Just a reminder that this match is coming up in less than one hour!! It starts at 8:00 P.M. EST. I'll be in Brood War #dvdtalk on battle.net in about a half an hour. Anyone is free to come! Get ready to rumble!

KrackerBox 03-03-02 07:32 PM

hey, sorry i cna't make it. at work right now, and have a bunch of stuff to do for this next week. i'll just post a message where whenever im gonna play sc so that u guys know. how about u guys do the same, and occasionally check channel dvdtalk.

Outlaw 03-04-02 01:33 PM

Whoo! What an action packed match, you people that didn't come really missed out.........


.......wait, no one showed up :lol:. I guess it was too short notice for most people or they weren't interested. I was waiting with a friend of mine but eventually we just did a 2v2 with some of his friends and beat them, which was pretty cool.

Canis Firebrand 03-04-02 02:17 PM

I'd be interested. How about setting up a match for this Friday or Saturday evening?

That way everyone has a bit of time to prepare.

Just come up with a time, channel to meet in on Battle.net and a map to play. I'd assume everyone has Brood War, but you can't be certain, so it might not be a good idea to say Brood War only. Though that would be my preference.

I haven't played StarCraft in like a year or so. I better start playing to get used to the game again.

RolloTomasi 03-04-02 04:02 PM

I might be free, I'll be interested in a game this weekend. BW or Starcraft? I think I lost my SC disc...

KrackerBox 03-04-02 05:43 PM

lets try to do BW

belboz 03-04-02 06:27 PM

This weekend might be okay. We did a few Thursday night UT sessions a ways back and those were fairly successful. And Thursday nights are definitely better for me...

Outlaw 03-04-02 06:53 PM

ok, thurs is good for me too, how about in the evening. Either BW or SC whichever everyone has.

KrackerBox 03-05-02 05:14 AM

k thursday is good 4 me too. i'm done w/my exams by them, nice!

Canis Firebrand 03-05-02 07:15 AM

Hmmm.. Thursday night Brood War.


sounds very tempting.. I may be able to get a friend to play as well.. so there are two spots. We could do a 4v4 or 8v8(if it can handle that) if need be.

What time and channel should we meet in?

FiveO 03-05-02 05:16 PM

I'll have to install SC and BW on my new computer I got last week...but if you need an extra player I'm in.

I haven't played in a month or two...but I should be able to get the feel back after a few minutes :)

KrackerBox 03-06-02 05:38 AM

sweet. lets rumble!


channel: dvdtalk (one word), east
day: this tursday
time: 8pm central, 9ET, 6PT



sound good?

KrackerBox 03-06-02 05:39 AM

oh, and anyone that wants to come, just come, the more the better. we can play seperate games if need be. but 4v4 sounds good.

Canis Firebrand 03-06-02 07:21 AM

Sounds good to me.. I'll be there and bringing a friend with me. So thats 2 people to play.

Outlaw 03-06-02 03:04 PM

yep, I'm ready. Make sure you guys show up this time! ;)

Did we ever decide if we're playing Brood war or starcraft? The chat rooms are on different servers for each game.

KrackerBox 03-06-02 06:01 PM

lets go bw

RolloTomasi 03-06-02 07:07 PM

I'm in. So what is that, 4?

FiveO 03-06-02 09:26 PM

I agree...lets go BW.

I'll install SC and BW tonight.


See you there :) 8pm sharp.

Hopefully I won't get called into work.

belboz 03-07-02 03:58 AM

Okay, I found SC and installed it. Logged on, played a couple games, got my ass handed to me twice. I was actually on the winning team once, but at the end of the game, I had like 1 building left and it was on fire. Did I mention I haven't played in over a year? I didn't find my BW disc, but I'll keep looking for it. Six is a little early for me so I might be a bit late, but I'm pretty sure I'll be there.

KrackerBox 03-07-02 05:11 AM

heh, sounds like we getting a nice large group of people, if this works out, maybe we can make it a weekly thing, whoever can make it.

FiveO 03-07-02 07:12 AM

My install went fine.

Do we want to play a "money" map as they are called? Or just a regular map.

What's a money map?

FiveO 03-07-02 08:53 AM

A money map is nothing more than a huge map with basically unlimited resources. Some strategic water but each area has an entrance and a large area to build on. They work great for 4x4 play.

Sooo...its more about the fighting than struggling for resources.

And...with lots of resources you can build any and all units...and lots of them :)

These are my favorite maps to play. It really gets down to the strategy of units vs. units and not like I said struggling for resources.

I'll play either though...but I find these to be fun. Especially when you take on 5 or 6 computer zerg by yourself. They love to "rush".

I transferred over a great money map from my old computer last night.

We can try it...if you gents don't like it we'll do a regular map.


Just an idea.
