After the success of our last get together on IRC a while back (June 11th) we have decided to have another, we hope that over this weekend many games of Outpost 2 will be played and people will once again enjoy this great game to the fullest. Our main goal is to get as many Outpost players online over the weekend, if you have never played before you can download the game and play, the weekend will be an ideal time to get into the game.
As before we will be hosting a 1v1 tournament. To signup pm me via the forums.
More info at the site (http://www.www.outpostuniverse.net/home.htm).
Please join us on our chat room (IRC) over the weekend.

I've added ACRO to #Outpost2.lobby, a game where it gives you an acronym and you have to create the words for the acronym. (ex. IMHO = In My Humble Opinion) Once you enter your acronym, you have to vote on whose is the best.
To start this game in the Lobby, type !acro.
(Please don't start Uno while ACRO is running, or vice versa! When you do that, it confuses everyone who is playing).
Also, the seen command can now be used in an msg by anyone (you do not have to say HELLO to the bot anymore).
-
anre we going to finish the other one, or just dump it?
-
Does that include me?
-
hey it, where you been?
-
Been working, + my computer was broken, now im still working but its not broken anymore.
-
anre we going to finish the other one, or just dump it?
Do you meen the last 1v1 torny?
I would like to finish it, ill dump it just b4 the next reunion weather its finished or not.
its still going, 9ball and Plym played a few days ago. check our screenshots on site (http://www.www.outpostuniverse.net/singles.htm).
-
oy, if CK9 would play tosh then we could get on with it, we may as well have CK9 auto win it because i haven't seen tosh for a while.
-
he was on not that long ago, but lev wasn't *glares at lev*
-
I look foward to playing Outpost 2 and seeing people at the reunion.
-
plz don't sump the tourney, i want to know if i come in second.
-
If that's what you want to find out, we can play a few games sometime and see who wins. :)
-
The tourney isn't dumped. If you still have to play a match with someone, talk to me (I am now the interim tourney director because Lev is gone for 10 days)
Also: If you want to sign up for the second tourney, please PM me here on forums (again, because Lev isn't here)
-
On the Game Brackets it looks like some people joined in,
In the middle of the Tournament,
What's up with that? <_<
-
We needed extra people to play, so we had to take more people in.. otherwise it would be impossible to finish the tourney.
-
Hi all i would like to be added to the next 1 on 1 turny I am also working to get more old Players from won to join us
-
Rondt_Panther, damn it has been a long time since I've seen you. You used to wipe the floor with about every player on OP2. I think only Prince_Paco ever could go toe-to-toe with you.
-
lol, I remember him from WON, wouldn't even bother with me when it came to a game. lol. let's see, I'm not going to be back until the monday of the reunion, darn, unless more people are needed for it, I'm not going to be able to participate.
-
I'll play! :) Rondt's a fun challenge. It's hard playing him, since he's so much faster than lev.
-
How long has it been since he's played though (does he get on IRC, since I can't I don't know). If he is even half as good as he used to be, then he'll be a real hand full.
-
He's one of the few "old timers" that has apparently not gotten sucky. He says he's slower though, and I believe him, but his slower is still faster than lev. :P
-
I haven't seen Lev play, so I don't really know. If Rondt has gotten slower, than it would still be a good match I think (since I hear Lev is pretty good).
-
No, Rondt will slaughter lev if lev uses his "pie" tactic. Rondt's tactic is way faster. For example, he has ~4 mics when lev/me starts producing a sticky.
Rondt's disadvantage is he only gets 2 smelters.(which is why he's faster) In an unbalanced team game(ie 4vs2) he'd be slaughtered, but 1vs1, or even 2vs2, you're in trouble. :P
Apparently Lev has gotten better since his won days, and apparently Rondt has gotten worse. He still seems faster though.
Yes, he's been on IRC, along with "falcon".
Hey, I feel like the odd-one-out. I'm the only newbie. :(
-
I remember Falcon, she was a great person to talk to and play against. I need to get my computer working again so that I can get back into gaming.
-
He's been on IRC a lot.
-
Who Rondt?
Or Falcon? Falcon is a she
-
Ron has been on a lot.
I've always know that Falcon was Female (I can easily differentiate genders based on vocabulary and the way a person chooses to word the sentances)
-
I just know because I used to talk to her and her husband when I used to play.
-
lol, I think the only person I didn't know the correct gender of was kirby
-
Lev as ur away for 10 days then im gonna have to say that, i will b away from the 27th to the 14th as u will not b bak b4 i go away.
-
hey, i'll join the tourney.
-
i dout Ron is faster than me :D
but gl hf gg and very wp
i thort i was going for 10 days but actualy its 2weeks :( ! etc
im not gonig 2 b back untill the 3rd of aug.. so im not gonna b there for the reunion/torny... so do we want 2 move the reunion 2 the weekend after or u guys do it without me?
personaly i think it will run smoothist if im there over the weekend cuz i can just stay home and b online the whole 3 days like i did last time. that way ill b able 2 do everything etc. sorry for this but i didnt no.. i didnt bother 2 find out for sure.
ill get online again in a few days.
-
Ron was the best player on OutPost 2 in days of old. If he is anywhere near as good as he was, then I would say that he probably is faster.
-
Lev: Having played both of you, you've either been going easy on me, or Rondt is faster. :P
-
Ron is much faster than lev as ron uses a quicker rush tactic
-
Mez that dosent make sence cuz what if i use the same strat?
Anyway i was talking about being faster at clicking n stuff.
pft, lets leave it. back on topic plz
Reunion most likey 2 b changed to Aug 6th - 8th.
-
I think that it should be (increases chances for my computer to be working by then :) ). There is a poll in this forum, please vote in it.
-
Oh yes, Lev does click extremely fast. I think I'm about 50% the speed of him. :heh: (atleast from the vid on the site)
-
We are getting back on topic now Kramy.
-
Going back on topic, the official reunion date is now August 6th to Aug. 8th. (Leviathan will b back for it)
We can't go the week before because we won't have ops to be able to run the tourney or anything that can stay there full time.
-
I can't Play :(
I'm have Router Proplems.
-
well now thats sorted :)
Im looking foward to it, cant wait to see everyone there.
Rember just because it is not a reunion weekend it does not mean that you should not come on IRC and play OP2. Our chat room on IRC is open for all 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When evea your computer is on and online you should have IRC runing and be in the chat room B)
-
First of all thanks for all the complements but i am not as good as i used to be but i do still know how to fight which is good
In the old days the was qiute a few of us that changed the way op2 was played and we all pushed eachother to be better. you will only get beter playing the best i love op2 still to this day and have so amny great memorys of the old days it is too bad won shut the game down but life gose on.
I personaly think you have done a great job so far but we need more active players and makeing evryone sign on but not chat or play op2 i think is a bad idear
me and falcon have both bin on several times and no one talks to us or plays op2
pepole wont come back to play if this keeps up i think
if anyone want to learn how to play just ask i will help if i can
P.S you will never be fast at op2 if you dont learn to use the keyboard to play !!
that is is what makes you faster
gla hf and see ya all soon i hope
-
I wont be able to come to the reunion this time, as i'm out of town for that weekend :(
-
I to have very many fond memorys of playing OP2 on WON.
I used to play with Ron, Falcon and other players a lot.
Was great fun.. and i wasnt that good then and got beaten most times :)
Yep, using the keyboard hotkeys etc is vitial to speed in op2.
Some days on IRC can be slower than others, less people etc. the key is to stick with it, keep coming on and playing.
When there is no one around to play you should use the game pickup system, type !add in the channel to be added to the game. Once someone else joins the game and the game if ready you will get PMed, irc should beep if set up so u know u have a pm. Even better is to use NNScript, when u get a PM a popup comes up by the clock.
Cant wait to play OP2 again :D
-
I'll pressure "FatherKosh" to get that DMZ up so that perhaps I may be able to participate in the reunion. I'm tired as hell from tennis tryouts and this weekend I'll have a small break from them... I'm planning on kicking my feet up (since they're getting blistered) and spending lots of time on my computer. ;)
-
