Thanks again Aaron215 for putting the even together and hosting it. the video is uploading now. Pretty cut and dry :sad.gif: i'm not much of video guy. so no neat intro or music. :huh.gif:
but it stinks the match ended so quickly per say. hope next run we get more action!
*edit*
I'll add the names to the youtube notes this weekend.
Also the link is private for now. i'll make it public one all the info has been updated. any problems. PM or post here.
Oh man, I misspelled blitzkrieg :-( I blame the shaking hands. And you hadn't even placed the wools yet :-) We got a shutout!
That was fun though. Can't wait for tomorrow's game. You got enough hard drive space to put all the video? I think RFW#2 is going to take longer :-)
@Aaron, Will set the map up later today. When are ya gunna try one of the alternate maps?
@whomever left those signs behind. That's not cool.
What signs were you talking about? Not the one that said "Pillar of Win" on the stack of 3 wool right? I assume not, seeing how you've reacted... but I want to be sure it wasn't me :-/
Also, sorry about lagging out the server, if it was me. I think I hit the supply room with that TNT again. We should edit the map by surrounding the supply rooms with obsidian or with bedrock, because it's going to happen sooner or later with all the cannon-fire. Or move the chests closer to the supply tunnel.
Who: 8 players
Map: Race for the Wool 2: Direct Fire
Date: Sunday, December 11th
Time: GMT-7 (8pm US Central)
Team leaders: Aaron215, last_username
Allow pugs*: yes
Camera people*: none
This race is already full! Sorry! Feel free to hop in and see if we can get you in as a substitution.
Logged in no problem, and the ping seems reasonable, hard to tell w/o being able to break blocks etc. Which team speak does the server generally use v2 or v3?
This is great, thanks to the reddit post for bringing my attention to it.
I'll probably try and log on tonight just to see how my ping is on the server (I'm not based in the usa). If it's good I'll setup my mic and see about joining some matches.
Really excited, the RFW maps look like such fun.
The server is usually up. Go ahead and try logging on now, I'll play you in a game of spleef if we have permissions set up.
There's a scheduled outage tonight of the Minecraft's login authentication servers. Unfortunately this scheduled outage falls right before our scheduled match tonight. The outage begins (all of these times are in US Central) 7:30pm, and continues until 9pm. Perfect timing, no?
The best approach would be to log in to the server BEFORE 7:30 if possible, and remain in the server during the whole match. From what I understand, servers authenticate your credentials when you attempt to enter the server, which goes through the Minecraft servers, which will not be available due to this scheduled outage.
Again, log in BEFORE 7:30pm US Central time, and remain in the server the entire match, or it will be difficult for you to return.
See you BEFORE 7:30, and when we are all ready we will begin. It may end up being a 3v3 because of this, but we'll try our best!
Who: 8 players
Map: Capture the Wool 1: Fields of Glory
Date: Thursday, December 8th
Time: GMT-7 (8pm US Central)

EDIT: Time change! Log in BEFORE 7:30pm US Central due to Mojang's scheduled authentication server outage.
Hi! I'm a little confused about which download I should use... I'm running a pretty old computer (windows xp, a pentium 4, but a good video card). Mainly I just want more fps and less stutter and cpu usage. Any advice?
Fantastic! I have a working PC again, and to celebrate I'd like to have a match of the new Vechs Capture the Wool!
Anyone want in? The time would be this Thursday, December 8th, at 8pm US Central. I'll be collecting people from other forums as well, so get in while you can. When I have 8 people I'm going to put up the official form here, and at that point we can have up to 4 more join. Vechs says up to 12 players is possible here, so we won't do any more than that.

I call it a race because that's what it was. Both teams had a blitz strategy. Team 1 won, but only by 1 wool.
Advice? Destroy that center bridge, Vechs! Way too easy to get in and get out. We had fun regardless :-)
Good game team 2!
Video will be up soon. It will only be like 5 minutes long :-)

Will do. What's your IGN? Also, make sure you have Teamspeak. It's free, small filesize, and you'll need it to communicate with your team.
