I left TT for about a week or so, to play orbz (which I now like more than Thinktanks), and when I checked in, the lobby was empty! And that was a Friday evening.

So, I ask you, is Thinktanks dead? Seems TT-related conversation sure is.

Also, you won't be seeing me on thinktanks very much anymore, I've moved on to bigger and better things.

Such as? _{maybe its orbz thats what wingman plays or marbleblast thats what scruminator and FREAKAZOID play}

P.S. Ur kinda right, thinktanks is diing (NOOOOOOOOOO)

Well, can I have all your scripts and codes then? I'm curious as to what you've gotten saved up over the year.

Yeah then I might get interested in TT again.(Wonder why I came here then? Well I was browsing the MB forums(I make MB maps)and I found out that marbleman was also cybertank %) ).

Yea, I'm also curious on u sending me what u have in store ;)

To bad u'r leaving though :(

Cadc (SA) (Leader)

(Ps. No Nathan, TT is very much still alive XD u must have seen the server in a very early morning or something :) )

I just played a gaime of orbz and it's good, but not as good as TT's...

Orbz is addictive....hey could you send me the CTB script? I can put it to good use. :) I have been playing orbz a little lately, it is jst that TT is old news and newer and better games are coming along *cough*Far cry*cough*.

OMG WHATS WRONG WITH U PEOPLE

NATHAN EDIT THAT POST NOW, U 2 BRAIN DUDE

AND DONT THINK I FORGOT U MICHAEL

Ummm, theres nothing wrong with us. We just don't fancy spending half of our life playing one single 20$ game with bad graphics and alot of bugs.(No offense to da makers of it, I love playing it, I just don't know when it'll wear off). I was thinking about quitting forever just the other day but FatLips convinced me to stay. O well.

What we need is an update something to perk the game up...and the ability to banish the seals/spammers ;) we should also have moderators on these forums so -z- doesn't have to all the work here

We are gathered here today to mourn the loss of a great friend and diversion. Thinktanks tragically passed away at the young age of one. You may now recite your eulogies.

...I got nothin, anyone else?

Isn't this about the 8th time you left Nathan?

Are you waiting for the band to play Auld Lang Syne? Perhaps a long drum roll?

What's really funny is that for all your presence in the forums and as a "modder" I don't believe I've ever played a game with you.

Enjoy your new games, but please don't think that your departure spells the end of anything.

Why, thank you for the nice, and polite message for me. I greatly appreciate it.

You know, I've never had a game with you either. Judging by your message, I don't WANT to have a game against you. The world is rude enough without you around.

I am starting to see fewer and fewer good players to play against. There are more vets leaving than there are good people coming in. The bugs in TT are a real problem as well. If a decent update comes out and enough of the vets stay it might keep my interest...

No, no sir, it's not dead. It's resting.

As I have said so many times before, we need some new maps and a new release of this website. Providing some new terrain to explore will even the field a bit (or just move the launch pads around) and an updated Rankings list will peak interest again.

Yeah I know this all costs money and resources Bravetree & -z- don't have, but I truely beleive that a unique little community has grown around this game, and just needs a little more nurturing to really take off.

Here's a goofy proposal , -z- draws on this community to volunter time to do Development work. I am sure there are plenty of coders and graphic types out there that wouldn't mind taking on a small project to better the game. All -z- would have to do is keep track of who is dev/testing what, then set up a beta server so everyone can do final testing, and then publish the code. Think of it as a TT User Group!!!

Any volunteers?

I wouldent mind doing some graphic work for the game. XD

@Laggy, Ummm , sure you're not talking about a old skit? Here is a picture of a parrot with nails in its feet. It was nailed to its perch... Claims of sleeping... TT is resting?

Hmmm... Not resting? It's probably pining for the fjords....

Actually, there could be a wave of newbies here soon. Check out the right side of the Shockwave homepage .

Last couple weeks there seems to have been a lull in team scrum. Team Battlemode seems to be thriving. "To every thing turn turn turn...."

@Nathan: Have fun with Orbz. :) Beautiful bird, lovely plumage.

I remember Nathan,

I was in my own Frantic map practicing scrum against a bunch of modified bots and he came in to tell me about his snow mode. It was still a work in progress at the time, but I remember that he said it's just like the regular frantic, except he turned all the red into white.

I also remember him in some of FP's mods. He would always come in and gripe at FP for not sharing his secrets. Hehehe, I always got a kick out of that.

Farewell Nate, see ya in Orbz land :)

Yeah, I think we have entered into a Team Battlemode revival. I blame it all at that Team Battlemode League.

@odball I'd be in with that...it sounds like a good idea.. Make a new level or something get intreset back up..
