Holiday Shennanigans

Holiday update, just to prove the blog still works!

1. If you did not sign up to participate in the gift swap, you're too late. MAKE SURE YOU MAIL PACKAGES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE so that they arrive on time. As always, awards will be given in January for:  a. gift that traveled the farthest  b. dumbest gift  c. most disgusting gift
2. We are pleased to announce the return of CORVANIA CHRONICLES. A BRAND NEW version has launched, Tankers-only, with some amazing world building. Skyrim shmyrim! Dice roll takes  place December 8. If you miss First Dice you can't be First Circle, so show up!
3. Negotiations are currently underway to purchase new servers so that we can bulk up IRC for greater slam-width. Though not yet completed, at least two are a lock (just a matter of paperwork going through). Thanks to Damiano for his help in making this happen.
4. If you have been looking for an IRC application that works on both Android platforms and Kindle Fire, the newer version of AndroidIRC, AndChat, works like silk. Go, download, be happy:

And a preview of the new legend...

Designed by Chrissy Olinger for The Sceptics Tank 2012

New Dedicated, Tank IRC Client

At long last we have finished the IRC program designed by, and for, THE SCEPTICS TANK. Tank IRC has been a labor of love. The new client does everything that mIRC does, everything that pIRCH did, and stuff no IRC client has ever done before.

The interface is pop-out-able, the server connections incredibly smooth, and it comes ready to have your own scripts and code rolled in very quickly and easily using familiar commands.

A MILLION thanks to:

Members can now download the program in the attic. You WILL be asked to agree to TOS that includes a confidentiality and INDIVIDUAL USER ONLY agreement. The short end of that stick is this: share the program and you'll be booted and banned for life. This is TANK MEMBERS ONLY. Shouldn't have to be said, but having said it, there are no excuses.

Test drives, FWIW, have been freaking UN. BE. LIEVE. ABLE.
