Anyone out there have a server they are willing to host TeamSpeak for winbolo on?
If you don't know what that is, www.goteamspeak.com (edited)
It's free so long as it's nonprofit, both client and server.
All it requires is a mic
Myself, ren, stimpy, stix, spin etc have used it in the past to great effect.
There is also Ventrillo and other programs that are similar but i think TeamSpeak is the best of the bunch.
Thoughts?

thats a good idea. I wont be able to host, but i think that i should get a head set now
you could just use skype... no server needed really and you can do group calls I think...
or are we talking about 2 completely different things here?
Well, I couldn't find anyone to test teamspeak with me. In case anyone would like to try, I have temporarily set up a teamspeak server at fermat.winbolo.us. I'll monitor the bandwidth usage.

using teamspeak right now, so far no problems though havnt actually been able to get anyone with a mic to talk to me yet.... the voice activation seems to be working though
no noticeable lag etc from client side. seems nice, hope you keep it up fermat, and really appreciate you setting this up
ok, was using it a fair bit with stimpy and i like it a lot. good sound quality etc.
jr and ren were having trouble setting up their mics though, not sure what was up with that.
i gotmy webcam setup and im using it as a mic, and it seems to work because i recorded my vioce via teamspeak. Ill be on it later today if anyone wants to teast it out, or actually use in for a game
so today we got like 5 people on the team speak thing. Me and indiana played a couple games with it, and it worked really nicely. It was much easier then having to type in whats going on all the time. It would be nice though to get more people going on this though
if a mod could make an announcement on frontpage for the teamspeak server that would be awesome
/me doesnt have one of those headset type things
Is there a way we can keep this technology out of Acro's hands? I don't think anyone here needs to actually hear his voice.
God, can you even imagine?
CF
It would go along with all those wallet size photos of me you have.
After being bothered last night by someone (non-bolo player) playing annoying music in teamspeak, I have found that teamspeak defaults the server to showing up on a public server list. I have unchecked this option so we should no longer appear.
IP addresses are hidden to non-admins, but I will be happy to give out admin privelages if anyone wants to help. I often can't be around at nights. Just register (Self -> Register with Server) and then I can give you the permissions.
i would for sure be able to run the server while you are gone!
i think that we should have a day or two at a certain time when we have people come onto the teamspeak server and play using it. Kind of like GTO but with stricts and teamspeak
I setup my own teamspeak server sense fermat doesn't seem to be hosting his anymore.
The server address is 209.121.33.224
