Counter-Strike I started playing Counter-Strike in May 2003 in CS 1.5. The only reason I started playing was because I fell into a ton of free time once school ended last year, and it was the game that everyone was playing. Needless to say, I was horrrible compared to everyone else, since they already had 1-3 years experience playing. I caught on pretty quick though. After 1 month of being horrible, I started scrimming with TheZealots CS team. We would play for about 5-6 hours every night. Needless to say we all became pretty decent and decided to join a league. We signed up for CAL-Open season 9, and started off our CS "careers" as Zealous. It was really different to play in Matches, where there is actually something on the line. I was pretty nervous through most of the matches in the first season, especially rounds where I was the only one left. We made some mid-season roster changes, and finished the season 4-4. It wasn't too bad for our first time together. Cal-O season 10 came a few months
after the end of season 9. We decided to change the name from Zealous to
Failure, because there was a prior team named Zealous, and we got sick of
people asking if we were them. We ended season 9 5-3. It was an
improvement. We lost 2 matches on maps we never really practiced, and then
lost one to a team that was caught cheating in the playoffs. With that
considerd, we could have done a lot better.
