Hi, folks! I'm back from Yellowstone National Park. We had a great vacation with many folks from both Europe and Asia - it was really neat to see holiday makers from other countries taking in the sights and sounds in our neck of the woods. For any fly fishermen out there who haven't been there, yet - all the stories are true. I was there a week, during the massive salmonfly hatch, and I can't wait to get back. And, upon exiting the park, the Beartooth Highway was a bonus highlight (in addition to seeing the Lamar Canyon wolf pack working on a fresh kill. . .; both pretty incredible). The server should be up and running. The new IP address for both the game and TS servers is 76.17.150.156. Let me know if it works for you all. Game tomorrow night? Let's give it a go! Anguis

:o Aaarrrgghhh! Of course, after checking on it for a while w/ no problems, the network connection cuts out when I'm not paying attention. Great! Thanks, man!

Hi, folks, Summer has arrived and, thus, so too have the intermittent periods of TacOps Server downtime. Here comes the first one: June 29 to July 9. Y'all take care! Anguis

Sounds great - good ideas! It'd be interesting to see if you could get those Berghoff forest pines (the ones w/ the red trunks) to be less brightly colored, to match a little more closely the OFP color scheme.

Congrats! And, thanks!

Hi, guys, Thanks for the update. At that point, everyone else was asleep, nothing else was running. I'll check up and see if there isn't anything else going on. Did it get back to normal? Anguis

Thanks, Zulu - I hadn't realized it was down until trying to get on, just now. Should be up, shortly. edit: Got some instability issues w/ the server - working through it. . . Sorry.

Weekend fun in Marto's Meatgrinder: Zulu and Revan, still 'not dead': As the above picture indicates, I did not make it out alive. . . Let's see about doing it again this weekend (Friday or Saturday)!

Well, folks, I figure I should make it official - tonight @ 10 p.m. CST, WGL night @ the TacOps server. It's been a while since I fired things up. Come along, it should be fun!

Hi, guys. I'm thinking this Friday, 5/4. And, if I'm not hit w/ distractions, 5/11 would be fun, too (but, let's cross that bridge when we get to it. . .). Later!

Hi, guys! How's next Friday night (CST, O-Dark:30 Sat. a.m. OL time. . .) sound? Revan, since you're CST, too, if I get on, it'll be in the evening, usually after the rest of the family is in bed. . . I'll see if I can roust up Viking and Snake. Maybe Daefte will make an appearance! Zulu? Anguis

Well, I just knew I should have listened to that voice in my head saying, "Fire up the server!" I've been busy w/ tiling up my kitchen the last few days (it's funny how being knee-deep in mastic and tile saw shenanigans will cause a mind to drift over Nogovan hillls. . . and trout streams. . .). I shut the server down over Easter with the intention of getting it back up shortly thereafter. Thanks for the reminder, guys! It'll be up, soon. And, hopefully soon, we'll catch one another in those hills. . . :)

Hells bells, yes! (Hellsing's good, too.)

Cool, Niki and L.K. - thanks! Variable, are these MP missions compatible w/ the old CiA FDF setup? I have the entire server archived. . . Anguis

Generally, I'm on @ 10 p.m. CST (4 a.m. GMT, 5 a.m. in Vilnius, I think). Now, if you meant 'tonight, your time,' let me know what time works for you. I might be available, shortly.

Sounds good - I'll be there!

Hi, folks, I'll be up for some playing the next few days (basically the next four nights, CST) - what looks good for you all? Anguis

Hi, guys! The server's back up (I think it was a wifi issue - it seems there's a limit to how many devices are allowed to access the network here). I won't be on tonight - Daylight Savings Time kicks in and I have to teach, tomorrow morning, so it's off to bed early, for me. Marto, Overlord, et al., I'm sure we can find some time. The next three weekends actually are looking good (with the middle one looking best, for me) - we'll work it out! @ Variable - re. the pictures, I know what you mean! Later! Anguis

March 22 through March 25 are wide open for me - any thoughts on making that weekend (among others) work?

Bad-ass movie (by which, I mean, "It was awesome!!" - for the non-native English speakers who might not get that. . .), I saw it on Sunday. I can't wait for the DVD!

Nice hit, Marto! (actually, 'hits' - note the two walls that are down. . .) Viking and I before the inevitable crash and burn: Dang, this camo works! Daefte plants a satchel: ---------- Post added at 23:57 ---------- Previous post was at 23:46 ---------- Back to the Jeep! Viking inspects a kill:

We had some good games last night with daefte and viking (both with some good AT kills I'll have pictures of, in time). I'll likely not make it on time, tonight (tax prep 'goings on' over here and the computer used for it happens to be my gaming one - boy, did I mis-fire on that setup. . .). The servers are up for any and all interested - y'all have fun!

That looks to be around 8 a.m. over here - I'll keep my eyes open, if I'm able to play. As it is, game nights this weekend will be around 10 p.m. CST, both Friday and Saturday; might work in something on Sunday, too.

I'll be there! If you're up for a bit tomorrow morning (my time), let me know. I'll pass the word along - Fri, Sat, Sun?

Wow - that's really something to see how much of a punch one of those rounds delivers.
