  • Dial-up gaming test?

    From VHSFuture@21:1/137 to All on Monday, April 13, 2026 16:06:49
    Hello all,

    Are there any dialup users (VoIP or otherwise) who would be interested in helping me test Quake, Quake III, or Unreal Tournament over said connection? I'm curious to see what the experience is like, even if it's not ideal. I'm hoping to test around 3pm Pacific time either tomorrow (the 14th) or next week (the 21st). Please let me know if you're interested!

    Thanks and regards,
    VHSFuture

    3pm pacific time is not the best for me, but during business hours here (9-15h CET which is i think midnight-6 am for you) can be good :)

    Hmm, that time doesn't work for me since I'm usually heading home from here around 10pm or 11pm Pacific :(
