my scooter so watch out for me and the heaven's devils scooter gang!)

Hmm. I'm legal they tell me. 18 years and all I get for it is the title of adult and the legal permission to drink alcohol.
February, on Saturday the 8th, I will be having a CS party for my 18th at Web Workhouse (well 80% sure at this point). Obviously I can't book the place, so anyone who doesn't get 'invited' is okayed by me to show up. I will hopefully be running my own server for the day, so we don't have to deal with any unwanteds.
Hope to see you guys there!

For anyone interested WarpCon XIII is on at UCC this weekend starting friday. Registration is in the student building in UCC on Friday. Admission is 14 euro, and there are loads of games to play within. There will be RPG's (including LARP's), Magic: The Gathering, and Warhammer (normal + 40K), and all sorts of other things. I have gone to 2 of the previous year's WarpCon's, and let me tell you it's a card-floppers / dice-rollers heaven! Hope to see you guys there.

But classic? Certainly. I'm trying to get an 8-player melee up on friday nights... so if anyone is available please email me.
Note: The DSC server has changed its IP. (see 'server ips' page) Every week at 7pm-9pm there is a general CS practice. Please show your support!

I'm thinking of letting HAL9000 (my brother) take over the site just for the next 5 months whilst I study for and complete my Leaving Cert. in June.
Wait a minute... *signal transmission*...
'This just in from the Board of Education! - The Leaving Cert. Officially Sucks!'
1 day until school re-opens... and that means studying, grinds, and overall torture. If I suddenly disappear, don't worry, HAL will take over for me.
Oh wait, I just remembered, I'm being banned from the PC until Leaving Cert is done with. Oh well, you guys WON'T be seeing me at all then. Only 5 months to go, and I've got to take a Spanish Oral in March, so back to the books. See you guys in summer!

That's about it...I'm running out of things to say. Oh yes, DSC are likely to be getting their very own server with a fixed ip address. I'll let you guys know if this does come about. I didn't say it before but at the latest online match DSC beat HnR (Hit n' Run) at 11:10. It was a close match all around. Check out match comments for more details.
Happy New Year!

Well, well... its almost the end of 2002, and in the 'Happy New Year' spirit, I have compiled some of the sprays I have made from the year and added them to the clan extras, sprays page. There are 6 new multi-color sprays, 2 of these being gum-wrappers that I scanned in during blizzards of boredom.
Here is the list of new sprays:
{Bloody Scar, Bloodulator, Hippy?, DSC Skull Ad, Wrigley's Gum, Juicy Fruit Gum}
Download wally (the spray program), and have fun online with these new sprays.

It seems that Yautja has quit from the clan and gone off with his favorite sheep!
HAL9000 (aka my dumbass little brother) seems to have pissed him off enough to make him quit the clan, take down the site, and go marry a sheep (Warning: Only 2 of these is true). Really I am not to sure what happened, but I think HAL kicked him from an online clan match (DSC v HnR).
Anyways, I will be taking over the site management again, so if you have any troubles feel free to contact me. However much I enjoy this new responsibility, I also have the Leaving Cert. still to deal with, so please bear in mind that site updates could be quite scare, especially come summer (as the L.C. in in June). Good luck guys, I will be scheduling another LAN-Match for clan members soon, so watch the site.

Another site update, again! Revolver Ocelot has been added to the clan pages, sorry about the delay. We've also got a new piece of artwork by Skalragg, it's the usual DSC scar now given an Irish twist. Go see it on the Clan Extras page.
We'll also be holding a clan practice session on Friday the 27th on our own Barrysworld server. All clan members should've received an email about this (if not, email HAL). A clan match versus HnR is scheduled for after the clan practice. Goto the Next Clan Match page to find out more.

First of all, the rest of the site updates (ie. spelling mistake corrections and clan member infos) will be coming up later in the weekend.
Anyway, it seems we may be soon getting our own clan server. But it will cost us.
Let HAL explain:
"Ok, I found out some details about a possible server. We'll able to have 4 hrs of booking time each week, for clan matches and practices etc. We only have to pay £24 a year, this is reduced though to £12 a year because our clan leader, Zimtok5, has a GAME membership card.
Email h4l9000@hotmail.com if you are interrested. We need £1 from each member or at least some word of support to go ahead with this.
Thanks."

|
| n e w s | 14 december 2002 | site updates, forum happenings and trials | - Yautja
|
Another site update. Members Praetorian, Archangel and Oxy have been removed from the clan due to long periods of absenteeism. Wamphyre and Zimtok5's profiles have also been updated.
Alot has been happening in the DSC forums. It seems that Skalragg, our resident General Discussion moderator, has been giving a few forum regulars a hard time with his apparently oppresive and thread deleting rule. Meanwhile RuaRi, moderator of the "free world" of the riddles section, has set up a resistance movement in an attempt to liberate the enslaved General Discussioners into his section. Skalraggism propaganda claims that he deleted the threads because they were spreading anti-skalraggism and making personal attacks on his dictatorship. What will be the result of this interesting turn of events? Only time will tell...
On another note, on Friday the 13th (oooh!), we (HAL and I) trialed 2 regular attendants of clan practice sessions - Ungoliant and Legolas (Tolkien fanatics are taking over the world!!). The basic idea was that they had to win 4 rounds in 10. They didn't. Oh well... maybe next time.

Anyway, it seems that we may have a new recruit - AngelFrogg. I've known this guy for awhile now and he seems pretty handy with CS. Expect to see him in future online matches!

Yep, it's finally here, the new DemonSkullClan.com site design by yours truly.
Gone are the days of ugly images, "Copyright 2002 Brad Peyton" and Mr. Z is Zimtok5 (sorry Zimtok  ). To be replaced by not so ugly images, "Copyright 2002 Demon Skull Clan" and some other stuff... Let us rejoice in this wonderous new gift that is the site redesign! All hail Yautja as the new god (of the site at least)! Muhahahaha!
Ok, I've had my fun. But you still need to check out the site and post your thoughts in the forum. C'mon now, the nav bar is to your right...
