Me and my buddies at Team Africa will play Team Deatchmatch on something, can't remember if HLDM has it?

I'm sure it does. If not, we can just add up kills.

 

I'm still up for some Duke3d deathmatch. There's a shareware version - actually, isn't the whole thing shareware now? - and since the source code was released, it's been ported to Windows.

Are you doing more floaty things?

 

I can see the Manthorp one, but it's in the wrong place. I can't see any others :(

I believe there are only the two of us in Tuva.

 

I've looked at Duke, and there's a shareware version, though that's not the whole game, that's freely available, and there are also third party Windows compatible game engines. Dunno how network support is for these, but I reckon we could get it working.

Nauru only has one, but then it is a very small island. People would probably start falling off the edge if we tried to put more people on there.

Half Life 2 Deathmatch? I like that. Sometimes, I join a server and I win loads, and I'm never sure if it's because I'm playing well or the other people on the server are rubbish. It's nice though.

I'd like to hit you with my cheeky stick. Because, I don't get home until the 25th of this month, and I'd love to play.

Haha, shit, I want to play that now.

 

It would mean installing Steam, though. :((

I WILL JOIN YOU ON NAURU.

 

Shift up.

 

Oh erm, I can play chess. I'm going to be really shit at committing to times though, so email chess and games that work over a period of time. Yeah, more of them.

Can't we "just" set up a private network and run a LAN server of a pre-Steam version on it?

Hooray! Welcome to the world's smallest republic. Here, have some free phosphates. We've got stacks of it all over the place.

 

Xen should edit his list now to mark the momentous occasion of the doubling of our sporting team.

Dear anyone who wants to play in the foralympics and is not in a country yet,

 

If you are happy with the countries available and whill choose one when the time comes, that's fine.

 

If not, please say what country you would like to be from because I'm going to make a poll soon where people choose one of the available countries and at that point the country-list will be FINALISED so it will be too late toadd any more and all that so hurry up.

 

Love,

 

The IFOC.

I am tempted to ask for Macau representation.



We need something from the Far East see. And it's all funny with Portuguese influences and gambling and the sea.

HOWEVER since I'm probably only going to have occasional time it doesn't seem right for me to be leading a country and therefore I leave the decision to others/IFOC.
