We were waiting until the official announcement on the ALTAR site to get the word out. There will be a chat on IRC with some of the Altar developers next week, Thursday September 19th. Go to Olav's site for exact times and more information.

By "we" I mean the people who hang out (or just idle all day while at work, like me) on the IRC channel. C'mon people, come visit us!
 You find out all sorts of neat stuff ahead of time!Ok, well, thats the first thing we knew about before you did, but theoretically the Altar people could show up and tell us where to secretly download a demo or something! Really! :alien2: -------------------- |

Um, Olav just told me that I should have capitalized all the letters in ALTAR because its an acronym. Anyone know what it means? I don't want to edit my post because then it will look tacky with the "last editted" line like my first comment has.

Well, tomorrow is the big day. Be there! In the meantime I've added a "Submit question" and "View questions" section to the:
http://iolalog.stud.hive.no/UFO/ site. Feel free to submit questions there. You don't have to, but it's nice for Jiri and Martin to see some of the questions first, so that they may prepare a bit. Anyway, see you tomorrow. So long. -------------------- Greetings from Olav

I've got a log of the chat with all the people entering and leaving the channel cleaned out of it. Waiting to hear back from Pete to see if he wants to host it here somewhere.

I don't want to edit my post because then it will look tacky with the "last editted" line like my first comment has. As one of my questions during the chat, I asked the ALTAR guys what the acronym meant.  QUOTE <ALTARiMartinK> It is a sort of silly and furthermore it only makes sense in Czech.
<Mazdek> Silly is good, would you care to roughly translate, or is it an inside joke? <ALTARiMartinK> Originally it was a name of the publishing house who made "Dragon's Lair", the Czech most popular pen-and-paper fantasy RPG. <ALTARiMartinK> We -- ALTAR interactive -- are a sort of offspring company. <ALTARiMartinK> Anyway, roughly translated it means "The Altruistic League of the Creators of an Alternative Reality". -------------------- |

And then the day was saved for Maz
. Well, I would like to hear what you think after the first official chat. Did it go well? Did you enjoy it? Or was it just a waste of 2.5 hours?

The first? Does that mean there will be more? Cool!
(Which means I liked it.)

I thought it was great. Time flew by though, I had no idea when it was over how long it had taken. -------------------- |
