¡!¡ Bolofest - Friday 7/22 - Summer Sniper Edition ¡!¡

We are getting together for another night of games this coming Friday, July 22nd. Our informal start time is 8 PM Central Time, but people generally show up early and stay late, so drop by whenever you have time over the weekend, including Saturday or Sunday.

On an ordinary weekend night we have around 4 to 6 players (+ more idlers in IRC), but these Bolofests tend to draw out additional folks who don't ordinarily stop by. Since the last gathering I have also collected some new email addresses from recent veteran drop-ins. Woot!

Whether or not you intend to play, feel free to drop by and say hi on IRC. You can also get there (and see active games) via the front page of http://winbolo.net/ - As always, feel free to forward this and if you know anyone who wants to be added to this list, let me know.

Tank you all for coming,

-= Derami

gb: this is the bolo festival 2nd day
gb: and only i treat it as a event
gb: even the event organiser azzhole keep hiding in his cave like an armadillo

Got some good 3v3s and 4v4s out of this weekend.

Turnout (of people who actually played) includes: Derami, Hellscream, Chaps, Payroll, Nowani, Diablo, Siren, NOTHING, Underdog, Gameboy, OAK (albeit just for opens) and some others I'm forgetting. A few IRC idlers, too.

Some final thoughts from GB:

gb: bye, congradullations of ur bolo festival
gb: 1. the first day all bots down
gb: 2. the 2nd day you deny me playing for no reason

Special thanks to Min and Nemo for getting bots up and running after the bot crash fiasco the first night!

Bonus footage: the game in which GB was my ally and sniped my LGM twice, then killed me for my pills and fixed an enemy pill along the way. Log file of game here

It's not as fun without the der commentary soundtrack :o

Hellscream correctly displaying the definition of irony:

[00:09] HsCr_ doesnt even make an attempt to spell correclty

As requested, commentary on the game where GB killed my LGM twice, then killed me to get my pills.

First clip is a bit slower, but GB kills my lgm about a minute in:

Then when it's down to the wire, GB kills my LGM and kills me for my pills:

I was all set to stop Chaps from spiking, but the double-kill did us in. Thanks, GB.

Damn never played in awhile should've checked this out..
