[To be]

Sorry, I won't be able to make it to this one.

[Molon Labe]

CADC is down for some reason or another. If it isn't up by 1230EDT, we'll use this thread to report in. I'll be on ICQ too.

[OneShot]

I have submitted a support ticket, have to see what develops. I have absolutly no clue whats up - hopefully they didnt crash the server and lost the data that would be horrible.

Anyway, I'll be there ... im on ICQ as well.

[ASWnut101]

I'll be there, but...just where is it? Gamespy? A join-by-IP thing? :)

[Molon Labe]

Yep, IP. I'll set it up shortly.

[phil21]

Here i am. and in a few minutes/seconds in ICQ....

[OneShot]

This is what I got from the Support division
Hello, we are currently experiencing an issue with a segment of our datacenter, which is at fault for these issues. We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this matter and we apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused.

remind me to remove this when it's over. =(

[JoeL_221]

I'm here and I've got the IP.

[Molon Labe]

cool. Up to five 10 minutes early, despite the CADC outage. Not a bad sign.

[gamers2000]

Dammit, CADC had to go down ):

And somehow I can't connect to the game. :damn:

EDIT: Tried pinging,didn't work. Molon,do you have hamachi?

[pi_sigma]

Are you guys already playing?? Because I can't see the game server.

[OneShot]

The game is underway with Molon Labe, Phil21, ASWnut, Joel221 and till 2 minutes ago - myself.

@Gamers2000 : We haven't used Hamachi before. Usually we play via direct connect IP.

[gamers2000]

Somehow I can't detect your IP - pinging dosen't work ):

And how come you ain't in anymore?

[Neal Stevens]

When is the next game scheduled?

[Molon Labe]

For those trying to get in, we pretty much started the match on time, shortly after 1300EDT as scheduled. Once the session launched additional connections could not be made.


The match is still ongoing and is at a critical point...
Just got killed by ASWNut, apparently I spent too much time shallow and he got a passive track on me. Nicely done, pretty much never saw it coming. There are still two more subs out there though, and the formation is very much at risk...I'm looking forward to an AAR from Nut, Phil, and JoeL. Hopefully Phil and JoeL made Nut get to listen to some of the Fleet Command damage reports. :p

Don't know when the next one will be. Depends what I have time for.

This session progressed well enough to show that the kinks have been ironed out, so after some very minor edits, I'll be sending them to subguru.

Unfortunally, they never got a chance. It seems that when you push my computer, it pushes back (comp froze, end of my session).

After killing you I accidentally went for a whale that was not too far to your right, so that was one wasted torpedo (and whale!). Ended with only one torp left for two subs, and by the time I would be able to reload, our convoy would have probably been taking a dive to the bottom.

I hope one of them saves the replay. It would be nice to see how it all went down. I'll make an AAR later, perhaps.

[phil21]

So it got me too...

I was in attack position for the ESG and fired some torps. Two active und two wakehomers. The active ones hit something, but the wakehomer are still on their way. (I think i damaged the WASP, but i lost track of it)
A couple of minutes later a ADCAP from the 688(I) got me when i sent my second salvo and took my sub and may game with it down to the ground. Must have been quite near as it took the torp only a minute or two to get me.

It was quite fun, though my attack wasn't really succesfull. Right now i'm struggeling to get the replay saved...after my game crashed with my sub.

P-3s should not be flying within SAM range of the Shivalik.

Looks like I've been linked my an AI monitoring the buoy. ASWnut is on the way.

The irony:
ML: Have you guys seen if Oneshot's been flying in the south? Was wondering if I have buoys in my way.
Phil: I don't think you're clear.
ML: OK, this will be my last sprint then.

Phil takes his shot... two acoustic homers and two wakehomers.

The Bataan takes two hits from the acoustic weapons but survives. The wakehomers keep going.

AI 688I takes out Phil. One of the wakehomers acquires the formation leading Perry, but doesn't quite have the range to reach him.
