SAMP CUP III

BACK TO THE F[U]T[U]RE

Yes, that's two [U] clan tags for the price of one. For the Winter Holidays, some of the United Army soldiers thought it would be fun to explore the late 0.2X version of SAMP. Try it out yourselves, if you never had the chance, and tell us what you think about the gameplay compared to the actual 0.3 versions.

For a month, and more if needed, you'll find old school combat on this server 109.73.163.18:4100. Perhaps join in the Duellists 0.2 tournament if interested (http://sampduellists.u-clan.com)

Don't forget the existing popular tournaments still running on http://sampduellists.u-clan.com http://sampcup.u-clan.com and http://sampworldcup.u-clan.com

Enjoy the end of the year amongst friends and family. Long live the United!

SAMP WORLD CUP I

The SAMP World Cup has come to end at last! England beat Turkey in a final without hiccups (apart from usual complaining that players from each team are used to) and without the problems TUR was having with their net (high ping peeks and time outs).

Congratulations to all nations who fought fairly and showed a good respectable spirit in game. Good luck next season. The upcoming World Cup will begin as soon as nations are ready.

DUELLISTS CHAMPIONSHIP 2010 v.3

"As practised from the 11th to 20th centuries in Western societies, a duel is an engagement in combat between two individuals, with matched weapons in accordance with their combat doctrines."

"The Romantic depiction of mediaeval duels was based on either a pretext of defence of honour, usually accompanied by a trusted representative (who might themselves fight, often in contravention of the duelling conventions), or as a matter of challenge of the champion which developed out of the desire of one party (the challenger) to redress a perceived insult to his sovereign's honour. The goal of the honourable duel was often not so much to kill the opponent as to gain "satisfaction", that is, to restore one's honour by demonstrating a willingness to risk one's life for it."

Yes, after a few attempts by others to copy the Duellist Championship, here we present the original one in its 2010 version. To gain "satisfaction", we ask of you to sign up here.

Duellists this year can sign up for free, or "go pro" and pay an entry fee via paypal of 2$ to u-09@live.com (PAYPAL). If you do so, Duellists who finish in top three will win prize cash divided from all entry fees. Get paid for being good at this game. Be a professional!

Enjoy yourselves, and don't forget to upload your videos of each duel here.

Happy Xmas to [U]

A few more weeks yet before Xmas and we have already begun unwrapping a few gifts. Gold Memberships for [U] soldiers in GTA T! We hope you enjoy the new Army style and fully equipped weapon packages that come with it. Lets begin the rampage, even before the roast turkey is devoured.

Merry Xmas to All! Enjoy the moments spent with your family and friends.

Recent Wars Update : [U] beats [NoV] 7 - 0

Far from being a way to get back at anyone in particular or make a point, [U] went to war vs the [NoV] clan recently and beat them 7-0. It is no secret some of us used to part of this clan over a year ago, and we salute [NoV]Frutty's determination to do clan wars now.

This first 4 vs 4 war between the [U] Army and Novocaine was a good one with ZERO space for pointless time wasting arguments. Be this due to new blood in the clan, or simplty new policies, all we can say is we appreciated the fairplay and conduct. [U] may have had the advantage of being prepared for a war with no c bug (despite the occasional faux pas by both clans humourously filmed by [___]WhiteTiger), and NoV was perhaps badly organized, lacking members and holding up the match for a long time, but in the end all went well. Flawless victory. What shall be of the next war? Looking forward to seeing it.

After beating the clan [BB] 5 - 2 in an away match, fortune played us a different tune in the home one where they beat us 3 - 4. Quite evenly balanced so far it would seem in our mutual results. Weird how both clans should lose to such a clan as [LAC] who dare not rematch either since they no longer resort to using cheats. Since this was found out, no result from LAC will be counted.

Round of applause to [BB] for playing a spotless game in the "flame" department and for sharing two last professional* matches with us, although neither clans got paid. Also after much hard work from the 062, 073, D4z family, who showed up at this war with General 06, promotions were deservedly given out recently.

ZERONINE/ZEROSIX

Monthly Clan Tournament

After a brief delay, the Monthly Clan Duellists Tournament reopens its gates! Find your opponent in this ladder board, and climb to the top with the classic Duellist Championship rules. This will be a pertinent transition towards the Duellist Server that will be released hopefully before this event comes to an end.

Good luck to all, and show us what you're made of!

[U] vs [Ask] 5 - 4

After a disastrous few wars vs Ask in the past, we decided we would never do another against this clan (arguing, complaining, the lot). Yet, recently, with the help of a new Ask member, we were able to plan a neutral war on an NB server that would apparently be promising.

Despite Ask not knowing what GMT 0 was, we finally got the war started an hour later without too many time outs, or complaining. Of course you can't prevent some from being rude/disrespectful when that's part of their nature, but in general things went just about ok with a few /clearchats to prevent the inevitable Ask flaming.
3-3 at the end of the attack and defense rounds. Good match where Ask were leading 3 - 2 before [U] made a swift comeback. The TDM era was the beginning of the flamefest. Avoiding details, and the good refereeing by [NB]Eminich, we actually ended up doing 3 TDMs. [U] won the last two, while [Ask] won the first with the [U] clan playing 4 vs 5 (06 trapped in 99's pyramid object addon to a TDM zone: ironic for an Egyptian). Disappointing to see the match wasn't completed free of childishness, though all is well that ends well.

[U] wins 5 - 4. GG [Ask]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO [U]S!!!

Since July 2008 ( perhaps a few dark months before that? ;) ), proud to be a part of the UNITED ARMY. One year old, officially. Grab your guns and lets celebrate!!

-U- ARMY UPDATES!

After a chaotic night of retrieving lost data from a tortured database, the clan finally followed 69's idea to switch themes. The U-ARMY theme is now installed and suits us fine.

The death of Spring and Summer closing in has brought new faces to the clan, and new ranking systems that we have updated with medals of merit that even non members can obtain. Clan members or non members have to get 20 points to request rank promotion. Check your level in the -U-RANK page.

The war page was also polished, and beneath the cobwebs, unfinished business was found with clans who haven't completed HOME and AWAY clanwars. These will be done soon, in June 2009. In the -U-WARS section, you can watch out for upcoming wars (with blinking stars), and catch up on various Championship and GTA T results.

If you wish to join the GTA T "United Clans Gang", post an application here. This can be done individually, or to sign your clan up for fusion within GTA T.

See you soon in game (SAMP / CALL OF DUTY 5 / GTA IV)
