The Inception
In 2001 -[x]- was founded by -[x]-Master and -[x]-Ragnarock. The first new
recruit was myself, -[x]-Badman.
Soon after I had my brother, -[x]-Surge, join us. But we had a problem.
We had a tag, -[x]-, but no clan name. What was -[x]-? What did it mean?
The 4 of us voted and in the end -[x]-Surge's idea of the -[x]-TremeSoldiers
stuck. Thus -[x]-treme$oldiers was born and exists to this day.
The RTCW GoldRush |
Although -[x]- started out as a random team of pub nubs in vanilla RTCW
we didn't start to find our way until Banimod GoldRush arrived.
With this -[x]-Master and -[x]-Ragnarock, who were really young kids at
the time and didn't have the experience or the time to put into a solid
clan. They both dropped behind the scenes and left myself, -[x]-Badman,
to steer the clan in some sort of direction.
Shortly after i ran into a player by the name of Sneaky1. We hit it off and
became good friends. It also turns out he had past experience with pc
clans in comp. I asked him to help me lead -[x]- and he did so and we
put up our first ever website and server.
Our next goal was recruitment. In the 1st year of RTCW we easily hit
over 200 members on our roster. However it got hard to control a team
with so many people. We split the teams into halves to make it easier
to keep track and control. So there was now -[x]- and -[xs]- in what
caused nothing but e-drama in the end. The newer players on -[xs]-
felt they were the weaker team due to the core members being on the
original -[x]- team. This caused a split and 3 new clans were born from
former -[x]- and -[xs]- members. Over time these teams challenged
us over a dozen times only to be crushed in the end.
The Goldrush Era held many players and teams we held dear to our
memories. Such teams as {FSB}, [QC], +(SOL)+, , Mr., >Ch<,
and . All of these teams fell to the mighty -[x]- clan. Through it all
only 2 team's managed to defeat us. They were clan {FuN}, a Euro
team. The second was Team +(SOL)+ who finally beat us after many
matches. With many decent teams only a few players from each team
stuck out and remained with -[x]- either through rivalries or as
teammates. To list a few... {QC]Vindictive, [QC]Imbroglio,
+(SOL)+Banger, +(SOL)+Lethal, Ray, Deer, Fatal1ty,
Mr,Redhair and Mr.Vengesim.
Through this entire Goldrush Era only 4 Members survived with -[x]-
them being -[x]-Doit2it, -[x]-ShadeWolf, -[x]-JediKnight, and
-[x]-Sneaky1. -[x]- Finished with a 52-2 record in Goldrush. |
The Wonder years.. RTCW Banimod |
We soon got bored with Goldrush and found Banimod OBJ to be our new
drug of choice in RTCW.
-[x]- started a massive take over of dominance on the Budget Internet
Server's. Through this we picked up many great new members and rivals.
We were joined by the faces of -[x]-Dead Eye, -[x]-Skippy,
-[x]-GoatCheese, -[x]-Madness, -[x]-Forsaken, -[x]-Vindictive,
-[x]-Imbroglio and a ton of others who didn't last.
-[x]- took to comp here smoothly with a massive record of 64 wins and
5 loses. The clan and players we played against once again affected the
future of -[x]-. The likes of clans [ZERO}, , Team Fett, and Team
Bani being the only teams to defeat us in this Era.
-[x]- Went on to win the 1st Banimod Season as Banimod
Season 1 Champs.
Eventually we ran into 2 new teams. Shrub teams by the names of [crr],
Clan Rocket Rules, and _NR_. [crr] being lead by [crr]Insomnia, who
later became bwg.Som, and [crr]Triumph, AKA bwg.Hardcore, and
_NR_ being represented by _NR_Leet1. We went on to kick both teams
asses. But also invited us to come play in there world on Shrub.
Myself and -[x]-Surge took their advice and did so.
|
The Golden Age: RTCW ShrubMod |
Myself and -[x]-Surge soon stumbled upon a OLTL Shrub Server called
Smokeherb. With this we both found out quickly that Shrub and OSP Mod
players were on a MUCH MUCH higher skill level then Banimod players.
We both got addicted to OLTL and played with the likes of Pronstar,
Megatron, Shrub, Eyez, Pfunk, Surgeon, Liquid and a few others.
We loved it.
Soon after -[x]- was challenged to there 1st ever Shrub scrim against
team {Sck}. The leader and creator of Shrubmod {Sck}Shrub and his
teammates {Sck}Eyes, {Sck}Relentless, {Sck}Surgeon and 2 others.
We played on Mp_Trenchtoast and they kicked our asses but encouraged
us to start to play and compete in Shrub after they gave us a few pointers.
Alas we began our decent into TWL and Shrub and -[x]-Sneaky1 dropped
from sight. Our 1st match ever was against clan lead by Fragman,
Hexgirl, Flashback, Ranger, Atom!c and Grail.
We played them on MP_Marketgarden and easily got skulled.
Our next goal was to defeat on Mp_Marketgarden as a stepping stone.
We scrimmed long and hard got our chance and defeated them on
Market Garden. 1st step taken.
-[x]- Clans second match would lead us to a destined rival that would pit
us in classic matches over the life of the RTCW competition scene.
That team's name was ASF. American Special Forces. The very first time
we played [ASF] was on Mp_Breakout. The team of [ASF] was lead by
Asf.AngelOfDeath, Asf.DMZ, Asf.Leet1, Asf.IncludePainH, Asf.ahighone,
Asf.Zero, and Asf.dmz, layed down a giant ass whupping on us with
perfect airstrike placement and superior gunmanship.
ASF beat us down badly 2 more times till we were finally able to pull a
win on them. We had many CLASSIC matches with our then rival's of
ASF. One match lasting over 8 Hours on MP_Snowfun that we won by
1 mere round. Another classic 4 1/2 Hour match on Depot that we also
pulled a Win on by 1 round. ASF claimed being tired.
With the Shrub Era we picked up some great players and played
some tough teams. Just to name a few. BWG, Asf, {UBD}, -ss-, [DSB],
{TBA} and N4L. Some Former -[x]- Members: -[x]-GhostFace,
-[x]-G1zmo, -[x]-Playmaker, -[x]-Tooz, -[x]-Uberfreak,
-[x]-Aftermath, -[x]-Umeremortals, -[x]-Smok3y and -[x]-Morr1s.
-[x]- Played around 13 Seasons of Shrub and OSP Mod for RTCW. |
RTCW Shrub Season Rundowns |
Season 1: Eliminated by ASF in Semifinals.
Season 2: Eliminated by BWG (Got screwed).
Story: 1 of our member's -[x]-Hydroz left to awnser his door and
didn't come back for the alotted 15 min break period, so Myself,
-[x]-Forsaken,-[x]-Tooz,-[x]-Uberfreak and -[x]-Aftermatch were
forced to play a man down... at this time we were up 2-0 on them and
about to finish it. Our 6th never came back and it coast us the match.
We put up a great effort against Bwg's team of Bwg.Som, Bwg.F@B,
Bwg.Hardcore, Bwg.Warlord, Bwg.Bassman and Bwg.Mnt.Dew.
Funny Side Note: Bwg.F@b and Bwg.Mnt.Dew were both busted for
hacks shortly afterward soon followed by Bwg,Som and
Bwg.Bl@ckmagick being caught. Bwg. went to the finals to lose to
N4L (who -[x]- are 5-0 undefeated against).
Season 3: Da Champs Are here! =The Rewind Fiasco=
Story: Semi-Finals were here for season 3. We didnt scrim or
prepare for a very strong -ss- clan. TWL was using Wolftv to
broadcast the Semi and Finals matches. But made a big mistake
and streamed it live in real time possibly giving either team an
advantage of cheating. (Example) a member benched on a team
in the match watching WolfTv could tell enemy positions on their
voice comms.
-ss- ended up beating us badly 3-0. N4L Defeated Asf in a close match.
However both matches were to be replayed do to there being no slow
down on the WolfTv broadcast in case a team cheated. I'm pretty sure
none of the 4 teams did so. This gave us a chance to prepare for -ss-
this time around.. we ended up scrimming =TAO= 10 vs 6 for a few
hours and it helped us out greatly ( A Special Thanks to =TAO= ).
So second time around we defeated -SS- 3-2 in a close match ending
with a clutch nade on R1 by -[x]-Surge. ASF ended up beating N4L
in a classic match as well.
As faith would have it... we come to play our Rivals ASF on Mp-Assault,
Teams: -[x]-
-[x]-Badman
-[x]-Forsaken
-[x]-Uber
-[x]-Tooz
-[x]-Aftermath
-[x]-Skippy
-[x]-Surge
vs
Teams: Asf.
Asf.Busdriver
Asf.Bassman
Asf.Zero
Asf.Streetz
Asf.Warlord
Asf.Leet1
Asf.High1 (Had Connection Issues).
We ended up beating our Rivals to become the Champ's.
Season 4: Eliminated By -ss-
Season 5: Eliminated by -ss-
Season 6: Eliminated by C1
Season 7: Team i <3Lamp vs -ss-. Lost to -ss- in the Finals. |
The Ganja Palace... |
With the Shrub/Osp Era came a pub server by the name of Teh Ganja Palace.
An XStab OLTL Shrub server created by High1 and a custom version of
xstab created by Som and Bassman of BwG fame. It was the bee's knee's.
A server where only the best shrub players would play and hold weekly
tournaments for Fun and Server Credits.
Nothing could compare to how fun this Era of RTCW was. It was the
Golden Age. Soon after some of the best players from the server formed
team, I<3Lamp, to compete in Shrub Season 7. The team consisted of
Badman, High1, Busdriver, PillowBitter, Leet1, Forsaken, Juventes,
Daywalker, and Forsaken. We made the finals but lost to a more
prepared -ss- team.
The -[x]-TremeSoldiers Finished RTCW in TWL with the following Records.
#1 Rung on RTCW Shrub 6v6 StopWatch #25 Times.
#1 Rung on RTCW OSP 5v5 StopWatch #1 Times.
#1 Rung on RTCW Banimod 2002 StopWatch #6 Times. 64-5.
#1 Rung on ET StopWatch 6v6 #1 Times.
#1 Rung on ET StopWatch 3v3 #6 Times.
Season 1 Banimod Objective Champion's 2002 RTCW.
Season 3 Shrub League 6v6 StopWatch Champion's RTCW.
The End oF RTCW Came... and went. |
The MMO Era |
Myself and -[x]-Surge began to play a MMO called GuildWars
After a few months we ran into some Old Regulars from the Old Ganja
Palace server while playing.....High1, Busdriver, Leet1 a few others..
and they had some new faces with them, CodeRed, RadioClash, Tita
and a few others that they found pubbing Counter Strike Source on the
[OTC] servers... so they kidnapped them and brought them over to -[x]-.
So we once again joined under the same Banner of {Gp}. A few years in
some [Gp] Players tired of GuildWars and became inactive. So i took my
ball and went home and made another Banner of Legend [Lgnd] Guild.
All of the active players followed, soon after by some of the inactives
coming back to play.
Then Factions Expansion came out For Guild Wars, We join under the
[DaP] Alliance and shortly after joined forces. [DaP] Lead by Piggles
from the UK and Kik from the USA. We had some fun years with them
for sure.
Recently they all became inactive so we moved and now play under the
-[x]- Tag for Guild Wars as well as FPS. Some of us have Achieved the
highest Title u can get in GuildWars...
The Title of God Walking Among Mere Mortals.
Those players who have obtained this title in -[x]-.
[Xse] CodeRed
[Xse] XBadman
[Xse] X Surge
[Xse] Hip Death Goddess
[Xse] Piggle
[Xse] Kik
[Xse] Peas
We Still play GuildWars to this very day and are eagerly awaiting
GuildWars 2 to hit the shelves. |
ET Quake Wars.... Floppity McFlop |
We played and competed in the Beta but the overall game was a failure
so it was a no go/flop even though we did compete a bit until everyone
was pretty much in agreement that tank camping and vehicles as a
whole in this game was pretty gay. |
Call Of Duty 4 Awakens the Beast! Era Of Ass Whupp! |
So COD4 came out, -[x]- Member's and Ganja Regs
began to pub and enjoy the game alot.
I Asked High1 if he wanted to join up and lets put up a team..nothing
serious just for fun.. Turns out we started to kick everyone's ass.
Again we began our TWL Climb in leagues and Ladders by leaps and
bounds. We started by Taking the #1 Rung spot in HC HQ against DPG.
We also went 4-4 in Season 1, not bad for a team who didn't scrim.
Season 2 COD4:
Season 2 was here and for some odd reason some old faces started
to show up outta nowhere...
Ulua and M@rcus from RTCW joined us and a New comer by the
name of Grom.
And for some Odd Reason.. we all put on out try pants and began
to scrim like it was breathing oxygen. Because of this we were an
unknown team in the COD community that was laying everyone to
waste.
-[x]- Finished Season 2 8-0 Undefeated and Won the
Season 2 Championship.
We played every Season to date.. but the longer we went we lost key
players/vets who lost interest in the game... so farther down the hill
our team slid. Our core players got so bored with it most of them
started to play other random games.
-[x]-TremeSoldiers Records While playing COD4:
#1 Rung on COD4 5v5 hc SnD #6 Times.
#1 Rung on COD4 6v6 hc Sabotage #2 Times.
#1 Rung on COD4 6v6 hc HQ #1 Times.
Season 2 COD4 HC SND League Champion's. 8-0.
Retired COD4 HC Ladder 60-48.
End Era. |
RTCW 2 Flops! A whole community left heart broken and homeless.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Era!! New Life! |
We have started our Journey into BC:2. its been a tough
run so far... it's tough to get 8v8 going every night since all of us work
and have lives. ATM we are no premire team in BC:2 but we still play
and enjoy it anyway. We will stay with BC:2 untill the next best thing
comes along...
ATM were looking at the new MOH and COD:Black Op's Hopefully both
aren't let downs like COD:MW2.
Also a bunch of us have picked up StarCraft2 and are enjoying it a lot!
At this point in -[x]- we are looking for our next FPS we can put an
effort into and will be trying new games as they come out to see if
they fit us  . |
