Webbox Update

[Wellcky]

hmmm.. how about blitzkrieg

 

[ViRGE]

Calm down guys, we first need to take care of getting the name contest started, then after that, we can worry about the content master.

 

[DanC]

Why not get the box up and running - and worry about naming it later? just my 2cents - but... yo....

 

[ViRGE]

We have to give it a name so the BBs know where to flush to anyways.

 

[DanC]

Crimony - get on with it. Designing skyscrapers takes less time.
Pick a name and do something.

DPC continue to whittle away - BY ABOUT 1 MILLION BLOCKS PER DAY

while - we piddle around about a BOX NAME?????

Uh... do we have our priorities a little confused here?

 

[mechBgon]

Relax, DanC... we do know how to multi-task around here, you know ; ) and I myself have been waiting for some answers on the banner thread so I know what to try to design *ahem* for our advertisement-design contest. Thanks for the reply, I will apply my efforts the best I can. 120 x 60 pixels is not a lot of space, hmm... we'll see if I can squeeze something into it, though. Still wondering if we'll need to stick with one banner, or if we will be able to run a new one every day?

This box-naming stuff may not be your type of thing but it's the reason I'm on the team... for the fun of it! : )

 

[danzigrules]

why not use something simple?
like TA box
TA stat box
OUR STAT BOX?



assimilate boxes

wish you were here
We r the best
come get u some
Byte this

hell I don't know just things off the top of my head

 

[DanC]

mech -
I'm sure there are problems - I guess.
The name isn't the issue - the content IS.

We've been waiting for some time now. Obviously multi-tasking is the greater part of valor, but - it takes 45 minutes to set up an NT server.

The name doesn't matter - the content does.!

 

[Ken g6]

I'm confused. Is this referring to a name for the server; e.g. we'll access stats.teamanandtech.com (why not this) for our stats forever? Or is this just a name to call it by? (Adul's Crack Track 1 works for this. )

Edit: BTW, Hawkeye, I think the name WarpCore is already taken.

 

[Jator]

DanC,

You could single-handedly beat the DPCers on sheer will alone. I agree, I think that the web box is a long time in comming, maybe a little longer than needed.

From my point of view, I am just happy to see this comming together. I remember it was late last year when we started discussing this, now we are almost at the end of 2000. :Q

I do think that some of us have waited for this for so long, we kinda want to make it a special event. Yes, you could set NT up in 45 minutes, but we want to set something special up and we want to have a comming out party ( uh, not one of those comming put parites.....not that there is anything wrong with that.). So lets get the thing named, lets get some people to put up content (hell, I'll help out in any way I can), and let's get this party started!!!!

Jay

P.S. I just had a Coke and a half pan of brwonies, please forgive my sugar and caffenie high!!!

 

[mechBgon]

DanC, still wondering about whether they'd let us submit several banners or if we have to have just one?


edit: Jator, any leftovers there? ;D

 

[Jator]

mech.....

<burp>

Nope, sorry Brwonies are all gone and am now drinking milk to wash it down.

Jay

 

[DanC]

Jay - save me one... !

don't mean to be critical - but this isn't rocket science. The thing has drug on FOREVER.
Sorry Virge - get on with it.

Guess that whacks me as any contributor... but Crimony!

Make a decisison, stick to it, deal with it - and move on.

Notice the smileys?

 

[Jator]

DanC,

I see no reason why you couldn't have a section as well. As I have said before, you are our biggest cheerleader (though, could you get a longer skirt, your legs just don't do it for me)

Honestly, I reccomend that DanC have a column of some kind. Maybe a weekly thing. We've got someone whos isn't affraid to say what he means, let;s utilize that talent.

Jay

 

[mechBgon]

DanC, you can help, buddy. We need suggestions for the name and/or votes for a name so we can wrap it up. Got any favorites so far? ViRGE, if you're around, can you maybe fire up a nominee thread so we can narrow down the choices and then have a voting thread via this new poll feature?

By the way, I need someone with a GIF animator to raise their hand, since I've (gulp) lost or thrown away my Ulead PhotoImpact 3.0 CD, and I can't install my Ulead GIF animator without PI 3.0 installed first. I will be experimenting with my 3D modelling software and generating either JPG or BMP frames, and I'll need them converted into an animated GIF.

 

[DanC]

Oy Veh...
you guys and your flattery.
Virge has already recieved my offer.

I'm a not altogether unaccomplished member of the IWA - but - this isn't what I do for a living anymore. However... considering the salary.. :Q

It's for TA!

Virge may be too tweaked at me at this point to respond. I don't know.

 

[Gatsby]

On the lines of Core..

why not the &quot;Cure&quot; for all of our stat addictions.

Gatsby

 

[mechBgon]

Heh, that makes me think of the suggestion I gave Team HardOCP for their pProxy: &quot;The Habit!&quot;

 

[ViRGE]

Me, tweeked!?:Q Naa, only crazy. Anyways, once I get the final wording down tonight, I'll post the voting thread.

 

[Slahr Dzhe]

I like The Core and CrackDealer.

I would like very much to contribute something to this, but due to some recent developments at work, this is not possible whatsoever. I am typing this from Sasebo, and I will be heading to Seoul next. I am not sure of my schedule after that. I have some things in mind for stuff that I want to do for the team, but they will have to wait until I get back home.

Looking forward to all the new things in store for TA!

[Wolfie]
