Team Snarkpit

Okay guys, I suggest we get ourselves some exercise in the weekend,
to check out the team level. I'm generally speaking to the guys in
Europe/Western Europe. Just gather up in #snarkpit, and as soon as we
got enough peepz in there, we leave for a server.

You make it sound like a road trip.

Yeehaa - this will become very groovy, guys! So who is able to play a practice clanwar this week? (I think we are going to win :smile: )

I probably can't participate, but meh. I had a year's worth of TFC clan match experience a long time ago (99 maybe?), and I was probably one of the best +600 ping players in OGL.

name: Yak_Fighter
age: 20
current location: central pennsylvania
timezone: EST
plays: HLDM, CS, TFC, DoD, NS
likes: the FiveseveN, mapping, sports, drawing
dislikes: dancing

Dunno if I can make anything this weekend - got a mate's band coming up
to play a gig and they are crashing here as are some other mates, so
might be a tad busy. Will see if I can closer to the time though.

I'd join the snarkpit dod team if u want me :o

Let's not interrupt BlueBoy's slumber party.

Last time I checked the weekend consists of Saturday mostly ...

I don't think I've heard anyone plan a "sleep over" for years. Usually its more like,

's**t ... its 5am ...'
'you can stay here'
'cool, night'
'night'

I start the week after next ... logical structures and artificial intelligence here I come :sad:

I'd play on the DoD one if there is a DoD one cos I dont play much else apart from the odd CoD and UT2k4

mad this weekend ... I get to play with u guys on 300 ping (let the good times roll :wink: )

If you aren't in a clan for a game, just give yourself a snarkpit
prefix while playing it to drum up some publicity :smile: I play UT and HL
mods, and whether we official play games for whatever I'm on, might as
well just put the tag.

Something like #snarkpit | ReNo or, as I believe Steam now does
something to names beginning with #, maybe it would be best to start
with another character like [#snarkpit | ReNo].

ding on #snarkpit

:smile:

I know this first game is over now, but I've just gotten connected to broadband and would like to know which server we are playing on and at what time. That way I'll be able to join up for next time.

Well I am searching for DoD-Players right now - anyone up to join the DoD-Squad?

Sure, I'm in. I can be pretty decent at DoD, but am often frequently bad. Kinda depends on the map too I guess.

DoD All the way. AS I said earlier, my brother-in-law runs three servers for his clan (neoism) and I'm sure they would be happy to play us. The only thing is: 1. I think they might wipe the floor with us, and 2. Its a wast-coast USA server so it might not be so great for you europeans.

Definately sign me up for DOD. Since I got connected that and CS are about the only things I've played.

I'm in.

What server are we playing on and when?

It's all well and good to say were going to play but we got to get some details up and get organised.

Well... In order for just you and me to get in a game, smith, you'd need to be on, what 18 hours ahead of me? (I'm -8 GMT) So If I'm on at a comfortable 10PM my time, you'd have to be on at 4:00 pm the following day your time. That isn't very convenient. Now I could make an accomodation and get on at midnight, which leaves you at a much more doable 6pm, but then for our friends in england to join us, they'd have to get on at 8:00AM... you see the problems? In the end I think it really depends on what server we are playing on. My brother in-law's servers are usualy pretty full form about 9pm to 2 AM my time. So if we want to play ihis clan we need to be in that window. on the other hand, if we just want an empty server to meet in, any other time would work.

Ding? do you have a list of everyone? maybe you should post it along with the TZs so we can figure somthing out.

Hey Ding, you started this thing man, don't let it die on its ass. Here's a list everyone who put down their timezones, if your not on here but wanted to play, you know what to post.

(Some of the timezones may be off by an hour for some people, but if you'd bothered to put them down then I wouldn't be doing them myself at 1am :biggrin: )

GMT -8.00 - Tracer Bullet, Cassius

GMT -5.00 - Wild Card, Yak Fighter, Hydeph, G.Ballblue

GMT - Reno, Gwil

GMT +1.00 - Ding, Forceflow

GMT +10.00 - Agent Smith, 2dmin

I play on a UK dod server at about midnight and its approximately 2-3pm for them, so I don't mind staying up late occaisionally to play with you guys. We'd probably only be able to play on the weekends, what with timezones and other committments, but is worth a go.

Slap me in for the DoD one

Seems like I WILL get my broadband connection very soon. Perhaps next week... and soon I'll buy a new computer, so...

Well, I'm not sure about anything, but I guess I can just as well join :smile:

I haven't ever played DoD, so I guess I shouldn't be in that squad. But
besides that, I can play any game. NS would really be fun. A word of
warning though, I suck.

Well, I don't know if I made it clear with my last post, but if your interested you need to put down your name AND your timezone, so we can can an idea of when to play.

And don't worry if your out of practice, I only got Broadband recently and it took me about a week of playing to untrain my bot killing habits and get back to the level I used to be at. And besides, this is all for fun anyway, nothing too serious.

Ok, I've done some rough calculations, and assuming we're going to play on the weekend, that being friday night/saturday/sunday, If the people in the US start playing at around 3pm on saturday (GMT -8.00), the people in Europe play at around 11pm on saturday (GMT), and the people in Australia play at around 9am on sunday (GMT +10.00), we should all be on at the same time. :biggrin:

I'm willing to get up at 9am on sunday to try this out. I don't know how this works for everyone else.

Well, if you guys still have room in this thing for me, I will join. I read back a few pages, and am confused as to if there are still people joining because of that list of 8. Or is that just for the 8v8 team, and others can join? I am confused.

Anyways, if I can join this stuff, I will post my info. Just want to make sure. I play CS, TFC, and S&I mostly.

when HL2 arrives, i could be persuaded to join a group of fraggers..

as long as, its not an obligation to frag, and its supposed to be for fun not competition.

It'd be Saturday for people in Europe and the US, but Sunday for those in Australia.

I'm not sure if those team lists are happening, you'd have to ask Ding who started this thing, I'm just trying to keep the ball rolling. I think it'd probably be whoever against whoever, I'll see what people think. Just put your name and timezone down for now if you want in.

Don't worry Orph, this thing is entirely in fun, nothing too serious, just a bunch of mates blowing the s**t out of each other in a variety of mods :smile: .

I'll prolly be out at 11pm, but if not or if the night is going badly I'll be sure to pop along :smile: I'm GMT...incase my location thing didnt give it away :wink:

Okay, I suppose here would be the most popular mods ever. Vote on them!

Condition Zero

Counter-Strike

Half-Life

DoD

CS: S (Maybe?)

Any votes? Any other mods?

I think CS: S/CZ should be eliminated arbitraily, simply because many people don't even have them.

I vote DoD.

CS

is there really anything other than HLDM :biggrin:

/me wonders if anything as good as OP4 will be released for HL2..??

yes, its a reminiscing sort of question, i do not really expect an answer :razz:

personally, i feel OP4 is the best, under-rated mod created for HL.

I've never played Op4...

In some ways OP4 is better then HL. But in other ways it isn't.

then my friend, you have cheated yourself.. you should at least do the Single Player..

nothing, not even the guass can compare to munching some lame ass who is running away from you with the grapple

i think, the grapple will go down as all time great game weapons.. like the shrinker in duke, the glop gun in unreal,and the pulse rifle in doom 2

Opposing Forces is underrated genius, except for the end of the SP campaign.

I'd vote for DOD or CS, either is fine by me. What we need to do is figure out which server we are playing on.

Opposing Force was a great single player game, I enjoyed it more than HL. The multiplayer was pretty good too. I think we all remember the heavy machine gun, something HL really lacked, as well as the alien zat type gun, if anyone watches StarGate they'll know what I mean.

CS

CS

and could we make the time like 22:30 GMT or something ? Some peeps
have to go to school on monday ... (22:30 GMT = 23:30 for me and ding)

im with Orph, HL2 really needs to churn out something of the calibre of
OP4DM/OP4CTF for its multiplayer rather than fobbing people off with
the populist counter strike series :razz:

and on the subject of OP4 weapons, the wrench rocked, as did the barnacle :biggrin: classic to eat someone in DM with that thing :smile:

I don't mind which game provided I have it, any is fine by me. Chances
are I won't be there anyway so it would be unfair of me to vote.

Okay, sounds like a unanimous vote for CS. Where?

Does anyone have a server?
