    Clay - We had a great turnout. Alot of AK and the game is a whole lot of fun. Speaking for myself, I had no clue what I was doing or how to do anything - but it was fun just running around blowing things up.

    Had a blast, but we need not give Gunny a sniper rifle again.

    Great night of good old fashioned fragging! The game kicks some serious butt.

    How about we make this a weekly event? Same time next week? Thursday night?

    An old school blast! I'm definitely up for playing regularly; Thursdays are as good as any for me. Great to see everyone turn out for some fragging. I'll definitely be picking up the full game when it's released--turning the textures down a hair took a lot of strain off my GeForce 6600 with no noticeable decline in graphics quality.

    I have an ATI 1900XT and I'm running at 1680X1050. I was seeing some drops into the 20s in FPS with has high in the 50s... but I have it on the "High" setting. I think I'm going to have to drop a few settings myself to try and keep everything above the 30 mark.

    Depending on how much gaming I end up doing this winter on the PC, I might just upgrade my Video card to an NVIDIA model. I don't really need DX10 because I'm still using XP - but the extra graphics HP won't hurt.

    I could definitely see AK getting into ladder competition on TWL with this game. Been ages since we competed and this game would seem a good fit.

    I would love to. I'd be happy to coordinate our return to the ladders if needed. I probably won't have time to "coach" this time around, though.

    Think of the SoW as the general manager. That's never a good role to combine with the head coach. You of all people should be familiar with that concept--see Holmgren, Mike.

    Sorry for the change of topic.

    Are you coming up for Celtic Fest this year?

    Oh, and I posted a response on your blog for the NAACP which never made it to publish. Are you filtering me?!? Et tu, Brute?

    All depends on when it is....

    Did you remember to fill the word verification on the comment page? That's the only sort of filtering that my blog has, as far as I know. It's completely unmoderated--the last bastion of truly free speech!

    (And thank you for the opportunity to live up to my signature!)

    Definitely a great turn out and a night of fun. Good to see alot of AK in game that don't play wow anymore or never have. Bojan good to see you could make it too, with all you have going on right now. I would definitely be in to playing this on a regular basis.


    Beast any chance of an AK server?
