hahaah... well uh, no these guys don't have lives... I post crap over that sCary's Shugashack and I've met half the "news" guys and nah, they don't have lives... and Blue has 3 guys posting =)
speaking of deviants, at the latest QCon, a guy from Canada named George won by a fairly wide margin, and can now arguably be called the best Q3 player in the world. I know George personally. George holds several national track records. George is also one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. hmm. kinda puts that whole "kids who play games are pyshco hermits who kill people" idea to shame, no?
the worst thing is that the service is extremely good... and the tech i've talked to are rather smart. Once i got my adsl up and running (this took a while, seems that they won't install adsl if you have a different local carrier) i've had to call bellsouth once. i've downloaded at up 188kbps, and at $59.95 for 1.5Mb download and 256K upload, its the best deal I've seen anywhere. oh well. they don't have static ips and won't let you run a network behind it (i got around this by using a NAT) but other than that, it's been nothing short of fantastic. it's a pretty direct jump into uu.net too. (though it seens that uu.net chicago is broken today)
ah, I'm looking forward to this. I believe I have bought 4 different incarnations of civilization; civ, civnet, civ2, and just monday civ2 gold (civ 2 + expansion + multiplayer)... civ2 just reemerged as my biggest time waster (overtaking Quake3). the deal with there being so many civs was that everybody had a small portion of rights to the name except sid himself, who really deserved all of it - anyway, I'm happy about this. i expect with all the civ clones running around out there now he will do more than just polish the original civ. ah. i feel good now:)
