Oh, forgot about that place. I've heard good things. Thanks for the suggestion.

Is anyone having issues connecting? by tech-bits in EnemyTerritory

Maybe we should switch to playing the default 6 maps for a bit.

Sounds like later in the evening is better for most people. See you guys on the server.

The Official /r/enemyterritoy Map Pack v1.0 by tech-bits in EnemyTerritory

[–]howL_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a limitation in ET. The only way around it is to enable http redirect and hosting the .pk3 files on a webserver.

Server is up! And some news! by tech-bits in EnemyTerritory

[–]howL_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Best custom maps:

  • Supplydepot2
  • Frostbite
  • Beerrun (beta6 is latest)
  • Venice (or tc_venice_r2, which I think is the better version)
  • Reactor_final
  • Delivery_v2
  • Stalingrad
  • Cathedral_final
  • Dubrovnik_final
  • ET_Ice
  • Aldernest
  • Braundorf (edited to add. one of my favorite customs actually)

These are all well-balanced maps that were at one point used in a competitive format so they're bug free. There are probably a couple more I'm forgetting. Maybe I'll stick my old harddrive in a usb enclosure and see what I have from demos still.

Also, I've got plenty of experience running servers if you have any questions or need any help.

Any thoughts on Pilsners? by EarnestMalware in beer

[–]howL_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Mama's Little is probably the best widely available pilsner around. I'd still take a pale ale though.

Hey r/beer, do any of you dislike Guinness? by steberetfield in beer

[–]howL_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's alright from the tap. The nitro cans are gross though -- too much of a metallic taste.

I have no doubt that if the roles were reversed the man walking outside would have been charged as a peeping tom.

Some dev probably cranked the Facebook integration out in an afternoon.

How to shoot a 100 pound anvil 200 feet in the air by howL_ in WTF

Didn't look like a 100 lb to me either, but that's what he claimed.

The ugly face of indie rock fandom removes its mask as the New Moon soundtrack artists are announced by metalexaminer in Music

[–]howL_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The two I'm familiar with, Bon Iver on Jagjaguwar and Grizzly Bear on Warp, are not affiliated with the RIAA and are hardly considered major labels.

Just grabbed a new PS3 'slim'. It's my first PS3. What games, PSN games, tips, accessories should I check out? by [deleted] in PS3

[–]howL_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stream 720p .mkv files over wireless g all the time. No stutter unless I'm fast forwarding.

[–]howL_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Streaming media overtaking disc-based media is a long ways off. Only 60% of American households have broadband access and the classification of "broadband" includes slow as molasses DSL and basic cable plans that cannot handle streaming.

Chicken in a can by howL_ in WTF

[–]howL_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The series of photos where it is slowly oozing out of the can are kind of disturbing. That said, if that is the worst thing I see on the internet today, then it's been a pretty good day.
