Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
Unfortunately I will not be able to make it, but I hope you get the numbers that such a memorial deserves.
Both players were very much loved and respected.
Perhaps server owners could add a server message to promote it.
I'm sure that if people know about it, they'll make a big effort to support the initiative.

Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
Sounds like this is a "pop in and you get to play" sort of deal, correct? Assuming the player counts don't hit 20 on both teams, will the team captains be fairly lenient about the picks? Great thing to do for a memorial event, will be making an appearance.
Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
I have a couple servers up (One may require GU membership to spawn) at tx.bzexcess.com (Dallas, Texas) if people want to see if the lag there is acceptable. That will be the system that will be used. The oh.bzexcess.com (Columbus, Ohio) system will be canceled by the end of the month, so I wouldn't want to chance it getting shut down in the middle of the match.

Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
@ sigonas: to accomplish that(make last minute adds to teams) we need to have a person that has the perms to add players to event spawn list present ....on all servers used. I hope that will be the case. @blast: i will test the servers with some others today for lag.

Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
Definitely would like to know how joining a team works. Should we directly contact a team captain?

Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
Just show up in the event, and i think we are able to fit you in team A or team B.
Re: CHESVAL summer 2012

Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
While Chesval is Team A vs Team B for the sake of matching.....This event is open to all to join in, you don't need a special invite to one of the teams.
Teams will be evened up at the time of Chesval as needed.
This is to celebrate the memory of two bzflaggers who are no longer with us.

Re: CHESVAL summer 2012
wish I could've participated, but alas, I was one of the 40% of central ohioans who lost power, which was restored around 9 pm est today. Tried powering with a car battery, but sadly internet service was down as well, by that time it was too late to try anything else. Just know I really wanted to be there.
you'll never know how badly I wanted to be there...
too bad this won't happend again
hmm perhaps....
