When: Saturday 26th October 2019, 23:00 GMT. Convert this to your timezone here. note: Arrive early so as to not miss out on the pre-match entertainment

Where: tastyspleen.net:26666

Who: AGR fans, TF fans, CTF fans, CustomTF Fans, MegaTF fans, Thunderwalker fans, any fan of Teams and Fortresses.

Why: If you have to ask, I’ll assume you’ve never heard of Rock2ober – so stop reading,  and check out the Rock2ober FAQ. Back? Ok, let’s proceed:

 

Men and women of the Quakeworld,

Rock2ober 2019 is upon us!  Once again, we attempt to FILL a server with 32 players, all gathered at the same time, in the same place, to battle it out at the worlds biggest Q1 Team Fortress event. Whether you’re a devoted AGR Maniac, a critic, or if you just love your Team Fortress anyway you can get it, this is your chance to make history, and experience Rock2ober in all its Gory Glory. Before we go ANY further, get your nostalgic heart pumping by watching these (now ‘ancient’) promos for Rock2ober 2010, and Rock2ober 2011.

(wow)

The Weekly AGR Sessions have going for 10 YEARS STRAIGHT. We’ve cracked 32 people before, and we can do it again. To experience that VERY special 32 player “full server” feeling, I’m once again reaching out to the wider world of TF players. The question is – do you want to be part of it? Maybe you who are reading this prefer Vanilla TF, Classic CustomTF, MegaTF, CTF, or TWCTF, but for an event this big, I know  all TF players, of ALL genres will want to be there. Yes, AGR is ‘different’ but hey, the core idea is ‘Blue defends flag’ / ‘Red captures flag’, so anyone who has ever played Team Fortress will be up to speed in no time. So, don’t miss out on a rare opportunity to play in a 32 player game in 2019, ok? YOU can help make this happen by spreading the word about Rock2ober 2018 to EVERY Quake player you know, current and retired.  Awesome stuff, and once their blood starts pumping, tell ’em to sit right down, and feast on the blockbuster Rock2ober 2015 Movie part1, and Part 2!!

VOICE CHAT
Yes discord is popular in 2019, BUT but AGR has built in voip, and voice chat is recorded into the demos as well! Your grandkids can hear you play!

DEMOS
Demos will be available for download, check the comments section below (those Registered get on the AGR Mailing List and get an email notification), and the AGRMania youtube channel for details to follow.

ROCK2OBER 2019 – DOWNLOADS
There will be a number of downloads, so connect to the server early!

ROCK2OBER 2019 SPECIAL PREMATCH EVENT
The pipers will be there, AND MORE!! Get in early!!

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS
Since Rock2ober will be held a week later than has been the case in years gone by, I believe daylight savings will not be an issue, I think that some changes are happening this week in Europe, anyway please check the link above.

WHAT IF THE SERVER IS FULL?
In the chance we DO get 32 players(!), it *probably* won’t stay at 32 for long, so just reconnect.

EXCUSES DESTROYED
“Ok, but I don’t have Quake anymore, and don’t know / remember where to get the client!”. Go here.

“I’m not really an AGR player” and/or  “It’s been so long, I dont remember how to play!”. Go here.

“Ok, but I’m married, and my wife doesn’t approve of me playing computer games.” Go here.

 

MAP SCHEDULE
1. Pre Match Entertainment and speeches

2. rock2 (65 minutes)

3. intermission (10 minutes)

4. rock2 (65 minutes) (Team damage off, mirror damage off)

Let’s make this happen people. If you love Quake1 team fortress, and you crave BIG, team-orientated, action-packed games which leave you utterly exhausted, and ecstatic and exhilarated, keep October 26th 23:00GMT free!

Looking forward to seeing you there,

OneManClan
