You could still organise a team :-)

erm ... why ? ..

I think if people want to play ... they can play ... they don't need me to tell them that they have to play.

@kees
I didnt say you had to tell them they had to play, I only asked if you could help organise a team, wish I hadn't bothered asking now.

There's never been any harsh words between me and you, so why the attitude  ?

DaveyD, I believe in this case, you're predisposed to thinking something that just isn't the case.  Kees (IMO) isn't exhibiting "attitude", he simply appears to be not very keen on the idea of organizing a team which might only have the effect of creating further tension between the two sites.

A very understandable concern, in my view.

Title: Re: AW vs AO UT Team deathmatch challange
Post by: odin on November 14, 2003, 02:18:12 PM
Oh wayne....do come on......a game of UT would create tension? I most certainly don't believe that.

And I'm afraid I don't have UT :-/, if only you guys would use HL ;-).
Title: Re: AW vs AO UT Team deathmatch challange

It will probably have the opposite effect and relieve some tention

Thanks

The server is in the USA, but even I get a ping time of 150ms or better from here in the UK using NTL, infact most people that use our UT server are from Europe

Great idea that has been talked about before.

I've played on your server, i know what where up against  :lol: sounds like fun.

 Be nice if we could get a  timeframe where most can get involved, we need are dutch webmaster ;-)

Eeek!  Staying with UK servers.  Once I get broadband again.  >100ms pings are a total pain, people with pings like that get walked all over in games against decent, low latency players.

But again ... if anyone wants to play .... play  :-)

What attidude ? ... I see no reason to come up with a team .. as i'm not playing myself ... and i'm not going to pick 4 players because *I* want them to be on the 'Amiga.org team' ... if someone wants to play on behalf of Amiga.org, be my guest and I wish you good hunting ... but I am not going to decide who they are ...

Edit - I will expect to see the total distruction of the aw.nut team though  :-P

I'm happy to take part when the majority of players can from here, the good players :-)

Kees dude, you know you want to organise and play,  it's your job ;-)

Dunno why people have got the wrong attitude about the games, i think it's a great way to have a bit of fun for  regulars of the 2 websites.  The people with the hangups should lighten up..but if people are taking what is fun so seriously i dont see the point of them games at all.

I've played on the AW server along with other AO members,  there has never been any problems, they have been good sports and we have had a great time.
They have had alot of practise though so the games would be tough... errr probably ;-)

NOW THAT WE BOOTED DOOMMASTER!!!!  :roflmao:
/edit/ I know, he left voluntarily /edit/

sure!  yea,


I see how it is. Now that he's back over there you have a ringer! :-o
 :-P  :roflmao:

Sounds like fun though, I anticipate one small topic that's about to come up that *could* conceivably cause minor flames though....

Which team gets to be red and who's going blue? :-o  :-P

Post by: DaveP on November 14, 2003, 04:05:46 PM
Erm we had that discussion in IRC the other day, Kees was determined not to be "blue" team.

So they are doing a playoff for the colours

Doomys going to have some real mil-spec cannons so watch out.

And PS, you can have him back anytime ;-)

Thats the closest we can get to a toss of a coin

While I have UT, it would require me setting up my PC again for it.

Can't we play Quake or Quake 2 and then I can run my Peggy?

I will dig around for his UT disks tho.
Title: Re: AW vs AO UT Team deathmatch challange
Post by: ikir on November 14, 2003, 08:46:31 PM
UT is perfect for me. There is more people who have a pc that Amiga also here on AO and AW.

But i can play also Dinamyte or Quake 1 on my 1200.

My problem is the latency (ping) not the game. Good play for tomorrow, have a nice game..... and DaveyD is a very good players ;-)

The Amigaworld.net Team are:
DaveyD
Herewegoagain
SlayeR
LaBodilsen

Reserve player to be comfirmed.


@downix
Unreal Tournament seems very popular with Amigans, infact this site had a poll asking users what games server this site should host, Unreal Tournament came 1st in the poll.

@ikir
Thanks but i'm not that good, just good enough to beat kees

Title: Re: AW vs AO UT Team deathmatch challange
Post by: downix on November 14, 2003, 09:01:25 PM
@DaveyD

That may be, but it also eliminates anyone running an Amiga.  Quake and Quake 2 run on all platforms, hence why I suggested them.

In the meantime, I can't find my UT for PC disks, but I can for Dreamcast which doesn't help me much here I am afraid.

Or for MorphOS.  Actually, if I had the money, I know of a coding team willing to do a port to AmigaOS PPC (WarpUP/PowerUP) enabling both OS's to take advantage of it.  But, I lack the $50k to get the license for these folk.

Reserve player has been confirmed, so the final line up is..

- mossup (Reserve)

Now all we need are 5 players from here at A.org, if you're interested PM me or post here

Well, maybe we could get some of our extra players to play on the AO team...   :-D

I'm surprised that there is not 5 people here willing to pick up a friendly team game.  Where is Calen?  I know he is very good... He just needs 4 others (3 players +1 reserve)
Title: Re: AW vs AO UT Team deathmatch challange
Post by: Calen on November 15, 2003, 02:46:45 PM
I'm more than happy to join in but it seems a no win as we have not organised a thing and are good players like Kees isnt available for it,  We could have some hidden pros ready to play, if so..go for it

I will be back in time for the game but i have no time to organise a team. i'd say where stuffed anyway but it's all in the fun :-)

Not sure where are all this is going down but i i guess this be the place to be?

How about a DynaMite tourny instead?  I mean UT?  Get me a copy to run on my Amiga, my Pegasos, or even my Amithlon, and I'de be more than willing to play.  Until that happens, it's a PC game for PeeCee'ers.

Last time I checked I was banned for no apparent reason from the AW UT sever, anyone that saw me in action for the few times I managed to get in could see I was not cheating. I'm :pissed: that I can't play UT just because I can't get all the anti-cheat upgrades that PC users can.

And as far as I'm aware my PM about this hasn't been answered! OK, maybe I should have sent an e-mail but I was logged into AW at the time...
