What ever happened to yamazaki?

<div class="IPBDescription">His map looked promising....</div>I was looking up the origin of the "Helicopter Weasel" story (couldn't find it, but i know it started when i was a new member) when I ran into Yamazaki's map thread. I remember his metal tutorial (and used it a few times) and I am just wondering if anyone knows where he is...

P.S. What was the helicopter thread?

    He was away for a while, and just got back recently. Your timing is very well done, as he just submitted a new version for the next playtest actually <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    Are we talking about killtoy? Am I right to assume that Yamazaki left NS?

    Heh... helicopter weasel funny...

    Someone described attacking as a level 1 to be: "Biting like a crazed weasel in a bag dangling from a helicopter". It was soon after that movie was released, the one with the bob biting the marine's legs. It had no sound...

    I thought the phrase was funny, and took it as a sig, since I'm too lazy to make a nicer one. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Don't forget Pinky, our favourite thesis-grade poster.

    I bet a few people got bored with waiting for NS to be released and slunk into the shadows to re-appear upon release.

    Badmofo got discouraged when his HD crashed, I'm not even sure that he's mapping anymore.

    BadMofo is still mapping, check out <a href="http://forum.hlrally.net/index.php?act=ST&f=3&t=1120&s=a4597e987bd65f76619b056debc6c63f" target="_blank">this</a> HL Rally forum thread.  Not sure if he's planning any new NS stuff though  <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->

    Yes it does Rhoads, notice that Comprox said <b>he</b> and didn't specify <b>who</b>, Freemantle was asking who comprox was talking about. <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->
