MK64 - Finishing 1st in 7 of 8 races on first 2 cups in 4P Versus mode against Eli, Ben, and Greg. The other was a 2nd place, 1s behind Greg.

GE Multi - Winning 21-0 on 2v2 (Paragon and me vs. Greg and Randy) on Basement, RLs, 10 minutes. Who knows.

GE Multi - Stopping an unlimited Bunker LTK game at 40-25-11 (Paragon-me-Greg). Paragon admitted he was impressed (yay!)

GE Multi - Bad: Losing 39-0 on proxies Facility to Paragon (on unlimited, about 15 minutes passed).

GE - 1:31 Caverns SA after no more than 15 minutes of effort (after longer campaigns on other missions)

GE - Got 2nd on our 1st agent race (6 of us), only because I couldn't get the grenade trick to work on Cradle. I watched in the screen next time me as Greg beat me to the finish, winning by about 3 or 4 seconds. I killed Trev the "traditional" way, feeling lucky to have a 1:30 after the Grenade trick failed.

GE - Today we thought it would be fun to try to get all 60 1998 records as fast as we could (group effort). I actually tied the 1:04 Facility SA on my 3rd run, one we agreed would be the most annoying (good Doak, good Trev) (2004 edit: LOL..should've had sub 1:00 or something).

GE - Bad: Greg beats my Dam 00 time by a second (2:07). If not for me his PR would be worth 0 pts.

NHL 96 - Blew out Eli 8-0 in 2nd period in a 12-3 win in what was supposed to be a highly anticipated close match.

PD Ch.30, 4P - 18-0 lead very first game with Greg, Dirk, Eli, me. Not long afterward we got a 17-0 shutout, highlighted by a 6+ minute battle for the big hill :O (2004 edit: I forgot I was a part of a 4P shutout...)

PD Ch.30, 4P - With a stronger team (Ben, Randy, me, Eli) we went up 19-0 on 4 hills our very first game. We later had another game with an 18-0 lead, but we got tired of the framerate quickly.

NHL 96 - 20-4 win over Eli!!!

MP3 - 20-turn game on 4P shaping up (4-1-0-0) before Eli shut it off prematurely. (2004 edit: what a jackass.)

PD Ch.30 - As Greg, Randy, and Ben rewinded their 27-0 on 3P, they watched Eli and I finish up a 21-0 on 2P, and saw me win 3 medals with a 28-kill, 4-death performance. (2004 edit: all my ch. 30 paid off! hehe...)

GE Multi - After 2 hours of practice on 1.2 (yep...) I beat Randy 16-7 on LTK pistols facility...? It seemed he was not trying, to boost my morale but said otherwise. He was using Jaws. The next game, however, I beat Eli 14-10 on the same settings, and Eli was definitely trying. He was on his "native" 1.1.

GE Multi - Had an unreal (fluky) double kill: TURBO mode on Temple, 4P LTK pistols...with a Cougar Magnum I took a shot and killed two opponents with one bullet (that were pretty far away) in a wide open room, one being the diminutive Oddjob. Remember, GE turbo = insane. Everyone found it pretty hilarious because it was so lucky.

PD Ch. 30 - My first game trying 1.2 I won 10-2. The following game I lost the first hill but got 10 pts unanswered for a 10-2. The third game was also 10-2! 2004 edit: I never tried 1.2 ever again...)



July 16-18

(All I remember is massive Caverns 00 failure)



The end.
