What happened during the Carling Cup final?

[Greg Bernhardt]

Just a reminder we have a chat this morning. I plan on opening the room up a bit early as I need to be somewere at 10am. So I'll open it at 9am.

If anyone wants to try voice chats you will just need to download and install the Team Speak client and have speakers or headphones and a Microphone.
I use it for gaming and it works good.
Here is the link to download Team Speak.
http://www.goteamspeak.com/?page=downloads
It is freeware and all you will need is the Client.
There is a public server called "Alpha Teamspeak" whoever wants to try voice chats can meet there. There will be a room called PF Chat and the password will be "physics"
The password will keep the riff-raff out.

[RetardedBastard]

It is central time

 

[RetardedBastard]

It is central time

Thanks! :)

But seriously, CENTRAL time? I think those New Yorkers are going to throw a fit when they hear there are actually other time zones besides Eastern :)

 

[||spoon||]

When I go to https://www.physicsforums.com/chat/flashchat.php"
I get a message saying that:

The page your looking for can't be found.
Please go back to the homepage: https://www.physicsforums.com/
Physics Forums

I mean, I might have been a wee bit over-eager and tried to chat an hour earlier than the posted time... could that be the reason for that message? Or is it because I'm using http://www.firefox.com" ?

 

[George Jones]

Thanks! :)

I'm on the other side of eastern, Atlantic , so it starts at 11 a.m. my time.

 

[sas3]

I have the voice server up, however I will be going to sleep at about 9:30 CST. I will leave the channel running if anyone wants to try it out.

 

[||spoon||]

Is there another hour before this starts? DAMMIT! lol. I am in eastern Australia, it's 1 in the morning here... is it going to start at 2am for me? i thought it was nowish... DAM daylight savings =(

Australia... mmhmmm sounds real nice right about now... It's cloudy, and cold, and raining non-stop where I am.

p.s. Thank God Howard's gone :)

 

[||spoon||]

where abouts are you from? and more importantly... do i have to wait until 2am my time (about another 30 mins) for the chat to start? or is it supposed to have started already?

P.s. I am not too fond of Rudd ;p

 

[Evo]

Chat will start in 30 minutes.

 

[||spoon||]

Kool thanks evo =).

When i tried figuring it out i must have gotten something wrong with DST. ahh well

I'm from right-smack in the middle of the US -- Kansas. It's called the Sunflower State, but it's anything but sunny or flowery these days.

And yes, chat is supposed to start in about 20 minutes now.

p.s. - I don't know much about Rudd but atleast he's not Bush, err, I mean, Howard.

 

[_Mayday_]

This should be good!

OOOOOOO SNAP!

 

[RetardedBastard]

Yayyy, we can caht now! see you all in the room.

 

[Evo]

Greg can be so cruel! We hadn't guessed Hurkyl's riddle.

 

[ranger]

I seem to be stuck in the chat. Oh well, I'll have fun talking to myself.

 

[nicky nichols]

...and not all frenchmen are as bad as that one on the bus.

 

[moe darklight]

I want answers!

 

[Cyrus]

Im sorry to say Marlon was in the chat again this week.

 

[Moonbear]

I think Kurdt got the answer at the last minute.

 

[cristo]

Kurdt did indeed give the answer. That's quick a clever riddle, Hurkyl, I liked that one!

 

[Kurdt]

I must confess i had heard that riddle before.

 

[Evo]

I think Kurdt got the answer at the last minute.

I must've missed it.

There's nothing worth watching on tv and I need a distraction!

 

[||spoon||]

what was the riddle?

 

[moe darklight]

o I get it. glass of water for the hiccups.

speaking of: I have the foolproof cure for the hiccups:

next time you get the hiccups, breathe in real deep, up to the point when you literally can't breathe in anymore. Hold your breath (with pressure). swallow twice. now let go of your breath, and you should no longer have hiccups.

 

[Kurdt]

My friend did psychology and he has loads of ways to stop hiccoughs. There was one time he whispered to me while I was hiccoughing that he'd give me £500 the next time I hiccoughed. I never got the money

 

[Danger]

I tried to join the chat, but it didn't work.
Since I've never been to a chat, I wasn't sure what to do. I tried just typing an answer like I do here, but it only let me get a couple of words and then locked up. When I tried to enter the limited answer that I had, it said that it couldn't display the page and the whole computer froze. I had to reboot just to log out.

 

[RonL]

Danger you missed a GOLDEN opportunity today, the conversation was mostly over my head (generation gap) but you would have had a wide range of material for some of your off the wall humor

Some people have had trouble. Make sure you are using the latest version of flash.

You didnt send me a private message in the room did you RonL?

Its all nicky nichols's fault. Keeps on entering and leaving the room. It makes my chat session unresponsive for some time. If it happens too much my browser locks up.

 

[RonL]

For sure not on purposeI don't think i know how to move around in the chat room very well. I did download the software, that let's anyone talk live, but could not find the website, or forum that had a room where i would use the password Physics.
Maybe next week will prove successful.

 

[Cyrus]

Maybe it was someone else. Some guy asked me if my major was physics, and I said 'no', and then he asked me if it was math or something else. It was annoying, and I ignored him. He called me rude. Hah...

Who ever it was, just ask in the main chat next time, please.

Roger was pm'ng everyone, that's probably who it was.

 

[Cyrus]

I think your right!

I gave him one word answers to his questions until he got a hint.

 

[Moonbear]

Heh, I ignored him completely, because his PMs kept popping up while I was in the middle of typing a reply to someone else and would get in the way. None of the questions were anything he couldn't have asked publicly, and none really worth answering, so I didn't worry about it.

 

[Danger]

I don't have any version of flash, so that might explain it. Anyhow, it really is too fast a pace for me. I'll stick with regular posting.

 

[marlon]

chat today ?

 

[_Mayday_]

Yeh, marlon I would think that Greg will start a new thread a bit later. I don't even know if America are up yet its still quite early...

 

[Astronuc]

In 2 or 3 hrs depending on Greg's schedule. Usually, it starts at 1000 Central Time (Chicago, US).

 

[_Mayday_]

39 minutes guys/gals!

I hope Science chat hasa few more people in there.

[_Mayday_]

I started getting nervous Greg, the PF Chat #4 hadn't been set up so I thought there might be a weeks gap. I know you follow the premiership, did you see Eduardo's broken leg incident?
