[Sawtooth]

Jeezzzuuuuuusssss


I beta tested the original service....free online play for 3 months...I remember my phone bill being 700 quid or summit..hell they paid for it...bless em

 

[(Shovel)]

A strong brand name like that will keep coming though.

Good luck to them though, never used it much but what I did was good.

 

[old.Explosive23]

Heh cool .

 

[Munkey-]

got pissed off at them at the fact i had to connect to their ISP to play with their dedicated servers


browser was annoying but it was tons better than "the zone"

 

[Munkey-]

where

the

fuck

is

the

wireplay browser???????

 

[Custodian]

New browser is in private beta at the moment.
I expect if we asked when it will go public they will say "soon"

 

[.cage]

like woah man, such an interesting thread

 

[Mellow-]

Didn't all the wireplay people head off to BY?

 

[Custodian]

The key guys that ran the servers and community did (Drilla, Amok, Stikky, Velvet, BHS), but a few ex-wireplay are involved in the new company.

Why I've not gone by that name since, oh before you were born young Skywalker.



Aye that was me, up until about Sep 2000 - I left LL when their league commitments clashed with my real life commitments (night school) at the time, and I wasn't able to get playing any games.

That's not Nath that used to be in KC is it?

 

[Sar]

PS: /me fluffles Wijlet

 

[Wazzerphuk]

I always hated Wireplay: the state of their servers were utterly shocking.

 

[nath]

tis indeed I, and prior to that, esteemed ruler and all high pussy of KAT. (going by phat-nat back then.. erk, how lame :|)

So tell me, what happened to beery and niceguy and all thems lot?

 

[Sar]

Beery largely quit Q3 because of his rl commitments, and Niceguy is still knocking about occassionally, but still on modem afaik

[Sar]

Not in q3 it ain't, and my connection to the linx is nobbled atm, so I'm pinging 130 to most servers.

Gah

I knew a couple of people in KAT. Fuck, what were their names?

Litter! That was the one. Top bloke took me under his wing when I first started playing q2 on wireplay. Played a few games of Aq2 with him too!! Give him my regards!!

Aye, seems to ping fine up until the point where the NTL linx router peers to the main Linx router in london, then the ping increases x4 :/

 

[Sar]

Ooh, just checked, seems ok again now. Think I shall bog off for a few games of pickup.

 

[mankatron2001]

heh, welcome to ntl

last few days i've barely been able to stay on irc at times, stupid times like 2pm, or i've come home from work and my conn's completely dead, and has been since i left the house.. fucking thing!

somebody from ntl even phoned up today trying to sell us a cable modem... oops!
