Yeah, it was fun. Pretty cool game. I came back from breakfast but found no one, though I'm guessing you left because it's after all a pretty late time for you. Thanks for sticking around this late!  :)

As for time zones (I stupidly missed that part in your post to message you about this) - 12 am EST is generally a bit early for me, yes, but then again anything later would be a bit too late for you, I'm guessing. Hmmm. I'd probably prefer something along the lines of noon/afternoon EST. Hopefully other people will chim in and add their preferences so we can get something with a bit more people going.

Can I throw on Starcraft 2's "Parasite" map? Nobody who plays Starcraft plays that map anymore, but it was the best map available.
The problem with that is finding people who have starcraft 2.

Great to see this thread being resurrected. I am not sure how it lost steam but it did.
I think it was because we were spread to thin and we did not build enough steam to keep going.

I was gonna recommend Super Laser Racer (again, I think), but last I checked on it, the MP servers are no more; or at least, no longer running (properly). We missed out on some potential ‼fun‼ racing.
Yeah I would have tried to set that up as well if I could get the interest.
Oh man, I would not mind Warzone 2100 at all. Or Empires. Or good old Renegade.
Warzone would be a nice one to set up at a later date.

As far as any time things are considered...I'd prefer something that wasn't almost midnight, if that's possible.

just quickly throwing this in here while randomly browsing the end of topics:

doesnt starcraft 2 have that "arcade" as free version now? where everyone who doesnt own starcraft 2 can still play all the custom maps and mods etc?
i mean if you guys want to play that parasite (whatever it is map), it might work as custom game over the arcade too. so "finding people who own sc2" might not be a problem in that case as everyone could just download the arcade then.

but i just played the arcade version for a day or so... so no idea if whatever that parasite map is works over that.

I see a starter version on battle.net. Is that what you mean?

It sounds like it only has a few maps, and that's not one of them.

(I've never played Starcraft II, although I own Starcraft I and the expansion for it. I wasn't fond of the micromanagement, and it sounded like they'd doubled down on that in II.)

There are a few maps in the regular starcraft game, however the arcade version, of which parasite is in, is free to play regardless of if you own Starcraft or not.

Wolfenstein Enemy territory.

Although we do still get 4-5 full servers. Depending on time, and there's upcoming cup and RTCW :)

Rise of the triad.

It'd be nice to play Enemy territory again.

Day of Defeat costs money so its a bit of a limiting factor for me.

Oh man, Enemy Territory.  :o

Been YEARS since I played it... Might have even been a decade, good grief.

Need to play this again.
