#follow.et : Farewell to ET

Disclaimer : If you don't give a shit about #follow.et you can stop reading here and straightly have a look @ the hot chick I posted. As you certainly noticed I haven't written a journal for a month or so. I'd appreciate if flamers can keep their hands away for this journal but my expectations aren't so high since we all know, it's Crossfire.

After 3 magnificent years, I (Colonel LeFrancis) decided to call it a day...
Here's the story of #follow.et for the ones who are new to this e-world or never paid attention to this awesome european team and community.

After several years of jaymod (hi to sNr servers) and ETpro 2.55, two french players TouZe and I decided to create a team. Since we couldn't stand other frenchs' behaviour and we were too low to be recruited anywhere we decided to go on our own. We always wanted a "serious" team with cool & clean players. Even if it wasn't easy we managed to make it real.

For the ones who always wondered why "The Following Day" or "#follow.et" here's the silly but real explanation. After few hours of gaming TouZe and me wanted to find a name for our new team before sleeping. We hadnt found any so we decided to go to bed. He told me "See you tomorrow" and I replied "See you the following day LoL... OMG WHAT DID I JUST SAY" True story and then we simply made it shorter by calling this team "follow.et"

Our first competition was ESL winter league, this is also our last. We had many different lineups and also a lot of players came here before becoming legends. #follow.et was, is and will stay a clean team. I would thank all of you guys who made #follow.et a great community and a bunch of e-friends.

Here's a non-exhaustive list :

True soldiers category (here for a long time, never backstabbed) :

Woony (Skillboosting while drunken)
Rafek (Official quote provider, wise man)
spng (Taught me the art of spamming CF like a bo double s)

The one who played with us 1 or 2 games :

Wizrox

The ones who never played for us but gently supported us :
Rezta & zenix (Thanks for your great servers & irc support)

The Following Day is more than a team it's an e-family or a nerd community where we play baserace until 3 am or argue about triviabot until 5 am. That's why I'd like to thank all our idlers. The list is too long but I thank each of you.

I now let Woony (new leader), rafek (Coach & veteran soldier) and punkyy (manager) make a decision about #follow.et's future. Even if there's no more team, #follow.et will still be alive on irc and each of us will keep in his mind the great times we spent playing computer games and joking around.

If this team stayed for so long it's thank to the great atmosphere we managed to get. It's probably our secret and encourage you guys to "follow" the same path with your team.

Since I want you to close this journal with a smile on your face here are some stuffs for you :

Woony drunken
Woony Hendrix performing a live show

I had the following to say :

See you @ lan

Don't be sad my e-friends. I'll still be around on irc & I'll keep checking my inbox. Maybe we'll meet at lan or more possibly @ LoL :{D.

Thanks for reading, I hope you somehow felt concerned
