 pa> DUDE! We were all asking in chat if it was jP - I bet you have yer

Nah, I saw that, but between not wanting to get murderized while I was typing, and figuring that you would put two and two together and assume "phlashx0r" and "jizzzack phlizzzash" was me, I don't think I replied. :P Oh, also I didn't talk much at first because I didn't know the damn chat hotkey. Ha!

 pa> Yea; its been around 10-15 in previous months, and I think we hit 20

 pa> 2oFB had 6 new users calling specifically to grab the DOOM

 pa> Pretty flipping nuts - I guess the community loves DOOM!

Nice! The only bummer was how few player slots there were. I dropped out after my first match to adjust a few settings and then couldn't get back in for several matches, and I was watching my free time tick down. Luckily a few people gave up their spots and I managed to jump back in for a bit. Anyway, I know that's an issue with map size more than anything, so not really a complaint.

81 callers. Goddamn. I don't think I did that anywhere close to that even when Distortion was popular. :O

Zer0net might have to become a sponsor at some point... :)

 pa> We now also have a Minetest server up and running;
 pa> minetest.20forbeers.com:30000 - If meetups are hard to get to, this one
 pa> is available to build in anytime a user likes... hoping over time it
 pa> gains traction too; we have around 6 players building a world there too.
 pa> :P

Pretty cool. Is it highly modded or pretty much stock? I've never played with Minetest but did play Minecraft a fair bit way back in the day.
