DF Chat and newnet down?
« on: September 14, 2009, 11:16:36 pm »

Has anyone else managed to access #bay12games? Because I can't even access the irc.newnet.net server.

 I think Newnet is indeed down. I heard there was a chat on quakenet, but hell if I know what it is.

I'm having the same problem, and the website is down for me as well. So... not sure what is going on

Try connecting to irc.eskimo.com instead. The main 'irc.newnet.net' thing just re-routes you to one of their actual workload servers, and that's the one I use / can actually be bothered remembering off the top of my head.

sorry to be off topic. But hey - that cat-in-a-box video you have as avatar is really brilliant. Couldn't stop laughing!

We have an IRC?!?!

I didn't see anything about it anywhere on the website. Perhaps I am blind, or it should be advertised more prominently.

Yeah, I agree.
It is mentioned on the wiki though.
