yes i know it was a very foolish moment, though i did back my email up, didnt think to try and back counter strike up, again a moment of madness, not unlike you getting a western digital harddrive again so right let me get this straight we are playing on the 22 at 20:00 gmt onwards, have you added your server to the list of steam servers ... oh and farcry has sweet graphic fps but its VERY processor intensive and to me wasnt that impressed but then again i should maybe try again at some point . am trying splinter cell pandora assult supposed to be quite good as well, right back to fucking programming, why did i decide to do a homer for a mate, it just wont ever go away ...

No Del, 10pm BST is 22:00 BST - british summer time - if we work on GMT its gonna get real confusing real quick - esp as you can't do your 24 hour clock yet Hey, for this machine you should PARTITION your hard drive into system and data so that the next time you scrub the dirty little bastard, you don't lose your games etc (and believe me there's always a next time). Presumably you still have your cd key for CS 1.5 so it should just be a case of getting hold of a download of the game

at mine will be me plus guest sniper col plus mex and fixx.. 4 (but only 2 with CZ) maps for 1.6 are in steam dir but not had a chance to sort out a map pack yet... so 1.6 could get boring. I'm up for warming up a bit earlier 8-9pm (?) maybe we should start with 1.5 (to do the other maps) then jump to 1.6 for a contrasting finish...? stix not around for night so we'll get his 2 machines updated for next time... look forward to some lieut drex action

warmup is fine - only issue is with del not being able to play 1.5

then 1.6 will be much more fun... may have a go in my lunch break tomorrow...

i dont have a license key as i never bought the thing, so lets all play 1.6 fab.! i am looking forward to meeting you all tomorrow night, dont have headset though so you wont be able to hear my innane jabber!! see you tomorrow guys dex

hmmm, so you don't have a cd key for any half-life game? Are you sure you can play 1.6? Have you tried? Perhaps you should pop out and pick up blue shift just to be sure?

Okay, I have a legit copy of of CZ which I assume legitimises me to play 1.6 so if that's what we're gonna be playing in future I'm happy to pass on one of my collection of 1.5 cd keys to dex for tomorrow night which he can then use to upgrade to 1.6 (or not) but hoew do I know if the one I'm passing on is the one I'm using or one of my spares that I'm not using and I'm a bit pissed right (due to Wex) now so probably typing shite but I can't see what's preventing dex from playing 1.6 apart from 16 quid which isn't really that much especially when it means he'll be able to KILL KILL KILL which is after all the whole purpose of whatever the fuck this is all about. It's not like we haven't all had thousands of quids worth of free software from here and there so whats the problem? hi everyone, have I missed the point entirely?

in the faq it cites examples of where keys can be banned by their servers, steam accounts potentially can stop cd keys being passed about, i know i had a problem using my cd key when i had inadvertanly created two steam accounts (much to the disgust of nix i might add) anyway i had to use the correct steam account as the cd key had already been allocated to it, so in short if the key has been used before it cant be used again, unless someone wants to correct me on that one.
