Boomer, Look Out!

TeaLeaf · October 04, 2006, 08:28:39 AM

Watch yourself over the next 24 hours - the Aszune WoW server is offline for some hardware upgrades and not expected to come back online until 12pm tomorrow (Thursday) so you have a bunch of frustated WOWers looking to 'boom headshot' someone.

Posts have been made pointing SOGers at Boomer for some Source action tonight, so look out! May the games begin.

Might join you there then (hopefully not, trying to get in touch with the Shuttle-assemblers).
And guys, resurrect doesn't work :wink:

Looking at nearly 36 hours without WoW can bring out the worst in folks, so this can be ugly... http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4382766522092008539 :roflmao:
(yes, it's old I know, but it's very suitable for this situation)

Too bad my laptop is down - and I don't even have CS:S laying around... I just need to get my hans on that one <_<

Anyone want to buy an Enchanted AWP+12 and some Grenade Protection potions? Don't ask about the Kevlar wizards hat, you can't afford it.

Hey, as long as I can shift into cat form and prowl, I won't complain :narnar:

as long as people don't go mad buying AWMs everything will be cool. We have specific server rules about use of the AWM.

The rule can be summed up as follows:

Don't

:biggrin:

I guess this is close to a n00b question, but what's an AWM?

I would guess something like automatic weapong M-somthing, or :huh:

TeaLeaf · October 04, 2006, 03:59:06 PM

It's an over-powered sniper rifle that tends to one-shot you. Aka 'noob cannon'. It, along with the auto-sniper, have the potential to ruin the game.

Some people call it an AWP - the big long LOUD stick thing that costs lots of money. However, if you ask TL he will tell you (correctly) that it is actually an AWM not an AWP.

AWM stands for Arctic Warfare Magnum (IIRC)

there's a whole lot of 'em

Updating my long-unused Steam atm, hope I'll be able to join this evening.

Never played CS:S but I will try to shoot down someone :boxing:

Penfold · October 04, 2006, 06:12:13 PM

Make sure you leave plenty of time for steam to update
I've been updating it for the LAn and it's taken hours ...:doh:

Akall · October 04, 2006, 06:26:48 PM

Well yes is taking longer than I thought, hope I will be able to join you tonight! :g:

Edit: 1h 30 mins and stuck to 75%, I'm starting to hate Steam!

Edit 2: Still @ 80% no first time on CS:S for me tonight Y_Y, btw there is any other method to update CS, Steam is taking far too long...
