    Yea I agree, we really had some trouble in CTF. You guys were all over us. We'll work on it.

    Either way, it was great fun. Glad we managed to all get together.

    Have to get set up so team captains tell me what map they want loaded. Until the server guys get the maopvote proggy workin :(. GG everyone. I wasn't very good because I was watchin the server to make sure it didn't go down. Plus no practice. I got e-mail this mornin to play. Oh well, No excuses. It was fun. Think I'm gonna get a server with someone else. :cool:

    Definately fun, despite being ridiculously hectic at times ;) I mush prefer the larger, slower maps (aka, most of the ctf maps, hehe). I took a few demos, but the total zip is 18.5mb, and I don't think anyone wants to watch how *not* to play ut through my eyes, hehe.

    Absolutely, now we know what the score is (if you excuse the pun), I think the games will start to get a lot better, as both teams will start to understand their opponent a bit better. i.e Their strengths and weaknesses.

    We seriously need to figure out how to keep the server from auto-mixing teams.

    The USA played very well, Well done guys. I hope it can be sorted to play again. Maybe a vote on maps beforehand so we play on maps that are more familiar.

    bothered.

    ahem.. ahem... i DO believe that the US completely dominated in FFA and CTF....

    So maybe we let the UK have one or two in Team DM and domination, but I was pretty sure domination was tied .......

    Oh well, no matter, I was barely playing. I was drinking tea and eating crumpets and scones and casually moving the mouse once in a while.....



    gg guys (and gal) ;)

    I think the UK took 3 out of 5 rounds of Domination, all rounds of TDM. 3/3 CTF maps were US, and 2/2 LMS as well. That's from my (admittedly shoddy) memory.

    Hmmm... I'm sure we (US) won a Team DM. It was by like 15 points, too :)
    And did we really have five rounds of domination? Doesn't seem like so many... didn't someone keep official score...

    BTW, good games everyone. Some stuck player issues need to be worked out on the server.

    The team DM was a bit messy. A few of us (including me) were spawning on the wrong team. For a while I had not realized this and started blowing away team USA for the UK, not to mention every time there was a team change to correct the error, that made for a point subtraction.

    I would REALLY love to do that again guys! It was a totally killer (literally and figuratively) morning for me! But if we do, would there be any way to be sure we only spawned on the correct teams?

    Maybe the server has a log of who won what games?
  • edited June 2003
    Yeah, I assumed the server was logging the games...

    I came in on the wrong team quite a few times as well. For some reason I had to change 3 times in one game and still came back on blue, By time I got to red the game finished!
    Great way to spend an evening though, I hope it happens again.

    bothered.

    Awww, you guys?! Did you do it yesterday? I was at the outdoor pool here in Germany in blazing 35 degrees sunshine.

    But I'm good at CTF, and I finish here in Germany in only 4 weeks. So when I'm home I'll happily fly the flag for Team GB!!!

    Fun was had by all I think (althought our CTF was awful)

    I had the same problem as you bothered. Couple of times I ended up on blue and had to jump back to red. And gained -1 on my frags everytime I did it. Next time we are going to have to try and get them to remove the team evener so we stay on the correct team.

    How the hell did you miss the thread :scratch::scratch:

    Its a sticky, it has 262 replies, a whopping 2843 views and to cap it all it says UK vs US Unreal Tournament ;D;D;D;D

    In all seriousness, I can see this becoming a regular thing, good fun was had by all (even tho it was touch and go with the server for a while at the begining, wasnt it Prime :p )

    Tell me about it.. Not only that, but two people crapped out of Team US at the LAST HOUR (THANKS, GUYS!!!! :( ) so we were one short, and then the server was crashed and we couldn't get in touch with the hosting company, but finally with like 5 minutes before noon, we got through to support on their IRC channel and they rebooted it. It was touch and go for sure, but we somehow pulled it off.. :)

    You haven't heard the best bit yet ;)

    I had a phone call from my ISP today. They were none to impressed with my current bandwidth usage this week :rolleyes:

    It apparently peaked yesterday around 5pm GMT.. right around the time everyone logged into my test server ;D

    My cable modem nearly fainted :aol: never seen the lights go so fast!

    Ok, if you guys with the I337 UT setup knowledge can guide me, i can be a guinea pig for a UT server.

    That would be Shorty. Save NTL coming round to his house and beating him with a stick for his broadband usage. :nudge::aol:
