Behold - The DGS is back!

(This is a double post of what's on dgs.aphelionsites.net)

http://dgs.aphelionsites.net / http://dgs.sytes.net

But probably not how you're expecting it.

Instead of an outright, pay-to-play LAN party like we did in the past, I am reorganizing the DGS into the first Galactic Empire...no...I mean I am reorganizing it to give some more direction to our GarageLANs this summer. I know I am starting late, but I think it will work. Rombus and I are converting one of the now-vacant rooms in the house into a LAN room. We will have pictures of the status as we go along. Still have quite a ways to go. I know you're thinking "Aww...another website I have to go to?", but I plan to put an RSS feed from this site to darkmercury.net, so news from this site should pop up there too.

Basically, I figure that we can have LANs when and where we want, post them here and get back into LANs. It's been a while since we've had one and I hope this page will lead to more. I figure we can call ourselves the Dead Gamers' Society. Wonder where I came up with that one?

I removed the sponsors from the website on account that we have none, and replaced it with the members page. I pre-registered most people already. IM me for your passwords. Once you log in, you can post entires and change your password and account options.

This is a work in progress so stay tuned.

LAN Parties Status

Some people (mostly Rick) have expressed interest in Whempy's LAN, April 22-23, and even Quakecon, August 11-14. Please tell me or Rick if you are interested. Thank you.

Dan, start working to get the time in August off. You have been promoted. Make it happen this year.

This is why we cannot have nice things

Recently I noticed that Tim's Trancender website (http://swiftwulf.werewolfsmg.net) was...populated by some great philosophers discussing religion over such things as free online poker and texas hold-em. My first impression was to (of course) join in the conversation but then I realized the gravity of the situation. These philosophers seemed to care more about poker and websites than love and truth! This could mean only one thing: Out there, in the interweb, there must be an evil mastermind attempting to destroy the paradise that is pmachine. Not only is this mastermind completely and totally evil to the core, but it also attempts to stimulate intelligent conversation with you, spouting such wisdom as

"Our belief in any particular natural law cannot have a safer basis than our unsuccessful critical attempts to refute it." by internet poker.

Now I am finding this laughable and appalling at the same time. Whether I am appalled so much that I am laughing, or laughing so much that I am appalled, I may never know. What I do know is that swiftwulf's site got hit, and so did darkmercury.net/gaming So now I am thinking...why isn't darkmercury.net worthy of having the world's greatest philosophers debating their wisdom over a lovely game of internet poker? And the only answer I have is that my comment entry page is not the pmachine standard. It does not include a spot for your email address, while all the other sites do. And so, by this simple truth, I have come to the conclusion that these evil masterminds are not educated philosophers, but mere spam bots, algorithms even, that were defeated by a much more serious, more evil mastermind: yours truely.
