Wow, this one came up pretty fast!

From what we discussed at the Thanksgiving LAN, the New Year's LAN will start at 7:00pm.

Hopefully we can have another solid turnout and another night of great gaming!

-b0b
(...wonders what is on the game menu?)

Sounds like fun, I can't make it however.  I am going to be near TR for the weekend before Christmas until Christmas day then it is back to Cinncinati so I can do a start-up while a factory is shut down for the holidays.

...then it is on to Detroit for a New Years party.

That might be the lamest excuse I've ever heard.

I hope you're getting paid for New Year's?

-b0b
(...grumbles.)

Nope, no overtime pay.  But you see when I get enough in regular pay I don't give a shit!

But I spent a little too much on Christmas and it put a little hit on the car fund!  Go go loans!

You're going to D-Town for New Years?

Geez, why not just stick a gun in your mouth now and save someone the stolen ammunition.

Ya ill be there. I hope noone deleted any installations so we can get started right away!

Cod
TF2
EE

Unreal tournament 3?

I formatted my system when I installed Vista, so I might need to grab some games from you guys again.  I am planning on buying The Orange Box after Christmas, so I shouldn't need TF2 (assuming my copy works with your copy).

I'm sure I have Empire Earth on the FTP server, so I'll install that ahead of time, too.  Again, assuming the copies play well together, we should be set.

We can give UT3 a chance, but I have no clue how well it'll play on my rig.  I really need an upgrade!

-b0b
(...doesn't remember if Call of Duty is on the server or not.)

I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it as I may have other plans for New Year's eve.  I'll try to be there though if I'm not Briney better spawn camp for me.

-Corey

Oh come on Cory you can oogle Mary Jane in your Spider-Man comics any day!

This is LAN party time...WITH FELLOW GEEKS...

X
(...who will also probably be oogling Mary Jane in their respective Spider-Man comics)

It's better than oogling Mary Jane Rottencrotch from Full Metal Jacket.

-b0b
(...nods emphatically.)

aww man we are losing people. Who is coming for sure? Eric, can you make it, take the night off?

Craig and Corey suck.  We'll be fine without them!

-b0b
(...or not.)

I'll be there...sitting in the corner...alone...crying...as Briney makes me play Catholic priest/alter boy  :'(

as Briney makes me play Catholic priest/alter boy

Do you get to pick which one you get to be?

...from what i hear on the news the alter boy really gets shafted in this game...HAH!

so who is all going for sure? eric will probably not be able to make it due to work... so how many people are we actually going to have?

I'll be there.

-b0b
(...believe it or not!)

Quote:

I'll be there.

gasp!

...im shocked

Oooo me too!

The Bobulator VII might even make its inaugural appearance, along with that sexy new monitor Meredith bought for me...

-b0b
(...is giddy.)

You can tell you're still a geek when you use the name of a piece of technology and your new wife in the same sentence and the word "sexy" is only in front of one of those.

He he...I keed I keed!

X

What are we playing?  If you guys can find a copy, Call of Duty 4 is incredibly hot.  I get all steamy just thinking about it.

I'm not kidding, that game rocks my weak world.  I feel violated every time I have to quit playing.  CoD4 can have my freakin' children!

If you guys want to play UT3, I'll buy a copy this weekend.  Or just bring a cracked copy.  Whatever.

-b0b
(...is excited about LANnage.)

So are there only 3 of us coming with machines then?

X

So far, it's just the three of us (we can make it if we tryyyyy).

Corey is a maybe.  Has anybody called Stick or New Nathan?  He seemed like a pretty cool guy.

I'll talk to Old Nathan (Attebizzle) this weekend to see if he is coming.

Who am I forgetting about?

-b0b
(...CoD4!)

I'm still a maybe, would there be room for Bryan and/or Dave as well?

Heck ya dude...get them to come out!  I'm sure Dave would love to get his hands on my comic collection.

Is that what they're calling it these days?

There's room for plenty, Corey, so feel free to invite them!

-b0b
(...w00t.)

If by "it" you are referring to the art of sharing comics...then yes..I believe that is the correct terminology those young persons are using today.

X

I don't know if I should go and get made fun of all night long because of my lappy

Well it doesn't help by calling it a "lappy".  Plus...everyone gets made fun of there...if we don't question your sexuality, make fun of your system, or talk about your mom you're either gay, have a supercomputer, and your mom is in the room.

I'm still surprised we haven't broken Briney...yet...completely.

Yes.  Yes you should.

(...next question!)

QUOTE!

-b0b
(...scribbles that one down.)

How is that even remotely a quote?

For a quote it'd be "I'm still surprised we haven't forcefully raped Briney...yet...completely....oops what did I just say?!"

X

Hey Briney...is Jon comin'?

X

Whozzat?

-b0b
(...doesn't know Jon.)

My stepdad Jon will stop by, not sure if he is bringing a machine or not. Eric is a go! He worked new years last year so hes got this one off! Score!

Oh, that Jon!  Tell him to come on over!

-b0b
(...cheers!)

Nick, are you and nathan coming?

He's a bum.  I think we need to call him.

-b0b
(...pedestrian!)

Alright, the house is (mostly) clean and the wires have been run.  I'll be here for the rest of the afternoon, so if you guys want to do some file sharing before the LAN, feel free to show up any time.  Otherwise, I'll see you all at 7:00pm!

-b0b
(...is off to play some Call of Duty!)

Hey Bob...thanks again for sacrificing your place and time with your wife to host the LAN.

Could you look behind the couches and see if there are a pair of black gloves there without the tops of the fingers.  Jamie thinks she left them there.

X

Hey, it's my pleasure.  I'm glad we can still get together after all these years.  Few people are that lucky!

I didn't see any gloves laying around when I was cleaning up yesterday, but I'll look behind the couch and under the cushions when I get home tonight.  I'll let you know if I find them (or other assorted post-LAN treasures).

-b0b
(...will post pics later.)

Quote:

Is she a biker?


...The kind with the motor, only gay people use their muscles.

I think Briney wears the same thing.  It must be the new trend for hip, fashionable people!

-b0b
(...needs to post the screenshots of Eric getting pwnz0red.)

Quote:

The word you are looking for is gay.

Shh...Jamie might hear you!

If you ever though having Rambo mixed with Ivan Drago come after you was scary...that might be scarier!

Does anybody have any idea who this might be?   ;D

I think that dead body is Eric!

Eric is on fire?!

Get the marshmallows!!
