01/07/2004 03:28 #22 nadir cormac no posts : 1 lans : 5 now , how to haul my phat ass pc down to college

01/08/2004 02:05 #23 vega Vincent Pasley Can we listen to Michael Jackson while playing posts : 30 lans : 9 I am glad to see that everyone is getting excited about the up and coming lan of the year GL8... I could cry a white tear. But for me this lan only goes as far as boards, and room101. Wish i could be their for the frags but no i must do exams. Have fun killing n all. Hope it runs smooth.

01/08/2004 02:24 #24 SyxPak John Coleman Net Tech posts : 278 lans : 22 site administrator Hopefully I'll seqeeze in another at the end of march just before I move to Dublin. There'll be the usual big one over the summer again, should ahve the server fully kitted out by then with a 3rd managed switch for trunked goodness

01/08/2004 17:42 #25 SyxPak John Coleman Net Tech posts : 278 lans : 22 site administrator http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=133951 I'll put together a pack with Cube and Quad and as many maps as I can find for the LAN.

01/12/2004 02:34 #26 SyxPak John Coleman Net Tech posts : 278 lans : 22 site administrator Who's bringing them? Think Robbo has pledged the services of his PS2

01/12/2004 18:25 #27 quetzal dave Ownerer. clan : irish kake posts : 143 lans : 11 Drake has said that he will bring pro-evolution soccer 3 and maybe nfs:u for the ps2, tho the latter one is kinda pointless as both I and mistakill have the better port on the pc

01/12/2004 20:06 #28 SyxPak John Coleman Net Tech posts : 278 lans : 22 site administrator Robbo says' it's a bit pants on the PS2, you have to do a load of Millenium Falcon mods to it and play for ages before you can actually start modding the engine etc. And the handling of the cars are all the same. Stil, it'll be fun for a run about.

01/12/2004 20:34 #29 quetzal dave Ownerer. clan : irish kake posts : 143 lans : 11 I said the pc port was better, I and yourbrother both have it, no need for ps2, we also have the unnofficial lan patch, read more carefully

01/12/2004 21:07 #30 SyxPak John Coleman Net Tech posts : 278 lans : 22 site administrator I was agreeing with you. As in there's no real need for Drake to bring his copy, unless he wants to. Though the LAN patch raises questions of stability and whether everyone will be able to play flawlessly. I also have the game on PC, just haven't brought it home yet.

14/01/2004 15:18 #31 Giblet Paul posts : 29 lans : 9 Me and a few mates may head down, but first, we're going down on friday, and leaving Saturday. Do we have to pay full price?

21/01/2004 22:32 #33 SyxPak John Coleman Net Tech posts : 278 lans : 22 site administrator So far only 5 people have paid into the account. Could ye please do it over the next two days and post here or on the GL board about it.

Come to think of it, Friday night, the Waterford Massif won't actually be in Galway yet, so you're sound
