You were not being excellent to them. I find it best to refrain from insults whilst a guest on other people's servers. Frankly, I'm shocked at your actions.

Yahoo Tournament Pickem:

http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com

The best way to allow other people to join this group is to click on the "Invite Friends" link on your group's Commissioner Tools page and follow the instructions. You also have the option of sending them the Group ID# (86143) and the Password (pilum). Remember, it is the Group ID#, not the group name, that other people must use to join your group.

Join up guys. Also, we can play for money, but frankly, if we do that, just send it to me in advance, that's where it will end up anyway. I never lose these things and I can't really explain it.

Pilum I'm in, not for money though, I just joined 3 baseball pay leagues.

Forgot to mention, going in for NS. Only played once for about 15 minutes with GS and Maelstrom.

In shortly.

 

[Maelstrom]

In on the Yahoo after a couple nice NS rounds

 

[Gator Shawn]

Only two people in? We're not playing for money,

 

[Nick Vermeil]

I just signed up for the Yahoo NCAA thing. I'll try to get my picks done in time.

 

[Mad Cow]

Done

I forgot, but I did join a different yahoo league. I'll post it so we can keep track.Here's my link, we can manually track it.

ETA: Man, I completed the bracket immediately after they were announced. I just now looked back, I meant to edit it some. I chalked this one up badly, but I just didn't see a lot of upsets.

 

[TLEF316]

nice games last night guys. Too bad we didnt win more

 

[Mad Cow]

There is nothing more frustrating than playing a well-coordinated team and your team blows.

I played a couple of rounds yesterday. The first was Port Bavaria and we never capped a single flag as the EU. They had each flag guarded equally and well supported by mechs, etc.

The 2nd round was Remagen and they ran in swarms. I was in a speeder and saw literally 8 of them running together. I hit the thrusters hoping for a badge, but only got 4 before I was killed and never got another speeder the whole round because they kept those flags.

 

[Corporation]

Gator and I finally got our Titan Attack gold badges the other night, that Titan round lasted forever. After not being able to get 30 kills on the Titan, I finished the round with 61 Titan kills and 66 overall. Maelstrom got real close to getting it as well.

I'm heading to DC in the morning so I'll be out for a week. Will probably play some tonight, have fun if I don't see you guys before then.

It looks like the FBG channel has been dropped from teamspeak. Who did you tick off Gator?

Great, I'm gone for 1 day and somebody gets us booted. Fix this before I get back.

That one night I kicked that one guy from the channel one time. He was a child though. I bet our channel not being there and that little punk are completely unrelated. I'm not sure how you go about asking for it though. I just sent a PM to the BIGQEd guy who is the admin for Fraghaus. I'll find out what happened.

 

[Gator Shawn]

There haven't been any threads in the forums there so unless that guy was the brother of an admin there or something, I don't think we were shut down for any reason other than a oversight. Still waiting on a response though.

I was just kidding. If Cooleyo wasn't on vacation, I would blame him. Just picked up a couple of NS ribbons. I'll be on again after BSG for a few more games.

MC, put this stuff in the first thread for safekeeping. I got us our own TS server. $5.00/month. Free for 7 days. Seems worth it.

Server Address: 75.126.134.3:8811

Server Password: pilum

Login the first time as anonymous. I have access to the control panel so I can approve you after you've logged in the next time I log in.

If we get our FHA TS room back, I'll just cancel this, but it might be nice to keep it for like $52/year (if paid in full)

 

[Gator Shawn]

Actually PM me your desired username and password and I'll add you manually.

 

[Mad Cow]

Thanks Shawn - would you like some paypal donations for the use of it?

Sorry guys, I didn't see the PM on Fraghaus until tonight. I am not sure what happened to your channel but it is now recreated. When I see the chosen few in there I will pop in and provide channel admin rights. If it disappears again, email me at cnutz@fraghaus.com.

Thanks Cnutz.Well, guys, what would you rather do? Keep our private channel at a modest price if about 45.00/year if we pay in advance, or use the free option which will occasionally allow some riff raff in?

 

[CNUTZ]

You can always boot the riff-raff onc you have channel admin.

Even though I haven't been playing much as of late I, I'm okay with whatever ya'll decide. I won't mind kicking down a few bucks to keep a private channel just for us... Although Cnutz had a good point about kicking out any unwelcome people.

 

[Maelstrom]

I don't really care either way, but am willing to kick in a few bucks to help out if that is the way everyone decides. The "riff raff" cracks me up sometimes, until they get annoying. Did we ever determine if the new server is any faster or slower than Fraghaus?

 

[TLEF316]

i had no problem at all with the old server. I never experienced any "rif raf" But if you guys decide to go with a new one, ill chip in a bit somehow. Just let me know, and ill set up a paypall account or something

 

[CNUTZ]

The FH TS server is on a OC3 line at a ISP in Ohio. The guy that owns FH also owns the ISP.

My ping was SLIGHTLY better on the new one 48ms versus 55ms. I'll sample it a few times. For maybe 8 bucks per year we could have our own TS server, I think if for not other reason than the novelty it would be cool to have our own. For one thing it never disappears on us.

 

[Nick Vermeil]

Is anybody still playing? If so, on which TS? Is there a way to view the new TS server via a web browser to see if anybody is on? I like that about the Fraghaus server.

I'll try to get on later tonight for a bit.

Finally grabbed 2142 after wanting a change from BF2. I may try to catch up with you guys sometime if you could use another meat shield.

Tag is "RascaiKing"

--------------------------UPDATE - see post 6650 for a link with nothing on it but the TS info (who's connected) - I had to get my web host to open a port to allow the script to run.

--------------------------

I found this:

snipurl.com/fbgts

The actual full link (not snipped) is:

http://www.tsviewer.com/index.php?page=ts_...amp;port2=51234

I found a nice free script (teamspeakdisplay) that can be install on a website so we don't have to worry about all the extra crap on the page above (or even the Fraghaus page), but I can't get it to see the server for some reason. Seems to be a common error with this specific script from the forum messages I found about it. I'll post a link if I can get it working. I can probably get it working for the Fraghaus server as well showing just our channel, but right now it is showing the same error - server offline.

Welcome aboard! I'll be back to playing in a few days, was gone for a week on vacation, and then had a mishap where I can't play effectively.

 

[Mad Cow]

No one was on last night.

Got 3 more unlocks though with a rank, a ribbon and that one award for destroying 2 goliaths and such.

Lies! I played a few rounds. Unfortunately, I'm getting the F*^%^%( "unmodified content" crap now on half the servers. I even re-installed.

Nonetheless, I now not only have the pilum, but am also a full-fledged sniper.

There's no official C&C III thread????

No?Crap, as it is I have too many games to possibly play right now between BF2/BF2142, LOTR2, NWN2, Oblivion, SW:EAW, WoW, Medieval 2:TW, HL2:Ep1, BIA:EIB, etc.I have no time for another.The next time I will consider buying a game is when Bioshock, Enemy Territory:QW or MOH: Airborne come out AND they have good ratings.

C and C 3 looks great, but like all other RTS games, i know ill get tired of it once every uber nerd on the planet perfects build orders and 3 minute tank rushes. I dont like losing

Nope, not me. I'm still playing Generals. I go from BF2, to Civ4, to Generals depending on how quickly I want to can some butt. Generals is usually the 2-3 hours time frame.

i like them when they first come out. Its all about experimenting with stuff, flanking and using fun tactics. Then people discover the best strategies, and it becomes a matter of who can click the fastest and crunch the correct numbers for maximum efficiency. I cant do that as well as others can, so i get slaughtered and lose interest.

Nah. I just play against the machine. I tried to get other people, that i know, to play but everyone schedule is wacked. I was excited that Civ4 had that Pitboss, but again, no one to play with. And with four kids, I really can't schedule a consistent time either...

Wow. Nice screenshot!

The game is beautiful. Supreme Commander got a lot of props for the visuals but I prefer C&C 3 in that area. I still think the UI in Supreme Commander was awesome.

 

[Maelstrom]

I got the script working that shows who is online in Teamspeak on the server GS registered. It can be found here:

http://www.thirstforknowledge.com/fbgts/

If we switch back to Fraghaus, I can change which server it looks at and narrow it down by channel, I believe.
