The great folks at TGC have agreed to visit the IRC once again to partake in a Q&A session. Show up if you have a burning question to get off your chest. So far the following members have confirmed:-

Lee Bamber
Rick Vanner
Mike Johnson
Richard Davey(probably)

Its at 9pm on the 26th Septermber(This coming Monday). Thats 9pm British time mind!.

To get on to the irc, you need an irc client. I suggest mIRC, which is found at www.mirc.com and there is a demo available.

The server you need to join is irc.devhat.net and the channel is #darkbasic.

When you join the devhat server, you will be automatically inserted into the #lobby channel. The people here will be able to help you further.

Oh, and it's a small dl too

Anyhoo, I like the Q&A, and it sounds like we have full-house again

World Time Zone thingos... Real simple - shows major city times, as well as GMT time at the bottom, and from there, easy to work out what time it'll be for you.

Anyway... I'm at 6am, so that sucks royally.

Of course not. The next day I'll be dropping by the white house and videoconferencing with all the major world leaders. And I just sent off an email to John Carmack containing the source code for Doom 4. I'm just telling you so you know, that's all.

I will probably open up the question registration service at 8pm BST.

To add a question you need to PM the bot, which is named "Pris" with this

!add Is Lee a blitz secret agent

Nothing else is needed, but i do suggest that you replace the sample question with a more appropriate one.

Just so I can be the coolest person EVAR, I have started uploading my log before anyone else.
In fact I've done it so quickly, we're only on question [censored] out of (currently) 78.

If you've joined the channel late and/or the TGC team slip into a coma, this should make for some quiet reading. Apart from teh sound when your head a splode fom 1337ness.

But I no clear up teh mess, for I iz prezident of teh m00n.
Ask DBAlex, he's my janit0r.
