It’s listed as SDMB (chez fubbleskag) I think (for tonight only). ---

Also, it’s under “Private” server listing (can’t remember if that’s normal or not) if anyone can’t see it, hit me on AIM (fbblskg) and I’ll give you a direct link ---

Yeah, so much for wishful thinking of juggling the game with work. I still probably would have tried for that flush in perfect playing conditions though… ---

Sorry about last night guys. Too many problems. Anyway, I need to strip the motherboard to be sure, but at this point I think I need a new CPU, a new motherboard, and new RAM. Even if it’s just the CPU, the motherboard is a 939 socket and I can’t get a new CPU with that socket. So I might have to ask fubbleskag to host for a while, assuming he doesn’t mind of course. ---

Well, get there a little early to set up a new account, make sure you know the password, and have an AIM client running so someone can invite you to our chatroom. That’s about it. ---

Sorry guys, I haven’t had a chance to buy the new parts yet or actually get boot camp working on my Mac yet. I hope fubbleskag doesn’t mind doing this for a bit longer. ---

not at all - but considering my track record for missing poker night myself, a reminder each week to make sure the server’s running is a good idea ---

My apologies as well for only playing a few hands and then ditching, but I won’t be able to play until my work schedule changes and/or I convince my better half that I should get to use the nice big monitor. For work. And poker. ---
