I'm not sure if i posted those already or just mentioned to a few people on irc.. There are some old but interesting reads over at esrealty.com:

I added a link to this thread to the sticky "basics" post as i think thats stuff people interested in more intense gameplay should know about and i'm also trying to add something about finding out the best strategy for a given map in ctf.. http://alientrap.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1344

What do you think about playing? Is it just for fun, is it more fun if you play with strategy and try to read your opponents mind, can you out think him or do you think the better aiming wins?

Hmm, noone finds those posts interesting? Or is it too much theory?

Opening these links reveals a huge gray area and Mr.T on the upper right side of the screen I suppose, you have to be registered.

Oh.. didn't check. Sorry

I can't even get to it when I make an account.

You are right. me neither. I hope that just temporary, it was interesting to read and i'm very sure there was no need to register before i posted those links.

But well, lets see for some other links..

Old, but might be interesting: http://www.quaketerminus.com/quakebible/index.htm
Just googled around a bit: http://www.denken.com/dzone/q3articles_sg.htm

Meh, i also remember a very specify nicely written guide by some quake3 pro but can't find it..

I think a combination of both is good. I can't really say more then that.

I read the first ones, and liked them. It was pretty interesting, I never compared duels to chess before.

Yeah, I think chess is a bit /too/ strategic for me

It seems the links in my first post work again. I also made them two lines so its easier to see there are two links. With the upcomming tourney that should be valuable reads so i want to kickoff the debate again.

BTW those are the other links i was searching for:
