    TG Gaming from the hotel.

    How's this for a hardcore gamer? I set up this system in my hotel just so I could play on TG while on the road. In the pic you can see my 3GHz Dell box with a Radeon 9800 XT, NEC 17" LCD display, Logitech Extreme 3D Pro jollystick, Logitech Web cam and of course my Creative Labs boom mic. Oh, and for those of you who would actually try to go outside in this artic-tundra-like weather, Times Square is 40 floors straight down.

    You forgot to unplug the phone! Very important step that is regularly overlooked by even the most seasoned gaming veteran.

    Darkilla: In short, NS is pretty much really fast chess. With guns. Apophis: I haven't seen anyone say that SM's are better than non-SMs. Nordbomber: This is THE first server I've seen where either side can comeback from out of seemingly nowhere with the right teamwork. en4rcment: I have NEVER experienced the type of gameplay that I have found here. Nightly I am amazed at the personalities and gaming talent. Zephyr: Apophis is clearly a highly sophisticated self-aware AI construct that runs on a highly modified toaster oven in Wyzcrak's basement.

    Now THAT is dedication!! :shock:

    3) Support game play in a near-simulation environment. Where the focus of play would not be solely on doing what it takes to win, but doing so utilizing real-world combat strategy and tactics rather than leveraging exploits provided to players by the design of the game engine.

    Yeah man, on their high-speed internet I get between 30-50ms ping times to TG. I don't notice any difference in the game when playing from there or my house with cable modem.

    Ah, you can't see my telescope off to the left so I can check out all the girlies across the way when I can actually tear myself away from the computer.
