The Calm|7:40pm
Ok, so the network has seemed to settle down a bit, while GSI prepares itself for the next round with it's new hardware. I'm working on getting our next playtest sorted out, so keep an eye on the forums for an update on that. I've also recently gotten an iRC channel on gamesNET.net, and if you'd like to come by and chat, look up channel #deltabravo. My thanks to the helpful folks over at gamesNET.net for the hook up. I'm also working on a map review template, as I may be going public with the call for map reviewers very soon. Keep your fingers crossed things stay stable. If you can't reach the main site due to service outages, make sure to try the forums, or the iRC channel to find out what's happening...

Mindless|6:30pm
Yep, that's pretty much how I feel right now. I've been working on a few projects over the last couple of days, and they've really occupied my thoughts. So much so, in fact, that I thought today was Thursday! I guess maybe I need a little sleep, huh? Anyway, I'm getting ready to schedule our next playtest pretty quick, so make sure to watch the playtest schedule section in our forums. Current announcements will be made there. Also, I finished up a new link button, so If you're looking for it, you'll find it down the left side. Yes, I know it's a little large in size, but it's the best I've got right now. I may re-do it again later. I've also gotten news that we may have service disruptions this weekend. GameSpy is completing a massive re-fit of the servers, so we can have that blistering speed and reliabilty back, that's been missing for a bit. So if things go offline for a bit, try not to panic...

Additions|4:42pm
In response to some requests I've had, as well as some thoughts of my own, I've added some additional sections to our Forums. These will deal mainly with a better system of keeping track of when, where and how often our playtests will take place, as well as offering you a chance to voice your opinions on our map reviews. I'm also working on adding some new members to our map review staff, and depending upon how that goes, I may or may not start to ask for applications. This is in a continuing effort to get us more up to speed on map reviews, and their frequency. While TFC may have slowed down a bit, TF2 is on the horizon, and many team-oriented players are looking for a place to call home. I hope that we can be that place, and I'm working hard to try and ensure that...

Map Makers|9:20am
This is for all of the map makers who have recently submitted maps for review. As I've indicated before, and just to refresh your memory, all new maps that I receive will be posted in the Reviews Library section of the site. This is to allow quicker access to the latest maps, and it also makes my site updating a bit easier, once reviews are completed. You'll probably notice that there haven't been any new maps put in the library lately, and that was due to a space shortage on the CDROM.com mirror for our ftp files. This has been recently addressed, and I can now add the newest maps. So, you should see all of the maps that have been sent to me, posted in the library. Again, thanks for all of your submissions, and keep up the great work! I'm doing my best to get them the exposure they need, and things will only get better...
