Drakas

OS: Windows
Location: Global
Height: 5'10"/178cm
Favourite gamemode (AC): ctf @ ac_mines
Favourite gamemode (Sauer): ctf
Favourite food: Broccoli

As a child, Drakas was known for being quite an engaged mind. In fact, you might call him an an über-geek although he really isn't one. That aside, he does make great use of computers and the internet and is pretty good at cooking. You'll see him bragging about how good something he just made tastes... and he'll eat it along with some noob meat too.

Drakas' first proper game was SimCity, which wasted much of his childhood on. Soon enough he was introduced to Quake 2, but did not take much interest in it, later encountering the fun Wolfenstein 3D. But in the later years, he found himself playing Unreal Tournament, where he was getting pretty much owned: it has a long history! At that point in time he was hooked on FPS. He advanced to Cube/Sauerbraten and Warsow soon enough. He also enjoyed playing Warsow, known as "Quake on weed".

In the days of old Sauerbraten, his competition was against rock.n.rol, sdk, nitronix, t0taln00b and others, some of the most famous players of the old days. In October 2006, Drakas, t0taln00b and Flapdrol, got together a team of those who want simply to pwn, because the clan competition was not big enough! That was when the "n00b-clan" was born. In a week's time, however, we renamed ourselves to the Woop clan, as we are today.

Drakas has managed this clan (Fragfests and AC World Cup) and participated in various competitions (ESL, AC Cups), provided the HI-SKILL ladder and Woop Clan AssaultCube Match League for AssaultCube, and lately duel.gg Sauerbraten ranking platform.

He spends his days as a professional software engineer.

Sanzo

Location: France
Age: 21
Operating system: Windows 7
Favourite game: AssaultCube
Favourite gamemode: capture the flag @ ac_mines

Sanzo's journey in AssaultCube began at the end of AssaultCube 0.93. He and his irl friend Gale0n built a friendship with ech0 and LiFe and eventually joined the Redemption Gaming clan (.rG!), the most active and skilled French clan at the time which was lead by Darknot and Brett. The last tournament Sanzo played as an .rG was at the ESL Summer Cup 2009 in which they were only surpassed by the legendary trio... Drakas, tenshi and Majikal. Sanzo was invited to join Woop in June 2009, which he accepted. Since then, Sanzo has played countless matches and tournaments - winning most of them! Following Drakas' departure from the AC scene, Sanzo took leadership of the AC squad to ensure that Woop's legacy would prevail.

"Even after such a long time, I still enjoy being in this family as much as I did when I first joined. I hope that this will continue as far as my personal life allows, and beyond."

tenshi

Operating system: Linux
Location: Germany
Favourite game: Sauerbraten

tenshi joined Woop in 2007 and since then changed the clan into what it is today, reigning both in AssaultCube and Sauerbraten. Not much is known about his elite lifestyle which involves computers.

In Sauerbraten, tenshi completely dominated the FFA and insta scene (effic was not played during PSL) in PSL - first serious Sauerbraten series of tourneys. He has won more titles than any other player, amassing 6 insta and 6 FFA titles. He also helped w00p to win amazing 22 team titles during PSL. Over the years, this helped him to establish the status of Sauerbraten's greatest legend.

An example of tenshi's dominance (winning all individual and team titles on multiple occasions):

Later on, he would occasionally come out of inactivity and help w00p win team titles. On several occasions, tenshi showed an amazing ability to win top players even after being inactive for longer periods of times.

$ sudo chpwn rhubarb -R noobs

Rhubarb enjoys FPS games, such as Sauerbraten, Assault Cube, Urban Terror and World of Padman - all in 64 bit GNU/Linux goodness.

Other interests include:

Bashing M$ noobs.
Bashing Apple noobs.
Bashing religious noobs.
Encouraging noobs to be less noob-like.

Toast goodness
Rhubarb

Tinkering with electronics, computers, and people's minds satisfies Rhubarb's curiosities.

Rhubarb's favourite super heroins and heroes:

Captain Obvious
Iron Snout
Bad guys and gals in movies

Rhubarb does not play seriously.

Rhubarb attempts to learn from other players, their good points and their weaknesses. Much like the Borg, except Rhubarb doesn't watch Star Trek.

Behind the scenes Rhubarb is handy in the kitchen, rhubarb being the key major ingredient in Rhubarb's signature dish.

Rhubarb is also an excellent ingredient that can go into Dinner and sweets. Which means there's never a meal that rhubarb can not be included into. It's one of the 5 major food groups!

Rhubarb likes to bathe in the w00p community, to chat about anything and everything, and to play some ggs. Come around and have a chat, play some games, chill out and unwind ;-)

If you use an oterapnig setysm taht heppnas to be mdae by mroicstfot or alppe, you pboblray wlil be mdae fun of by Rbuhrab. Use oepn sruoce wneherevr plebosse, and you wlil not be lkecokd itno any ptfalrom. And rbememer kdis, wrok srmat, not hrad.

lagout

Location: France
Favourite game: Sauerbraten
Joined: October 2012
Mouse: Kana mouse
Favourite food: Hot cheese foods
Age: 23
Favourite mode/map: effictf reissen & teamplay

lagout as a kid started off with Duke Nukem 3D.

He found out about Sauerbraten after coming back home from a drunken-as-shit night. lagout had been playing regen capture for a while before stepping foot in the clan scene.

As he is an ambitious person, he joined Woop to play with very skilled players and get his teamplay groove on.

lagout is also a fan of sounds, knowing how to play the guitar, banjo, ukulele, washboard. He can even sing, though we are not sure if that is a result of his sound engineering degree.

Sounds aside, he makes his living hunting unicorns.

lagout also likes Quake Live and Warsow.

ech0

Age: 19
Operating system: Windows 7
Location: France
Favourite Music: Rock'n'roll, Electro, Pop
Height: 5'8"/175cm
Status: Defender
Favourite gamemode: capture the flag @ ac_mines
Favourite lesson: Mathematics

ech0's first computer came in October 2007 with pretty old hardware, and soon enough he started AssaultCube, his first First-person shooter, in October 2007 with LiFe and Mitic. His first team was aCKa and then .rG!, and he moved onto Woop in June 2009, by whom his impressive gameplay skills weren't unnoticed.

Harrek

Location: France
Favourite game: AssaultCube

Harrek joined Woop in November 2010.

Acuerta

Location: Germany
Favourite game: Sauerbraten

Acuerta joined w00p in August 2011, intending to restore w00p to its place on the throne of Sauer. His efforts have proven to be a success. Acuerta lead w00p team in many tournaments where they won several titles (alongside with raffael, lagout, Kabuza, Majikal, brownie, tenshi, Lexar, walker).

Acuerta also recruited many of w00p's great players: lagout, raffael, Lexar, walker and others.

He also won several SWL effic titles, becoming a grand champion and never losing an effic match in SWL tourney. After that, he proved his dominance by achieving a flawless performance in SWL efffic ladder, a separate event, where 22 players played against each other. Acuerta managed to win literally every game and had a perfect score - 21/0/0.

When you take in account his amazing team skills and leadership (helping and guiding several teams to titles), individual dominance in all modes (when he bothered to play insta/FFA), Acuerta is probably the greatest all-around player in the history of Sauerbraten.

After 2 years of absence, he rejoined w00p in October 2015.
