View source for People/Kevin04

Player from Germany, whose uncreative nickname stems from his actual given IRL first name "Kevin" and his favorite number 4. The 0 resulted from Kevin4 already being taken when the name was first created for a German gaming forum in 2002, the first online alias he used on the Web. He has always kept it, even though it's a really bad name.

Generally not a competitive player in the sense of playing in actual competitions. Only participated a bit in [[The Challenge Base|TCB]] (if that counts), a couple of [[Worm Olympics|WO]] tourneys in 2008 and some rare clan activities. Overall, it's pretty much fun matches only, but a very wide variety of schemes.

== History ==
Started sometime in 2003 with [[Worms World Party|WWP]], switched over to [[Worms Armageddon|WA]] sometime in 2006. Stopped playing in 2011. Only some occasional private matches since then, but got back into WA in 2022. To be continued.

== Some stuff he's done ==
Was an active map maker in WWP, primarily for [[Wall-X-Wall Shopper|WxW]]. Most of the maps are on [https://www.tus-wa.com/profile/Kevin04/maps/ TUS], some are unreleased but may be added in the future (not that they'd be worth it). His [https://www.tus-wa.com/maps/map-54/ w3w l 03] was the first to adopt the arguably most popular WxW layout.

Created the compilation video [https://wormtube.worms2d.info/48/a_worms_movie A Worms Movie], featuring clips from him and friends.

Used to work on a project he called "Worms Map Archive", for which he scoured the web and requested SavedLevels folders of people he played with. Did this for several years and tried to organize everything by folders, which resulted in an extensive collection of [[Monochrome map (.bit, .lev)|BIT maps]] in particular. The data is still there and safe, but has never really been made publicly available, as his interest in Worms faded before the project was considered to be in a state ready for release. The maps will hopefully be made available via [[The Ultimate Site|TUS]] sometime, or at least dumped so anyone interested can look for gems or shit nuggets in there.
