Hello Everyone!
I just wanted to give everybody a heads up before the summer breaks commence.

- The server improvements are almost complete, so get in there and see what we have done for you!

- We have had a great deal of success with server fillers lately, so I urge everyone, when they have a bit of free time and see the server empty, to hook up with a few friends and/or SSQ members and start filling the server!

- A great big influx of new members to SSQ is underway. If you have any Steam friends who you think are made of the stuff we like to see in here, be sure to offer them an invite. (Just be sure to tell SirFur, he is the recruitment officer after all. ;)

- On monday the 29th, I will be going on a five d ... Read more »

Since the Sniper vs. Spy-update there has been a lot of traffic going on at our server - and there still is!

Here's some statistical data, fetched from game-monitor.com:



As you can see, since about roughly a week there have constantly been people on the server, people who actually play! (not those stupid idlers farming weapons) Personally, I think this is amazing, finally it's not quiet anymore and I think Steve feels pretty glad now, because all his effort finally pays off not only for us SSQ members, there are many other ...

Hey everyone.

I am afraid I've got bad news: I joined the newest Steam client beta, and since then I have been unable to connect to Steam. I am hoping Steam Support will get their fingers out, but if not, I hope you guys will be able to handle the evening's event yourselves.

Play on!

Hey guys,

It is a great to see that the forums are starting to liven up again and wonderful to see a whole host of new members registering at the site. Welcome to you all! I will yet again remind you all to urge your friends and perhaps even family to register up here as we intend to establish a long-life community here that is home to all your online social needs! 

In consequence, I have decided to make a few changes to the forums - some of which are in progress. Firstly we now have a new forum section - the Chatter Room, which takes place of the General form we had before. I know you guys love to chatter so get on with it in there! In addition, a place for posting your screens ... Read more »

So we just finished our 2nd Friendly War ever against d:R^ and I'm not gonna spread the news in a roundabout way:

We lost with one tiny wee cap-point.

CTF_Turbine: I have to admit, I never played this map properly before today. And I think a few others were new to it as well. It was hard to break the enemy's defense, they were very well organized, we had problems to defend our intel, just because we had no real tactic on this map. Eventually ssq | Galvatron made it through and saved us one cap in the first round.

PL_Goldrush: We were on defense for the first round and due to lack of experience and formost because of connection issues we honestly got steam ... Read more »

During our spontaneous friendly 4v4 Arena match against d:R^ yesterday evening we played on Arena_Well and Arena_Lumbaryard. The atmosphere was good and spirits were high! However, in the first game on Well we got stamped on by d:R^ and ended up losing quite badly 7:15.

My head had dipped a bit - but whahay, next game we bounced back to show some of that fighting spirit we squirrels all have and showed them what we're really about! The second game started really well, and some excellent teamwork from fraggdya and ssq | Simeon won us the day. We won the second map 10:4, and what a good feeling that was! :) In the end we came out not doing too badly and getting ourselves a DRAW :).

We play them a ... Read more »
