This Sunday (1st September) at 3pm GMT, Minos are staging a special Quake


event.



This first event will be a Teamplay game with locked teams. Future events


are planned of many different variations.



Join us on the Minos 2nd server on Sunday afternoon.



The second server is on port 26666.



Note that to get Quake to connect to a different port, you must use the


"-udpport" command line option. The port field in the in-game menus does


not work. So for example, you would launch:



q95 -udpport 26666 +connect minos.beyond2000.co.uk
