Team [Housewares]

ATTENTION: Game Server Upgrade Pending

Quick announcement. Just so everyone knows, we are planning on upgrading the Call of Duty server to version 1.5 on Thursday, February 24, 2005. We’ll make another post once the server has been successfully upgraded.

Although there really isn’t a problem with the 1.4 version, we’re going to ignore the old cliche ”If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, and happily patch away. The Mac version of 1.5 has been released and seems stable at this time. As far as benefits go, we’ll add a new map and some new admin features. Hopefully our newly implemented mods will continue working after the upgrade.

We’ll add an ingame scroller message so that anyone who plays [Housewares] on a regular basis won’t be caught off-guard.

Look for download links here shortly.

Stats for Feb 20, 2005 Are Up!

Whew. I’ve been scrambling to get this site live in time for this week’s stats. Looks like I barely made it. The stats will no longer be posted on that “other” site. That being said, the stats are posted from Saturday Night! Use the links off to the left.

Thanks for checking in Saturday night - Silence, Toe-Tag, zeke, 5.56mm, and iLLneSS (OK, and >X< too !)

The evening didn’t start off too well, but it finished with some great evenly balanced matches at around 3:15am, or so. I stopped playing for a little bit to spectate some people that were just a little “too good”. I think that I’m just gonna start kicking people when I even just slightly suspect they may be cheating. I’ve seen people get lucky, but when someone is consistently getting over half of the teams kills themselves, they’re either cheating or really, really good. In either case, they don’t need to be playing here. If they are actually just that good, they should go play on a clan server somewhere with folks of their own skill level (or same aimbots). “When in doubt, kick’em out!”

Sorry, just a little venting. Anyways, like I said, the stats are up. Here’s some noteables:

zeke didn’t move the MG42s as much I expected. He did get the most Nagant(Sniper) kills though.

Silence, oddly enough, had the most Nagant(Sniper) deaths.

5.56mm grabbed top honors for MG42 kills. A slight change for the guy who’s know for hiding in the bushes.

iLLneSS had the most Grenade kills.

Ash won just about every other award there was to win. He bashed 59 times. Not bad!

Toe-Tag won the only other award left, for highest loss streak, coming in at a phenominal 32.

(If there was an award for shortest time played, >X< would have taken that one)

Thanks for playing guys. See ya next week.

Welcome to Housewares

Yeah, we’re trying to get something going here. Obviously, not finished yet. We’ll keep trying as time becomes available.
