Depends on the day. CounterStike’s always a favorite. Soulblighterii likes Myth II.

We are currently working with ITS to acquire bandwidth shaped ideally for computer gaming. CounterStrike is already set up; however, bandwidth has yet to be worked out for most online games- stay tuned.

I wrote the constitution. It says I’m God.

Amazon.com, EB games, or any other online or local reseller. If our budget allows it, we maybe subsidize the purchase of bulk games for distribution. Rugby players need equipment to play, as do we. We do NOT support any illegal software trading- so stop asking.

What you call yourself in game, like a pilot or trucker’s call sign or code name. Some are creative and reflect some interesting aspect about the person’s real identity. Some just like to use profanity. Some choose to remain anonymous. Some are stupid enough to keep reading this- if so, you are a noob. Another thing to remember, a handle is also bottle of alcohol ... mmm vodka.

For those geeky enough to have taken Rick Decker's wonderfully applied course *snickers greatly*, CS 210 Applied Theory, you would also of course remember that a handle is "a grammar string ø that appears on the right of any production rule X -> ø used in a derivation."
