Quake-related Information
Your nickname (story behind it)?
BogoJoker: A long time ago my dad was showing me multiplayer on doom. He gave me the name Joker and put me up against other players. I destroyed them. My dad thought I was pretty good and let me play it more often. The name "joker" stuck. Time goes on and Quake comes out. I was invited in a clan "bogo". Hence Bogo Joker. The clan died before ever making a map but this was at the time where I just learned how to make cool names with colors and whatever so I kept the name. Lately I have played wiht my initals but the name BogoJoker I use for most games and most online things.

Your Quake config (key bindings, etc.)?
Arrows, Mouse1=attack; Mouse2=nothing Delete=jump... Sorta akward but I like it.
| |
Size of Quake directory on your HD?
Probably more QW stuff. I donno really. I keep cutting down what I dont need so it stays low. 400meg?
| |
Your computer (processor/videocard etc.)?
And i'm telling you this so you can laugh at me? lol no need to tell you really :)
| |
Quake settings (resolution, version etc.)?
Not on the right comp to tell you. I think i just use qlquake.exe for speed running.
| |
First contact to speedrunning (when, how etc.)?
I have reviewed a lot of profiles the last couple days expecting to get this in my e-mail. This is often the most exciting part to read about (other than your quake nick and its history). I have always loved tricks. In fact I have done speed demos through trick maps in quakeworld and have unbeliveable tricks. I hold the world record in map trick1 (aka trick) and close to it in ztricks. I thought why not try my luck at Quake Done Quick which I had heard about for the longest time and always wanted to get into. Well I did. Now I have seen only a few of the massive amounts of demos and skill that has been compiled on this site and I have got to say you guys are truely amazing.
| |
First speedrunning demo?
Technically: fire_110 BUT the next morning less than 24 hours (actually less than 12) i got e4m6_245
| |
Favorite speedrunning demo(s) from yourself
(the one(s) that you're most proud of)?
Hell I only got a record the other day. But getting an ID record sure is cool. e4m6_245. But I gotta say that dmc3_030 is a fun demo too.
| |
Favorite speedrunning demo(s) from others?
You know it is SO hard to answer these questions from now on... I think every id demo I see i'm almost always blown away.
| |
Favorite player (overall/runs/100%/marathon/coop)?
You kidding??? Stub for his insane 100%s, Kay for his speedy bunnies, I can't list so many. I know one player holds almost all marathons for rogue and martin i think has a ton for ID. I dont know your names well enough to answer this.
| |
Favorite trick in a demo?
The one where you do that secret command... +attack thats it. And the monster blows up!!! But really i just saw e1m4_019 by Ilkka the other day and that was a COOL trick. dmc2_104 has a nice move that was so fun to perform I did it myself in the dmc2_100. ut man do the moves I see keep surpising me.
| |
Favorite QdQ release?
I cant tell you because i've only see QdQ. The orignal. No others :(
| |
Favorite original Quake map?
dm6. But if it is to be for speed running: e1m1
| |
Favorite custom map?
aerowalk and ztndm3 (i'm a qw player)
| |
Most annoying monster/map?
I see people writing ogres and scrags and i'm wondering if they have ever played quake. The freaking spawns. You cant tell me they havent ruined your runs before.
| |
Do you like Doom/Quake2/Q3A?
They are okay. I woulnd not play them too long but they were ok.
| |
What do you think of Quake now?
Multiplayer is almost dead in the USA. Speed running is actually getting more people. I might stick around here but I was doing incrediable at QW the recently. beating out some of americas TOP players.
