No regrets.

So yesterday, I decided not to update about the result of the Left 4 Dead competition to simply play Dawn of War 2. I'll just do it now.

My team got 3rd place, which gave us RM400, Rm100 each, and a Portal retail pack, which all of us already have with the purchase of The Orange Box.

I have to admit, the result this time around is rather disappointing, as my team finished a campaign in an hour and 17 minutes, which we could usually have done it in an hour at most.

What's even more surprising was, a last-minute team (my friends too) cleared the game in 47 minutes, and another team of strangers did it in 41 minutes, which I find very surprising. We thought that 47 minutes was already more than enough to give them first place.

What really messed up my team was poor coordination, and friendly fire damage. I should have gathered the team for more practice session. Ah well, 3rd place is good enough for me, the RM100 is already more than half the price of the upcoming Tom Clancy's EndWar, which releases 25th February according to Steam.

According to the organizers, they will be making more competitions in the next few months, and gather the best teams for a grand finals somewhere around August, which I find very exciting.

My team has done their best, even I messed up every now and then, so I guess I am mostly at fault for not being able to lead my team to victory. We'll reclaim our throne next time. You guys are the best ;]

For now, lets do our best at the upcoming Team Fortress 2 competition this coming saturday, 28th February/



Gaming is OUR passion, what's yours?
