CL_Falconwing, part of Cloud Cobra way back in the day. The MS Zone was my first experience with an online gaming community.

[starmax]

wasn't it the greatest!!! What good Times!!

[akaChrisHimself]

Totally forgot about the ice maps. There were some great c1'ers out there, some in ReIIiK - some not.

Most the units I remember were from the BZ league.

SJ
KoIS
SD
HRR
TDL
Savages
VB
KE

Anyone remember the approx. date the zone went offline?

[starmax]

The last day Of MS zone Was,,,,, lobbies closed on June 19th, 2006 A sad day I was there to the last!!

[starmax]

Yes I remember Savages I was a member for a while ,,, Hawk , storm, and many more they were great players and fun ...

[Pariah Devalis]

Yeah, I played on the MSN zone. Think during the MW3 era of the Zone, my handle was Shadowcat and Bloodgundam, but for the life of me I cannot recall the name of my clan. By mechwarrior 4, my handle switched to Pariah, and then later to Pariah Devalis. I was involved in Clan Wolf, Clan Fire Mandrill, and Clan Nova Cat.

[akaChrisHimself]

I think I remember less about my Mw4 days than Mw3. Hopefully there are a lot of lurkers out there and more Zoners stumble in as we get closer to Summer 2012.

[Havoc2]

I remember playing on the Zone and having multiple league matches scheduled at the same time lol.
Ran DC in a few leagues, more commonly DI (Damage Inc. Merc unit).

I remember running matches for a few hours, switching tags and fighting for a few more lol. Good times.

[Creel]

played a ton of SL matches back in '00 with Kell Hounds.

[Niccollo Mercer]

Mostly I played under WDSxJoshuaWolf and then FWLxJoshuaWolf. I miss a lot of people. ><
