Title: New to the forums
Post by: Baltika (#9) on June 03, 2009, 07:38:46 AM
Figured I'd say hi.

And for all you admins...
If you ever see me idling at night (10:30-12:30ish pm ET), it probably because I'm going to put my 7 month old back to sleep.  Feel free to kick me after a few minutes (or, obviously when you feel like it).  I never know if it's going to take me 30 seconds, or 20 minutes.

And contrary to the player stats, (#9) is not a clan tag...it's a reference to the beer.
Alcohol content:  not less than 8.0% by volume.
If you're of age, and like the TASTE of alcohol in your beer, I recommend that you try it.  Not my favorite, but was drinking it one night while playing and just decided to keep the name.

Have never used vent before - is there something I need to know about using vent w/ TE's pub TF2 server?  I'll check it out tonight.

I found this in another thread, and assume that it's still valid:
Our IRC channel is #TheElders (type .servers to bring up a list of our pubs). Ventrilo is 67.18.62.171 port 3798.


@Luggage - I remember trying to get you to move last night before you went ka-boom from the stickies on the wall behind you.  Sometimes I wish I had a controller that could move teammates.

Not a lot to know...first you nedd to download it from here: Ventrilo Download (http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php) Then you set up your name and then add our server which is TX1.LeetVent.com port number  3798. The channel password for all channels is te which you put in the password field. Connect and say Hi. If you need any help send me a Steam message and I'll help you get set up.

Hey man, welcome to the forums.  I have seen you on the server a lot.  I hope you decide to stay awhile.  It is a fun group and look forward to you hopping into vent with us also.

Welcome to the forums man!  Have had a lot of gg's with you, but I agree with the others - you need to join us in vent.  It is much more fun with the added bit of commentary you get with vent.  Hope to see you soon.

Howdy! Welcome to the forums. Yeah, if you get in Vent a bit, you'll get to know people much faster, and that's good. For the most part.... lol

BTW, I'll never turn down a Magic Hat!

The first time I had any of the MH beers was probably about 4-5 years ago when we went to an Ultimate (frisbee) tournament in up north.

I also picked up a sweet disc golf putter from the Church Brew Works:

That place is astounding.
