kurtz aka juggernaut has always mastered to make my scores look bad. in my defence, he is one of the best worth gunners in A and i'm just a bloody newb. it's a shame he's actually a nice guy as well. i have a hard time finding something to claim this thread wasn't deserved - except for the fact that he was playing for that bloody cheater cartel called TLB. fortunately, i have been privileged to play with him for a few rounds. if he hadn't been so bloody quiet on the forums, he would have gotten this thread earlier, i'm sure.

excellent choice, gretchen.

Congrats Justin, you were an exceptional player and an even better guy. This is well deserved and it's a shame more people out there don't realize just how much so. I am happy to have served so many rounds with you over the years and maybe one of these days you can return here and grace us with your presence once again. If not I just hope I catch you on msn from time to time to see how you're doing. I promise I won't tell you how much you missed in Detroit and Windsor ;)

Congrats Kurtz, i remember playing with you in love rats one round and your junkies really did seem to make more money than mine :)

I dont know you at all well or what your capable of in the game, but if people like tim and eyez speak so highly of you then you must be a great player and a great personality.

Again, congratulations.(f)

Wow, honestly, this is an honour I never thought I would receive. Many thanks to those of you that nominated me, and thanks again for all the kind words. This definitely made my day :)

Buzzin: funny you should mention gunning A games ;)
Ridgeback: thank you, and thanks again for picking me for your team, even though we never got to see how that one ended.
tim: thanks for the kind words, although i don't know of anyone who could make your scores look bad
Eyez: thanks again for the nomination, and thanks for the support. I'm still around the forums from time to time, but, as per usual, I don't say too much. I already changed my mind about never playing again though, :$ , I had the urge to steal some junkies.
tca, steff, deadwood, DnD, Cushion : thank you all
momo: thanks, that's definitely a compliment coming from a worth gunner of your calibre

I guess I had better get to work on these questions.

Thanks again everyone, and thank you Vixen. I'm definitely honoured :D

*sigh*

Kurtz - you only got the thread because TLB developed a bot to award recognition threads to all their members one by one... :argh:
But in your case, there was actually some merit involved...

Congratulations - and keep churning out those monster scores mate :)

He also goes by the names Hopeless Case and Juggernaut but most of his big scores are under aliases. Doesn't say much in here but he's certainly one of the best players I've had the pleasure of playing with. Top notch worth gunner, top notch junkies and even though he doesn't use them often his machines aren't too shabby either. Basically he's as good as any player in the game and this thread is well deserved.

Congrats Justin, glad to hear you're playing again, give 'em hell mate :)

no shit sherlock :doh: being a cop suits you perfectly

I had the misfortune of picking Kurtz on my ASG team last year, and this noob let us all down by finishing last from the bottom :@

congrats! I also have had the pleasure of joining Kurtz in a few rounds. Even in the screwed up allstar game.(which i thought i had the last placed locked up but Kurtz came out of nowhere to take it from me;) ) thats why i voted his junkies make more money than mine. again congrats!!!(Y)

Congrats Kurtz. I don't think I've ever played with you, but I've seen you put up scores that more enough justifies this thread. Definitely well-deserved. :)

Flashman
5th February 2007, 09:33 PM
Wow - a quiet one wins a Reco Thread (y)

As far as I'm concerned, Justin is the best player I have witnessed. He is unpretentious, funny, helpful and plays a wicked strat that he cleverly tweaks throughout a game - one of the true Grand Masters. Well done mate :)

P.S. Hope things are working out better for you buddy, hope to see you back soon - too bad you didn't manage to get down to Windsor - next time eh?

The questions:

Dopewars Related Questions

What brought you to DW in the first place?

one of my friends told me about it at one point. He quit playing after a couple weeks, but i decided to keep playing.


What was your original name in the game?

I started playing as Juggernaut, but i never had much success using that name, so eventually i became more known as Kurtz.

“momo" How did you get the name? (I saw that before you edited it ;)

Oddly enough my ex-girlfriend used to call me momo sometimes. I believe it was a reference to a mentally handicapped guy that used to hang out where she worked. :$

The name kurtz is a reference to Colonel Walter E. Kurtz from apocalypse now. In my noobish days i went crazy one round and signed up 5 or 6 accounts in one game. Kurtz was the only one that didnt get deleted, and I started to post decent scores with that name so i stuck with it.


What was your best finish in the game?

A round 36
Lock, Step and Gone $131,637,497 The Legitimate Businessmen; 2nd overall (damn you a-d :P)

also, 3rd overall a few times:
A round 38
Santeria $165,398,527 The Legitimate Businessmen
A round 34
Tha Infamous Rat $150,231,711 (this one wasn't reposted after the forum was hacked, which really sucks)

B games:

round 35
Boatloads of Bootleg Sean John $175,723,362 Love Rats; 8th overall (I've had better, but I can't be bothered to look for them, plus I really like that handle.)

my personal favourite was

1 KuRtZ (#51) Metall Maniacs $600,601,097 (Also lost when the forum was hacked :( )


Do you prefer A, B, or C games?

Originally, I would have said B games, but after playing with TLB, and starting to gun more often, I'd have to say A games are the most fun for me.

What would be the perfect DW-Style Game for you?

One where machine strats were obselete

What cartel were you in when you started playing DW?

I played for random cartels my first couple rounds. My first regular A game cartel was one called Red Dead Revolver. My first regular B game cartel was likely Order of the Assasins

What cartels have you been a part of?

Mainly, The Legitimate Buisinessmen; Divine Supremacy; Love Rats; Order of the Assasins; Gunners for Hire; and for a little while Army of Sin, Freedom Fighters, and Daqqers during their rebuilding period (seems like they took off the round i decided to take a break :$ ), as well as a few others for 1 or 2 rounds.


What is your favorite cartel you were ever in?

The Legitimate Businessmen, not only were we successful, but it was an incredibly fun group of people to play with.

What was your least favorite cartel?

I guess it would be Resurrection because a couple cheaters made the whole cartel look bad

What new cartel are you keeping your eye on?

I'm not really watching that closely right now

Have you ever run a cartel, and if so which one(s)?

I wouldn't really say that I've ever run a cartel, although i did help out Si and Flashman with Love Rats for a while.

What is your favorite DW moment?

LIkely triple medalling with TLB, or winning the Allstar Game the second time around (although it wasnt really officially reset)


What is your least favorite DW moment?

probably one of two things:

1. the A13 playground where i dominated for the entire month until I was suicided for over $400 mil in worth and right out of first place.
or
2. the forum being hacked where i ended out losing 2 of my best scores that i posted above

Who are your friends in the game?

Eyez Neverclear, Flashman, BuckledMac, Buzzin, DnD, anti-duck, tim|away, momo, and a few others that I'm sure I forgot to mention

Who are your enemies in the game?

I don't make very many enemies

Who adopted you when you were a n00b?

no one really, although i believe it was the good people at AOS that handed me my first junkie strat, which i then made my own, and I would say I figured out A games alot from talking to Eyez

If you could tell one person in the game to go to hell who would it be and why?

No one really comes to mind

If you could meet one person from dws that you haven’t yet, who would it be?

There's a couple I'd like to meet, but I'd love to have a beer with eyez. (I didn't realize windsor was a 6+ hr drive :@ )

kitty: thank you :)

Phuquit: I thought that might be it, but I'll choose to go with denial on this one, it's gotten me this far in life

ruff: thanks m8, I wish I'd had more opportunity to play alongside you

anti-duck: thanks for clarifying that for me, I hope to catch you on MSN some time, I'm still waiting on those math lessons.

Metall_Fan: Sorry about that, I just couldnt get the hang of that milkshake strat you were trying to teach me

DC: thank you :) I'm glad to see you finally got that those daqqers whipped into shape (well, most of 'em anyway :P )

-skeeter-: thanks, for a minute there I thought you might have me too, but I can be a sneeky one at times

Lontan: much appreciated, I remember playing alongside you once, but you wouldnt have known it was me. It took me a few weeks of asking "who was that guy with all those guns" before i found out it was you. ;)

Flashman: thanks bro, that means a lot coming from you. Next time just give a day's notice and you know I'll be there

Kramse: no worries, it takes alot to offend me, and I know a thing or two about being tactless ;)

kizkiz: ermmm. sorry you missed out

kurtz - eyez and I were out one night in Seattle and I was nursing a beer. He told me about you and how you're one of the best players in the game and nobody realizes it because you don't have an ego.

That's rare, and I'm glad you got the recognition you deserve. I don't think I've ever played in a room with you, but DW is a small world and I'm sure we'll get a chance at some point (if we haven't already and just didn't realize it!).

Congrats
