Six scouts rushing at the beginning pretty much ensured our engineers couldn't get set up.

Here is the Ocean City thread for anyone interested.

I swear there was a lot more interest in this before, where is everyone?

Bumping this because 4 is the least participation ever.

Acheivement details got posted:

I say hold off on it for exactly the same reason. Also the 'official' version is probably going to be different so making everyone download it now isn't going to make updating any faster.

Here's mine, incomplete: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=29378&l=0508f&id=501568631 Rest will probably be up by the weekend.

The problem is I have about 6 minutes of this: And 20 of this: Also I got a bunch of pictures on that SLR but I can't get them off because it uses some funky USB connector that looks like an ultra-mini PS2 port.

I have 35 minutes of OCR-Ball video to edit. I should've left the camera on the pool, that was the best angle.

BBQ: Ready.

Okay since everyone's asking: 1) If you're coming by Light Rail get off at the Timonium stop and call me. I can pick you up or you could walk, it's about 3/4 mile although it's not really pedestrian friendly. 2) If you're coming by car, make your way to I-83 and get off on Timonium Road East. It's exit 16 or 18 or 21 or something like that, the first one north of the Beltway (695). Go through three lights and then make the first right after the citgo station. My address is below. 3) Friday's starts around 8pm and runs until whenever it breaks up. Light Rail stops around midnight on Fridays so if you need that to get back, you should probably get to the station by 11. I'm not entirely sure on the train times since I haven't used them in years, so check the schedules. 4) Sunday's starts at 11am and will run all afternoon. I can't be ferrying people back and forth during the event but I should have a friend who can help with that, basically between 12-3 I'll probably send someone else to the station. Noob will be signing autographs at 1:15 and there will be a photo session afterwards. 5) Bring $5 for each event if not drinking, $7 if you are. 6) Come hungry. I'm doing the shopping this evening and will be buying a lot of food. Please don't bring food, I'll have plenty. Phone: 410-561-8336x5 (home) - Call this if it's during the day Friday or Saturday. Please hang up and call my cell if there's no answer within 5 rings. 410-905-0165 (cell) - If no answer at home, or during either event. If I don't already have it (and if you have to ask, I probably don't) PM me your numbers so I know who's calling me. Address: 35 Edgemoor Road Timonium, MD 21093 there probably won't be cake at this point

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem Pick'em is back for a fifth year. I wanted to mix things up a little so the group is picking against the spread this year. If someone wants to make a no-spread group that would be fine with me, just post the info here. Our group ID is: 10060 Our password is: peen And hopefully this won't die off in week 15 again. Mods please let this brew in General for about a week before moving it whereever you want to move it.

I might have to up the BBQ charge to $6 or $7 if we don't get more signups. Also if anyone has any requests, let me know. Currently the planned Sunday menu is: -Burgers & dogs -Wings (just got the technique down tonight) -Chicken Tenders/Breasts (depends on availability) -Some variation on the tenderloin cheesesteak I posted above -(?) -Potato salad, cole slaw, etc. -Chips -Sodas, Tea, Water -Beer (accepting requests here as well, bring $2 extra if drinking) I wanted to do ribs as well but it's just too much work. If I can find a decent pork shoulder/roast I may slow cook that on the side. There may be cake. Friday's menu is going to be a limited subset of Sunday's, although I may prepare some foods on Friday and simply heat them up on Sunday.

I'm bringing a camera and a computer to record onto. Basically I want to be recording video constantly. (This isn't exactly something everyone would need to know about, but it'll produce better videos than "macbook held above head" (you know who you are (both of you))).

It would be much easier to keep track of if you kept the last donation date and how much was donated in the list of reserved slot holders. Or at least tell me when I donated because I've completely forgot.

vvv New sig. vvv

I haven't been able to play on steel with more than 2 other people. It just needs to be announced well ahead of time so people can download it.

I've put up Facebook events for the BBQs. Friday Sunday

This probably has a stupid answer but how do you delete a song? I wanted to put up a different version of Brushless Motor but couldn't find any way to remove the old one.

Toy Fort certainly. Also, since Steel seems to be hit-or-miss with both people, put it in there so we could choose to play it if we wanted to. Are there any other decent payload maps? Not that we're not trying enough new ones already, but I wouldn't mind continuing to try out new maps and keeping the ones that we like.

Yeah it's all just too much bullshit and no one will even let me play without constantly riding me about every stupid thing i do that's 100% outside of my control so i'll just ifnd other servers

Okay here it is because people are interested: BBQ Details There will be one Friday night and one Sunday afternoon. Friday's will start around 8 or whenever people show up. This is mainly for people who have to leave before or early on Sunday, but anyone can come if they want. Sunday's will flare up at 11am, and run all afternoon. This will probably be the bigger one. For each I'm going to have to limit attendance to 15 people. My yard is large but not quite that large. I'm half a mile from the Timonium Light Rail station, it's a decent walk and I can also ferry people to/from the station. I think the trains run until about Midnight on Friday so keep that in mind if you have to get back to a hotel/whatever, as my place is already full. Please try to coordinate in groups so that I don't have to make 600 trips back and forth. Please bring $5 cash to help pay for the massive amount of food/drink I'll be purchasing for this. It will be the cheapest non-ramen meal of the whole weekend. If interested in attending either or both, post here and I'll start a list. THERE IS A FRIDAY BBQ TOO! Friday BBQ: Escariot DrumUltimA Sunday BBQ: zircon pixietricks DragonAvenger Kulaman q-pa DrumUltimA Dyne Also start drooling:

I was waiting to finalize things with Jose and Pezman before announcing anything but I was actually planning on cooking out at least twice, either Thursday or Friday evening and then again Sunday afternoon. I know people need to leave town and all, and I'm not sure if there's anything going on at the con on Sunday that people want to go to, but I'd prefer to have it start as early as possible (maybe as early as 11) so the people who need to leave can still stop by for a little. That and a one-hour BBQ just isn't much.

Do you have a preference for a weekend? If it seems like people don't really care which weekend it is, I'm going to have it on the first one because it'll probably be better weather and we'd have a week less to wait.
