New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Arynis - 12-27-2011
New Year's Eve is coming up, and what better way to celebrate it than to party in the IRC channel and start the New Year with a bang?
Therefore, I hereby invite everyone in the Neo Ark Cradle IRC channel to spend the New Year's Eve together! Our first one together, even.
Server: DarkMyst
Channel: #neoarkcradle
If you are new to IRC or don't know how to connect, check out Kitten's excellent guide: <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://neoarkcradle.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=593">viewtopic.php?f=1&t=593</a><!-- l -->
What can you expect:
The event lasts from roughly of the evening of the 31st until everyone passes out from exhaustion the next day. There's no fixed date; just enjoy yourselves.
Program yet to be decided apart from general chatting; check back for updates. If you have ideas or services to provide (e.g., streaming), please let us know in this thread!
Who's invited?
Like I said above, we welcome everyone! While we highly encourage our current members to join in, we don't mind guests or non-members to tag along, as long as you aren't around to cause trouble.
What are the rules?
The gist of the forum rules, basically. While we are more laid back and lenient about the rules in the IRC chat, the basics still apply. No attacking other people, no trolling, no causing trouble. Troublemakers will be booted out.
The channel will be moderated by myself, NeoArkadia and Geno. If you have any questions during the duration of the event, just send us a query on IRC. (Here's how to send a query.)
Anything else?
We can to keep the party fairly simple yet fun. Hope to see you guys around!

What an interesting idea this is. Will try my best to find time to join. x)
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Kahun - 12-27-2011
I'll be sure to troll, make trouble, and attack. Parties need to be kinkier, dammit. >.>;;
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Lord_Zedd - 12-27-2011
I'm in. Not like I'll do anything special that day. I honestly think I won't. Besides, you need some SPANISH in there xD
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - a-hole - 12-27-2011
^lol.
Been a while since I've ben on an IRC; not sure how my comp would handle it, though, so that might be a problem.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Arynis - 12-27-2011
It shouldn't be too performance costly, A-Hole. mIRC ran pretty fabulously with an 486 for me back in like... 2000? Dunno how old your computer is, but it shouldn't be an issue. You can always give it a test run to see how it works, if you are unsure.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Lord_Zedd - 12-27-2011
It also helps you can use mibbit. Doesn't need to be on your PC itself, and you can access it from the web.
For those with Android Phones and want to join in on the fun on New Year's Eve, AndroIRC is a great IRC app to use. Just program in the DarkMyst Server and the NeoArkCradle channel and you are good to go.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Lia - 12-27-2011
I usually celebrate with my mum and sis, so it's more possible for me to join after midnight, which I really intend to do. Here in BG all kind of holidays just must be celebrated with the entire family and even relatives if possible, and excuses are hardly accepted. xD
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Arynis - 12-27-2011
That's alright Lia. No need to worry about arriving early or late. We aren't really pressuring people to join per se. If you want (or have to) spend time with family/friends/real life events, that's perfectly okay. I just wanted an opportunity for people who aren't going anywhere or want to celebrate the new year with the fellow members. <!-- s

Hey guys I can stream stuff for you. I'll try to be around (I think I'm going to a party + animu new years speshuls airing that day) even though I might be busy that day.
Here's the stuff I can stream for you:
Anime - Currently I've got all the 5D's episodes, Madoka Magica, Persona 4: The Animation 1-12, Tiger&Bunny, the last third of Gurren Lagann and Fate/Zero's first half all loaded up on my comp. I also have a couple episodes of the campy Sailor Moon live action series since Miss Dream started subbing the series. I can stream other series, just give me a heads up quickly so I can get them ready in time.
Visual Novels - And yes, I'll let you pick the choices for those for lulz. Currently I've got Steins;gate and Hateful Boyfriend all loaded up, but I can get more.
Video Games - Anything that isn't above a DS technology wise, because my computer will lag like crap if I try to stream anything else.

Depending on what I'm doing that night, I'll prolly be there.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Ragna - 12-28-2011
I probably won't be on New Years Eve, but I can probably jump in New Years day for a while. Only thing is that my IRC is cheapo no pay because I AM a cheapo no pay guy. lol
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - CedaЯMill - 12-28-2011
Remember guys, we span multiple time-zones. So, even if you can't see in your -own- New Year with the forum, you can share in the joy of your fellow members stepping into 2012. For example, our European members will be hitting midnight anywhere from 4 to 10 hours prior to our US members (depending on the relative locations). So, all hope is not lost if you have major plans for the evening.

Won't probably be here by the time, but may join y'all next day. It's been ages since last time I used mIRC, gotta be fun.
I'll drink one more for NAC members. Olé!
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Kahun - 12-28-2011
Pfft. Nobody here has New Years earlier than me. Unless you're Australian. In which case you just might.

There's also Pangga. And Vagrant. I haven't seen Vagrant in ages. Shame, he was a funny guy. <!-- s

Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Raku - 12-28-2011
That sounds pretty fun.
Vagnant's been around...
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Arynis - 12-28-2011
He is? I haven't seen him in IRC at the very least, so I assumed he was gone. ^^; His account hasn't been active since late September, though...
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - MorningMoon - 12-28-2011
I'll try to get here, but i got a wedding to go to that day. (Yes, the guy's getting married on December 31. He earned the right to pick a tacky date since his last wife stabbed him with a kitchen knife though)
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - 闇の女王ヤミ - 12-29-2011
Cool! I am on a regular family party, but I will pop in to recieve my EotY dose of trout slaps from Kahu - and give out some random fluffy New Year slaps in return ^^ <!-- s:hihihi: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/NAC_Smiley_Pack_Default/hehe.gif" alt=":hihihi:" title="Hihihi" /><!-- s:hihihi: -->
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - MephistoDP - 12-29-2011
I will stream Sonic Generations along with any other games in my collection until I grow tired/need a break.
Also, for those who own a Wii. Mario Kart Wii, and/or Super Smash Bros. Brawl, join us for a friendly online race/brawl. If you are interested, place your MKW/SSBB Friend code here or the IRC and then drop by the IRC to inform us that you want a race/brawl.
Note: I might stream us playing, but only if my internet can handle it. I have to stream AND be on Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for this, so streaming is a maybe.
Here are my friend codes:
MKW: (Don't have game with me atm. Will post later)
SSBB: 4425-6581-1457

On behalf of those who are a bit too socially anxious for parties, I'll shyly wish a happy new year's from here. ^^;
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Ryusaki - 12-30-2011
Have a good 2012, y'all!
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Lance99 - 12-31-2011
Seems I'm going into Jersey with the family, and I probably won't take my laptop because of how its fan stopped working (using an actual fan to cool it >_>), so I'll just wish everyone a good 2012 now. =]
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - GoldenUmi - 12-31-2011
Not sure if I'll be there. I have to work on both New Years Eve and New Years Day. <!-- s^o) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/NAC_Smiley_Pack_Default/eyebrow.png" alt="^o)" title="Hmm..." /><!-- s^o) -->

I won't be joining so I hope you all have a good time and Happy New Year everyone!!
P.S. Umi that sucks! I hope you get double time for working such major days (I used to when I worked in a small store and had to work Christmas Eve, Boxing Day, New Years Eve/Day).

No, my job sucks. I don't get paid a drop for working the holidays.
Oh well, I won't try to make a pity party out of it. I get out at 7:00 anyhow, so there will be a little time.

I might get on if I haven't passed out on some dirty floor.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - TheLifeStreamer - 12-31-2011
I've got plans, but I might drop by briefly.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Arynis - 12-31-2011
Welp, so it would seem the chat got split in two thanks to a *.net *.split.
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - k-w - 12-31-2011
Why am I not surprised that first time I use irc something like that happens.
So how we put it back together?
Re: New Year's Party for everyone! Click for details. - Arynis - 12-31-2011
Basically:
Quote:When the connection between A and C is severed, users that were connected to other servers which are no longer reachable on the network appear to quit. For example, if user Sara is connected to server A, user Bob is connected to server B, and user Joe is connected to C, and C splits, or disconnects, from A, it will appear to Joe as if Sara and Bob both quit (disconnected from the network), and it will appear to both Sara and Bob that Joe quit. However, Joe can still talk to anyone on the same server C. This happens because the servers in which they are connected are informed of the change in the network status, and update their local information accordingly to display the change.
Later, server C may relink (reconnect) to a server on the network and the users who appeared to have quit will rejoin; the process of sending this updated information to all servers on the network is called a netburst (or sync).
We'll just have to wait until the networks reconnect, at which point we'll rejoin the people from the other network. Sometimes this happens fairly quickly (like within 5 minutes after the netsplit) but sometimes it can take much longer. So. Yeah.
