Shell Shock is Live

Dutchrai · Post by **Dutchrai** » Wed Dec 15, 2004 10:03 am

As of today, Shell Shock is back into the community. The site's live, and there's even a gameserver running.

The new official Shell Shock website is now http://shellshock.bzflag.bz
The game server is running under shellshock.bzflag.bz too.

I'm still in the process of adding more content, but there's quite a bit already. First thing on my todo list is to add a page for user's maps.

At the moment I'm also looking for other interesting content, so if you want to contribute...feel free. Just drop me a line.

Have fun.

Excellent work!

Only one thing: Could you also add www.bzflag.de into "Fan sites" because we are more a fansite than a clanpage. Thanks.

Well done! I am impressed, and am especially ecited with the "BZ-Times" I like the idea of the news letter. The site look is awesome, and the descriptions and guides for moves are very accurate, and methinks manypeople will appreciate them. Congrats, and Well Done!

The site layout looks impressive. I've added it to my bookmarks, and if my personal site gets resurrected anytime soon, I'll link to you - though that doesn't really amount to much.

If I ever write any articles that I don't hate, I'll send them to you.

I added you into our linklist, too. Look at http://www.bzflag.saturos.de/v2/ in the left bottom links.

Got it, tx. Great site by the way, although I can't understand much. My German is really poor.

For the last few days Shell Shock was down, but the problem has been solved. My apologies for any inconvenience caused

So once again, happy map downloading and tactics studying.

Your tactics really do work, did you make them up yourself?

Dutchrai · Post by **Dutchrai** » Tue Dec 28, 2004 10:35 pm

Yes, and I really do use those tactics, gets them everytime. Still plan to add more to them though. Should be comming soon. Too busy with mapping lately

hmmm, you should set up a system where people are e-mailed with updates to the site. I could help you if you need it.

Dutchrai · Post by **Dutchrai** » Wed Dec 29, 2004 2:50 am

I was thinking about that, but had no time to hunt scripts. Would be great if you can help me. Email me?

just do a weekly BZ-Times manually, like the one you have but bigger and a little more elaborate. say whats happening in the bz and ss world. have like mabye a "this weeks puzzler" or something like that

. and send it to the people on a mailing list.

Dutchrai · Post by **Dutchrai** » Wed Dec 29, 2004 3:21 pm

Something like that would be a good start. Usually those news-subscribe services also let you choose if you want immediate updates, or collected on a weekly basis, so that should be automated.
Will definitely include BZ news too, like upcomming releases, new websites, tournaments, whatever. Will need BZ-Times editors for that though...can't keep it up all by myself (you still want me to map too right?). Any volunteers?

Scorch · Post by **Scorch** » Wed Dec 29, 2004 4:33 pm

Saturos · Post by **Saturos** » Wed Dec 29, 2004 5:08 pm

I am at your service... Well, to the extent that my humble abilities may extend to.
