Tall Guy Posted June 29, 2002 Posted June 29, 2002 I just thought I would let people know (who don't already!) about the GF IRC channel #grim-fandango on DALnet. Thrik explains it better then me so this little guide about how to get connected is taken from his site, http://www.fusion.grimfandango2.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ IRC Chat.. So you want to get involved with the community in real time, eh? It's easy! Simply follow these steps and you'll be connected in no time! Go to the mIRC website and pick up the latest version. Open it up, take a look at the obvious options. For example your name, etc. Set them up, press ok, then close mIRC up completely. Make the name original!! Click this link: Connect me to DALNET! Now you should have an open copy of mIRC, and be connected to the DALNET IRC server. This is the hardest part (yes still is amazingly easy) Type this into the thin bar at the bottom of the screen: /join #grim-fandango Now, if there's anyone around you'll be able to talk and enjoy the people's company
Huz Posted June 30, 2002 Posted June 30, 2002 If you see someone called something like 'ADKWGVO' in there, make sure you say 'hello'! You can converse with those people for hours. Of course, the conversation may not be very stimulating.
Gabez Posted June 30, 2002 Posted June 30, 2002 Hee! iscvchiwdf XTF^ARG and sdf_88 are also good to chat to. (Blatant advertisement: go to #joeythefish or die!)
Tall Guy Posted July 1, 2002 Author Posted July 1, 2002 well i'll let you advertise this once, it is a classy channel after all!
ZaXeriaw Posted July 6, 2002 Posted July 6, 2002 Take it easy Gabez. You know I'm a psycho! You can't sleep well before you're dead!! Muhahahaha!
GendoTheGreat Posted July 10, 2002 Posted July 10, 2002 I downloaded ICQ, but I can't figure out how to make it work. I think it's broken. Maybe one of you crazy kids can tell me how to make this new-fangled techo-whatsit of yours to work right.
Tall Guy Posted July 11, 2002 Author Posted July 11, 2002 you're supposed to be downloading mIRC not ICQ! Get mIRC here --> http://www.mirc.com and then just follow the guide.
GendoTheGreat Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 Ok thanks. BTW, did you get those backgrounds I sent you? If so, are they what you wanted?
Tall Guy Posted July 11, 2002 Author Posted July 11, 2002 yeah they're great, i managed to put up year 2 the other night but ive still gotta put years 3 and 4 up some time soon. btw did u send year 4 cos i dont think i got it.
GendoTheGreat Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 I have most of tomorrow off, so I'll get to it then.
Tall Guy Posted July 11, 2002 Author Posted July 11, 2002 Thanks man, dont worry I'll credit you on the site
Tall Guy Posted July 11, 2002 Author Posted July 11, 2002 why the hell did you think you where getting all these screens for me?! http://rustyanchor.grimfandango2.com
GendoTheGreat Posted July 11, 2002 Posted July 11, 2002 Thats your site? Nifty. I thought you wanted those b\grounds to use on other people's sites, like thrik.
GendoTheGreat Posted July 12, 2002 Posted July 12, 2002 Check your email, Tall. I've sent you year 4.
scabb Posted July 23, 2002 Posted July 23, 2002 IRC. WHERE THE N00BZ ARE MOCKED. I don't mock n00bz. Only MEAN PEOPLE DO.
Thrik Posted September 15, 2002 Posted September 15, 2002 Although most of you probably think I'm dead, you can find me or my little bot friend (Thrik[gone]) which fills in for me when offline on IRC. The only problem is that I happen to think Dalnet is crappy, so I use Gamesnet. If you want to get a channel on Gamesnet it would probably get more people than on Dalnet. We could invite the people from #jediknight and such over. Anyway, you can find me on irc.gamesnet.net in #gamesnet or (better) #jediknight. Click to connect. Also I promise than eventually I will make a 'comeback' with Grim Fandango Fusion. I've been a bit of an idiot by not updating it and leaving Tall Guy to do all the work. I'll probably redesign it, then work on sorting out all the sections. I've let myself get too preoccupied with other projects and have let GF slide due to there never being any amazing news about it. Sorry.

Thrik Posted October 27, 2002 Posted October 27, 2002 We don't use Dalnet anymore, we use Gamesnet - don't you check the news?
