Subbing and '2 in' allowed ONLY IF ALL PLAYERS in the match agree. To be clear, if the question of a s...

ahs3 has put his gu servers back up:
Public hix ffa bzbattleground.com: port 5156

match servers: bzbattleground.com:5157, 5158
Replay: 5159

Just a heads up: ahs3 will tolerate no nonsense on his servers. Forewarned is fairwarned!

Well, folks, we're glad to announce that there was a failure in english communication and pz is still alive and is in hospital. His kidneys shut down (NEVER a good sign)and had to be put on dialysis. Will keep you all updated. He was critically ill, and the family was notified that he was dying. To ...

It is with great sorrow that I inform the bz community of the passing of Panzerknacker today. He suffered an allergic shock during holidays in France. He passed some days in french hospital; then was moved to hospital in Germany. He died today at german time 18:12. Before he died, he asked his son t...

There seems to have been no issues with blast's servers, no spawning in buildings, no lag/jit issues, etc. Feedback has been positive.

gu.bzexcess.com:5157 and 5158 are now official servers.
Replay gu.bzexcess:5159

Do let us know if anything amiss turns up.

Again, many thanks, blast!

Many thanks to Blast for his support of bzflag and the GU league.

US Riker server: Tx.bzexcess.com. Port 1337

Many thanks, blast

I left quol msg a couple days ago both in IRC & gtalk.
He may be on holiday.

edit: working on a replacement for US servers....temporarily till we hear from Quol, maybe permanently if we dont

I sent strayer your message.

This has already been in the works for months now, abgc. Currently in the test mode atm on the site.

Need to check your geography, ABGC.
Neither New Zealand nor Australia are North America or Europe.

Rikers is 10 v 10, yes. But the Riker teams are composed of a larger number of invited players to allow for subs. Last year when I captained the NA team, I believe we had 16 confirmed invited players, iirc. It's the best of 2 out of 3 matches played one on a Euro and one on a US server. If 3rd match...

Rikers is a tourney of 10 skilled NA vs 10 skilled Euros.
Teams are chosen by the captain & co-captain (co-captain is chosen by the gu admin captain) for their own team.
Invites are sent via pms on bzbb, gu site, email or by invite on bzflag itself.

Rikers coming soon! Date TBA

NA captain: Constitution

Euro captain: brad

stay tuned for details.

Many, many thanks to brad & blast for providing the servers for Chesval to occur.

Thanks to all who participated in playing and honoring murielle and surftank's memory.

While Chesval is Team A vs Team B for the sake of matching.....This event is open to all to join in, you don't need a special invite to one of the teams.
Teams will be evened up at the time of Chesval as needed.
This is to celebrate the memory of two bzflaggers who are no longer with us.

Update:
Chesval: dedicated to Murielle and Surftank
Date: Saturday, June 30, 2012

Time: gather at 9pm gmt.

Place: euro server will be brads, port: 5153
US server: blast's server: tx.bzexcess.com:1337

The match yesterday, June 25, 2012, between The Friendly Guys (Jim/red-der) and [Forest Force] (Brad/ Epic Rooster) was the first ever 0-0 happening in GU League. It was the 26,255th match played since 2005-01-23, so it took GU 7 years and 5 months to get that result.
TY red-der for the info!

abgc: has to do with Blast's server where the site is hosted. I already left him a message earlier.
thanks

Rest in peace, Muri. Your wit and charm will be missed. You were so smart with coding, gifted really for one so young...had your whole life to look forward to and now gone. So sad.
I'm glad we became friends again.
