Topic: Liquid Gaming's Readme.

You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend.

So you have questions about Liquid Gaming. A lot of people do, let’s see if I can’t help a bit.

First off: Connecting.

Easiest way is to grab GameSpy Arcade and search for the server by name.

My preferred way is GameSpy 3d, as it’s not near as clunky as Arcade. The server’s IP address is 207.190.218.67, port: 27015.

Possibly the second easiest is just to use “Connect LiquidGaming.org” from the Counter-Strike console. I’d say it’s the most foolproof, but there are quite a bit of fools out there.

Next up: Maps.

We do have quite a bit of maps, most of which aren’t standard. At the moment, they are in one large (16mb, sorry.) file. This will be fixed as soon as possible.

Instructions are fairly straightforward.
All .wad files go into your main cs dir
All .bsp files go into your cs/maps dir
All .txt files go into your cs/maps dir
All .wav files go into your cs/sound/ambience dir
All .tga files go into your cs/gfx/env dir

Next! Admins

We’re here to help. There are three of us, Nem-X, BlackMage and myself. We are usually on the server, camping the boards, or in the other IRC server, channel #liquidgaming.
Some of us idle in the EverCrest IRC, but not all the time.

More Admins may be added in the future. Do not ask to be an admin, we will approach you. Asking generally makes us skip over you in the selection process.

Up to bat? Cheaters.

We don’t like you. We hate your guts. And so do most other players. You will be caught, and you will be kicked and/or banned.
I wield a mighty banstick, and I am not afraid to use it.

The Webby-Sitey

We’re working on it. Give us time. That’s about all I can say. You can make accounts to post on the actual LG message boards, and I’m hoping for them to see more use later on.
Be on the look out for news, we’re thinking of new things to do, and don’t be afraid to cstrike@liquidgaming.org drop us a line.
Any feedback is good feedback. Even negative feedback. Cleaning the gene pool is fun.

Playing Times

They’re a bit hectic right now, I know. Due to bandwidth, we’ll either be dropping the server from 9am – 5pm Eastern, or highly discouraging use.

On the weekdays, no games from 9am – 5pm Eastern Standard Time. Any other times are fine.

On the weekends, there is no time limit.

Conduct and Sprays.

Don’t be an asshole. Do not whine every time you die. Do not bitch about the map rotation. If you want something changed, email us. Post on the forums, anything works. Just don’t bitch.

Sprays. No porn. That’s about it. Use your head, people. Your brain, not your penis.


Now, uh.. Bump this alot in hopes Drys will stick it.

I dunno.

While LG may be the unofficial gathering place of CS playing EC'ers, this thread seems kinda inappropriate to be sticky on the EC boards, as it doesn't pertain directly to them.

Does Counterstrike work with Blue Shift?

I went to buy Half Life the other day so I could play Counterstrike, but Best Buy only had two versions of it. A big boxed set with Half Life, Blue Shift, Counterstrike, Team Fortress, and some other one I can't think of for sixty bucks, and then a smaller twenty buck one with Blue Shift and Team Fortress.

But I wasn't sure if it needed the original Half Life or if Blue Shift would work, so I didn't buy it.

When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

I honestly don't know how to answer that. Did it say Blue Shift was a stand-alone copy?

If so, then it might work.

This is my general goal except in de_boatseason. There, I generally kick ass with the deagle. I don't think I've ever had a losing record there after I started using it, even though I normally suxor on every other map.

I have much more fun in a blind shootout than I do going 40 - 0 against a full clan.

Shootouts are fun, god damnit. I love the roar of Carbines and AKs.
