Remember that most forums get loads of random spam bots joining by the drowes. And even most people that does join a forum, they just reigster, look, and go away.
The amount of people that actually watch this forum about once a week, is probablly somwhere around 20 or so. _________________ - Jon Eirik * www.omf2097.com * www.omf2097.com/wiki * www.omf2097.com/chat - https://discord.gg/sT8YU2E <- OMF Discord |

All i know is, is that even 20 people could get the 4-5 person games we used to have all the time going again _________________

Double Post
Me and Sapphire had a suprise jump in, of all people, Nightshadow hopped in and started beating up on us
i'm impressed to see vets coming out of the woodwork and stomping around, it's good fun to see some of the rediculous stuff we pull _________________

That was a lot of fun; I haven't heard the 'new player connected' message for so long, I didn't know what to think last night. We'll have to do it again soon! |

I've probably asked this before, but, is there ANY way AT ALL to show the current list of servers and number of players in them via the web? That way you wouldn't have to start up the game just to find out nobody is playing. Just curious  _________________ I wish I still had some jag rolls  |

I'm thinking of trying to write up an application to do that sometime this winter. Not sure yet exactly how I'll manage to pull that off, but I'll certainly try. And I'm taking my first classes in programming right now, so it'll definitely take some time for me to figure out how to do it once I start.
Anyway, yeah, was a lot of fun to play against people again, even if it was only for a couple games. Looking forward to some more multiplayer.  _________________ [Elite] pilot of the Force Flying Circus

Got a game going with THREE more recent players tonight; people are starting to join again; we gotta keep this up. Found that I can actually still win every once in a while (until any other limited testers come along and show me how well I really stack up against all the other old dogs). Keep it coming guys!
P.S. I know it's a little annoying to load the game to see if any games are available, but, come on, it only takes a few seconds to check. Would love a custom app though; especially if it could be linked into these boards somehow (now that would be a miracle). See you guys in the ring...hopefully... |

ha, i'm no limited tester, but i'm not half bad in a pyros
Ouch/Tuffy can still stomp the hell out of me, and Night doesnt do too bad if he can get his combos going
Flypaper/Hulk/Torpoon all tend to stand away and hurl projectiles on maps where it's hard to punish (Pharoh's, Artic)
Cant fight me 1v1 without 3 super bars though, and they still lose _________________

*reinstalls BG again*
I'll see if I can catch a game with you guys sooner or later. Tell me its a true FFA experience, though, or it won't be any fun. I absolutely hate 1v1s all over the place. _________________ I wish I still had some jag rolls  |

It actually takes longer to install patches than it does to install the game . Hopefully I'll be on sometime when you guys are. Do any of you use ventrilo? I have a server that I'm currently not using and if you want you could all use it. _________________ I wish I still had some jag rolls  |
