Application submitted on 5/21/08... I am a youngster by eGO standards, but I have absolutely become a true eGO (well... eG for now). I first started playing on the Convoy server when The Machinist and another eGO first told me about eGO. The Machinist referred me to the website... I thought about it for a day... and decided to apply.
Four months later... eGO has changed me.
1. My homepage is now, in fact, eGO.
2. eGO (and the gaming) has caused me to spend several hundred dollars on new gear (Logitech G15, MS Sidewinder, Senheiser HD280, Gigabyte 3870, etc.) that I would have never bought otherwise (the last game I played before TF2 was Doom 2... I wasn't much of a gamer... until now).
3. I tell my wife stories about eGO... if she ever gets free of school work, I already have a Steam account for her and maybe she will join us too.
4. My brother-in-law and I share TF2 stories every weekend.
5. I look forward to coming home from work to see who is on.
6. Few things make me smile like epic battles with other eGO members... King and I have quite a feud on Black Mesa... something about his fetish to burn demomen...
This organization is great... and life changing... no doubt about it.
