Meh, I can't remember how I stumbled upon it, it was years ago...I only started to coming here often a few months back though. I guess a friend introduced me to the site, or something. it may have been MrBen, but I'm not so sure.. [addsig]

I think it must of been when I did a few reviews for 'biohazard' maps on PHL, and Snarkpit was like our 'rival' of some kind. If I was bored enough I would look it up in IM logs, but umm.. not today. Then there was something about PHP or some nonsense like that

/me takes opertunity to thank Lep for uber kudos on 'about' page... I don't think I deserve it though!

Did you consider us to be your rivals?

I know I regarded you as enemies, and now stand triumphantly on your decaying corpse

Read the about page like in Jeff's example, been here and browsing generally since the second inception... loyally been turning out reviews at a slow pace and pouncing on would be forum spammers. All fun

Jeff; aaah yes the PHL days, angry emails, slandering and general inter-site friendliness Those were the days..

I blame two people for me coming to and staying at the Snarkpit: Orph and Mikee. It's always a good sign when your first post on Snarkpit v3 starts a 150 reply flamewar.

I think it was originally from looking up editing tutorials and things, though I sort of joined the place when I was looking to pimp my map Elixir when it was getting released. People liked the map but told me to post beta versions so they could give useful feedback...so I did [addsig]

I found this place way back when I first started mapping. That was years ago. I visited it on and off for like two years untill I had gone through all the available tutorials, and finaly had a map I thought was good enough for public comment (Nuclear_Research). [addsig]

To be honest I cant quite remember, I think I also stumbled upon it or maybe a friend told me to pimp a map here.. I really can't quite remember.. Maybe it was the contest.. Who knows, I dont remember when I first got here, But I have been here for quite sometime now.

GO LEP!

Someone posted a link on a forum I regurarly visited, and I just clicked away ... no regrets

*off-topic*: Crackerjack, that is one of the best Pink Floyd albums you have there in your ava .. "Animals" is good too ... but nothing really beats "Wish You were here" ... good choice

Jeff, we were once mentioned for some OP4 news in PC Gamer, but otherwise yeah I think you're right about the prime-time TV advertisements- we're lacking visitors from South America and Inner Mongolia, to be honest.

I found it because of the excellent leak-finding tutorial, and more or less stayed after a while.

can't honestly recall, but to venture a plausible guess.. i drifted this way, after it was apparent PFL was going belly up..

been here much to long to truly recall, but thats about as good a reason as any.

much to leps chagrin, i am betting he wishes sometimes, PFL was still my main haunt.

I was looking for some terrain tutorials one night and stumbled upon Reno's "Triangle Terrain" series

Great tutorials by the way, man. They've been helpful

Hmmm,I've just thought of something, I made this poll yet I haven't even said how I got here, about a year ago when the good old IGO cybercafe was open a friend of mine told me that you can make maps for counter strike, when he was looking for some n00b tutorials he said this site has some great ones,[that was version 3]. and in this version I signed up [addsig]

I signed on december '03... I'd seen many links to snarkpit around, thought I'd go there and check it out.

Best forums I've seen on a HL editing site, ever.
