Actually this hasnt been proven. 4D lost to Postal by 40 frags, and hasnt
played as a team in quite a while.

Yay. A good home page does not a good clan make. Clan Legends' home page
is not as impressive as Dark Requiem's, but I bet LGD could kick DR's ass.

Woo hoo. I was in ZyX and FoG and QwErTy..

If you can tback up with clan names that you are useless.

Why yes they have. They regularly wipe the floor with ppl on Qworld. You
see, our clans arent astonishingally active (i.e we dont go to Qcon or E3)
Because Schoolwork gets in the way. Note, we do our schoolwork and get
good grades, Because Quake is only a hobby, not a lifestyle.  I'm sure if
we wanted to be well known, we'd be well known. We just dont have all the
time in the world to waste on webpages and getting id software guys to
play for us. We dont have high paying jobs to get good computers. We arent
high school people who couldn't give a shit. We're college student who
play quake as a hobby. (personally, I'm glad that we're unknown. I'd hate
to see all the mail that the Rangers get.)
