Alright Hammergears, I'm pretty open this week. I'll be out of town Friday night, prolly Saturday day as well. So, sometime before then would be best, definitely after 8. What say you baggachipz? Desram, MrGreen you guys awake?

Now that Souldaddy has his system back, I am no longer officially a Lunatic. In fact, I believe I helped another team beat them last week. What can I say? I go with who pays most

I'm probably good for any night this week (I'm a Pussycat), although Wednesday might be a problem. Any day but that, good stuff.

Okay Pussycats, I will check with the rest of News Team 4, the only night I'm not good for is Thursday. Also, since we have a constraint of needing to start after 9 p.m. Central Mon. - Fri.

*Edit*
Hey, Hemi, can we have the team assignment thread linked in all of the event posts, like it was for week 1? Thanks.

Yeah, I got tied up with not having my furnace work yesterday. I forgot to update the standings. I'll make those changes and updates now.

Oh, tough luck on the furnace. I hope everything is well now. And on a Sunday? I'm sure you had to pay extra for that. No rush, just thought it could be helpful for people trying to arrange games, knowing who is on the other team.

Since it's a new home purchase, I had to go through the warranty company. So, a heater fan from Wal-Mart helped warm the upstairs. My wife and I can tough it out, but our 10 month old needs the room a little warmer.

Hopefully, the HVAC fools will get it fixed right this time.

Stats are up, schedule is modified and link to team thread has been added.

*Legion* and the Pussycats it looks like Wednesday is also going to be a bad night for News Team 4. So, do you guys want to try it tonight at 9 p.m. Central?

I'm good to go tonight around 8:30 PM Central. I doubt I can get on much earlier, and it may be 8:45 to 9:00 PM until I'm on.

I'm pretty much free all week, also.

I don't think tonight is gonna fly, unless six or seven people follow up this post in thirty minutes or less.

I'm open to super late Wednesday night 10:00 central, or Saturday night 9 or later central. Otherwise, I think you and Des might be on your own this week bagga. Lemme know how I can be useful.

I can't come out and play with you guys untill Friday, My wife says I'm grounded. I'm sure Certis could fill in for me if you must play before that. His wife's not mad at him, I'm sure.

Actually, I think Friday is going to be the best day for the PussyCats Vs. News Team 4. Nei is probably going to miss tonight, Wednesday and Thursday are bad for various members of News Team 4. So, lets shoot for Friday. 9 p.m. Central.

You're pretty good at it, too! Mantis, I don't think this was tournament roundage. At least, nobody gave me that indication.

Friday is probably okay for me, as is any day ending in "Y".

Presumably, it's good for me, Braehole, and Nei.

Friday... may be, but I think Cats might want to find a quick replacement for this week.

Off-Topic: For all the crap I give to Microsoft for their Server software... at least it works. Netware on the other hand, for the love of humanity... if you even look in to the direction of the server something will break.

Netware is a wee bit esoteric, but back in the NT 4.0 vs. Netware days, NW was rock solid. Those boxes would stay up for a year easy. No NT 4.0 box that I worked on would ever stay up that long and function properly.

...and in a way, that is still the case. For the most part I can say that our Netware servers run just fine. However, if there is a time when we decide to do any kind of maintenance on them... it quickly turns in to disaster recovery.

Yeah, NDS orphans, DSRepair, time synch, master and slave replicas, it is a huge pain. Plus, I hate the way MS workstations handle NW printing. It was one of the reasons I had to convert all of our print queues over to a Win 2K server prior to upgrading to Windows 2000 Professional.
