Win xp, check.
Desire to play. Check.
Crappy satellite connection. Check. But I'd be willing to give it another try.

Dial-up is better.  We've found through the years the dial-up is okay as long as you got a decent system and you're not using AOL.

I'm up for it, provided we can get it in before februrary.

...Besides, didn't Dizzy say he's not throwing up another server until the Vista peeps get OP/Dyna stable ?

well, if we have enough peeps... and they agree not to ruin things by running behind gay firewalls and routers, ill do another xp server. For some reason, some people genuinely believe that when everyone drops from a 4-6 player game, that it isnt because of their firewall/router...  ::)

Yeah, I did try that once before. I have a dial up option for when the sat con goes out, But the phone lines out here are about 18 miles of nothing but noise. One can barely talk on them, and if it's raining forget it.

Last time on a good day, I was getting just over 9600. Took two minutes to load up the dyna forum front page and 4 and a half for the Google News page.

I do appreciate the advice though man. Look at it this way though, when Windows 383 finaly comes out with the service pack that allows for Retro gaming, I should have cable, while you guys will have like some kind of Ansible telepathy connection going on.

The only draw back to living in the middle of nowhere.

lol, I understand that about being in the middle of nowhere.  I joke with my friends that if the world ended tomorrow, we wouldn't know about it for about a year.

I could probably find the time to stomp a few of you again.

BTW what's with the "Go Down" button on the top of the page? Has it always said that or has that circus tent wearing gimp (yeah I said it,everyone knows you can't fit a lizard ina tutu) taken over?

Our old SMF 1.x themes had the linktree at the bottom of the page as well as the top. Our new SMF 2.x themes do not (because there is some strange hack in the SMF 2.x code that causes it to be drawn multiple times when only requested once - thus I have not added it to our SMF 2.x themes).

Pestalence misses the linktree at the bottom of the page (so do I).  So instead of correcting simplemacheines code yet again, SFHQ simply enabled the "Go Up", "Go Down" links on the message display to get back to the forum linktree quicker. SMF is releasing a new default theme for SMF 2.x soon. But is is going to amount to a re-write of SMF altogether. When the SMF "Curve" :rolleyes: theme is finally complete, expect SMF to be re-released as SMF3.

Do not expect any work on the forum themes until simplemachines figures out what the heck they are doing with this "Curve" theme. Hopefully they will abandon it and just get on with improving core features that matter.

I know this is not the answer you wanted, but it is the actual reason.

 ;D Lol. Glad to see ya bud.

The "Go Down" links are not anything resulting from a coup by a lizard of ambiguous sexuality. Just a page navigation feature new to our layout with SMF 2 to make up for navigation features we had in SMF 1.x. (SMF being our forums software)

Man, I've missed you around these boards.  This place needs more of your humor.
