I just saw on Redwood's that in Paul Steed's .plan that they have left


out melee weapons for Quake2...I'm flabbergasted!!!!



"- no melee weapon was made because we wanted to piss people off,


although the mission pack may have such a weapon if we get


enough bitching about the lack of that feature"



LETS BITCH NOW! hehehe...I've started an official petition to submit to


idsoftware, so if you're a sword/axe/cucumber killer or whatever, then


email me imediately at the address below, so that your name can be added


to this list!!



The information I'm looking for is as follows:



Name (Quake or Real Life)


Email (optional)


Suggested Melee Weapon (optional)



I will gather the votes and post them (unless you specify otherwise) at


my Quake Site at http://users.dwx.com/~stone/



YOUR OPINION COUNTS!!
