You can make the launch of the beta as cool and sweet as the launch of the latest Existence mod beta. They had posted a message on their news-section with info about a meeting/release party on mIRC. They left the mirc channel, date, time. The channel was loaded and they posted the mirrors there at 12.00 exactly. This was cool, because the real fans who waited to get in there, had the mirrors first!

And it was of course a great way to talk to the programmers!

I wiated till the next day to get 2.0 cause I knew that to many people would d/l it at once. I was just there on the forums that night posting on how my sanity was definitly questionable....

I remember when 2.0 was released on IRC!! There were tons of peeps in there just waitin for it to be released, and suddenly, VT spoke!! He said, "Shutup yall"... *long pause* "and listen" Then he gave the link!! I believe it was released at 11:58 pm Pacific!! LOL!! Cant believe I actually remember all that!!
