Greetings one and all!

It's been a little while since we've updated the website as we've all been rather busy playing lots of awesome games and working on some interesting projects (more information on that soon).

In the meantime, a quick note for all the LANFix'ers... I've just finished the transfer to our new game server and our Red Orchestra 2 dedicated server is up and running.  It's currently unranked but I'm hoping that's not for long.

Also, be sure to reply to the latest emails regarding the next LAN session... got something special planned for this one ;-)

February Frag Fest!

Christmas and New Year are long gone and we've just about recovered from the mince pies and turkey... so it must be time for another LANFix right?!

Indeed it is... Saturday, February 25th at the new Bear Cave!

Looks like we're going to have a good turn out with a new addition to the ranks, Krofunk.

See you all there...

This year seems to have flown by and I barely remember most of it.  No excuse not to get the team together and spend some quality time applying high velocity lead to their squishy bits though!

So I hear by officially announce...

As usual, sound off on the group email with suggestions for games etc...

You've been tagged?

Stumbled upon a curious thing today... Microsoft Tag; Microsoft's entry into the barcode world.

Doesn't sound too exciting when you put it like that, but it is quite an interesting idea. Basically, with everyone seeming to have a smart phone these days (or the very least a phone capable of browsing the Internet) there seems to be a lot of interest in making it easier for people to enter your web address (hence the rather exponential number of short URLs floating about atm). Microsoft's Tag basically allows you to take a photo of the rather colourful 'barcode' and the Tag app will translate it into a web url or email address etc...

They certainly are the first to try this approach, but their barcodes are easily created, colourful and customisable!

I've included one below for this website using the standard Microsoft format (triangles) but the easiest thing is to try for yourself... for the main website visit http://www.microsoft.com/tag/ and to get the application for your phone, go to http://gettag.mobi
