Re: Laptop meltdown
Okay, I think I have about recovered enough now. I am now in the process of making my notebook useable again. Instead of installing Gentoo for the umpteenth time, requiring about three days of setup with one full day of compiling (and the new release which should have been done in late 2007 isn't even getting ready right now), I'm now having a go at Arch Linux. I have the base system ready, Xorg and KDE is about done. I might be able to install and play the game tomorrow.

Re: Laptop meltdown
Update, I have finished installing Arch Linux and configured it to some extend. It blows.  I'll reinstall Gentoo again, and I'll make sure to come up with some backup solution this time. This might take a good week. Maybe I'm back on the weekend already.  |

Laptop\'s back
*Hubert J. Farnsworth voice* Good news, everyone!
I've cockered up my Gentoo installation to a useable system again. DRI seems to be working, too. I'm looking forward to playing my turn within the next day or so. But I think I will let the timer stay off until the weekend is over because of easter. So prepare to meet your doom shortly after that. |

Turn 81 hosted!
Lo and behold, a new turn is upon us. The wait is over.
What a crazy map. And what a crazy game. It really took me quite some time to get into this. I haven't looked at the result of the hosting yet, but I remember that Oceania declared war, mumbling that people think Caelum's getting too strong. Well then, let's see what you've got - I'll take on all of you or die trying! (would be kinda bad if the host wins the game, I'd rather pass out in a puddle of my own blood  ) |

Re: Turn 81 hosted!
Now I had a look at the turn. Man, am I happy to have equipped an Eye shield in the Tartarian Tango with Oceania. Without it, Oceania's Titan would have made short work of my Cyclops.
The duel with Arco's Sleeper SC was kind of a letdown though, I expected him to last longer than... one bash. |
