Well, my 15th birthday is coming up, and, well, everybody on the boards is invited (sorta).

Basically, my actual birthday is on the 31st, but I can't have my party then, so it's on the 30th. Basically, everybody on the Ares boards is invited, just be on GR from 7:00 pm to 12:00 midnight EST on the 30th. We can chat, play games, etc.. And you lucky people don't have to send me presents! (Ya see, I think the custom of presents origionated with parties as payment for the food and stuff, but I'm not giving you guys any food, so you don't have to give me presents) You guys can also go buy some chips and ice cream or something to make it more partyish for ya, I guess. Anyway, see you guys on GR.

God damnit! I'll be asleep then. Maybe I'll get up at 4am, then. What's your time zone? I might be able to attend if it's 9 hrs behind CET... That would be cool. If the Telekom doesn't F*ck up my DSL yet again... Posted Image

Well, the time is given in EST.
I think I will be able to come.
I don't think I'll remember.

I'll be in the middle of a road trip by that time, but one of the guys I'm with will have his powerbook G4 with Ricochet wireless access. I'll try to be there.

Are you having a real party at your house? If so, then is Nik attending? If nik is attending, can I come with?

Well, he's invited, I don't know if he's attending yet (he probably is). If he is, you can come along too, I guess. I don't know how we could organize it, though. I guess I could mail his invitation along with a thing that says you're coming too and to make arrangements with you to come with him or something.

The 30th? Damn. I'm afraid I'll be trudging about on some mountain or other with a bunch of guys, a priest, and a heavy pack on my back. You don't want to ask.

Well, have a great one anyway. 15's the age where stuff begins to get really interesting- crack open the 6-packs, and rouse the neighbourhood!

Anyway, I'll see if there's anything we can do with net levels and such for you Posted Image

BTW, are you planning on getting Deus Ex? I'd really like to play that with you, as well as Ares and Bolo.

Hmm... a large UT slaughter could be fun too.
Darkk: How do you set up a Marathon game w/o a LAN? I've never bothered trying. We should all make M2 levels and play together in honor of MInv.

I had suggested we expose Mag to a sneak preview of the M:Inv net levels, but that might not be possible.

As for your question Pallas, I think what you need to do to network Marathon/2/Infinity is fake an appletalk network over TCP/IP or modem-to-modem (I've got DSL and am not paying long distance, so modem-to-modem isn't happening). I THINK you can do this by connecting to the server using "server IP address" in the chooser, but I'm not sure. The only way I know that really works (in theory) is a shareware modem-to-modem network hack that came with the Trilogy CD. It won't work with DSL, its performance over long distance would be next to nill, and there's no way in h*** most of us are giving out our phone numbers online, so I think we're not going to do that.

Hehe. I love the way exploded corpses fly along the walls in Marathon. I've got the trilogy, so if we can figure out internet multiplayer, BRING IT ON. > Posted Image

Cotton Mouse here—(I waiting for my new e-mail address to open, it takes 2 days. I changed my address to "black@windows-sucks.com", so I can't get my pass yet.

Mag, how many pins does the PPC with SCSI have? I need to know which ones to bring!

I'll be there 8 pm EST...I will get up at 2 am.

My brain will be gone, but still...it will be nice to meet you all!

Can we also play a bit of Ares? I've only found 1 online game so far, (it was a newbie, me terran, him ishiman) and I kicked his butt... Unfortunately, I dont have Marathon (atm), so I cant play that...I only have Starcraft and Ares installed right now. How about someone downloading ST:Elite Force the demo? I could play that...

CYA all...hopefully. Posted Image
