United Gamers

Hello all, been a while since i last posted general updates.

Not much has been going on really. Casanovafrankenstein has taken over SVN updates for the primary server, he promised he will be it weekly.

Space build seems to be working nicely on our server, wish i had just a little bit more power other than that we are going along just fine.

We are looking for as many members as possilbe, promoting the site and server will convince me to keep everything alive. Come to the forums (here) and join up!

Just testing

Edit: Looks good, so far new server is running fine and ignore the latter post, turns out i messed up copying sql data and the post remained, oh well :P   Oh btw, this didn’t break the forums (like last time :S )

Sorry… Anyways, I finished off on the purchasing of a new server, however, you will not be able to see this message after the transition. Once it’s gone, we are on the new server (PS: Host monster allows remote MySql, so I will be outfitting the gmod server with new software! )

Ungclan.com should now be currently on the new server.

Scared you? lol. Nah, the site isn’t shutting down, however, StartLogic have crossed my tolerence edge. THEY LAG THIS SITE! It’s pretty bad when even they’re ftp is slow. Took me 30 minutes to install 2 MB file and end with it failing to even run. They block mysql, ftp, ect. With suggestions from c_man, i’m looking at 1&1 for their service, it seems that they run ok. C_man loves em and his site runs without a hitch. What I’m going at is that the site will be down at some duration, and expect recent data from forum posts, ect. to be lost. I will, however, make it priority to save archival data.

I have decided that play-off day will be 11/15/08 for this competition. It will be about 9 pm central (UTC - 6)

EDIT: I will be using megastruct for the map we will be playing on. Download

The goal is to create a vehicle (in gmod) that can carry props from one point to another; safely, and effectively.

The rules as follow:

• The vehicle must have an open top.
• It must be created by you, no one else.
• It must be “fair”, meaning no over-powered thrusters, grabbers, ect.

It will be judged on:

• How many props have not fallen out of the vehicle
• How fast it complete the task
• How many props have not exploded

Props will be picked at random, so be prepared for anythinn
Current participants:

• {-UNG-} ECHO (me ;))
• Casanovafrankenstein
• C_MAN
• PFC. Bobsyth
• ﮎpitfiЯe

Have fun!

Tonight we must have a build-off! Tonight’s competition will be about anything, no require type of build. Could be scenery for all I care. Be there tonight at 10p.m. Central time.

I will be working to transition the site to a new host. Startlogic doesn’t have what i want to make a new site with, but nearlyfreespeech does and for cheaper (pay what i use.) I’m going to be making a “snapshot” of the current site soon, any updates or posts after this is made will be lost. New site coding will utilize Lua to speed up the system and have some of my own code

The recent issues with lag in the server have been corrected, that is all

I’ve fixed up the user registration with a captcha system, and I plan to purge any unwanted account. Any human whom wishes to keep their account comment to this post. (admins and authors are exempted)

Most members of UNG are moving to playing xbox live, Cyber and I are no longer going to host CS. But, I wanted a gmod server so I had it changed back and lowered slot count. Our gmod server is back online!
