Magnum is an Australian Quake player from Geelong, Victoria. He has been playing video games as long as he can remember and playing FPS since the days of Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Duke3D, etc. 

Magnum was an active member of the Australian Quake scene from its earliest days until [[2004]] before taking an extended playing hiatus from the game, focusing on newer games, until returning to the king of FPS in mid 2020. 

Through his early Quake days he formed a team with other local players [[Miyagi]], [[Mithrel]] and [[Cerberus]], and helped establish and run '''Network Meltdown''' LANs for the local Geelong scene, whilst regularly attending various LAN events in Melbourne to play Quake. Magnum was an early member of the '''Outta Town All Stars''' clan, being a player from outside the Melbourne area and a contributor to [[Besmella-Quake]] that covered the Australian Quake scene. 

In the earliest days of Quake he has great memories of LAN games with the [[Ash'Ock clan]], [[Sons of Quad]] at the Camberwell Internet Cafe, attending [[Impulse 97]] LAN and playing Quake as a 'LPB' using the T1 connection at his University. Later memories of Shafted and Warts LAN and blurred eyes playing Quake with friends at their share house when he really should have been studying for Uni exams.

In 2020 Magnum returned to active play and the great community of Australian Quake players has aided his return to the game and to brush up on his skills.
