    I also wasn't there, although I did get the invite, but that's 'cos if my PC is on, I'm logged into steam and someone had obviously left my PC on while I was away.

    Might be up for Wednesday, have to see what I'm doing exactly, although I'm not a huge fan of CS: S for the above reason that lots of people spend their life on it and get stupidly good.

    I know what you mean!

    What happened to the Hexus CSS clan? Some are part of the Hexus steam community... a few of those guys were very good.

    Maybe mixing up the games may help attendance a bit

    I think we'll look into what other games people have on Steam and sort something out.

    At the moment all I've got is the games which came with HL2 (HL, HL2, HL2 Deathmatch, CS, CS:S etc...) as well as the 2 HL expansion packs (blue shift and opposing force).

    I've got other games which are on steam (Titan Quest, Doom, Q2/3,etc...) but I don't think you can link these to your steam account (which seems like a major flaw to me, because if you've already got the game you're not going to buy it again just to play it over steam).

    You can input the cd key into steam, although I think it makes you download and install the games again.

    I have civ 4 and the expansions on steam and will try to associate the dawn of war games with my account. I also don't mind splashing out on anything popular!

    Was cool! I even shot some people. My fave was two headshots whilst flashbanged.

    We should make another meet.
