You're really conservative!
I always try new things with language.

*seafood

Seafruit is defenitely possible

[Toni]

I like Seafruit

Say CS how much did you pay Ozzy to put 5 seafruits in your cap

[Toni]

Hey guys, bad news.

I'm moving next Friday so I'm going to miss the 1st game. To be honest, I don't think I'll have enough time for this game. How busy I'm truly going to be in university just hit me when I went yesterday for a tour and to buy books early.

Thanks for your guys time, hopefully next year thing might clam down (the 1st in Engineering is suppose to be really busy/hard.)

With such a new group of players I'm a bit worried about connection issues.

All must have the latest patch installed = 3.03

Do all understand about setting up BOTH their
* hardware firewall
* and software firewall?

When you install BTS it usually sets up the software firewall correctly but not the one in your (ADSL) modem.

You don't have to turn off firewalls you simply need to set them up correctly as per Soren's advice. I've never turned off my firewalls and can host and play successfully.

BTW I'm using a MacBook with BootCamp and WinXP installed on the second partition. The graphics are fine (although I set them to low to minimse issues) and it's better than my PC.

Macs are very clever machines indeed.

We should be ok Deity, we will be playing via the gamespy lobby. Which solves our con problems

What's the Gamespy Lobby?

[deity]

So that's the Internet Lobby from within the game?

What's that Comrade thing that installed with BTS in my task bar?

[Robert]

That comrade thing is a thing that's a waste of space. I never install it.
It's some kind of a peer-tool, like AIM or something.

Gamespy won't fix all our connectivity problems. People still have to configure their firewalls correctly.

Do we patch to 3.03? I think we have to, if we want to play through gamespy.
