Great, we've got a freakin' tie. Will one of you guys ask FatMan to break it for us? Otherwise, I think we should go with Call of Duty, UT2004, and C&C: Generals Zero Hour.

Call of Duty and C&C: Generals Zero Hour are already on the server. I've got a legal copy of UT2004, so you guys will have to torrent a copy if you need it.

Stick, I can arrange to have a copy of UT2004 downloaded for you if you need it.

I also have Call of Duty 2. Are we sticking with the original or what? -b0b (...needs to know these things.)

I have those same CoDs as well just in case other people don't.

I think we should try CoD2 first because we've never played that one on Multi and I'd like to see what it's like with the better graphics. However I think the original is still our favs for Multi since we've got our machine gun nest in the building level and of course Pavlov.

Here is the game summary in detail. I'd resize the images, but it's 10:00am and I really need some sleep!

It was the four of us (Stewie, Stick, Briney and I) against a medium bot, which is wickedly hard in Empire Earth. I was closest to the bot so I got my butt handed to me right off the bat. I withdrew into Stewie's base (thanks Stewie!) and regrouped, but since I no longer had any resource piles, I was mostly stuck with producing food and chopping trees.

That meant my epoch progression was insanely slow (over an hour longer than everyone else!) but I had a ridiculous amount of food and wood. I eventually managed to recapture my own base and we had a four way bot-stomping good time.

Easily one of the best LAN's in years!

I slept from 11:30am until 9:00pm, got up and made dinner, then curled up with a good book (Redemption of Althalus by David Eddings, which I finished) for a couple hours before going back to bed. Best. New Years. Ever. -b0b (...needed to catch up on some sleep.)
