That was my bad and has been rectified. (I was excited at the time.)

Nice one!

Tiger, I sent you a PM on here about Warder.

Does this mean Jade Falcon has him? We may need to mount a rescue mission.

I hope everyone had an excellent Thanksgiving for those of you who celebrate it. I jumped over to MekTek early this morning and found two things.

1) they had some server downtime and should be up and running now.

2) For those of you who don't have MW4free yet check out this article from PC World.

Come on man, you know those clanner's could never catch me or hit the backside of my mech. Lol I see you mentioned something about the remote, I'll have you know before the founder of RTG C.Talbert retired he left me with the original remote, which I was supposed to give to Warder. But, because he was so busy taking over command and he sent me out on those covert missions. I never got a chance to return it to him. I would have given it to Fang, but on those rare moments when I was able to return to base, that damn monkey of his kept getting in the way...or was it your monkey. I'll admit it, it was I who stuck all those firecrackers up his butt, he's lucky I never got that laser shot off, or he would've been a flying monkey. Hehehe
Anyways once we get our command structure settled, I'll return the remote. *whisper* If you didn't already know, this remote controls more than just the tv...that's why Talbert didn't want it to fall into the wrong hands.

"Maxx! Get in here!"

"On deck sir! Remote Sir? (caught off guard)

"No Sir. Yes Sir. Not sure Sir!. Rumors at best Sir!"

"The Monkey is intact Sir. Do you wish other wise Sir. I can have a volunteer group change that in 5 Sir!

"The Remote has been lost for almost a decade Sir. We had assumed it was lost in the last great Battle"

"Found Sir?" "It's return would signal a true renewal for sure Sir.!"

After a long and interesting day Maxx stands and walks towards the door "Shutdown" "lights out" he shouts as he shuts the door behind him. He stares into the dimly lit hangar, he notices at the far end of the hangar a cooler with an open beer sitting on top. He strolls over to the cooler and notices as approaches a dark figure appear from behind the leg actuator of his favorite Highlander mech.
"Don't worry everyones gone" Maxx calls out, the dark figure steps out of the shadows and hands Maxx the beer. You always knew how to get my attention Tiger, but why all the secrecy?
I understand you are the new XO? Tiger asks, Maxx nods. Tiger removes his sword and pushes a button on the scabbard which opens to a secret compartment. He removes the device and hands it to Maxx, remember this Maxx you once heard about it a long time ago, how it could control a mechs actions. We kept it in the rec room to to allude suspicions but somehow someone found out and we had to take it far away. BA and I were the guardians, but some how BA went out on a mission and I never heard from him since...
I heard that RTG was forming up again, so I have returned. Take care of that remote! When Maxx looked up, all he saw was a shadow receding out into the darkness. Tiger called out "btw, I hung the monkey in that beer vault of yours" Hahaha....

Maxx looks down at the device and then slipped it inside his Coolant vest and smiled. Remembering Tigers last words, he turned and started to run for the Beer Vault. Stopping short a few paces on, he turned and looked into the now still darkness of the Hangar. "Welcome back MechWarrior! There appears to be more good times headed our way."

With that done, Maxx ran for the Vault. Tiger must have forgotten what a Lush the Monkey was, or had he?

Jesus, Maxx had to save as much of the Beer as he could, before it was to late. The CO would never believe that furry Frak drank it all himself and another shipment was at least 2 months out.

inside joke?

[RacerX]

Yes, well, kinda, well no not really. The remote is basically a running gag that has no real meaning as far as I can tell other than something funny to fall back on when you want to make a joke but have nothing funny to say. In the old unit most new members were greeted with a warning to not fall asleep in the Rec Room and and don't misplace the remote. For some reason, however, the remote has taken on a life of it's own. Next I expect Maxx to make a little helmet for it and assign it an Urban mech. Well, as long as the Urbie is serving beer in the rec room I don't really care what the thing looks like or what it's driving.

Meet and Greet Saturday Dec 3rd

Hail fellow warriors and lovers of beer. I am proposing a few hours of mech on mech combat starting at 10pm Est this Saturday night Dec 3rd. The connection info will be released to the RTG forums later this week. Please head on over to our team forums and let me know if I can expect you or not.

If you have not yet registered with the site this is a great opportunity to do so.

Also, for those who do not yet have Mechwarrior 4 for free you can get it now. MekTek was down for server migrations a few weeks back. They are back online now. Be sure to post any issues or questions in the team forums. If we need a new Forum category please let me know.

Yeah, the last time someone fell alseep in the rec room, he was minus his eye brows, no hair on his whole leftside(Head to Toe) Lipstick all over...and I mean alllllllll over. Lol and Racers monkey sleeping next to him with lipstick on those Huge lips and a beer can in both hands.

After a hard fought battle the last place you want to be is in the rec room chugging down beers. Hehehe That's why Maxx and Fang always drank in their cockpits. Hmmm....Those were the days

[Sgt Grunt]

racer has a monkey huh? well i guess it's better than a goat hmm?

Hey guys. Things have been pretty quite lately. I would like to have a unit scrimage however I need commitments from folks to show up. Grunt, Haynit and I suffered through the open server stupidness last weekend. I will assume that the Holidays are keeping everyone busy. Hows does January look for folks? Can I get some commitments from the Old Guard? Also, if you guys know of or see any new blood out there looking for a unit please feel free to extend an invitation.

[Hanyit Greyhame]

January might work for me, but no earlier, got midterms to study for, so not much free time...

Hey, the open server was fun, I got to practice my narcing skills, got pretty good, I think.... Jenners + ~15-20 narcs are my new favorite mechs..

Regards,

Hanyit Greyhame

If I can get all my gear together I will be there. Still need to get the pro throttle and rudder pedals. I could probably use the joystick, mouse & keyboard, but it just wouldn't feel right.

[MaddMaxx]

I can do Jan. Apologies for the last pass miss. Got some late Intel from the Boss. Always good to rumble if there is no late Intel about...

[Sgt Grunt]

anybody got another meet time? let me know
