The Beginning...
The "Wrecking Crew" first started off as the coming together of Freezer and Jazzman-X while working together and finding we both had the mutual obsession with Quake and soon to be Quake 2. We also talked to Toxoph (who is my uncle for trivia knowledge, hehe) and we then all decided to start our own clan. At the time Toxoph and I were already in a clan. The "Hate Inc." clan, was our first experience into the clan social circles. At first we loved it, but.... then we found there was a bad seed in the clan who was just an all around jerk. Right about that time was when we met up with Freezer and decided to start our own clan.

The Name
The name for the clan was created by Freezer. We thought about a name for at least 2 weeks and had some pretty strange and funny ones (I personally liked my idea: 'The kick you in the throat and stomp your nads clan"). In the end we decided we wanted just a cool simple clan name, no death or blood in the name and no friggin initial name.

The First members
We had several of our friends join up right away. These included Antimatter , ZapMan, and FRaG GoD. Then shortly after Hirudin, MSkierMD, Compwhiz, Viper, and Miyagi Sun. We have had several other great members join over the last few months and keep having new people wanting to join all the time.

Demolition Site birth
The only thing that was holding us back from being a legit clan in the early days was having our own server. We at first tried to get a local ISP to let us put one up at their office but that fell through because of various reasons. Then a stroke of luck, I got a great new job as a web page designer at an ISP! Within about 3 months of working there we set up our first server. The original server was created from various parts donated from several members of the clan. The bulk of these came from Viper, Freezer and myself. We then had a contest within the clan to decide on a name for the server. There were several entries with the final 2 given to Viper to decide on the winner. He picked Demolition Site. The name was originally created by Hirudin and he was the winner of a free copy of Quake 2.

The first server was a Quake server setup for straight DM play. The first person to log on to the server was FRaG GoD.  It worked very well for a while but seemed to get more and more unreliable as time went along. Freezer and I performed countless operations on the system and was able to achieve success to certain degrees. We then decided to switch it to a Quake 2 server after a vote that was put to the clan. Again at first it was fine, but after we switched it to CTF it seemed all hell broke loose. We then began running the server from my system until we are able to do more work on the original system. We are now running two servers: one as a CTF and the other as an Action Quake server. They are both run all the time, except for when they crash which seems to happen every few days.

Current Demolition Site info
The system our current servers run on is a P2 233 with 64 megs of ram, directly on a fast T1 connection. Our other backup system is a P133 with 24 megs (which is plenty for a dedicated server).  During busy times the Quake2 servers can take up as much as 80% of the ISP's bandwidth.

We are running the Lithium mod along on top of the standard Q2 CTF mod on one server and the newest versions of Action Quake as they come out on the other. The servers are located in Fort Myers, Florida. You can see who's on our servers and other popular CTF & AQ2 servers by going to our Servers page.
