Okay, just adding some info about the maps sections...

3 Maps from TheDude have been added into the Rope / Shoppers section and they have some EXTREMELY well done texture effects! - These were made a while ago and were sent a while ago too. :) Also, i added "Shoppin' in da city" by Superman a couple of days ago, but neglected to mention it in the news (sorry).

& lastly, if you ppl are wondering... no i haven't got wwp yet, and from the responses i'm hearing i'll probably still buy it simply becuase with my 56k connection i don't want to download a rip. & besides, i'd rather support team17 so they can make a totally awesome 3d worms - The Best Game Ever.   ;)

Worms World Party!

Yup, WWP is out, and to be blunt, i ain't too impressed with it, but i'm sure it will grow on me =)

At the moment, there's 2 types of wormers on WN2 (wwpnet) the legal people who own the game, and the warez puppies who downloaded it, and without a patch the 2 types are unable to play against each other. Now, there is a patch which allows both types to play against each other, and i was gonna put it up for download but i can't, the reason been that it also contains an option to install the whisper patch, which is ultimately very gay and ruins the game somewhat. So i'm not gonna put it up here, or link it, sorry. Saying that tho, at the moment i'm finding it hard to justify shelling out £20 (around $40 USD) for what is basically WA with a few new modes (superope is a laugh but it ain't worth £20).

Ah well, we all knew this anyway, and it is a laugh, but then so is WA... (but but but the training missions in WWP own all!)

Hope that's confused you all enough, cya's =)

(also, v uploaded 2 of my newest maps, a xpert roper map called sikz_Krayzee and my first fort called Industrial, there in the maps section now, so go grab 'em)

Lots of maps added after a couple of hours of working through all of the submissions and then taking screenshots, resizing them, saving & compressing them into jpg's, editing the html, sorting all the maps into their directories, then uploading them and finally here i am writing about it.

So now i've added new maps from FritzGuy, Tjerp, Scoobster, Tribe, WormEater, and older maps from Rumble & Gjam + 1 shopper from TheDude who sent me all his maps a while ago, but i have to get around to doing those soon.

Sorry to those that didn't get their maps chosen, though i did notice alot of good ideas which had promise but needed more design and structure. (it was difficult deciding which made it and which didn't).

ciao.

heyas all, i've been inundated with over 40 terrains and have been going through them steadily, sorry for the delay in getting them into their sections but i'm working out which ones go up and which don't. If your map doesn't make it don't be angry or anything cuase the selection criteria is in place so that we don't bloat the sections with maps that are similar to other maps... I'm going to go through some of the areas and remove some of the ones already there to even it out... (so new maps should be up real soon once i get them properly previewed and sorted). Thanks for your patience!

We got another new member, first person to come into SFX under the new invite only system, we welcome... GJam who is another stupidly good bnger and very cool guy. Welcome to SFX m8, enjoy yourself =) - The members section will be updated soon.

laters.

Vahagn - 26/03/2001
I hope you all set your clocks forward or backward yesterday depending on which side of the world you are living in. :)

Anyway i'd like to say that i'm sorry to see Ironduck and Voodoo leave us and to be honest it was a difficult process which eventuated their departure from sfx. IronDuck said to tell everyone that "he wishes SFX well in the future" ... thx duck. :-)

Also, i received a Fort map from Saiyan Fusion called "Army Fort" - It's been placed into the maps section and is available for download. & btw, as i've mentioned before maps that are sent to me are added IF they are considered good enough. If you think you have a pretty good map send it in. :)

sikz - 22/03/2001
Bad news...

Two members have left us. VoodooChi1d and IronDuck have both left SFX for reasons i ain't willing to say. I wish both of you well for the future, gl guys.

Ok, well i guess i shoulda posted this earlier, but here goes anyway...

We got booted from WACL, mainly due to the fact that we beat TDW and then they denied we beat them, said we cowed to win (which we didn't) and then told us to either void the game or get booted from WACL. Well, we didn't void the game but they then admitted they were lying, unfortunately our original thread on AM report board was deleted... they posted a apology on the board but no WACL official seemed to acknowledge that so we got penalties for that. Then we played OWB and they beat us twice, no cheatin no nothin, they beat us twice perfectly well, but for some reason our accounts on the WACL board weren't working, my pass was in my wormnet.net inbox and they're down, and reapers account wasn't working so we couldn't report so we got booted.

Bugger!

Added Supermans CreepyShopper to the rope/shopper section ::: & btw, many of the maps in there are textured which means their previews don't appear quite like the real thing, so don't judge a book by it's cover. :p

Vahagn - 16/03/2001
I've just finished updating the maps page(s) with new sections: Forts and Miscellaneous Maps.

So if any-one has any good forts, bng's, misc maps or anything that you want to see there, then by all means send it along to me at vahagn@cyberjunkie.com cuase we don't have too many in those areas. I'd really like to get some good maps into those sections asap. [tia]

Also Made a few minor changes to the Files section including updates & adding Utility programs + TheFullWormage.exe. (even though i don't agree with the idea of cheating i'm sure it may be useful to somebody). :)

sikz - 14/03/2001
Rightoh...

We're not full! After talkin with Vahagn we've decided that we are looking for another 2 or 3 members, however we are now invite only so all join requests will be ignored until we remove the form. We're sorry if this disapoints anyone but we feel it is best for the clan, and that's what matters after all...

toodle ooh!.

Vahagn - 13/03/2001
* Old news has been moved into the archives section. :)
* Added Darkmavis to the members page.
* Updated the members page with ICQ flower information.

sikz - 13/03/2001
Heyas, i decided the news page was gettin too big so i've started afresh, old news can be seen here until it's archived properly (i can't do it =)..)

Well good news, we have another new member, a non roper too, a good m8 of mine and a damn good BnGer, DarkMavis. Welcome to SFX m8 and i hope ya enjoy it =). Details will be added to the members section tomorrow.

Now some sad news for you all. We're full. Yup, we have 10 members now, most of which know at least some of the other members very well so it works well, and we plan to keep it this way, the only way we might break this is if we invite someone in but it doesn't look likely that we'll do that, but it's good to keep our options open =). I'm guessin the join form will be removed soon...

And one last thing, i'm gonna put a newb under the spotlight. Someone has told me there's a guy wonderin around wormnet as IronFistxSFXx, now i dunno who the fuck this guy is, and he isn't in anyway associated with us, so if anyone see's him call him as many names as you feel fit =)

cya's!
