---------------------------- [08/09/26 17:28] REDACTED hello all. [08/20/26 12:45] REDACTED <@380865584746987531> Were you the brother with the racing sim? [08/20/26 12:46] REDACTED yessir [08/28/26 11:34] REDACTED one of those days. Lol [08/28/26 11:56] REDACTED BRUTAL [08/28/26 11:57] REDACTED That a Veloster? [08/28/26 12:05] REDACTED yeah that's my baby [08/28/26 12:08] REDACTED Gorgeous. I love Velos. I had a 2015 NA and it was a ton of fun. Always wished it was the turbo model tho [08/30/26 13:38] REDACTED Hi Guys! I've been lurking, but have not introduced myself yet. I'm Ben from Gilbert and hoping to be able to make it to one of the future LANs. My favorite PC games from the early 2000s are: Quake 3 Arena, BF1942, and (time permitting) Empire Earth 1. [08/31/26 22:09] REDACTED We should get a online quake 3 game going this weekend or during the week in the evening? Not sure how to start a poll to decide on a time. [08/31/26 22:25] REDACTED I like that idea. Last weekend I started setting up an *"official"* LANPARTY2000 server to host a few retro games like Q3A and some of the other games we play at the events. I got busy before I could finish it, but I mostly just need to wrap up a few scripts and do some burn-in testing. I'm **hoping** to have it online sometime this weekend, but it should be ready by next weekend unless I run into any real issues. The trickiest parts are making sure everyone is using compatible game versions and safely hosting these old games on the Internet. A lot of them weren't exactly designed with modern Internet security and in mind, so I'm setting things up so that if one of the game servers gets compromised, it can't cause problems elsewhere. In the meantime, if anyone wants to stand up a multiplayer server and invite people here, I'm totally fine with that as long as it doesn't get too spammy. Feel free to plug your server. LANPARTY2000 is obviously about the LAN, but since we only get together six times a year, I think a little online multiplayer between events could be a lot of fun, especially with friends and people in the same general area. [08/31/26 22:26] REDACTED Yea, I think just joining a random Quake Live server should suffice. Nothing too complicated. [08/31/26 22:27] REDACTED Assuming we all ping about the same 🙂 [08/31/26 22:31] REDACTED Yeah, ping and keeping it local are exactly why I was setting up an official LANPARTY2000 server here in Phoenix. You are right though, Quake Live would be easier to get everyone on the same version. What I was planning was password-protecting the game servers and setting up a bot to post or rotate the passwords in Discord so access stays limited to people here. That would help keep things local and hopefully keep out random cheaters and griefers. Because, of course, I know nobody in **this** Discord would ever do such a thing. 😏 ---------------------------- END OF MESSAGES
