I like green because it has better camo. On many maps, it is the most difficult for me to see, radar or hud. Consequently, I prefer to be green rather than play against green.

On hix, I like purple.

I have tk'd with geno on two occasions, once killing twelve of my team mates, and I tend to drop the flag unless I am a rogue or am the only player on my team. :oops: Obviously, my team mates were displeased, although a few players stated "nice going" and "thanks." :wink: Always ...

I still use a Razer DeathAdder and a Razer Diamondback, but I recently purchased an a4techx7 that was recommended by tankzilla. It is a very good mouse, and it only costs $25.00. It's highly programmable and moves very smoothly on a Razer exactmat.

That is a whole new way to think about @.

Homer was connected to a gu league server yesterday, but there was a "-" in front of his name, indicating the the password was incorrect or missing. On gu league servers, Homer needs to be added to a list to log on or talk. I haven't seen Homer on other maps and don't know if that is the p...

Some players actually are kids that need adult supervision. Other players are adults that need adult supervision. Many, IME, are the salt of the earth.

Beenz: It takes a while (longer than that for me!) to get the hang of it. You can let an admin know that you are new. There are some players that will help you out and give you pointers. You can also practice alone or with another player on an unpopulated map to develop your skills. After a few mont...

And it's in Dubai!

And it's sponsored by the U.S. Army? Do they play BZ? Maybe they'll start a GU League team.

If you have a copy of Windows, use Boot Camp to create a Windows partition, install Windows, boot up your iMac in Windows, and run the BZ Windows client. It's faster than the Mac client. If you'd reasd above you'd know that this isn't a software issue. Apple shipped the new Imacs with broken hardwa...

Silvercat rotation. I rarely played any other map. After Silvercat went off-line, I played Constitution's Tunnels.

lol training BZ Champions eh?

Well, they we have to be better than me!

I'm getting one for me and one for each of my three kids.

I'm using RC2, and it works very well. Is there a way to control the size of the window after minimizing it? Also, when I unconfine the mouse, wierd things happen, and when I revert to full screen mode, the mouse is confined to the windowed area. I am using RC2 on Windows XP on a Intel-based Mac, so...

Works with Blazer on my Treo 755P . Looks the same with Safari.

Great intro music! Loved listening to you guys speaking. You were all great. I can't decide if CBG should play a young James Bond in the next movie or anchor the BBC news. And I now know how to pronounce Legolas' name. I have never met another BZ player in person, except my eldest daughter and her f...

Also played babel the night before last. There was a fairly large group, both experienced and newer players.

Just upset it's crashing tonight....

When I was playing again, I was apparently the only player with connection problems.

Played today. Twenty-six players. It was great! However, the teams were unbalanced with respect to players' abilities. There was another thread on the bb about trying to balance teams because players tend to leave if the teams are grossly mismatched. The blue team had excellent players, and they rul...

I searched the forum but did not find any specific information. I have a home-based FIOS connection rated at 20 down and 5 up. My computer and another computer are connected via ethernet. A third computer uses a wireless connection. There is also a VoIP telephone router and VoIP-type alarm system ro...

I've been playing on it, and it is a lot of fun. We had a good game tonight.

Razer DeathAdder (when playing the Windows version, since there isn't a Mac driver; otherwise, a Razer Pro or Razer Diamondback).

It is a great mouse. It is very comfortable and fast.

Microsoft also sells a version of the DeathAdder with some different features, IIRC.

Comcast and Verizon charge more for a business account than a residential account of comparable bandwidth. There's a difference.

Generous offer, notwithstanding.

JeffM:

I don't understand about the drivers. Is there a way to improve play under OS X?

Nice undershorts, BTW.

I don't know why, but the Windows version under Windows seems to run faster on my MacIntel than the Mac version under OS X.

I boot into Windows solely to play BZ.
