9:30pm Central. Anyone?

I might be on but it depends how the evening goes. I've got a 6:00am flight to Tampa tomorrow and I've got to finish up some laundry and pack tonight.

I'll be on after the wife goes to bed. If there's still room I'm in. (please let there be room)

Not sure if i'll be in. I might want to play some Wii instead.

If I'm online and the room is full when you get logged in send me a message. I'll drop out and let you take my spot since I need to get to bed a bit early tonight.

I'll be around.

Please invite me if you see me, but there's a good chance I may not make it on tonight, unfortunately.

I could potentially find a few minutes to "pop in".

(how's that for a commitment?)

As the random action movie hero said to the random HQ in the random action movie, after hacking a random computer or sneaking through a random airduct:

'I'm in.'

You can do all of that in SC multiplayer.

And you can also randomly stagger around the maps, trying to figure out how to get from point a to point b, through the random architectural layouts of the places!

Yeah, but you can do that in any game if you want to, not just SC.

Yeah, but in SC you have a better chance of doing it when you don't want to!

True, I suppose you can stand still instead of staggering!

Indeed, I'm putting on a clinic in this activity on a weekly basis in R6 multiplayer.

I have to do a better job of resisting shot-taking at the SC series. I don't want to seem like I'm trying to piss in anyone's punchbowl. I just take it personally becasue the concept of SC is one I *love*. I just wish the levels had more of a real-world geography to them.

Anyway, I can probably make GoW @ around 11pm EST.

Zeppo · Post by **Zeppo** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:07 pm

Real-world geography is the last thing the game needs. It's all about gameplay balance, and thus fun, not realism. But whatever. It's a game you either love or you don't. Those of us who love it just can't get what it gives in any other game, period. \

Naples39 · Post by **Naples39** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:15 pm

This is the first time I've popped in GoW since last poker night. What is this update it made me download?

Boltman · Post by **Boltman** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:25 pm

Anyone still on? lemme know

Boltman · Post by **Boltman** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:26 pm

Me and my boy (SDKev) can jump on now.

BTW, my GT is Boltman35, we are checking now.

RobVarak · Post by **RobVarak** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 2:47 am

Great fun tonight, guys! Bolt, I'm glad you and Kev could join us.
