Nocturne Recruit Toomy

Posted by ryano at 00:56 5/4/2002.

In a shock move, Toomy (ex-ui, current UK team) has left ecore for Nocturne. I caught up with Toomy and managed to get the lowdown on his reasons for moving.
Deean: So Toomy, whats your reasons behind leaving ecore?

Toomy: There were a few problems within ecore, members leaving and difficulty with team play. Nocturne, are an established well organised clan, when they offered me a place I was glad to take it.

This only adds to an already formidable Nocturne line-up and I'm sure (if allowed) that he will make an impact on their Eurocup performances.

It doesnt work like that Lyo, they try to make you give the headphones back!

Toomy's a quality player, gl noc.

I think all the current moving of players is quite good for the scene, the top teams are getting stronger, which should hopefully mean an increase in their euro standing.
Sadly EC5 turned out to be a disaster for the UK teams + dNC :( [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Never mind; early teething problems could have been sorted, I guess some people have more will to carry on than others. Good to see people have a valid reason for leaving something which could have been good. I guees the pull of the noc t-shirt (with its 300 sponsors plastered all over it) was to great a temptation for Toomy. This is not the end of eCore despite rumours we will recover and find some more hard wearing and loyal players this time me thinks :). [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

My prediction of Deeans scoop

Lil joins I-ES seeing as he played for them at i10, I-ES trade the 2 dutch to innominis for the UK boys Purple and Stoppa .. but Stoppa hax so they get rid of them.

DK joins noc :oP

FELLA gets broadband and joins NiP the end ... some of that was made up ... guess which bit :o) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Why does everyone seem to think that he's in it for the headphones?

Noc have an established team that just got better with Toomy joining, i gave him the lowdown of what is involved, and his words to me were; 'I dont wanna be playing loser clans'

Or summit like that anyway, so basically, What someone said before was true, he lacked ambition.

I think losing i10 was a shock to all 5 of GHOSTBUSTERS, which included me and toomy, but this was just a small taste i feel of what he thinks he can, and will gain, by joining noc.

As soon as we get our tactics and teamplay sorted with Toomy, i think he can help us regain our stature of the best in the UK, ahead of Inf-eS...as i dont believe they are as strong as many people believe they are, after what I saw at i10, but thats just me.

Were glad to have Toomy on the team, and i believe hes possibly one of the best Players, maybe the best LAN player in the UK.

Thx gg nn.

I think this makes one clan much much stronger.
However you now have two very good clans, one half foreign.
Then you have 2 clans that both have the potential to become very good with each, but without will stay an above average level clan.

I think you guys should just start over with a fancy new clan stealing the top players from all the clans like ireland did :) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Why do you all think i'm in it for the headphones? The pair i have at the moment are about 100 times better, I just didn't want all the hassle of playing in a clan starting out again, i was in ui when it started and i didn't really enjoy it, i think i'm doing what is best for me... all i want to do is play cs against the best people i can, is there anything wrong with that?

claiming your current headphones are '100 times better' isn't gonna go down very well with plantronics, they'll have you out of the clan in no time! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
