FIRST Ventrilo (Voice) Server

[GGCO]

I'm setting it up right now. What is the hostname and password? Thanks!

[Vikesrock]

Hostname:Chicago2.MaxFrag.net
Port: 3850

Password field should be left blank.

Thanks! I cannot wait to use this.

Unfortunately, my laptop failed.... again.... so I'm running Linux (Ubuntu 8.10) until I can recover my Windows installation. That means I won't be able to join to server for a while, since neither my WINE nor Crossover wants to make it work.

I am currently on... Please talk to me. I'm lonely.

Oooh, this ought to be fun! What a cool resource, thanks for getting it set up! Expect me on in the next minute or 4.

EDIT: Got it set up, I'm in there as Keg.

Yeah, a lot of people that frequent the server don't actually talk much, instead using the built-in chat function. Again, if you need help setting up your microphone, don't hesitate to pester me!

I'm currently on Ubuntu, so I can hear people talking, but can't talk back. Eventually I'll switch back to Windows. I can't wait as it gets closer to Kick-Off, when it'll start getting busy.

It looks like our slots got bumped down to only 12. Hopefully we don't lose this due to lack of activity....

I've stuck my head in once or twice, but I don't have a mic on my primary machine right now, and only have speakers if I turn on the surround sound(homemade HTPC setup)...

i haven't had a mic at all but i'm still on chatting with David and others. there is an AIM like chat thing you can use

[synth3tk]

I've got Windows reinstalled, so now I can talk. Whoo!

Anyway, I just got a great idea. If your team needs their own channel for one reason or another (example, distant meetings), just PM me with your team number, a username, and password you want to use.

After being informed that people couldn't connect, I logged into the control panel to find out that the server has been pulled. This was the second attempt by somebody to get a server going, and while it always sounds like a good idea and people back it, the lack of activity kills it.

Maybe there will be a day when people use this awesome resource, but my attempt was apparently not good enough.
