The planet is currently called, Formalhaut b. Formalhaut being the name of the star. Formalhaut “a”, being the parent Star itself ofcourse. The cloudy dusty “ring” is aggregates of gas and dust. The inner rings edge is sharpened/defined with the help of Formalhaut b.

The planet is about 3 Jupiter masses. This does not mean the same “diameter”. For example, it could be 3 times as “massive” then our Jupiter, but only Twice the diameter, indicating higher density.
The star is about 25 Lightyears from us.

“The planet is 10.7 billion miles from the star, or about 10 times the distance of the planet Saturn from our sun”

It may possibly have a disk/ring system, like our Saturn, because the planet is brighter then it “should” be.

Timezone changes

Submitted by ltmon on Tue, 07/10/2008 - 08:35

It’s currently daylight savings (GMT+11) in Victoria.

I’m not sure if any other states have this time at the moment, but can someone let me know if we are going to practice at 8pm or 9pm tonight (depending on where you live).

Custom map fun tonight

Submitted by ltmon on Tue, 30/09/2008 - 16:09

At least a few MaD players have the new custom map installed, so it’s game on tonight at 8pm. We’ll start on the IPX server with the custom map and move to a booked GA server I have reserved if there’s any issues.

So:

Make sure you have this map downloaded and installed: http://splashdamage.com/node/312

Just a little piece of information about me, the new Fuzz in your fantastic little community. I am the head Australasian administrator for an American company called Gas Powered Games. You might know them as the company that made the awesome (but rather hardware demanding) game called Supreme Commander. I also run my own community website for one of the top clans called Australia United. Its not as nice as your website, but it is functional.

You can find that at www.supcomaustralia.com

And finally my love for FPS goodness never dies and i have been an avid gamer for many years. ET:QW is quite a unique game and nothing beats the voip voice quality :)

So once again i will say hello and i look forward to seeing you all online sometime for a game.

Fuzz Senior away for a bit

Submitted by Fuzz on Thu, 25/09/2008 - 08:03

After many months of searching for a place to buy, I’ve finally found it and the time has come to move. So I’ll be offline out of work hours for the next few weeks with packing and moving. Please help the new guys settle in, and good luck with the scrim against MaD Blue next week.

If you need to get in contact with me, PM meand I’ll be able to get back to you during work hours (except for the week 6th – 10th of October, when I’ll be off work too painting and moving into the new unit).
