Who remembers <a href=http://tricord.cjb.net/code/tnet/>this</a>?

Would be nice if the page loaded

Wow Long time no see.

Oh wow. I remember that. That was back when I was helping you work on your web page! I see a link to my lair there, too--under the hosted sites.

Yeah... now Tnet is a searchwhore site.

wow, I remember Wolf's Bahagad Outbreak... that was fun. Whatever became of her anyway?

Sting_Ray · Post by **Sting_Ray** » Fri Jan 16, 2004 1:32 pm

I talk to her like every day or so. She shied away from descent because she was sick of everyone playing abend instead of her stuff. She's got more talent than almost every other designer out there. I'll tell her you said hi.

Drakona · Post by **Drakona** » Fri Jan 16, 2004 11:37 pm

Hehe... man, I remember you being way proud that that particular design for your site still looked okay at some obscene resolution like 300 x 240 or something. lol...

Man... and now I miss wolf, too. And all the places that are gone and will never exist again. Old IDL. Old DBB. Old Kali 682. Man. That was some special stuff. *sigh*

I don't know about you guys, but I've never seen this before.

Tricord · Post by **Tricord** » Sat Jan 17, 2004 4:35 am

Yeah, I never renewed the domain so it expired... Appearantly some harvesting company bought it and runs this crap link/ad/search site on it.

It all started six years ago, in 1998, when I signed up for website hosting. I first learned a lot about HTML, then after lots of effort I got something together that looked like the page above. It worked at the time, because people kept visiting and all was well.

However, most of all that is dead and gone now. Oh well, we all had fun but I can't keep doing this for the rest of my life

Instead, I made myself a <a href=http://e21.tricord.cjb.net>BMW Website</a> running Unified and Tetrad's excellent Descent3D page layout, which I have been recycling over two site projects of my own

I've been lurking on Kali now that I've found my serials backed up on a CD, trying to find someone for a game of D1 or D2. Alas, nobody seems to play any more there. Perhaps there's someone here who'd like a game of D2? It'd be just like in the old days

I'm up for that Tri. hit me up sometime on the weekends and it'll happen.

Tyranny · Post by **Tyranny** » Sun Jan 18, 2004 3:53 am

Same, just lemme know when.

I'll tell her you said hi.

Tell her I say Hi too.

I know! Isn't that like a blast from the past?

Back in the day when I was in the EDB... by the by, where in the heck is Deathwinger these days?

Tricord · Post by **Tricord** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 11:02 am

You were in the EDB? Under what nickname?
It's probably from after my EDB days, otherwise I'd remember

Vertigo · Post by **Vertigo** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 11:05 am

Most likely under the name "KodeKeeper"

Kyouryuu · Post by **Kyouryuu** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 11:40 am

Wolf says "Hi" and says that if you liked Bahagad Outbreak to also try The Lost Levels, which is her much larger subsequent campaign.

Top Wop · Post by **Top Wop** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 12:06 pm

First time I saw that one.

Nah, at that time he went under "Igotyou". Wasn't that around the time where the PyroPimps blasted him for something he did on a quake forum?

Tricord! Igotyou.. or.. I dunno. I don't know if you were making levels at the time... You posted on our message board you hosted about things... (I rembmer a funny post where you just learned what 'fvck' meant.. lol

) Me and Sniper would fight all the time. I wasn't that good of a designers anyhow and Sniper just totaly made fun of my graphics.. I think I lasted 2-3 months before I exited. It's back when they took level requests... reeemember?

Sage · Post by **Sage** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 12:56 pm

I missed out on all of this stuff. I got D3 when it was already dead.

kufyit · Post by **kufyit** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 1:32 pm

I'll play D1 anytime.

Tricord · Post by **Tricord** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 1:58 pm

I don't know, I was with the EDB when Sniper started it up to hone my own levelbuilding skills. Then, after realising I didn't have any, I left but kept hosting the site.

Hey! Hal and R2 did thier weekly rant thing on the show, and I was only a target because I was bashing hal over posting this stupid joke about his *ahem* 'balls'. And this was here in the cafe...

I mean, jeez MD.. you need to get it together, that thar post was full of errors.

Heack naw.. I'd never play quack.

Tri, I hate to break it to ya... but... sinper never had any levels that were played by people for a reason! Sure, he had ideas... I like to say he was the V. Halcyon of his day. He made things happen through talented people such as Deathwinger, Lobber, even you Tri.. to name a few. By the by... people who don't know, EDB is the Extreme Builders of today that got mushed into whatever Halcyon does these days.

It does make me wonder what happned to people like Hammer, Lobber and what happend to the people who ran sites Valhalla Tower... We have a few that came back but most of those D2 devlopers are gone with the wind.

Tyranny · Post by **Tyranny** » Mon Jan 19, 2004 11:53 pm

Is this the same pedophilistic Lobber I know from Kali? If so, thats where he be and has been since I've known him

Gavotte · Post by **Gavotte** » Tue Jan 20, 2004 8:34 am

Really, hangs out in Kali? Interesting!
