Warmup game?

[DaveShack]

Anyone want to play a warmup game? Someone could host a BTS pitboss and we could hone our MP skills while waiting for the game to start.

I'm interested in a warmup game.

 

[peter grimes]

Sign me up! I'm anxious to learn about all the new features (since I've only played vanilla so far )

oh - I can't host pitboss. Home compy is mac, and work compy is managed by an IT fascist

 

[Tinkerbell]

Sounds like an good idear, I'm in.

 

[Unionfield]

I'll do it.

 

[James009]

Sure, I'll play.

 

[Unionfield]

By the by, when does the actual Demogame begin?

 

[DaveShack]

I'd guess there will still be a couple of weeks of setup. A lot of the stuff we organizers talked about as individuals before making the announcement will now need to be ratified in team-based votes.

 

[peter grimes]

Great! 6 people so far

Can anyone here host?

 

[James009]

I actually attempted hosting a Pitboss game last year and it failed miserably due to computer and network problems. So, I'm out as host.

 

[Tinkerbell]

I could give hosting a try. Just remember my Windows machine is not 24/7 up and running.

 

[Domino369]

Oh wow, I'll play. Won't host though because with my lack of video card and onboard graphics, my comp is too prone to crashes from graphical overloads.

Also, there are times (like in the last 2 days) when my parents shut off my internet connection for seemingly no reason =[

I could host.

 

[HUSch]

I´d play gladly a warmup game.
