  1. First off, let me say I put this topic here because i didn't know where else to put it. Secondly, i'm sure like 99% of you won't care about this, but whatever. I'm retiring from here because I do have other priorities in the real world. I've already left pretty much, because i haven't been active since like last october or something. Anyways, I'm sure most of you who ran with me in my first event still have a bad taste in your mouth from when i went on a ragefest in AIM because I didn't win (I kid you not. Ask anyone who was there.) I sincerely wish everyone the best, and farewell from BobJones23, the rager. :-) (Sidenote: I told one of my good buddies about this site, and he should be joining pretty soon. I think his name will be DanNop or something. I'm sure he'll explain the name in his introduction.)
  2. Well, as no one on this website seems to give a s*it about Minecraft, lock the topic or delete it. I frankly don't care.
  3. Well then. Either way, if no one cares, I just wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts. Screw it, I'm gonna keep posting info as i get it. As of about 5 minutes ago, somehow the entire website was brought down too,
  4. Not at all a car game at all, but I figured I'd start a discussion about it. AS of about 24 hours ago or so, a person/group by the name of "HOICSquad" tweeted "At 2am GMT @Hypixel (a minecraft server for those who don't know) will be punished via DDoS." The page has been suspended from Twitter since. For those who don't know, DDoS stands for Disributed Denial of Service. What happens is a server is overloaded with information sent by the DDoS'er, causing it to crash. The "HOIC" in "HOICSquad" is a reference to the program most likely used to launch this attack, "High-Orbit Ion Cannon" (Google it if you want information.) It started with the 2 biggest servers in Minecraft. Hypixel, one of them, was DDoS'ed and crashed. The majority of server traffic went over to Mineplex, crashing that. It was an unintended side effect of the DDoS. As of 4.5 hrs ago HOICSquad somehow took down the main Mojang (Minecraft's developer) authentication server, shutting down every server in existence. Thats all that has really happened since. Sorry for shoving a lot of info into one post, but if anyone semi-actively plays Minecraft, what are your thoughts?
  5. I just realized that on the 23rd I have a band concert, so I won't be able to make it. Blue Thunder's open.

  7. A bit late, but I wish the best for you (him, to anyone who is reading this, as he has shipped off already). I hope you don't forget about us. I don't think we know each other, but whatever. My sister is also shipping off for the Marine Corps boot camp soon, August 24th I think, and I hope that God (or whoever you believe in) sees to it that you get home okay. I know we will all hope for the same thing. Best of luck to you sir.
  8. Well, as long as it's not too late to sign up, I'll try my best to be there Name: Bob Jones AIM: danielw@visi.com Truck: Blue Thunder Link: http://sim-monsters.com/index.php?/files/file/921-blue-thunder-world-finals-14/

  11. Well, as today is the day of practice, I was hoping to get some practice on for anyone who wanted it. I unfortunately will not be around to time anyone or whatever. Now, I know someone is going to scream at me for still doing this, but I don't care. Anyways, message me on AIM (danielw@visi.com) for server info. EDIT: Never mind, sorry. I cannot get my server up and running, so unless anyone wants to start their server, sorry, i cannot help

  13. Well it's been over a week since it has been open to take, and no one has taken it, so I guess i'll take control. Again, if anyone wants to run it, I will gladly hand the reins to them, but I loved running in this last year, and i'm sure everyone else did too, so i'd hate if this thing ran without a coordinator, let alone not run at all. Unfortunately, I need all the help I can get (officials, timers, streamers, etc.) and I need someone's server, or help on how to run one. I know this is jumping the gun a bit, as, unfortunately, I don't know what is happening in the real world on the important dates. Again, if someone wants control and/or no one thinks I am good at running events, that is ok. I'll just do what I can to at least make sure Summer Throwdown 2 goes on, main coordinator or not.
  14. I would but unfortunately, (no offense) I don't think either of us are too experienced with regulating funruns, and I'd hate to cause this thing to end up as a hated part of Sim-Monsters history. If no one else takes it, I'll do what I can.
