After finally getting the SG achievement (played since beta, 24 hours as eng....) :o I only have one more left...
Anyone want to do a 'meet' on a server (hl2.net #1?) to gain the achievement? (or to help out others).

My idea is either sat/sun 11pm+ or mon/tues (anytime)

Obviously 6 other people need to agree... Well maybe 7?
Steam: Play on a team of 8 made up of only players from your friends list.
In-game: Play in a game with 7 or more players from your friends list.

Post if you want in with your pref date/time :thumbs:


My SteamID to add me:

Sat/Sun 11pm is fine for me, providing you mean GMT.

I'd be in, no problem.
 
If you tell me what time that is in California, I'll try to be there. You'll also need to explain what I need to do to find you, as I usually just look for any server with a good ping that's pretty full.
 
Providing we get enough people (who need/want the achievement) I say go here:
Halflife2.net TF2 Public (UK) #1
85.234.148.5:27115

I have no idea what time it is in CA, but GMT-8 rings a bell?
 
I'm on as [HL2.Net] Adabiviak. Is this the Steam community or friends in the friends list in the Team Fortress menu?

edit - pardon the noob here. I think I'm in? For this to work, you have to add me, and I you, correct?

2nd edit - I'm in the chat room now, I think. Atomic-something is in there?
 
I don't go in the chatroom myself (sorry!) - But yeah you add everyone else, you can also do it while playing on the server by pressing SHIFT+TAB and clicking friends, add a friend - I think.

We seem to have 5 people now, so if everyone can be on the server I gave, on sunday at 11pm - we can probably invite a couple more and those who don't have them on their 'list' can add them while playing, and we'll hopefully be all sorted!
 
PS, you need to give your steamID (not your player name) so people can add you while you're not playing a game.
 
do you need to like... register for putting [hl2.net] in your name, or do you just put it there?
 
Does just adding random people to your friends list from the current game you're playing work for this achievement?
 
Yeah you can add anyone you like!
At least this way we can all get the most annoying achievement (non-skill based), but if this fails, I'm heading to a 24/7 32 player and adding everyone I can! 7 people are likely to accept.

I believe there's another 32 achievements coming very soon for the medic. So that will be fun.


No need to register if you don;t want, just put your steamID here, and I/people will add ya.
 
We're all online right now trying to get it if anyone is early/wants it...

I don't know if there was some confusion with the time, but I meant 11pm GMT.
I'll still be online again at 11pm for 30 mins though, welcome to add/invite me if you want an extra guy for the achievement.
 
well that really sucked, i was in with six friends and some french guys that wouldn't respond to my invites, finally i got a seventh guy and the server crashed :/ we should try it again, but preferably not at 4am PST
 
I'd say yesterdays was a success, apart from Multivac, never mind, at least 2 or 3 of us got it, including me :D
 
I noticed I got it after a round ended, even though I had 8 people as friends before then. I think this was the same for other people, unfortunately the server kept crashing after that.

I think it'd probably be just as much 'work' to go on a 32 player server at the start of a map, and add everyone possible. I'm sure at least 7/8 would accept, then you can delete them after lol.
 
Just add all the hl2.netters, once people know a games is on then they will pile in, in numbers generally. Random people aren't likely to accept your friends requests unless they've played a few rounds with you successfully (IE you've proven you can kick ass, support well, or clearly know what your doing) .
