Hello folks,

In a rather typical and slightly cheesy move, I am going to ask you what m4d
h4ndlez (names) you all have when playing Daytonah. I use UGVDQuirky, natch,
but what about you(s)?

Also, the game has a "make a lobby" feature, so may I suggest that we make a
UGVD lobby at some point for a mass get together. We can then all cuss the
disconnections, but admire my gr8 driving skillz :)

Q.

ps. it's not just me, schnide and julie who have daytona is it? otherwise
all this "mass get together" stuff is a bit of an exaggeration.

008. Had a go with Schnide and Electro tonight in a UGVD lobby.
Unfortunately Schnide kept getting disconnected while Electro and I
continued to race. The races that I had with Electro went smoothly.

In reply to everyone this, really - "hooray" so there are quite a few
drivers out there. Now I have to practice this, Quake 3, Unreal Tourny and
continue PSO. Which will go first, sleep? Work? I'm going to lobby for a 30
hour day....

Not sure if this game is really worth forking out an extra £30 just to play
online. It's good, but not *that* good, surely?

To be honest, I'd be happy being able to play *any* driving game online (BF
can't play driving games, so otherwies I'm on my own!)

Also, a) I needed retail therapy at the time (as it is now ordered), and b)
we do use the web browser side of it a fair bit (extension cables come in
somewhat necessary for this!)

Ta-ra,
