British clan
History
TSW was started by a young lad named 
Ash with a dream in his heart in spring 1998. One day while jogging with the wild whores of Matlock, young Mr Ash thought to himself in the way that all young people do; hmm why dont I start a quake clan full of the other quake players on Force9 (a famous FFA server back in the old days)? And so TSW was born. The early members didn't have a clue about team play or anything really.
TSW played in the lowest possible division in the UKCL in the beginning and ended in the lowest possible rank. After only one season, focus was changed from UKCL to the UKQA (United Kingdom Quake Academy). That league was limited only to incredibly poor clans and TSW was very welcome. Even for UKQA standards the game was so poor, that they achieved no more than a few wins here and there.
It soon came to the point that Ash was bored with how TSW was evolving. He left. Oli and 
Andy (back then known as Quadearz and Simplybag, respectively).
The clan's philosophy changed under their new leadership, taking the game more seriously than ever. Well, not like it means much, heh. Anyway, new players were recruited and TSW re-joined UKCL, in which they again didn't perform too well but significantly better than before. Regular practice games were held and proper teammessages were created.
Both lost interest soon, mainly due to the unreliability or disinterest for regular games of some members. Andy had higher goals and left to join The Fragging Pumpkins. Oli generally lost interest and was busy with real-life.
Stickman took over and lead events in TSW for a while before he felt like he was no longer able to run the business and Gaz took over. Under his reign, the team changed dramatically. Several solid players were recruited and first achievements were won.
With Gaz being the leader of TSW, the clan changed its face and it turned into one of the better clans in the UK. In the second last Season of the UKCL, TSW finished 3rd in Division 1, only beaten by Denial and Four Kings.
The team turned inactive in ~2003.
