Saturdays… *23:00* GMT??

Hey people!!

There’s a bunch of things happening behind the scenes (I’ll explain in an upcoming vid ) but for now, the timeslot is the main issue on my mind.

FINAL FINAL CHANCE TO HAVE YOUR SAY RE: SATURDAY SESSIONS
Saturday Sessions are a probability at this stage, so if you haven’t already,  NOW is the time to vote in the POLL, AND please leave your comments. I can confirm that it WASN’T King of Ping who voted ‘no’ to the change. As I said last week, it’s looking like a done deal, I’m just getting my head around the idea, and making sure this change will be for the long term benefit of the game. The other issue, whilst we’re talking a timeslot that suits everyone more is …

… 23:00 GMT?
The official ‘start time’ has (for the last 5 years!!) been of course, 22:00 GMT. Over the last few months the server has not stared getting busy until around 23:00 GMT, so I can’t help thinking .. shall we change the Session time as well?  Saturdays 23:00 GMT? Why are people showing up ‘late’? Is 23:00 GMT genuinely more convenient, or are people just being sloppy? Yes I realise that if we had more players then we could get back to (at least) 4 vs 4 games starting on the dot at 22:00 GMT, but in the meantime, I don’t want to keep telling everyone the Session starts at 22:00 GMT if people are gonna show up and see 2 people there. The whole *point* of the Weekly AGR Sessions is *organisation*, and no waiting around to start. Everyone shows up at the same time, and BOOM, right into the ACTION.  Check out what ’22:00 GMT’ is in your timezone, in my second post in the POLL, and let me now what you think.

In the meantime, get ready for some TF insanity at this week’s:

What: Weekly AGR Session

Where: tastyspleen.net:26666

When: Sunday 22:00 GMT. Convert this to your timezone here.

Who: Whoever is left in the building.

Why: Because the TF party CONTINUES!

MAP SCHEDULE = bedlam12, oppose1, unscheduled, unscheduled

FTE the official AGR Client:

FTE: FAST-MODE!
Also, if you’re using FTE (which you should be for the full AGR experience!) and want it to be as fast as possible, make sure you select ‘fast mode’ (Options->Graphics Presets) and in addition, at the console, type in:

  • r_waterstyle 1
  • cl_nolerp 1

This should exactly match ezquake in terms of responsiveness. Please confirm, in the comments below.

AGR VENTRILLO SERVER
[NOTE:  Ventrillo is being phased out. Here’s a link on how to use AGR Voice2Demo]
We use a voice chat ventrillo for voice chat during AGR games. Download it, install it, and connect to 78.129.193.9, port 4298, AGR (Red+Blue) channels. Password is sent to those on the AGR Mailing List, but if you ask nicely during the game, someone might help you out.

DEMOS
All games are recorded, only the best are uploaded, in the comments section below. All demos are available upon request
