| − | == History ==
| |
| − | Founded in [[1997]] by a group of linux lovers in Madeira Island, [[Portugal]].
| |
| − | Founded by [[crow]] and [[arrow]]. back then, defs had about ten members.. and we weren't a clan, we were a linux development team.. or something like that - 1997/98 in [[1999]], [[crow]] came back to Funchal to the army, and then i was about two years without internet.. when i re-entered the net, defs were gone.. forgoten... but the name still remained in my mind. - [[1999]]

| − | meanwhile, [[arrow]] also came back to Funchal, and we started to play [[Quakeworld]] for fun.. and we became addicted to it.. and there were several leagues running at the time.. like [[NQL]], [[renegados]], etc.. and we tought we could make a team, so we decided to re-born as DEFS .. just a few friends to play for fun [[crow]], [[arrow]], [[bandit]], [[cangalheiro]], [[carcaju]], [[blackbox]], [[dalton]], [[terrorist]]). we played quake every day, but we still could not compete with clans like [[DoD]], [[RoT]] (i only mention this ones because they were the only clans from our home city.. Funchal).. so we recruted some of our friends that played quake a long time before us.. like [[NightGirl]], [[NightMare]] & [[Nigurath]] (ex-[[dod]]'s) [[DaSsSsS]] (ex-[[iqc]]), [[Pau]] (ex-[[RiP]]), [[Scanx]] (ex-lots-of-clans :p).. but still, because of lack of time or connections, we coulnd't play as we would like in tournaments and stuff... we just played friendlys and lans.

| − | later on, one of the best quake3arena clans in Portugal broke up.. [K] ([[kaothic]]), and most of them were our friends, so we invited them to join defs, ([[xong]] & [[plastik]]), and also ex [frag] [[Tyrant]], so we could have a quake3arena team, and they did.. so we started to play q3..

| |
| − | some weeks later, on one of my many trys to bring [[zip]] (now responsable for our qw team), [[sl4sh]], [[dr34d]] (responsable for our q3a team together with [[xong]]) and [[cyrax]] (all from clan [[DoD]], that also broke up :/) to defs, finaly they accepted! and as they were well experienced players, our team's became a lot better.
