March 2005 Gaming

[D-Bone]

March 26th. We need to game that weekend. Who can make it?

And, go.

[Kyraath]

at this time I will have to say maybe. My spring break is 14-18 so this will be one week after my break is over so I have no idea how busy I'll be until it's closer to that time

[Dante]

Our spring break is the same week as Ky's. And I totally have the weekend of the 19th-20th open. The 26th is sketchy for me right now.

[Malice]

What is wrong with your guys' spring break schedule? Its supposed to be the week after that, COME ON!!! Well, that IS during my spring break so I will be able to make it.

[Kyraath]

so we could do this at the beginning of your spring break instead of the end of it that way it'll interesect with ours. I could definitely do it at the end of my break, say the 19th

[Malice]

Yes, I like that idea too but Dbone's parents are in town so he can't for sure.

[D-Bone]

:cry:

[Kyraath]

well, i guess we call it the 26th then and call it a most likely for me joining in. If nothing else i'll be able to play most of the day and might have to leave for part of the day or something, but would then be back later.

[D-Bone]

Well, lets just see what the rest of the responses are. If more people can make it on that weekend before I'll just have to miss one. The good of the many out-weigh the good of one.

[Ghost]

At this point I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to make the 19th. We are cutting over a phone system on the 18th, so more than likely things will still be all broken the next day that we have to fix. The 26th looks better, but there is always the possibility that I may have to work that weekend to fix stuff we had to hack together the weekend before. Right now my work calendar is fully booked till mid April. :(

What a good little communist you are. :)

They are going to pay you extra for all that work aren't they? Cause working overtime is for the birds.

On a more on topic note, all weekends are really equally bad/good for me. In reallity I should do nothing but homework every free second that i'm not sleeping, but I don't want to. So you all pick a day and I'll just show up! Yah!!

[Kyraath]

hey, malice's days are starting to sound like mine. I'll be able to play or work around it or whatever, I just need some relax non-homework time so count me in

[D-Bone]

Good news guys, my parents decided to surprise me for my birthday and showed up this weekend. So, that means either weekend works for me. Ross, is that first weekend really a no go? You can't get it all installed and perfect the day before? Come on, I thought you were better than that... ;)

[Ghost]

Uhhh...No. I think it would be possible for us to install a whole phone system in a week if we had all the information up front. Unfortunately we are so busy that we are having to design the whole call flow and dial plan on the fly. I'm actually pretty sure that it is going to be very, very difficult to have the system ready to go by when they need to move into their new building. We'll probably need to work after hours a few times to be able to get everything done. Since we are at this point cutting over on Friday, there is a pretty good chance that I'll have to do at least something on that Saturday. Hopefully it will be a small thing and only take a few hours, but if everything goes to hell I could conceivably be working all weekend. :(

[Dante]

The 26th is a for sure no-go for me. That's Easter weekend and Misty has retained all my services for the entire weekend. The 19th & 20th is the only good weekend for me this month.

[Cheesus]

I'm probably going to be out of town that weekend...

[Malice]

I'm probably going to be out of town that weekend...

Which weekend?

[D-Bone]

Ok, since Dante can only make the 19th and Ross maybe will only miss a couple hours if all goes according to plan, it sounds that the 19th is the best choice for success for eveyones schedule. Cheesus, hopefully you meant you'll be out of town for the 26th cause you can't miss 2 in a row! ;) So as of right now, lets call the 19th set in stone for gaming. Hopefully most of us can make it.

[Dread]

Well you can count me OUT if Dante is coming!

[{OOE}Death]

So the 19th at my place then? Either way I'm in.

[Dante]

Well you can count me OUT if Dante is coming!
That's too bad because I could have used another target. 8)

[D-Bone]

So the 19th at my place then? Either way I'm in.

I think we are doing it at Kyraath's again. That really seemed to work better for Malice and I regarding our travel plans. Its easier to just do 1 trip up and down. I hope thats OK with everyone else.

[{OOE}Death]

I just wasn't sure about Jason's schedule. Like I said either way I'm in. Lets get a list of games to play so I can get the lappy ready. HL2, UT2k4 and what else?

[Kyraath]

there might have been some confusion on my previous post. I will definitely be available on the 19th and I'm looking forward to playing. I do still care about everything, I think i was just a little cranky this morning when I first got to work so I'm sorry if my post sounded strange. I look forward to taking it easy on that day and cooling off a little from schoolstress and workstress and moneystress and all the other annoyances that comes from interacting with the world :wink:

[D-Bone]

I would say in addition to HL2 and UT2004 some Call of Duty is always good. Maybe we can try some other UT2004 mods this time like Jailbreak or Deathball. I'll also be bringing the 2nd processor for the server up there so we'll be operating in full dual mode this time. :)

[Cheesus]

19th should be good for me, the 26th is a no go.

[D-Bone]

19th should be good for me, the 26th is a no go.

Fantastic! Can I assume the Chode-meister will also be attending?

[Kyraath]

sweeet, this is going to be a great session. I also have another friend that might be coming to the session. Helton from WoW may be coming to the session also, he just has to get a daypass. It'll be fun to whoop up on him too.

[Malice]

Wow, this is going to be great. Assuming I live long enough to make it to game day it should be a very rejuvinating experience. Thank the lord!!

[{OOE}Death]

On a side note me2drink now works at cp. I'll see if I can get the corruption to spread to him as well.

[Malice]

Hell yeah!! The more the better!! However, Kyraath, it looks like we should spend friday wiring the basement for power if we can instead of gaming. But hey, it'll be worth it!!

[Dante]

I was just talking with Mrs. Dante and she made the mention about having game day here at our place. :shock:

She's leaving town Thursday with all the mini-Dante's and will be gone till Sunday. This is a very rare opportunity of having game day at Dante's place and also gives everyone a chance to see the new Dante Pad.

What do you guys think of that?

[D-Bone]

Based on our conversation this morning, I think we will still have it at Kyraath's house. Less chance for confusion this late in the planning process. Thanks for the offer though Dante! :)

[{OOE}Death]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news..... I may have to work saturday. Go live is friday and things may not be done by saturday. We shall see. :mad:

[D-Bone]

We understand dude, hopefully things go smooth for you guys, even if its a half day, you should still show up. If so, you think it would be first half or second half? We could arrange the play schedule to save some of the games for when you are there such as ut2204 and cod. Just let us know.

[{OOE}Death]

I'll know for my self better tomorrow and Friday. I'll let Ross speak for himself.

[MasterChoda]

That sinks Death; I hope u can make it???... I have good news, I'm a go for Saturday. Cya all on Game Day!

[{OOE}Death]

As of right now I'll be able to make it. Ross is a probably. I'm waiting for the wiring guys to get done then I have a few more phones to light up and punch some faxes down. Oh yeah the existing servers are on their way.

[D-Bone]

Excellent news. Ross needs to be there, we both have to run benchmarks on our systems head to head! :)

[{OOE}Death]

it's oficial. We will both be there tomorrow.
