Gonna make it 3pm EDT…I realize this is very early, but hopefully the settings will keep the game slow enough for everyone to get in and have a chance.

Farewell to Jackal

by in July 26th, 2002 
No Comment

I met Jon (Jackal) in my third Tradewars game on a small board. We didn’t say much to each other he knew I was a newbie..gave me some pointers and we went our separate ways. Many games later we met again and played and flamed each other mercifully for about a year on the bbs Evolution. Then we struck up a friendship. We found out we graduated from the same university and a kinship evolved. ( GO UCONN Huskies). Jon had a strong personality but the kindest heart of anyone I every met. If someone was in need of anything..Jon was there for them, no questions asked. But Jon had a hot temper and could flame with the best of them! (was on the receiving end of those too). I will miss the phones calls Jon made to Guard and I. He would call just to check up and make sure everything was ok.

I very seldom played with Jon but played many games against him. He loved to build those figs! He wasn’t the best player but he it was a game he loved. And he did play it well. His style was not like mine and we clashed when we did play together but it was his style and it worked. Even though Guard and I retired from Tradewars there are a few warriors we miss. And this fallen warrior will be very missed by Guard and I.

Jon now that you have landed on Stardock for the final time…remember our thoughts will always be with you. May you rest in peace.

Third Time is the Charm…

Due to the fact that I could not connect to the administration port on the TWGS last night (due to our Cisco Pix Firewall in the office), Fred Wreck’s was not banged, yet again. 🙁

However, third time is the charm. Today at 6:00pm EDT (while I’m still at work and near the server), I will open Fred Wreck’s for all to enjoy. Again, there are a few edit changes to try and make it last longer than a couple days, heh.

Provider Problems — Hopefully Temporary

by in July 26th, 2002 
No Comment

You may be experiencing some slow connections tonight and possibly into tomorrow and the next couple of days. Our main Internet pipe provider for our ISP is currently overloading their DS3 circuit that our T1 connection is running on. Things just got bad tonight because of the cable modem and DSL subscribers that they just acquired over the weekend. It’s a college town, lots of kiddies downloading pr0n and mp3z…you know the deal.

Basically, we’re working to get this all sorted out, possibly going to be switching over to another connection as soon as we possibly can. We may be switched to another DS3 circuit, but that remains to be seen at this point. We’re bitching up a storm…hopefully things will be fixed VERY soon.

Sorry for any inconveniences folks. Bear with us…we’re all in this together..

Fred Wreck’s House Party Over & Rebangs!

by in July 23rd, 2002 
No Comment

Corp [1] has won Fred Wreck’s House Party! They dominated this game from the start and it should have been closed earlier.

This time around I’m going to make some changes. 😉

Game will rebang tonight at 11pm EDT. Sectors have been up’d to 20,000 instead of 5,000. Corp limit will be 1 player per corp. So this is meant to be a solo escapade this time. Death limit will be 2…game will close in 2 days to new players.

Trying to make it a little more interesting. 😉

Again:
Game bangs at 11pm EDT

This Weekend..

This Weekend..
Posted on 07.12.2002 @ 04:07:03 PM EDT by [Fuseblown]

I’m going to visit Bad Girl and Guardian this weekend…this means that if the server goes down, I won’t be around to put it back up. 🙁

Cross your fingers…

Next weekend I will be tearing it apart and finding a solution to the freezing problem…once I get it fixed I’ll have a League game starting as well as some rebangs and new games coming up once it is stable.

Again, hopefully nothing happens, if something does, I apologize in advance…and I’ll put it back up at NOON EDT on Monday!

Take care and have a good weekend. 😉
