Find old Quake III Arena friends & teammates
Quake III Arena (Quake 3) ran on clan servers and ladders where the regulars knew each other by handle and rail accuracy. Post the nickname and the server or clan you played to find an old frag rival.
Often it isn't the game you lost — it's the MSN, AIM or Xfire that shut down, the old forum or IRC channel that got deleted, the Skype or ICQ that no longer exists, the TeamSpeak, Ventrilo or Mumble server whose IP stopped working. Usually a nickname is all that's left — and that's enough to start.
Post what you remember
The nickname or character name, the clans and servers, and roughly which years — small clues are often enough.
The community helps
Anyone can share your post or recognise the player. A Cores bounty rewards whoever makes the connection.

Finding old Quake III Arena friends — FAQ
How do I find someone I used to play Quake III Arena with?
Create a wanted post with the Quake III Arena nickname or character name you remember, plus the clans and servers and roughly which years you played. The post is public and searchable, so anyone who recognises the player — including the person themselves — can respond.
I only remember their username — is that enough?
Often, yes. A distinctive Quake III Arena username plus the server and era is frequently enough for someone to recognise. Add any memory you have (a guild, a team, an inside joke) to improve the odds.
Is it free to post?
Posting is free. You attach a bounty in Cores — XCORE.GG's internal points — which is paid out to whoever helps you reconnect. Cores are not money and cannot be withdrawn.
