We will not be timetabling sunday, because its a short day, and its difficult to motivate people on the last day. People can occupy themselves with the nfsu2 competition, and hopefully get some games going that aren't on the timetable.

Nice, line up, wish I could play all saturday, but got friends up for the weekend from down south.

Harb, another good UT mod is Jailbreak, very fun :)

Reading the timetable the comps have been given a 2hour window for start to finish ?? or is that just a guidline and u expect it too go longer/shorter?

Post 6

Some of these games I've never played. It would be nice to get a brief description on what each game actually is.

Post 7

you can get that from looking on the internet wortel
google is a good start :)

well i didn't think i'd need to explain the 24hr clock to anyone.

but if the comps go overtime then they go overtime, i can't do anything about it, the three hour window is essentially a guide, but a guide i'd prefer to stick to.

Post 10

Post 11

Post 12

What time will the food be servered on Friday nights ?
Just wondering with the DC times,

Post 13

mm...nice work

Post 14

Hmm. May I ask if one of the two CoD times (preferably the Sat. Night timeslot :p) be put as CoD:United Offensive (not exactly a large leap) ?

It's CoD with a few extra herbs & spices. Sorry to ask, but I would really like to see this played.

Seqo.

First of All i would like to say AWSOME LINE UP GUYS!!!!!,
and I think Seqo has a good point, i also would not mind a united offensive battle.
Looking Forward to the COD and DC, cya's there

Post 18

Harb, you have 3 hours set down for the CS comp ?

Your going to have roughly 6-8 teams I would suggest, it will take 4-5 hours minimum mate unless you have quite a few servers.

Post 20

Fine harb delete my post.

I won't be following your stupid time table, i go to DGA to play what i want not to be dictated what to do. I'll pay my $30 for one day of lanning without the lead thanks.

Post 21

we arnt telling you that you have to play it or else.. we are just saying too many people kept saying theres not games being played and if there is a game no one joins it cause they dont know.. u might get sick of playing CS S and wanna play COD or deathball.. and u know there will be people playing at them times... cause of the time table..

Post 22

the timetable is not meant to 'dictate' what you play - it's there as a guide in order to get the maximum amount of people in the same game at the same time.

if you don't follow it - fine. it's your choice (knight will probably harass you regardless).

Post 23

im so there friday for quake

Harbinger obvously is, sensoring my post which was a cry for freedom.

Post 25

Your post didn't contribute anything if not just to slander the timetable for which Harb's put effort in. Fine if you said you weren't going to play it, not just put it off as "as if anyone is going to follow the time table anyway."

Post 26

i ventured an opinon as a long going DGA supporter and as a DGA member.

Post 27

Harbs can u PM me regarding this matter, thanks.

Post 28

I've never said that the timetable is compulsory, you'd have to be an idiot to try and enforce that, so you'd have to be an idiot to think that was the case.

Pardon me if I didn't want the first comment in the thread by the dga public to basically say that the five or six hours work i'd done was a waste of time. I couldn't care less if you spend your time at evo choking to death rather than following the timetable, in fact I'd prefer it.

As for the United Offensive, I'll get onto Neotheo about hosting it, if he can then that's fine. I was planning on running it originally, but discarded it because I don't have it, and hence can't serve it.

Post 29

OK slight update on the timetable, in first post, saturday now has TFC instead of HL2DM, and COD is now COD: UO

might require a refresh for you to see the changes.

Post 30

Nice lineup Harb :D
So tempted to go now. I hope everyones got the latest UT2k4 patch, 3323 I believe.

Post 31

I'm trying very hard to ensure all the servers are patched as much as is possible to prevent undue stress, and yes my server is running 3323 :P

Post 32

Timetable's are good.
I think it was on the last B&B LAN that we had a go at this.
Worked quite well.....
Mainly because the B&B LAN's not being all that big, it helped people to acutally get into a server all in one and actually have so good ol' fun.
Mmmm..... I love timetables.
I love you too Harb. Keep up the good work.

Post 33

Ok server is running 3339 now, luckily ut2k4 is cross patch compatible
