Tight Teens R Best (TTRB) is a Carlsbad, New Mexico badass clan of a video game Call of Duty. They are a nonprofit organization run by a volunteer force of dumbass and badass members committed to promoting and raising awareness of their clan, especially Call Of Duty. TTRB is composed of strong, friendly, intelligent, enthusiastic men from all walks of life pursuing emotional outbursts and physical death by challenging their perceived limits. As a clan, they also wish to promote mental and physical empowerment, development of skills, loyalty on and off the server, individuality, and teamwork - throughout the entire game, both locally and nationally.

The modern reincarnation of PvP Player vs Player, Call of Duty is only just the beginning TTRB will be famous in. Not only is TTRB the only clan the best in the South, it is one of only a small handful of people. Modern, PvP games which are already released include: Halo 5, Black Ops 3, Gears of War, GTA 5. Even though there are over 400 modern PvP games in the United States, TTRB was only the 100th clan to achieve top in leaderboards in the nation. Even more unique, TTRB is the only one of these PvP games who is a nonprofit organization!

TTRB has 9 members online. Tight Ull, Tight Funk, Tight Kicks, Epsilon1123, Tight Regency, I Frozo I, Tight Gonzo, no 1 with green, TheFerretGod, and xFRANK3NST31Nx

Mission statement: As a nonprofit organization, Tight Teens is committed to fostering serious competition on a national and international level, developing amateur gamers for competition, and promoting the physical and mental strength and independent spirit of gaming. And also apparently having Jason putting it in me

Tight Ull is a founding member and leader of the clan.


Teams

Tilted Thunder is one of several active banked track roller derby leagues in the country. The skaters bout under the Roller Derby Coalition of Leagues (RDCL).[1] Between 2008 and 2011 Tilted Thunder was made up of two teams, Red Team and Purple Team. In 2011 the first season featured the four current intra-league competitors:

  • The Rolling Blackouts
Season 1 Champions
Season 2 Champions
  • Royal Crush
  • Saint Hellions

Skaters who do not skate on home teams are called "Chicks". They hone their skills in the "Chick Pool" until a home team drafts them.

The All Star team is TTRB's travel team.
