Schrullenhaft Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Yet another offer for a sneak preview of CMBB. I live in Provo, Utah and I'll make one of two possible dates available for a preview. Either Saturday, July 13th 11:00am to 11:00pm or Saturday July 20th 11:00am to 11:00pm. I can provide some food and drink, but I'll need to know what you want ahead of time (and I can't cook). I won't be providing any hard liquor however. Sorry, but I have no accomodations for those who would like to stay overnight (just in case someone wants to make a long distance trip). I have a small LAN (but need to setup a second station - probably on the kitchen table) and some moderate speed computers with a variety of video cards (so you can get an idea of the performance). BTS/BFC are allowing screenshots, so those can be made also, but with restrictions. Sorry, but no free copies of the beta. So post here and let me know if there is any serious interest in this preview. Let me know what your preference on the date would be too.

Panzer Leader Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 So, I guess staying over from the 13th, through the 20th is out then? Just kidding, good to hear! Still no Midwest gathering, but we are circling ever nearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorTaktik Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 How about the New England area? Surely, someone can preview CMBB in the North-East? Pretty, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtweasle Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 It's possible... I live and work in the Denver area and *may* be able to arrange a customer apointment, (cough - cough, wink -wink), in SLC for Friday. I'd probabaly drive or fly back then Sunday. Is there any place you'd recomend for a room Sat. night nearby? The 20th would be good for me. Use my regular e-mail account lkerry3@qwest.net to send details, not the one in my profile. Oh, and regardless if I can make it or not thanks for the offer. Kerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pak40 Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 OK, why couldn't you do this last month when I was in Park City? :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted July 8, 2002 Author Share Posted July 8, 2002 Sorry about that, we just got the green light after Rune previewed the Beta. For those of you who may be seriously interested and might find yourselves somehow wandering the wasteland of Utah, I can preview the Beta on some other dates, but I need to know beforehand what they would be.

Jagdwyrm Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 How far is Provo from Salt Lake? If I can make it I'd be coming in from Vegas. If it's the weekend of the 20th anyway. Doubt I'd make it this coming weekend. Anyway I'm going to look for an online map of Utah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagdwyrm Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Well I just looked at a map. It looks a little closer . Thanks for offer regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted July 9, 2002 Author Share Posted July 9, 2002 The 20th is looking like a strong possibility. I'm open to doing this a couple of times if the desire is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ami Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 YES!!! I live in Bountiful and it is definitely worth the drive down there to see it. The 13th or 20th are both fine for me. I simply can't believe my luck! I never thought anyone would do a preview in Utah. Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ami Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Schrullenhaft- I'll bring chips or drinks or whatever you would like me to. Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CombinedArms Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 I guess if the Beta is previewing on July 20, then the release date will not be before that. But when, when? And when, when will this preview gig find its way to upstate NY?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagdwyrm Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Im seriously considering heading out there with a friend who is also into CM. We may make it a preview, then that night get a hotel and/or camp out. Sunday morning we will be looking for a fishing hole more than likely.

Harv Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Looking into it, but it's turning out to be a tough sell to The Management Team (wife). 16 hours each way just doesn't seem that appealing to her for some reason, and she's afraid that if I go alone I might turn into a Mormon. Or sumfink. If I do make it I'll bring some Canukian delicasies, like beer and bacon. And a laptop. Oh, don't let Rune know I'm thinking about this...he'll probably phone ahead to the border crossing and have me strip searched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Harrison Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Come on, what about Arizona? My sister goes to the U up there, maybe I can get her to go and spy on it for me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shaw Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Ye Gawds, and I thought I was the only one left in Zion who actually HAD CMBO! There was an attorney who I was playing for a bit but haven't seen hide nor hair lately. Saturday the 13th should work fine for me, might squeeze in a little fishing on the Provo while I'm out and about. Of course if my loyal and trustworthy squire Harv can make it on the 20th I might have to change my plans ... or make it both days! Please send me the details via email (it's in my profile) so I can find you. No laptop I'm afraid so I won't be able to network. Thanks, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Schrullenhaft, If Joebob Shaw shows up, please refrain from showing him anything until he admits Buzzsaw as my Squire in the Peng Challenge Thread. Feel free to use any firearms to keep him away, or, in case you have one, feel free to let the Dogs out on him. [second thought, careful, the dog could get rabies]. If he sees the errors of his way, and admits him as my squire, will let you know so that you only take one or two shots at him. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuneSilly Rune, of COURSE he has firearms, they are required by Utah State law ... especially in church and/or school. As for Buzzsaw (spelt but not bolded) that's a topic more appropriate for the CessPool and I'm ashamed of you (well, okay then, MORE ashamed of you) for bringing our dirty linen to the outerboard.

Ami Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Schrullenhaft- So which day will it be? You can send any details to the email address in my profile. Thanks. Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Hmm, 16 hours one way from Phoenix. I don't think I could convince the wife that it would be a worthwhile trip. I agree with Chad, we need to find some nice beta tester living in the Zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
