While We Wait: Writer's Block & Other Lame Excuses

[Kraznaya]

Fixed after the first hour and half or so, so only really annoying for the people who woke up in the middle of the night to play.

Well i guess I will wait on Diablo 3. I'll give it a couple of weeks and wait for your reviews.

Act 1 is free to play for anyone with a battle.net account.

F
Act 1 is free to play for anyone with a battle.net account.

Well I do have one of those. Thanks.

 

[Tycho]

Tell me how it goes as well, Diablo looks interesting to say the least at the moment.

 

[Angst]

It's actually a very fun game. The servers are down right now, but will be back up in a moment I think.

 

[Crezth]

So (part of) #nes played like a 2 hour and 20 minute game of Risk II tonight, moderated by flyingchicken. The players (and their monikers):

MjM as Mojamos
Luckymoose as Iron Union of Fascist Cats
Crezth as Rome
Bill3000 as Elpidos
Terrance as South African Union of Defensive Initiatives (or S.A.U.D.I.)

Since loudbot was the one to assign me my moniker, to play the part of "Rome" Dachs added that I had to take Southern Europe.

Spoiler Turn 1 :

Then Terrance vanished and to replace him as S.A.U.D.I. we brought in qoou.

Spoiler Turn 2 :

Spoiler Turn 3 :

Spoiler Turn 4 :

Spoiler Turn 5 :

Then Bill3000 had to go (what a jerk), so we decided that qoou was the winner.

 

[Dachs]

At no point in the game did the South African Union of Defense Initiatives ever come close to South Africa.

so, downloaded mIRC and still can't figure out how to get to the #nes channel... Found one but there were only 2 INACTIVE people on it... I was the only active dude...

 

[Dachs]

Yeah, #nes is full of active people right now so I dunno what your issue is

server: razorvine.selfip.net
channel: #nes

 

[Gem Hound]

@warpig and ftr?

Edit: Ok. I now have a list of razorvine channels... How am I going to find it in the thousands of chats?????
Edi2: 6585 chats...

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Launch day preparations??

Also, this is my new NESing theme


Link to video.

Reminds me of the NESer theme music thread... remember that one anyone?

Server's down again apparently.

Set your server to razorvine.selfip.net and your channel to #nes (as fc said), and you should be good to go.

 

[Gem Hound]

Set your server to razorvine.selfip.net

Problem is, I can't find it...

 

[MjM]

Problem is, I can't find it...

On mIRC, go to file -> select server -> click the add button on the right side of the window that pops up -> second line says IRC Server:, there add razorvine.selfip.net. Then add the server, name it NES or whatever will help you remember its the server for neschat. Click the connect button in the upper left corner that looks like a lightning bolt once you have added and correctly selected the 'nes' (or whatever you name it) server from the select server list.

Thankyou, I honestly never would have figured that out. I'm in now.

 

[MjM]

No problem, mIRC is difficult to use if you've never been on an IRC program. I know it was for me.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Good call MjM, I forgot how weird it is finding that tab in mIRC.

 

[Terrance888]

Sorry for any missed orders or problems last night. The Secret Police Of Nazi Tiger Mom Strikes Again!

The good news is, by observing her methods I will be in a much better position to roleplay authoritarian states.

 

[Luckymoose]

I would have beaten qoou if that RISK game had continued.

 

[Angst]

Reminds me of the NESer theme music thread... remember that one anyone?

Yup. I wonder what my theme was. I think the thread is due a restart rather than a revive. Any takers?

 

[Kraznaya]

Just finished D3. The best endorsement I can give for the game is that my party planned to finish Act 2 tonight, and because of the addictiveness we ended up going through all four acts in essentially one sitting (since the launch of the game was fked due to server issues).
