In just a few weeks ThinkTanks turns two! AprÊ25,Ê2003

Any plans for another TT Anniversary blowout like last year? ThinkTanks 1 Year Anniversary , and TT Anniversary Photos.

Would be fun to do it again! In addition to a large server, what about some new terrains this time around? Something similar to the The Mystery Terrain TBM League would be fun. We could submit new anniversary terrains and make them available for download the 25th.

I'm actually going to try and make it there tonight, but… why do these things always happen on a Monday? Mondays are no good for me. :( Anyway, I imagine the servers will be named something logical, like TT2 year anniversary or some such, yah?

Oh, almost forgot. Happy Birthday ThinkTanks!! :)

WOOOT! For TT's Birthday I just got another keyboard!
BEWARE: DA BRAIN CAN DRIVE BACKWARD AGAIN! X/

A time for this match would be nice.

As far as TS goes Prey said 8pm PDT.

Ouch, I cant make that.

Oh well, maybe next year. :(

WOOOOT! Happy Birthday TT! Thank You Pokemalo and crew from all of us!

Aww Maaan!
I always miss the good games,,,
@ RX where is my Awsome Scrum Steeler skin?
Its makes for better photos.. ;)

Woot! 'Twas a blast! And wow, Sluggy showed up too?! What a turnout!
Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ThinkTanks! And a big thanks to the BraveTree gang for creating a game with such longevity!

Yeah it was pretty fun times last night. I'm glad I stayed up later for it :) I basically just drove around looking for area effects to launch them into the 20 tank goal huddle to watch the brains fly :)

After that got a little old I just decided to hunt down Corey the whole time :) :)

Lag was a bit much, but worth it.

Nice reunion.

Fun to shoot old acquaintances. Personally I terminated OM about 8 times in the course of the evening and like the good sport that he is, he handled it with grace and style.

The special effects on the server were very kewl. GJ to the artist.

Unfortunately, the crowd apparently overloaded the router networks. Teleporting was abundant. And then Prey's server was fun too.

Sry that I missed Slug, but it was good to see JamesBomb, LC50, and other whorey old vets...I mean, hoary old vets. Sry...

A once-a-month-midnight-madness-group-shoot like this would be fun!

Great idea JJ! I would show up for a once a month not-too-serious shootout like that. It was laggy as heck, but who cares!

That's only because I personally terminated you about 15 times. Hehe. XD

Lol

JJ,
Teleporting was definitely a problem. I was going head to head against dar at one point and he just disappeared. Next thing I knew about a whole round got unloaded on me and I see that Dar had done the damageÉ he ended up directly behind me in what seemed like the blink of an eye.

SOÉ

What does everyone say about doing it again tonight, only this time TBM!!!???

300+ kills per team :)

WOOT! Had a blast! Here's a few names that popped into the server I put up.

Delta/ST, GODZILLA(SF), Black Flag, (M) Chong, Zero Effect, The Professor, Old Duffer, KillinBrainCells, KentuckyKillBlly, t raider, Mystery Man , T-Bone, Baba, Paisano, James Bomb, Spark3, GAMERA316*ST*, Easy Peasy, MonkeeMan, corey(FU), Major Pain, One Arm Paco, CompUComp, Dark (cc), JJ, Blind Cide, dar, OM, MJ, t-34, kj, LilAlienD (FU), Azazel, Kool Aid Man, RedBeard, DEMO IPREYI, Bolo, FthK, ian, %, Stryder, LONEWOLF(UF), Freedom (UF), spyPBxspark(DAS), *Sunbird (cc), Pharmaceuticals, devil cat, Paisano Jr, Shellshock, luke, hal, greg, stacy, DrSawbones(UF), Ozphizle, EX*Sheena*, fiddlehead, snowdog, THE UFO MAN, Knuckler, Percitoberro Pbx, Treyo, Cadc (SA/UF/SM), OUCH THAT HURTS, Mr Big Show, heffulump, April 24th 2005, etc., etc. Many more, but the seems pretty long as is.

BTW, the special effects on the server were thanks to Max-cr. I just added his special.cs emitters to the standard maps.

Aaar I always miss the good stuff... Looked like a fun.

Lol lilaliend I like that idea. :)

Well, it felt good to shake the rust off my treads. Gotta say that TT is definitely a "use it or lose" skill! Thankfully, I managed to figure out how to drive again by the end of the evening.

Thanks for hosting the celebration, guys! It was great to see old faces (errr...turrets....whatever....).

So, I've been out of the loop, lately. 2 years is like 40 "game years" in this era. Isn't ThinkTank's biological clock ticking yet? Where's the new Baby ThinkTanks 2.0 to carry on the legacy?

No1 was in when I was there lol :[

^^ WOOT JB IS BACK!

Errrrr....don't get your hopes up, Racer. I showed up for the party, but TT is starting to fade for me a bit. I love the basics of the game, but I need a little variety in life. Right now I've been wasting my life away playing Battlefront: Star Wars. That game even makes Halo 2 look dull and boring.

I may still pop in for the occasional nostalgia. Otherwise, you guys will see "James_Bomb" driving dangerously on his Sand Speeder and assassinating troublesome political figures with his blaster.

Oh...and the hover-tank actually plays like an intimidating TANK, not some weak-skinned toy in Halo 2.

Nonetheless, I think the Anniversary game rekindled a bit of the old love for me. I'll drop in now and then!

"No more foreplay!"

^ Hehehe. See, that's the trouble with this game. It's like alcohol. If you kick the habit, you can't even touch a drink again, or you risk falling right back in to the addiction. That anniversary game was the 1st one for me in many months, and I'm already thinking about when I can play again. Arrgh!

Though you raise an interesting point in your first post here JB. It'd be nice to hear about a little progress on how TT2 is coming along. It's been awfully silent for a while now. I hope the absence here of Pokemalo and others from BT just means they've got their noses to the grindstone working on getting TT2 ready, or some other game goodness for us to get addicted to.

But still, a small update would be nice.

The bash was success! :) WOOT

Thanks KBC for gettin the ball rolling. Thanks KBC, Prey, Sluggy and RX for hosting servers and everyone else who attended!
