alt.games.quake4 is now up and running. If your server doesn't have it, please request that it be propagated via your support newsgroup. :)

Is there so much traffic that it needs to be split? A big downside to this is that it takes Google Groups forever to start archiving a new group, so we won't be able to search recent posts until the game has gone into the 2nd hand bin. This group has died out a lot, so perhaps all remaining traffic should move back to alt.games.quake.

Sadly, my server doesn't carry that one either <g> I suggest AGQ2 since Q4 is Q2's sequel. -- -- EvilBill - http://www.evilbill.org.uk
