| Woohoo Clan HOPw won 169 to 70 over Clan MA. Good job HOPw's. Clan
MA was the classiest clan we have played so far. They were very patient while waiting for
Fluffbunnie to connect to thier server. I was less patient so I sent CrazNDhead. I never
heard one word of complaining from Clan MA. They had big time problems connecting to our
server and kept trying and never quit until finally we worked the problems out. It wan't
the fairest match on either server based on pings but everyone just played it and didn't
complain which is very amazing at least in my experience so far. 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

| HOPw in Clan WV Tourney starting
Feb 1-8. First round vs. Clan DarkWater. Contact Killjoy.HOPw if you plan to play in the
first round he is running these matches. 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. |

| Wow some really bad news! Quake at the University of Texas is canned
for us outsiders, go here to this web page to get the EXPLANATION. So the Quake HOPw server is no
more, :(!!! 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. |

| Well probably put my foot in my mouth again, but if you want to see
my Quake 2 comments there up on the CGN News Page. 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. |

| Match is confirmed January 22nd Thursday at 9pm Eastern Time. First
match will be on e1m3 at their server 206.84.176.29 Second Match will be at our server
129.116.25.235 on e4m3 with Zork and Target getting first dibs on that level. They are
sending there lpbs to our server and will put their middle pingers vs. us at their server. 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.

| We got challenged yesterday and I sent back a reply that we would
accept the match and gave our conditions. So we are just waiting for there reply from
[MA]skywalker of Clan Militant Apocalypse. 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. |

| Well I'm moving the Clan HOPw page! I just can't stand the slowness
of Geo cities and I hate the add windows popping up. So Clan HOPw is moving to Virginia
thanks to Jim.HOPw and his Friend. I appreciate the web space! Thanks Guys. 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. |

pacific time it is hard to get on MSN it is always busy, usually takes me 20 minutes to
get online. MadAxe has updated his page and I have been correcting most of my sound file
links. I will try to get the missing image links corrected soon |

| Welcome to 1998! Jim.HOPw had a blast the other
day possibly playing Quake 2 against John Carmack on the ID server. 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 |
