Right, this Teamspeak thing looks good, so I will mostly be buying a headset from eBay if it gets put on t'Server

It's free too!! So we can all talk and shout abuse to each other about tossers ie. Wilk

Second, this Phone Number Thing if everyone is keeping track of everyone elses details then that sounds good to me. But would be better not to publish here
If you can trust me either drop me a mail through my profile, or to PhoneNumber@uncle-dave.co.uk
I'll gather em up then send them all back in a list to everyone that has mailled... if that is clear

Dave.

We'll need our own teamspeak server I guess. I can set one up and I'll see what the bandwidth utilization is like. Anyone want to test it out tomorrow evening?

I can do...

If you serve for now, we can transfer it to our own dedicated server that Neil will be setting up soon..
Bandwidth shouldn't be noticeable..

Can't wait Same goes for the LAN meet

Server is running, don't know if it'll work though. It's called 'Pistonheads' and *should* be public (with the usual password). I'll leave it running for a while.

I've tried this Teamspeak thing before with some other GTLers.

Whilst we could get it working fine through Windows, we could never get it to work whilst actually in a game ??????

Anyway, can you imagine the distraction with 15 of us chattering away whilst trying to pick braking points

This chappie looks the business - converts low level noise into vibration so you get an even bigger effect - plus has a mike

And only £29

You can also bundle it with a bit of software that converst voice into keyboard commands...

Well I'm up for it... will be good As long as people dont drone on about crap Don't think it'll be bad enough to miss braking point .. but we will get used to it!

it will be worth it purely for throwing taunts and insults at each other when we overtake/get overtaken

Exactly! Or on the occasion of seeing Wilk, we can speak privately for methods of Knock-Out so he doesn't ruin our bloomin race
