I'm sure a handful of you know about this.... but i just wanted to let everyone know about the TeAm IRC channel... its..... well boring now... we only have a few on there at a time... we need more of you TAers to come join in on the fun... if you're up to it, the server is tairc.2y.net on #teamanandtech. if you need an IRC client, you can get one at mIRC's Website, also if you need any help using mirc, i'd be glad to help if you leave a PM with me.

Bump for IRC :) You never know when we may be testing the Emergency Trout System or setting up a game of UT, so come on by the IRC channel and see who's on! Don't be discouraged if no one's chatting; they may just be browsing, getting a snack or something.

I use irc.teamanandtech.com for the server, so you may wish to try that if tairc.2y.net isn't working for you. :)

just joined and I must say the only thing better than the forums is talking to you guys in real time.

It gets better! We have extra features :D

.wz city country gives current weather
.wzf city country gives weather and forecast!

%seti email@provider.com gives SETI stats
%rc5 does likewise, and I think %eccp does too



You can also have a Microsoft Agent read the conversation aloud if you're using Windows.

To get an agent, go here
Next get the core components and text-to-speech engine listed here


Using Plany for an example, one adds the following lines to the Remote Scripts, which is a small white square icon with two red dots and "CE" on it:

on 1:TEXT:*:#:/gtalk plany $nick $1-
on 1:JOIN:#:/gtalk plany $nick joined $chan
on 1:QUIT:/gtalk plany $nick has quit $chan
on 1:NICK:/gtalk plany $nick is now known as $newnick
on 1:pART:#:/gtalk plany $nick has left $chan

To enable the agent, type

/gload plany plany.acs

and then

/gshow plany

Naturally, in all cases, substitute the name of your particular agent in place of "plany" Enjoy! :D

Hehe, I've been there quite some time too, probably pretty close to a year now. Things are fun we people start talking and when we start rambling on and arguing it really gets fun :D More people need to know about it.. :p
