I trialed this game not so long ago and it rocks. I am currently installing a copy on the server. Really, if any of you fancy seeing ust how different a first person mutliplayer game can be then lets make a date to play this. Basically, you're on a swanky cruise ship owned by the mysterious Mr X who likes to host a real live game of murder. You must take care of your physical, emotional and spiritual needs whilst on the ship including eating drinking reading defacating etc whilst avoiding being murdered. You are not allowed to get weapons out in public and if you get caught you get sent to the brig. You can change your clothes etc to give your murderer the slip and all the while you are looking for your target too. Very Agatha Christie and very funny. My personal favourite is to sneak into the kitchen and steal a big old cooking pot then bash my target over the back of the head while they admiring the sunset from the deck. Post here if you fancy it

open steam and go to browse games and you'll see the free game demo thing which offers to let you pre-load. Preload the game then on friday at around 1pm PST, you will be able to start playing the game. can you see my ship gameserver?

Subject: alternatively....

you can add the following server to your favrourites (remember to turn all your filters off) montreal.globalcs.org:27016 connecting to my server will then prompt the preload of the demo - only a few hours to go now till free play time I suggest you all play right the way through the training level before starting to play in earnest - its a very different game not sure how my server will cope with two game servers running - hopefuly it should be ok so long as one is empty but text me if you're on there and its running like a dog

remember to restart steam between downloading and playing the ship - not sure why you need to do this but it works if you're having trouble starting up the game ok, I'll be here off and on - skype me if you wanna play
