I started playing counter-strike in 2000 with beta 6.7 and then continued to play through the official release and until 1.5 when I stopped for a few months and then I started playing again on 1.6's release.

Spent some time around 2002-2003 building maps in Worldcraft.But then gave up on that to play more.

Played around 17 competitions, only ever won small ones while captaining.Never in excess amount of R250 per team,lol.But fun none the less.

I stopped playing Counter-Strike when Source was released, and now 4 years later have decided to give it a crack again,granted I am now bit older, which is fail.
