zhady's last record - The response.
I guess everyone is aware of what has happened, after last record release, the first 121 record golden boy zhady lost his last standing record on the board.
I thought I'd post shNz pretty epic response to the matter.

You seem glad to see me man, appreciate it. You wanna know why I did it? Because for all those years I’ve been around, I’ve fought and won against each of all the greatest gladiators out there – except for zhady, whom I used to spectate and learn from, on that very same map in fact, as well as others, many years ago! This was my last chance to pay the ultimate respect to the godlike master, so I took it.
He had to go, man, just as all of us who quit will eventually be gone, and many of the greatest long ago have fallen already. We stand on the shoulders of those we conquer, and whenever we are done, we must fall so the progress can take place. That’s how it was, that’s how it is, and that’s how it always will be, until the limits have been reached and the end of time takes it all away from us.
Anyway, you don’t have to worry about me, I most certainly won’t be around for much longer. I am a figure of the past, in fact, a dinosaur from a distant era, and I ceased to consider myself a contemporary player quite some time ago, skill-wise, that is. I take a brief look through my current-records list and all I see is failed attempts of a passionate man at going places he could never truly reach. It is a shame those records are still intact, for they obviously don’t belong there anymore. A shadow of a fading ghost is what I am, so you may consider me gone already.
That’s how I see it, and all those guys who actually understand this game, although they may not care much(or at all) about any of it, they know exactly what I’m talking about, and I sincerely hope they will do what’s necessary to take those epic maps further. So don’t be too much of a sentimental fool, for if all of us were such, where would we have found ourselves today, and how many of the smoothest runs out there would have never seen the light of day? Don’t fall victim to your distaste for me either, but take a good look at the bright side instead. By committing this terrible crime I actually freed a forbidden/forgotten terrain. Now the cycle can continue, and spectacular runs can take their place, so that once again we could witness wonders happen.
If there’s anyone who understands what it means to take a man’s last record, it is me, so don’t you dare to think, even for a second, that it is only you who realizes the magnitude of this infamous act of execution, especially when it comes to zhady, for I doubt you’ve even been around back then, to have witnessed the beauty and experienced the glory of his mighty presence the way I have. And if you think a legendary player dies along with his last record, it is actually you who lacks respect for him, for the amount of records still intact is no merit of greatness when it comes to legends. I don't expect you to forgive or even understand, but I hope this message at least will clarify my motives, because it is a valid question you've brought up and it deserves a thorough answer. Take care now, and keep on climbing towards the peak!
I wonder if the same could happen to Toff and SS in this late state of kz.

Sad, but true.

I'm pretty sure I'm from an age before the dinosaurs. Like some sort of multicelled leach-like organism lurking in the dark.
I still masturbate to zhady's last cg_gridblock demo.
Even tho its just A game, Its kinda cool you still remember me. Even cooler I had A record until just now. Brings up some good and fun memories. I think I must've Quit like in 2011 or something. I havent had cs for many years now, but from time to time watch some records on youtube. Just watched the record and IT looked superb. Well done shnz!
I would really appreciate it, if someone could upload My run to youtube. Feeling A Little nostalgic. Thanks in advance.

Even tho they were/are great, zhady was and still is on another level, mostly from the pure fact that he's so oldschool.
Btw, this thread is awesome hah. Keep posting here, legends!
