Quake Wars

Anyone up for more Quake Wars tonight? Last night was amazing. I can’t believe how well that game holds up.

Also I don’t suppose anyone has some of the old team photos we did years back. They’ve disappeared from flickr and I wanted to post one here.

Tables

After the last round of module upgrades the syntax for tables has changed slightly. Anyone creating or modifying challenges should be aware:

1. There is no longer a need to specify the background colour of each line to get the alternating background colour for tables. The textile module now uses the themes configuration for alternating background colours in tables, which has been there all along but due to an issue in the textile module was not being picked up.

Old syntax:


{background:#FFFFFF}. |Blood|Y|-|
{background:#dddddd}. |Deadite|-|-|
{background:#FFFFFF}. |don-robbery|-|-|
{background:#dddddd}. |KillerSL|-|-|
{background:#FFFFFF}. |Kippa|-|-|
{background:#dddddd}. |Limpet|-|-|

New syntax:


|Blood|-|-|
|Deadite|-|-|
|don-robbery|-|-|
|KillerSL|-|-|
|Kippa|-|-|

2. Table heading syntax changed

Old syntax:

||_. Team IPX||_. Thursday, February 2nd at 8:30PM EDT 10.30pm NZDT|_. Playing|

New syntax:

|_. Team IPX|_. Monday, Febuary 6th at 8:00PM EDT 10pm NZDT|_. Playing|

Site back online

Moved temporarily to backup server on Dreamhost.

I’ll apologize for the downtime on behalf of our (soon to be ex) hosting company.

FAQ.

Q: Why does the url now say http://teamipx.frontier-au.net/testsite when i went to teamipx.net?
A: Because it god damn does!
er… I mean. Actually yeah, that’s what I mean :) When we get back onto some real hosting that will disappear. For now, just be aware of it.

Challenge Results

Challenge organisers – don’t forget to enter a result for your challenges when they complete. Most do, but some slip through the cracks.

There’s now a reminder on the right hand side of the site’s front page showing all challenges older than 14 days old that haven’t got a result entered. If you’re the organiser of that challenge, please click the link and enter a result.

While you’re at it, make sure it also conforms to the naming standard.

Thanks.

Fuzz.

In terms of ads, I gotta say, this one’s not bad…

Anyone tried it? Concept seems GTA’ish but with online and free. I think IPX needs to get in there this Christmas.

Oh and heads up it’s R18+. Probably should have put that BEFORE the trailer… my bad.

They're back....

It’s been 14 years. Their series ended rather fittingly I thought with “Beavis and Butthead are dead”. But it’s 2011, and the two idiots who once traveled cross country for no other reason than to get back their TV – are BACK!

Preview of the first new episode below:

If the rest of the episodes are anything like the above preview, I can’t wait.

“You will belove my bunghole”
