I'm planning on playing some BZ (1.4 or 1.5) on this Saturday, July 9 and July 16 at 3:00 PM til around 12:00 AM (Central US & Canada Time). xGurenx (me, was on yesterday) Spork (Usually always around, didn't see him yesterday) Sk-8080 (Came on when I was afk last week, he left afterwards) BattleDroid42 (Last seen May 20 according to TS; It would be delightful to see the Robotic-Spy-Sappin-Cupcake-Loving-Equestrian Droid blowing up people with minestacks and quad mdm stacks.  ) Lone Fox (was on yesterday) Hyperfighter (haven't seen him) GOLEM (haven't seen him) Sir Dude (haven't seen him) Firestyker (was on last week, tried tricking me in thinking he was Ken Miller ) Shrimpboat Guy (haven't seen him lately) Spl Eagles (haven't seen him) Furykiller (haven't seen him) and don't forget the GREAT AND POWERFUL CAPT. CHOES!!! (Haven't seen him) Don't forget TS! I bet some people wonder why I call for things like this often... It's because people are doing other things and making a thread to call for a Bz night might actually help. It worked the last couple of times. See you in the zone? Maybe? Or in the words of Sir Dude: "Come play with me! Don't leave me forever alone!"

I am gone for one day and people notice? Oh no! Sporkinator is gone, freak out! Yeah, I went thrift shopping and found some old computer accessories, found a hands-free cell phone headset that works perfectly. Found a double-ended male "headphone" cord thing, which is useful for audio capture from other devices. On top of that, a pal shipped me a Dell Mini Laptop that he didn't need, so now I have a laptop for mobile internet access again. It's not very powerful of course, but fits the budget (LOL, free).

I was on a few days ago stratting in 1.5, otherwise I haven't played much BZ lately. I haven't seen Furykiller in the game since he left for his parents' house for the summer, LAST year (2010). Haven't seen Hyperfighter in a long time either. Same with SK-8080. The lack of good stratters and people who actually play strat games (not pure DM) really makes it hard to keep playing often.  Oh, and I'll unfortunately be gone both those Saturdays you suggested, as well.

I still look forward to the completion of the 1.5 patch, it should give BZ a much-deserved boost. The router problems might even be reduced, so we could easily have a swarm of players who previously had unsolvable router issues as well as the Windows 7 crowd, unless I'm wrong about the router thing. Either way, we'll get more players.

I'd love to play strat, only problem is that the only times I'm ever able to play, no one is on. Haha. Though I'm not sure I classify as a "good stratter". I can easily beat friends and my dad; but you guys, probably not so much.

You just lost The Game.

Same with me, I have never played strat although ONCE I joined a DM for a few minutes. I would really like to play strat though. Unfortunately I am encoutnering MP bugs on my computer, like crashing. I am just quite new to this online stuff, although I would love to get into it more.

One thing I miss from back in 2000 to 2003 is the massive and fun team strats, especially when people expand the number of people past 4 max on places like Blast Chamber. It actually didn't lag too bad considering everyone was on 56k modems and such.

If you have an issue, perhaps you should describe it in detail in the Tech Support section.
