Junglist Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I hope to have some free time again soon, so count me in on any organized game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drusus Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I bought the game some time ago, but haven't actually had any time to play it so far. But the holidays coming should give me some time to play, so count me in, but remember that I am a _total_ newbie when it comes to the final version...

Phonan Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 December 27 sounds great for me; the 28th won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ithai Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Well I'll be traveling on the 27th but I would be available in the evening eastern time. say 8 pm eastern time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonan Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 All right then, 8 EST sounds great; however, isn't that 1 AM for those in GMT? That makes it trickier IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 27th it is! ahem, yes earlier would be nice for us from EUistan. since I have the next day off, 23:00 GMT+1 (17:00 EST) would be ok for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ithai Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I'll see what I can do. Hopefully we have servers to play on by then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonan Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Do we have room for another player? Out of pure curiosity, I think I can recruit someone who hasn't played in a while. How many people are signed up now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhantom Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hey I'm on vacation, December 27th. I'll be free all day - Count me in the Dropteam tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Phonan, by all means, the more the better! of course it all depends on TBG retutrning to life again ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonan Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 All right, hopefully he'll be willing to jump in... But a very good point about TBG- it's a race against time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STONE_WALL Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 If you gentleman wish to go to WAR on Dec. 27 at 8:00 EST than you have my full cooperation. Best of luck with the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junglist Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Geez Stonewall! Here we are, apparently at the end of time for Dropteam, and you finally get around to posting on the forum! Oh well, if this is really the end of Dropteam I want to take a second to thank all of you dedicated players out there who have made this game such a fun experience. I gotta admit I'm a little sad to see it end, as we had some truly awesome battles. Clay, thanks for the unique game. Dropteam was the first online game I played which really was a team game. Sorry it didn't work out better for you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phonan Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Didn't PoppinHobbit just make a post saying DT is coming to GameTap soon? It doesn't make sense to drop the server with a new development like that coming... Edit: Yes, it is definitely coming to GameTap. I'm going to use this as an excuse to hope that DropTeam will stay alive. [ December 24, 2007, 09:58 AM: Message edited by: Phonan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhantom Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I agree with Jung - I will always look at Drop Team as my first online game play. I had a great time and enjoyed playing with and against you all. I feel like I know you guys, as crazy as that may seem, we've had some great battles. I've enjoyed this game very much. Perhaps Clay went on vacation and tripped over the cable going to the server as he went out the door. It's been too long now, gentlemen. The end has come. I wish we hadn't waited so long to start a team tournament. We pick a date for the first one and the plug gets pulled.... Is this fair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STONE_WALL Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Jung, If it is the end of Dropteam, there are many other war games that are just as much fun. Have you ever played on Game Ranger? Perhaps the group of players we have now could find a new game to play and join forces or team up to host our own game. Set a time and date for each event so you would have the maximum number of players. Enjoyed playing with you all when I was able. If you have any other Ideas or thoughts e-mail me at d.knottnerus@comcast.net. "Old wargamers are hard to come by." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junglist Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Actually Stonewall, Game Ranger is new to me. I was just checking it out for a sec and it looks quite interesting. Since we both play around the same times during the week and are both restricted to games by our chosen platform (Mac), I think staying in touch on the subject makes good sense. I'll e-mail you soon.

__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 Nothing new in the west it seems Perhaps Clay went on vacation and tripped over the cable going to the server as he went out the door. I´m still secretly hoping that this is true. What is ominous though is that nobody seems to be noticing DTs demise so the wii ed. doesn´t seem to be being worked on either... As for other games, I just bought CivIV Beyond the sword and I havent tried CMSF online yet. so if anybody wants to play either mail me: jby -at- inode -dot- at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
