147817 Sunday Match... A Flop.... [Khorne]DawG May 8th, 2000 01:13 PM So WTF.... so far my first experience with the "Big Matchups" wasn't too impressive. Server probs....then 3 or 4 of us were never told the password to get on the new server.... Now mind ya...i'm not blamin any one person but I'm just saying that some of us do have lives and for us to dedicate a certain time frame to this means we need to schedule in the slot... then to have it turn into a bust like that is less than enjoyable... Please tell me what I can do to help in the future so as this doesn't happen again, or as much.. tanx  but hey....this gave me the time to try out for my Khorne-ship.... ------------------ The Destroyer formaly known as WolfMan. "If it moves, KILL IT!!"  147818 Cyborg27 May 8th, 2000 01:31 PM The people who ran the network here have put speed restrictions on pretty much every ethernet jack in the dorm, so that's why the Gate 3 is down, and will be down until next month. I talked with the admin of Gate 2 to see if we could use his server, but the webadmin on Gate 2 wasn't letting me in, so I couldn't change the game type. On top of that, Gate 2 was running some custom maps and I didn't want to make the people on 56K connections download some of those maps. SO we went over to Gate 1, and about that time the clan meeting for Destruction Crew probably had just gotten out and so it pretty much became the clan vs. everyone else. I apologize for the way things turned out, and it's unfortunate that those network nitwits here at my school had to jack up our network. The network situation was beyond my control, but I'm taking steps toward getting around it. Hopefully this won't happen in future matchups. ------------------ "It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum...and I'm all out of gum." -The Immortal Duke Nukem -D3's Domain- [This message has been edited by Cyborg27 (edited May 08, 2000).] 147819 Hickeroar May 8th, 2000 02:15 PM yeah, that was a really big sucky screw up.... ------------------ Ryan Give me a sniper rifle, and I'll take your head off your hands!

Dragonheart Clan 147820 Monster_0 May 8th, 2000 02:26 PM My take on the debacle.........everyone ran screaming in the shadow of my blood curdling presence!!!!!....the cries of high pings and network limitations were desperate attempts at saving ones reputation for another day......Some others just immediatly resorted to whiney sobs and girlish laments, which did nothing to raise their level of cyber-masculinity.....and I therefore expect them to be wearing Fem Skins the next time we happen to meet.

It wasn't your fault that happened. 147823 Monster_0 May 8th, 2000 02:52 PM Well, since I've moved into the new place I'm connecting through AOL at an improved 50,666...which has me pinging in the 350-450 range..... however it seems to be a lot more stable and is more likely to remain steady under 350. During times of light network traffic hours (prior to 6:00 PM ET and after 11:00 PM ET).... I can usually ping steady in the 280-350 range. I couldn't sleep last night so I jumped back on around 2:00AM and was in the 200-230 range!

And I only got about 20 minutes of fragging in 'cause it took so damn long to find another server that worked. I sure as hell hope not every one of your games is like that. ------------------  Xenomorph eats Neo's hand.
