Everyone seems to be ranting about this in the IRC channel...

I'd like to set up a Quake 3 tournament, open to any members of TS, set up sometime in July. Phantasm66 seems to be challenging all comers right now, his server is at 213.107.20.122.

I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts about how the tourney should be set up, who will host servers, etc.

The winner will also receive alot of public recognition and really feel good about himself :grinthumb

Well we tryed playing yesterday but Phant's server crashed after a few minutes. It was a test to see who was willing to walk the walk after all the trashtalk we had yesterday.:D

Quake??
AHHHHHHHHhh

How about Jedi Knight2

yes. i am into this.

i am getting another cable modem on monday so i shall set up a dedicated server.... details to follow....

i am crap at quake III put I love to play anyway....

just don't fit demiurg. he is the jedi master.

Gee P66, thanks for saying that now. I actually played UT with him. Well play is a big word for what happened. I haven't launched UT since. I'm sure that if I do, it won't stop laughing.

Sounds cool, set it up.

I own Jedi AND Q3

Hehe. Kind of like Yoda in Attack of the Clones...
I'm in too. But I got to reinstall QIIIA first - haven't played it in months.

hehehe me and friend just watched yoda fight....

hehehe in the third movie yoda fights emperor...

you DO kick *** demiurg.....:)

I can try playing Quake when I get back.
First I have to play "Find who has my copy of QIII....".
I'll give UT a shot also but CS would be nicer!

I'll take on all comers..... UT, CS or QuakeIIIA, you won't be able to find me coz I'll be the one in a darkened corner surrounded by smoke.....;)

...fragged? ;)

....erm no....but anyone is more than welcome to join me in my rastafarian fog ;)

WARNING: Has tendencies to camp w/ either BFG or railgun

I've played in such few multiplayer Q3 games that I tend to not know how I really play, and the bots on Nightmare aren't that much of a challenge enough to warrant camping.

Since everyone is just going to gang up on me anyway I promise I won't camp...for over 5 minutes...


p.s. -> Internet Explorer for Mac is terrible :dead:

Anyone wanna play Q3 with me? I am soo bored :dead:

I can shoot you Veh! I don't mind - anytime. Just tell me when and where you'd like to be shot and I'll do it for ya.

We all know how much your server lags Papa...yeah right...

Anyway if I see you in the channel today I'll be sure to remind you ;)

I wouldn't mind having a go...

Im crap at it though...

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that jumping while shooting should be banned???

Its crazy...

I wonder if the S.A.S. or the American Military jumped around while shooting at the Al-Queada???

It just puts me off the game...

If you want to Go, RZ, just join the IRC channel and we'll make plans for your impending doom :evil:

*bump*

What's the current situation here? Anyone willing to set up a server? It could be something other than Q3A, too. Unreal Tournament, Quake 1 or 2, Half-Life or its mods etc..

I would certainly be up for a game.

Maybe there is a dedicated server on the net we could invade??

I'm up for all of that except half-life or any variation of half-life. Just say when and where! BF1942 might be fun as well!

LNCPapa

I've been refreshing my fps "skillz" the last couple of days, so I'm up for something...

Would've loved to play BF1942, but I don't own it, so playing on the net doesn't work...
But Q1,2,3 Unreal, Unreal 2k3 (only got demo), HL:CS or something like that would be fun...
At least I own those :)

Playing BF1942 can be taken care of - there are a couple of files that need to be replaced on the server side in order for it to allow you to play without owning it - I won't go into this though. I would love to play some Q1 so I can have an excuse to use Tenebrae, but I'm not that good at it.

LNCPapa

How bout some UT? Im not really a fan of Q3. :(

Also: anyone that thinks they're good or great at UT (not 2k3), lemme know, PLZ. If we could have a UT tourney, I want to know what the crowd is like here according to their FPS "skillz". As of UT that is :blush:

Please will you all, unlike this very silly boy, keep your IP addresses secret. Swap them in the IRC channel or something. Certainly don' publish them here for all to see. If you give that out, its like priviledged information. Its like me telling you my real name and address. Its an act of trust, and please don't violate that by broadcasting it to anyone and everyone.....

That said, hope to get a game organised some time soon.

I might be getting DSL (keyword: MIGHT) soon, I'd be glad to host. But some people will of course have faster connections than me...

I'm not up for many games though. My original Q3 CD got scratched to all hell.

I just got NWN. That would be fun playing multiplayer (right?). I also have Tribes 2, and Deus Ex. All my other games are not worth mentioning ;)

If anyone else here sucks at fps games and would like to take on me or team up with me against some d00ds or computers in starcraft I'm up for it almost any time.

phant - its no biggie really, unless your a silly goof with DSL. If you have a modem it changes, if you have DSL your IP could be dynamic, therefore it would change again. If you have DSL and its a static IP, commen sence says get a firewall up, or just get a router. If your PC is hooked into the router, hackers cant access it, because its IP just became bogus(ex: 192.168.0.2). they'll get your IP, and it will hit the router, and say "?¿?", I see more IPs. OK lets connect to one "192,168.0.2", it will come back saying no such IP. Unless it connects to the router, and then from there gets into the IP, but I dont think you can do that. I have DSL with a static IP, so I just went out and bought a router with a built in firewall ;) If your dsl line has a static IP, and you dont have a router or firewall, you deserve to be hacked :blush:

If I ever find a decent priced MOBO / CPU combo to upgrade my PII 400 box I can run a dedicated server for just about any game, barring that I have it.....If I don't have it I can borrow a friends as I know someone that has every game that has been talked about. So if anyone has any suggestions for a new proc/mobo for around 75 dollars I will hear it and look into it.

I know this is pretty cheap to get a decent combo, but that is all I am allowing myself to spend. I probably shouldn't spend that, but......you know how it is with computers....always gotta make it better

LOL, uhm agissi...you really don't know Phant well. He knows more now than you could ever imagine to know. Please...

You can download dedicated 1942 and UT2K3 servers for free.

yes i knew that a very long time ago, I wasnt saying Im smarter than him in anyway.

I have 2 computers, but Im also behind a router/firewall. If I ran a deticated server on one of the PCs, would poeple still be able to get in? If so, I'll make a UT2K3 server.

Never mind about all of that. Just listen to what I said and respect my wishes. Never mind what the motivation is. You don't know my setup, don't know from where I am connecting and don't know the full situation. If I say I don't want my IP address plastered over the forums then I mean it. Thanks. Oh and not trying to be rude here, but I DO KNOW what Network address translation is, and how one of your cheap ASDL/cable routers work.

LOL @P66 :) I'm very impressed ! i never suspected you knew all these techie things :p :) Who can explain what "PC" means ? Potatoe Chips ?
:D

maybe we could start a little ladder ? :)

could be kinda fun :)

OOOohhh...

just noticed you're a UT boy Agissi :)

sorry i'm totally dumb ... a ladder ???? what u mean ?

Ah, a ladder tournament.

Basically my understanding of it is that a player plays the person on the first "rung," and if he beats them he moves up the ladder, until he's at the very top. I doubt we TSers would ever pull something like that together though :D
