Simple Cars by A Simple Mind

More Garry's Mod fun:







I feel kinda horrible RIDING Gman. A pretty noob way to construct and ride custom vehicles.

Here's something for the Holy Hwguy (HWGUY lovers, do not hate me for this T_T). More hax than the Gman one (without using a preset vehicle), it has wheels but no motor yet. Will get down to it with more time.

Coffee and Excess Tea

Har. Har. So I made a pun on XsT. You can give me polite laughter now Mass.

So here we go, last Sunday's kopi outing and the unintended LAN Game that happened after. The full set at high-res will be uploaded in a zip archive to the XsT server when we get our bandwidth back. Meanwhile, enjoy!


Yes. The circle of power as usual.


Stacking at work. Apologies to our friends from the TF2 community that day. We were doing some lame shit in the name of fun on the server and I'm sorry if we ruined your Sunday game.


KFC dinner concluded our day. Sum licks a chick.


This one is for you Mass, we thought we might take a sad photo as opposed to all the other happy photos we take at our outings to let you know we miss you.


And what's this?! We hang around Cathay so much, you can now get there via Portal. And that's Spiddy standing behind a grate... MISSION BEGINS IN TEN SECONDS! FIVE...FOUR...THREE...TWO! Quick Xeon, grief him.

Thanks for making time to come down everyone, we'll see you soon. Sick and Stupendous, have a good flight!

Fun with GM

mut-|XsT| just got Garry's Mod.
Cake for all!

<3 Spies.

"Every First Person For Himself"



My buddy Sean Tay, illustrator, painted this image. I love the title. See if you can name all the FPS characters, there are a couple of old-school ones!

Team Attrition Weekend


If you're at home this weekend, head over to the private XsT server (kindly hosted by our very own Xeon). With at least 10 online, we're doing standard matched classes (or as some people like to call it, "scrim"). Call it whatever you want, but there's going to be more screaming at each other and fragging this weekend! Details will be released to you via Steam when you get online.

Poll: Who is sexier?


In the recent poll of "Who is sexier?", our nominees all received good support from their fans. Sick came in third with a total of 17% of voters. Sick, who has recently been clocking hours playing spy, has probably attracted some voters with his rear assaults. Q made away with 31% of votes, showing that his pocket rocket still sets some sirens going off. But the big winner is Massacre with 52% of votes. The flaming too-hot-to-handle pyro lover was axe-actly what voters wanted. It appears that Massacre's strong and silent personality in game has garnered him much attraction. His conversations in-game usually consists of muffled cheers and screams, leaving much to the imagination. Go Mass!

An Era complete.














One day, in the not too distant past, a group of unsuspecting engineers stumbled upon a large quantity of materials.














Their excitement outweighed their astonishment in this seemingly infinite number of play toys, as they relished the possibilities of this mark of good fortune.















At first, they only saw brotherhood and progress, setting aside their differences in colour.














They started small, mixing similar architecture but creatively.














They even split the amount to hire a jet pack to take aesthetically pleasing aerial shots.



























Overjoyed with their success, they danced and made merry, and laced the moment perfectly with small amounts of fireworks.















They were almost inseparable, establishing a name in the process.















It was really, a sight to behold.


And then it happened. One person from the Red race accidentally stepped on the last toe of one of the Blue race engys. Despite wearing protective gear and steel-toe construction boots, the Blue race engys saw it as racial abuse and while this heated conversation went on; curiously, talks of mothers and sisters came up.















They rushed the Reds' home and tried to beat them down.















It was sad really. Blue was hungry for blood, and bloodshed was the inevitable result.














Seeing as they could not get through their spawn defenses, Blue used the knowledge amassed from their experimenting from before to build a sturdy perimeter defense.


























Dancing and laughing together before, now only at the expense of the Reds. It was a dark day for virtual humanity.















Of course, the Reds put up a fight and to their credit, did not go down that easily.






































Evidently, a sturdy defense it was, in all its meaning.














Alas, all that awaited the Reds was death.














There were those who stood up against this anarchy, with valiance and courage. But the sheer amount of the opposition was overwhelming the Reds.



















































Their cries of revolution still ring the blood stained atmosphere in the guise of echoes as they searched for the illusion that is freedom.














As the fight in them waned, with their last bits of effort they fought back against the Blues seemingly indestructible arsenal of weapons with stealth.














In a flash of blood red and exploding orange, the Blues and Reds destroyed each other completely, thus ending what started out as great potential for an advanced form of civilization.














For now, it will be etched in our memories, as a night of insurmountable emotions that will be recorded in history.
