    Yea, I dragged my name to the channel but I couldn't hear you guys. I did see the 4 of you in the channel and I joined it as well, but I couldn't hear you guys even though i could definitely see the icon next to your names change when you talk.

    Cool, that is 5 people so far. With luck a few more will show up and the server will fill up in no time.



    UPDATE: Four of us in here so far. Carlos, Hockeymass, Rookie, & me.


    Join the fun.

    It was great to have you 650. Sorry your 6990s drivers were acting up. Maybe next time.

    Not as many people as last time but we still had fun.

    We learned it isn't good if we all have NBR clan tags, it seems to scare away all the other players. So we removed our tags, but I think it was too late since we already lost a lot players.

    I will be back on Saturday around 10:30pm eastern 7:30 pacific if anyone is interested.

    So if we play on the same server, we kill off the nametags? D;
    Might play some BF3 this weekend but between Skyrim and Minecraft it will be a tough choice.

    Also having a blast with Goldeneye on Xbox 360.
    Its not like the N64 game but its not horrible like Goldeneye: Rogue Agent.
    That was pretty s**tty.

    I'll be playing SKyrim as well.

    I'm bored of BF3 after only reaching level 14. And I'm really tired of the IRNV scopes and other moronic perks in this game. Endless mortors? IRNV/4x scopes with extended mag on the M249? It's just really stupid. Explosive shotgun shells? Being sniped across the map by shotguns? Yeah it's getting old at light speed fast.

    How is he ??????? in everyone else's cheerios? He has a right to an opinion. And considering he paid for the game, I can understand the frustration.

    Because it's constant. This is a thread about our server. Everyone is talking about how much fun they had last night and he just comes in and goes "nope, game sucks, not playing it ever again". We have a discussion thread for that crap.

    ANYWAYS, I have to say, using the mumble server makes it a lot more fun. The trash talking and coordination adds a lot to it.

    Haha, yea that was fun. At one point I had unloaded all my ammo trying to shoot at a chopper, and so when a tank came by all I had was a pistol. I was standing beside it just unloading on the tank side. When I ran out of pistol rounds, I just started knifing it :p like that was really going to do any good lol :eek:

    I will be gone until Thanksgiving day. Someone else should organize a game between now and then.

    Anyone up for Thanksgiving night Black Friday count down?

    I am thinking 6pm-12am Pacific (9pm - 3am Eastern).

    Any takers?

    Should put you in the perfect spot to catch all the online sales early!

    Forgot who it was but I shot at least two people out of helicopters last night.

    Also got a heli with a stinger.

    And shot someone with a shotgun with slugs and a x8 scope. Muahahaha

    (And I vote for tdm when there is a distinct lack of many peoples! Its much more fun to shoot people in the face that way!)

    I think that was me, in almost every situation you were referring too.

    I agree on the team DM. The next time there are only a few of us I can switch it to DM.

    I wanted to Welcome our new Server admins Hakira and Shobster.

    They have already downloaded the software and are ready to handle map requests and kick out weirdos.

    Thanks Shobster and Hakira.

    Lol, I just accept everyone. Figure they got me from somewhere. The ones I really like playing with though are the NBR people. I think all my friends are on the NBR list. I havn't scrubbed it though.

    I had a good time on the server last night with Philiphan. We were on opposite teams killing each other. The best was talking to each other while we knifed each other. :D Good times. Thanks for the mumble experience DEagleson! :D +1 It was us and Halo22solo or something like that. Though he wasn't on Mumble :(

    We filled the server again tonight even though there was nothing scheduled! Started off with me and agolf just screwing around, then shob showed up, then ht, and it snowballed from there.

    Really seems like you only need about 4-6 people playing for a little bit before it starts to get noticed and really picks up. Also now that we have a couple admins around we can take map/mode requests... started the night off as squad rush and it evolved into conquest, and then back into squad tdm.

    I liked listening to you guys flying the jets together. Even when I was eves dropping, I couldn't shake you when I tried my hand at the jets. That was a lot of fun to listen to. Sounded like real pilots "...Flares out..." :p I need to get better at the jets, and choppers are crazy hard for me. Gotta put in some hours.
