Bad News QW HOPw server may be going down sooner or later since Nep no longer is with that ISP. We will wait and see on the news from Target and Nep. But for now make use of it.

Level e1m3 played at Clan MA server HOPw 52 Clan MA 37: MA.Pee Pee 22 frags (ping 111), Muad'Dib.HOPw 18 frags (ping 166), CrazNDhead.HOPw 13 frags (ping 376), Clipper.HOPw 22 frags (327 ping), Dforce.HOPw 9 frags (367 ping), MA.Kris 8 frags (97 ping), MA.Skywalker 7 frags (ping 78), MA.Azrael 0 frags (ping 418).

Level e4m3 played at Clan HOPw server HOPw 117 Clan MA 33: Fluffbunnie.HOPw 68 frags (ping 37), Alex.HOPw 19 frags (ping 220), MA.Pee Pee 17 frags (ping 144), Zork.HOPw 17 frags (ping 319), Target.HOPw 13 frags (ping 188), MA.Skywalker 7 frags (ping 260), MA.EZJack 6 frags (ping 271) and MA.Kris 3 frags (ping 173).

Please take into account Ping varies usually 10 to 60 ping on most players any more and then it is more or less a lagged player. Check the Results page under Clan HOPw to get the write up and see the pics.

Clan HOPw vs. Clan MA tonight at 9pm eastern time at their server 206.84.176.29

Starting HOPw's e4m3 Zork, Target, Killjoy and ?, e1m3 Muad'Dib, Clipper, Dforce and ? Players that can fill the last spot on each level Craz, Alex, Madaxe, Weez and Bear. Be on ICQ prior to match to organize, chain of command assuming I can't get connected Me, Zork, Killjoy, Muad'Dib. Help organize in that order depending on who is online.

Orchid Righteous has just released there new Orchid Righteous 3d Voodoo 2 3dfx graphic accelerator

New Clanring 3.11 mod is out.!

Happy Birthday Mrs. Bear!!

Check out Bear's updated web page! New pics posted.

Don't forget about the HOPw QuakeWorld server start meeting and playing there since UT servers are down.

Practice went pretty well last night for the e4m3'ers, Target 1, Killjoy 3 and Zork 4, with Alex 2 (if he shows) will be the players. If Alex doesn't show then Bear, Craz, DForce or MadAxe can play 2.

E1M3 wasn't done right and we will need to practice that tonight. Muad, DForce and Clipper are playing that one, with either Craz, Bear, MadAxe or Weez playing this, whoever shows at practice should probably get the start,

Practice will be at 8pm central time again. 129.116.25.235 port 26002 if Muad is able to get it up. If not possibly try 129.116.73.52 or 129.116.73.40 the bc servers. ICQ Killjoy and he will direct you to the planned practice. I won't be there tonight and will admin on Thursday if we happen to play on our server.

Seeking, dedicated Quake Server to host HOPw Clanring site, interested parties should email me.

Muad'Dib said that practice should still be a go for tonight so show up at 8pm central time. And there is a slight possibility the match will still be hosted there or another UT ip on Thursday, but first and possibly second match will be at Clan MA server.

Practice again Tuesday and Wednesday nights at 129.116.25.235 and possibly a different port if it gets set up. 8pm Central time to go over e4m3 and 9pm Central time for e1m3.

Monday's practice didn't go so well, we need a lot more practice! Server crashed then know one came back. E4m3 will be played by Zork, Killjoy, Target and Alex with Bear and Clipper as the subs in case someone has bad lag or gets disconnected. E1m3 will be played by Fluffbunnie, Muad'Dib, Clipper and I, however Bear or Craz or DForce can play for me if they make the practice or get with Fluff and Muad'Dib.

I finally did the background in jpg so the Netscape browsers would finally get to see them, for some reason Netscape couldn't see jfif files which I had been using for my backgrounds, now the only problem is the area around the music box for the Netscape users and a button or two, just use ie4 so much simpler.

Practice tonight at 8pm Central time for e4m3 with Zork and Target. Any members who want to play e4m3 make that time and Zork assigns the areas.

Practice for e1m3 at 9pm Central time with Muad'Dib who assigns the areas, Fluff bunnie is also playing this one but can't make practice. So two openings here, Weezer wants to play this one so if he shows he will be in on it and if no one else plays I will play it but we will need backups especially considering my lag and possibility of not getting online with my isp msn, hehe.

Looks like Fluffbunnie and Muad'Dib are two of the four playing e1m3 at their server.... so two more openings on each level..

Check out the button page.

HOPw's try to start playing at the QuakeWorld HOPw server 206.31.50.25 Nep and Target put a lot of work into getting a HOPw QuakeWorld server up and running and it seems no one is using it.

Got the reply match will be at 9pm on Thursday January 22nd, 1998 but don't know what time zone yet.

Muad'Dib and I went to their server 206.84.176.29 and tried it out, I actually was doing ok with very little lag compared to Fotr-HOPw, We played with 4 or 5 MA's and they were mostly in low 300's for ping, however Skywalker says that he is in the 100's and has 3 others that are in the 100 ping area. I believe there are about 8 Ma's.

Weezer made this banner, it was only displayed for a day or so because it takes awhile to load. So if you like it grab it and use on your pages.

Well It looks like we are a Quake 2 Clan now too, hehe. Well kind of we have a Quake 2 Captain, DForce is his name. But we have no home map until someone converts e4m3 and some people join Quake 2 HOPw. So if you want to move to Quake 2 division let me know.

I have updated and corrected a lot of links and images so there shouldn't be too much left to do other then each HOPw players page.

I apologized for my behavior at Fotr-HOPw already once and that the last time I'm going to talk about it. I said I was sorry, I was frustrated with lag and what I did was no big deal to me, obviously it upset a few and I said sorry if that wasn't good enough what else can I do. When I give warning I mean it so don't keep harassing me.

So Please take the time to click on Clan HOPw and go check to see if I have your current email, ICQ and Web page addresses listed on the Clan HOPw roster page. Ledfoot should be credited with the design of the information on the roster page. I really liked how he set up his page. I was getting tired of going to each person's page to get ICQ or email addresses.

Also each HOPw member has a page at this site so send me your favorite wallpaper or background music or whatever you want to say on that page to introduce yourself and your taste in your page and it will be posted. Most of the pages have the bare minimum, but I will fix it up to your tastes if you take the time to send me what you want on it. If you have your own web page it will be linked there, if you don't have a web page I will host what you want on that page as long as it doesn't get too big......

On another not.... Nicobolas would like you all to go to my links page and take a trip to his new web page. He is a big fan of HOPw and would really appreciate the visitors to his page. He has worked hard to create his page and wants some company to visit, so pour that coffee and take a trip to NICO land.

Qfront is probably going to come out with a new release for Quake 2. Necro emailed me and said that he is working on putting together a team of Delphi programmers and releasing a new version of Qfront assuming they can all decide on who will do what.

I do have all my email addresses working now. Just took a few minutes to get the settings set in ie4. I do have a sound bug though when I go to my links page ie4 keeps repeating the woooo sound and it should only do it once.

It looks like Blues News and Redwoods each got new logo's for their pages.. Where's the HOPw artist, hehe
