scabb · 08-14-2002, 05:25 AM

Seriously, sort some times out, so we can all be on at the same time, and...wait a minute? Is this your IP?

Anyway, sort out times! And then we can meet up and frag me.

Riffage · 08-14-2002, 07:31 AM

Yay. Deathmatch. I luvs you Riffage.
Guess what! When I play FPS's, I like to make my nickname all jaggedy, like sCaBB. Becoz it's cool.

Do you lik pokemon?

ptdc · 08-15-2002, 11:08 AM

Does that have the same effect as licking toads?

I dunno. It turns the Pokemon into hairy women. What does licking toads do?

The Adventurer · 08-16-2002, 03:13 AM

Skrew CS!!!!! You should be running Day of Defeat!!!!

Riffage · 08-16-2002, 12:13 PM

ok, Deathmatch is enabled on the UT server now, iv had to change the HL server back to DMC as Counter-Strike uses too much bandwidth. I also plan to enable CSHP on the UT server to stop cheating.

Want any more changes? Post here

pegnose · 08-22-2002, 03:09 PM

Did i miss something here...

What about Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast!! duel servers: saber only no force powers and tffa with same rules... plz!

Riffage · 08-23-2002, 05:48 AM

find someone with a fast internet connection and who's willing to host as i dont have enough bandwidth anymore, sorry.

scabb · 08-23-2002, 09:05 AM

Brilliant :P

Come on people, anyone on a 1024/512 connection?

Riff, surely you could host just one of the games...I think that it's stupid hosting two, as pings would be quadruple figures, but maybe just one, now and again.

Or, of course, we could adopt a server....

pegnose · 08-23-2002, 05:16 PM

I have 2000/2000 connection... tho i wanna play myself as well... and i have only one comp at this time..

thats a good idea, how do you want to load up the servers, by a vote or just an alloted time?

you can play aswell, youll just need to run the server and a client copy to play yourself, any chance you can e-mail me about this?

scabb · 08-24-2002, 10:54 AM

I think that alloted time is the best bet. It could be announced on the website/forums - but first you need a poll to see which time suits everyone best, which games people want to play, and who is actually interested etc..

When you submit your profile, there should be an option to add your timezone maybe? Days/Times you can and can't play?

Heh, this is getting way too complicated - but the #monkey-island IRC channel grew to popularity by using an allotted time....

**Huz** · 08-24-2002, 05:40 PM

MIQC's matches were played at allotted times, particularly the more unusual ones (ie. anything that wasn't Quake or Counterstrike). It worked well, and since you'll undoubtedly be recruiting people from outside of #monkey-island, it's probably the only way you can go.

Having said that, members could still communicate via ICQ (or something) to arrange matches. With MIQC, we were all such devoted Quake fans that finding a game wasn't really a problem. You'd just log in to IRC and go "ne 1 4 quake????/////@?~" in a highly irritating manner until someone answered. And if they didn't, you'd just threaten to ban them until they complied.

The main problem is that that ADSL connection isn't going to support more than a handful of people at once before it starts getting bad.

EDIT: At the end of the day, if you're going to have games at allotted times, you might as well do what we used to - book a BarrysWorld server (unless they don't offer that service any more). An ADSL connection can't compete with a professionally run server.

Riffage · 08-24-2002, 08:02 PM

Thta was mainly the plan to just "hire" the servers from Barrysworld, my adsl line was going to be used for training, such as teaching new tactics for maps, best example is UT Assault.

they still do it... tho it would cost....

Riffage · 08-25-2002, 07:35 PM

i think huz is on about the free server which you can book for 1 hour in the times that havnt already been booked. If we want our own server its £80 a month, and these are the rules on the free bookable servers....

Quote:

Each subscriber gets 4 hours of booking time a week, with a maximum booking length of 2 hours. This can be used to book any game, mod and config we support on the booking system.
The quota week runs from Monday morning to the following Sunday night.
You cannot carry quota from one week to the next so any unused quota will be lost.
If you delete a booking (this can only be done before it has started) you will automatically get the quota it used back for use during that week.

still, we can use my server for 1v1 training

If you wish to help us with small 1v1 servers for training please post here

that booking thing sounds great i think we should consider that..
yeah 1on1 training server would be good, but we can do training somewhere elsewhere, can't we?

Riffage · 08-26-2002, 06:08 PM

its not worth using up our 2hours a week on training, we will just use our own servers, saves time and gets more people through instead of having to wait a few weeks to train up 2 or 3 people

pegnose · 09-08-2002, 06:54 AM

hmmm... i maybe have one option: i found server called Hukkalandia and i noticed that they are willing to borrow jk2 server. only problem is that it's in Finland and i don't know what kinda pc and connection they have, yet.

but i'll find out and tell you guys later.

pegnose · 09-12-2002, 12:21 PM

the comp is Athlon XP 2000+ (1,67GHz) with 512Mt DDR dimm memory and RedHat Linux 7.2

it has 100MBit connection... so if you have good connection playing should not be the problem.. your call

Riffage · 09-12-2002, 02:41 PM

* Riffage drools

sweet 100mb connection *drools* one hundred megabit *drools* can it only run jk2?

pegnose · 09-13-2002, 09:40 AM

heh

they just got few servers more and soon there will be two jk2 servers..

Hukkalandia has now 7 servers: 2 firearms, 1 firearms, 2 jk2, 1 Day of defeat and Death Match Classic server

I don't now if they are going to get more servers lately.

Borrowing the servers is free and they say that it's easy too (if you can speak Finnish)

pegnose · 09-13-2002, 10:43 AM

So we can have servers to matches.. but does every1 got good connection??

Anyway, questions? just ask..

pegnose · 09-13-2002, 12:01 PM

oh almost forgot... if ya wanna try that jk2 server out ip is: 193.64.114.36:28070

it's ffa, with few forces and saber only rules... have fun (most players are from Finland) (and one admin real jerk)

scabb · 09-13-2002, 06:01 PM

I know some Finnish

"Haista Vittu"

Riffage · 09-13-2002, 06:08 PM

i would expect a UT2003 server would popup there as soon as the demo is finally released, did you know that in mark rein laugauge "2 weeks" means "6 months" ?

pegnose · 09-14-2002, 03:59 AM

uhmm... that's really nice scabb, i just don't think they will borrow us a server if you say that to them..

If Unreal Tournament 2003 will have players in Finland then i guess so...

btw jk2 players: download the promod!! much better

Riffage · 12-05-2002, 08:58 PM

*bump* any more news?
