TC is Matt Bodega....

How abour some Euro and US bombing run dates and times? or perhaps combine the two into a more friendlier time and day of the week so we can get some love between the two continents? Thats always been a pet gripe with me about the Bombing Run, its too late in the UK and on a Friday night when most people are out having drinks, a social life and perhaps copulating.

Pfft. I'm convinced that I sounded like a complete douche the entire time this week. Mission accomplished? I dunno. Look forward to hearing that on Tuesday (read: Thursday by the time it really goes up).

mIRC has a free 30 day demo, and after that, if you just wait through the two screens where it asks you to pay, it eventually lets you continue anyway. You can keep using it for free.

Really wow, when I saw that pay screen I was turned right off. Guess I should have hung around a bit

Well, if TC edits again, it'll probably be out on Monday/Tuesday (depending on if Matt's online or not).

This is awesome and at the same time, kind of sucks because he won't be able to speak during the larger amount of the Bombing Run. I shouldn't have brought up MB as a potential guest for the week in the first place. :-(

And just so everyone knows, this was a busy week and I really didn't have time to plan or host another Bombing Run this week.

Yo guys, be sure to check out this week's Let's Play. Disregard the thread's false start, someone was a dick and someone else is having trouble getting it to run (works perfectly for me o.O) so come join in the fun!


Please?

I'll host a bombing run on the PC if its okay?
Or someone else can host it if they want.

Since HL is $0.98 on steam, im sure some more people will be picking it up.
And we all know how awesome HL is :)

I'm probably busy this weekend so I don't think I can host the PC L4D Bombing Run I planned on. Next week is Thanksgiving, so unless enough people plan on sticking around home for that Friday or Saturday, I may have to put it off for another week after that.

My main issue is it seems a bit late to announce a Friday Bombing Run for this week, and I'm going to be busy with my family on Saturday and Sunday.

EDIT: Let me know by PM if you're actually interested in a PC Left 4 Dead bombing run THIS FRIDAY 11/21. If I get at least 3 PMs on this, I'll set something up. If I get at least 7 PMs on this, I'll possibly set up a Versus game. Please message me by...say...3PM Pacific Time today (Thursday). If I get enough messages, I'll make a Bombing Run announcement.

I'm trying to get it figured out, but these past couple of weeks have been pretty busy and I hope to get the info up on the 360 L4D Bombing Run tonight. It could be tomorrow and it could be Saturday or Sunday, but it's really up in air if I have plans.

I'm thinking the best option for me will be Saturday, November 29. It's 2 days after Thanksgiving, so more people will probably be settled down again at home than Friday.

Well, I just discovered that I will be free for this Saturday so let me set up the topic for it.
EDIT: And here it is and I'm sorry it took so long. Behold! The 360 Left 4 Dead Bombing Run!
