Coolest teacher ever!

I found BZflag from a friend who found it from his cousin who foud it from another friend who found... two years ago (2.0.2).

[The Frog Master]

My Uncle told me about it, He's in the defence department and plays private matchs occasionaly, I always loved tank games, BZ is just perfect!

[Grace F]

I don't think I've written anything here so here it goes...

I saw BZFlag on YouTube Don't remember what i searched tho..

[DoesMyBumLookBigInThis?]

My husband was just surfing the web , saw Sourceforge and just found Bzflag by accident as he was noseying around.

the rest is history!

We're both addicted!

[??? Lauria]

Through a Wikipedia chain starting from something about Homestar Runner, I think.

And yes, it's possible to get from anything to anything on Wikipedia, I haven't lost a "scavenger hunt" my sister sets me on yet!

[halo3]

i found bz through one of my friends fathers his a big nerd lol

[Axl]

I found bzflag on Sourceforge. I was browsing sf trying to find a game similar to that 3d game on old Mac computers called Spectre.

anyone remember it? that was a badass game.

oh man, I LOVE Spectre. I'm way better at that than BZ

[Axl]

oh right, to answer the question... I found it through my brother (jack) and dad (tadd)

[LouMan]

Like Red Baron, I was searching for a free Battle Zone (old arcade) type game and BZFlag showed up. I was hooked from day one; "Hi, my name is LouMan and I'm a BZFlag addict..."

[Macrosoft]

i had just installed mandriva on my computer, used google to find some games for linux, and found bz on a list of first person shooters on wikipedia

[CoL CLiNKeR]

by a friend that found it by his dad on linux. he was looking for some games and he found Enemy Territory, BZ, and Foobillard i think but yea

[*Boinkage*!]

I found it in a large list of online games.

[Tedius]

I searched for "Open Source Games" on Wikipedia. I saw the word "free" next to "BZFlag" and clicked on it. I think I was hoping for something like the 3D wireframe Tank game found on old Macs.

TangenT, was that called Spectre? I only remember tanks on a green and black grid.

Yeah, that's Spectre.

[sniper1234]

I played it at The Boys and Girls Club 2years ago, and i got additcted since!

[CloakerGirl]

I heard about it from my dad. He heard abut it from one of his friends. When my dad told me about it, I didn't think it sounded that interesting, so I didn't play it for a long time. But when my dad downloaded it onto his laptop and I saw my brothers playing it, I decided to give it a try. I loved it! But it took us quite a long time to figure out how to change the controls, and I was just lucky we first played it on a laptop!* But luckily for us, we figured out how to change them!




*If you have ever tried to play with the original controls on a PC, you will understand

[Shooting Girl]

My dad told us about a game he used to play when he was a student. Then he looked it up on the internet and downloaded it... We were all addicted after two days.

[Albino Blacksheep]

Through a Wikipedia chain starting from something about Homestar Runner, I think.

How do you get from Homestar Runner (Love him) to BZFlag??? They're totaly unrelated!

I got addictid to BZ in the days of 1.10.8 from my friend (*Slam*, GeckoV1) who got it from his dad

[Palomides]

Oooh man, back in high school. I really can't remember how I originally found it, as I lost interest after a month or so. Towards the end of last year, I rediscovered it (and I am inexplicably quite good, IMHO), and can't go a single day without playing.
Also, a longtime fan of Spectre.

[Concept_01]

My father found the game and thought that my brother might like it. Now we are both addicted. He is younger than me, but he is better, and an admin now I think.

[chicken fingers]

you all know i love bz and believe it or not my friend told me and his freinds and my friends and like 7 other people kept naging me to play cuz we all love computer games. so after like a week i tried it for 2 days and couldn't stop.

[Toast!]

A friend showed it to me back a year or two ago. They've completely forgotten it...
