Ho! Ho! Hoe! Merry GIBSMAS!



It's time to snuggle up with a warm rocket launcher, and bask in the


heat from the charred corpse the_DM-Ohio just created for you.



Due to popular demand, we're having ONE MORE DeathFest before our two


month hiatus.



Attend the Perry-Ohio DeathFest(tm): Santa's Dead, You're Next!



THE TIME: 12:00PM, SATURDAY DECEMBER 28TH FOR 12+ HOURS.


THE PLACE: THE PERRY WINTER CABIN OF DEATH. FEATURING


THE HOT TUB OF FLOATING GIBS.



So what will you be dreaming of this Christmas? Sugar plums and candy


canes? Hell no! Floating gibs and rockets!



New to this game: Capture the Flag v3.3 BETA and Qtracker (works now!)



We WILL be recording a LOT of demos this time. All of the demos will


be distributed on the 'Net and various web pages. Other persons aside


from the_DM-Ohio will be recording demos as well.



Pictures will be taken as well, so put on that fake mustache and


sunglasses!



All frags will be tracked and rankings will be posted on various web


pages.



No admission charges. Pay $5 if you'd like some pizza. Please bring


a 6 or 12 pack of something to drink, and/or a bag of chips to share.



Only TWO extra P133's will be available, ONE is already reserved.


PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN COMPUTER!



Hotel costs getting to be too much to handle? Ask and you can be


shacked up at a locals house. No KY-jelly required, it's provided for


you! ;)



PLEASE NOTE:



This is the last game for two months. Do your best to attend since


this is it.



HOPE TO SEE YOU AT THE GAME!
