I've played an hour or two ago but I didn't recognize any familiar usernames nor did anyone respond when I said hello, assuming that there is someone from PF playing.

Sorry I couldn't make it yesterday. If anyone is interested I'm going to setup an Enemy Territory or UT2004 server on my linux box. Tell me which game you want to play and I'll set something up. I want to test the server at 6:00pm eastern and start the official game around 7:00-7:30pm.

Server Specs:

Gentoo Linux 2004.1
Athlon XP 2600
512MB DDR 2700
7200 RPM Segate
1.5MB DSL
