I actually can't remember how long I've been squadding with you guys. I know I applied once back at the end of 2007, so it's been 6 years since I was accused of being too young and all that.. :sorry: Can safely say I've cleared that hurdle.

I r still for liking to be a grrrbian!!

Seriously, I'm envious of those tags! Want some of my own to show off :) Pleeeeeease? :p rod:

Super seriously, I'm going to be playing BF4 for the foreseeable future and the only peeps I'm interested in joining up with is [grrr]. I might be dabbling in some CoD again one day if the clan play becomes worthwhile.

kmckelvin, I remember running around with you in BF2 and BF2 Special Forces with ducky and leppy and nightyshade back in '05/'06. I still have a vivid image in my mind of you throwing C4 at me in one of the Spetznaz bases. Me trying to backpedal as fast as possible because you were a master at throwing the C4 far.

You got my vote to join, but applications are closed as you know. Don't give up though, call Paul and douche and you'll probably get some extra street cred.

About damn time!!! You will need to answer the questions. Phatso also posted "Application Closed" for now on the front page so we will need him to open the door a smidge or you will need to wait until Grrr starts recruiting again

Murgs! You've got me reminiscing over the glory days now, before EA patched my C4 whoring away :( I still haven't forgiven them. Although a bit of C4 madness has returned in BF4 now! Those BF2 SF night maps were all kinds of awesome, many hours went into squadding with you and Guidog back then.

I see the big nasty CLOSED sign, but duckles said I need to just open a thread, so here it is :)

As per the PH4TSO GRRR LEADERSHIP MANUAL - Chapter 4 - Page 323 - Section C - Subsection iiiv
One may under exceptional circumstances open applications for one person, should the person be a partial no brainer


Consider this an exception :)

So why the nick "Nimbzy"? What other nicks have you used?
First person shooters only or do you get dirty on MMORPG's or cerebral on Strat Games?
Having been in some competitive setups, you realise that we are semi-competitive but mostly casual and still happy to apply?
Would you want to play in BF League games if the opportunity presented?

Nimbz was a smurf name I used a few years ago when I started playing CoD4, and it just kind of stuck. Its origin: I threw three consonants down and put a couple of letters between to make it pronounceable. I've played as Statik in BF2142 as well.

I'm mostly into FPS, though I might dabble in something like DotA once a year or so.

While I was in some competitive setups in the past, that was while I was at school and had hundreds of hours to throw at it. I've grown up a little since then and things like work/life balance are far more important. I don't think I'll ever go back to a fully competitive setup again and I think you guys have nailed the casual / semi-competitive balance.

If the league games do come up I'll definitely be up for that, and put the time in to join practices as need be.
