Do you guys have a server that you regularly play on or just the  'net?

Yes, we have a practice server.  Also we find other servers on the net and gang up on them....Oh no not the A! guys, I'm getting off this server, they always tear me apart with that telefrag  :transloc:, flack cannon :flak:, mini gun :mg-rt: stuff.  We use MSN Messenger and game voice to communicate.  That's the real edge that we have, is that we communicate a lot when we play.  You can get game voice for $26.18 from buy.com.

They sometimes have good prices, and shipping is sometimes free.  I've only made one order through them, and that was for my gamevoice, Phil ordered his through them as well, so... they work.  As for who is my favorite?  Probably Newegg.com, they have good variety, usually the best prices, 3 day shipping that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, the more you buy the more they discount the shipping.  I usually average $5 per item for my orders.  Other than that I check pricewatch before I make an order.  The main thing is that I don't have to go to DIT. :x

yeah so far...  Andy... Um, I mean ZWarrior doesent whant people knowin the ip address because it is his pc running the server and that is a security risk to his pirsonal files and pc's. So, thats why he dosent whant everyone to know...

Only A! Clan knows the IP Address..

Sorry, but as soon as he can get someone else to run the server then i think thats the way its going to stay :)

Sorry, I was out of town all week, and the Hotel wanted $.75 to make a phone call, or $9.95/day to use the Internet they provide.  That and we were ministering an average of 13-14 hours per day.  I am beat.

Anyway, the deal with the servers is that we are currently running them off a non-commercial connection, so we have to be very careful about the bandwidth.  But the good news is that we are preparing to move the equipment to a commercial connection that is graciously being donated to us.    It will have a dedicated IP, and fixed bandwidth.  I am not sure what the speed is though.  It will tka e about a week once I get the process started, so our servers would be down during that period.

I was going to call you today during the day, but it seems that Cox has once again messed up my connection, and I can't connect to the server at home to check my email! :swear:

And of course, as you know, right after I posted that, Cox fixed whatever problem it was that they had.  Sheesh!

All this single word posting reminded me of the old word association  game.  So... I started a thread for it.

Here is the link.

I got me 516 kills last night on the server.  Time to make it a bit tougher.

ZW...I'll email you the screen shot.

I genereally make 1 Tuesday a month.  But Monday and Tuesdays are the nights that I have meetings and the such as well, so it gets tied up.  But, I have been there. I often come in later in the evening too.

Right now, you can look for me there from ~4pm - 5pm. Every weekday.
