I've got about 1.26 GB's done. And it seems that I won't be able to. Keeps saying I can't get a tracker.

ya, if you're behind a firewall then that happens.  More then likely your school has blocked the port that BT uses.

hummm....ok, I got a second invite to the WoW Beta.  If Promethious didn't get one it's up for grabs, but if he didn't I'm going to let him have it.

Entropy has allreay ask for it, so he's second in like.  Though I'm hesitant to give it to a CoH fanboy since they allwayse play the game for like 1-2 hours and then cry "why are there no speach bubble!"  or "Why can't I be some level 50's sidekick!".

which doesn't matter anyway, since, as I said, my hardware won't handle it.

Sprig, you should really give it to Micah, since he plays MMOs as much as you do, and he's very tired of DAoC. He also beat KoTOR last night, so he's probably looking for something to do.

It would appear that if left on forever, this beta should finish hopefully within Friday evening. If not, sometime into saturday.

We should get Micah into CoH...and then he can whine about speech bubbles with us.

Ok, so I'm about 60% done and it's saying another 15 hours. So I will stay up as long as it takes to finish this Courtney.

Micah watched me play CoH last night for a good 15-20 minutes. He looked pretty entranced. Unfortunately, he pointed out that the WoW open beta is bound to happen in the next couple of weeks, since the game has a release date of mid-November. I think he's more interested in being an Orc than a superhero.

I did have him make a CoH guy and run through the tutorial though.

dude, we need to get me a better box, so I can play CoH. Jealousy seethes within me, for while I have two new GI Joe ninjas, neither are monkeys, and neither are video games.
