A Little History ...

So, back at the end of January, 2024, there was this little post on /r/bbs about a BBS related DooM multi-player get-together. I was intrigued. I downloaded the client, joined, and spectated on the running deathmatch(es), commenting here and there while I worked on other projects on my system. It was fun spectating (and considering my very rusty DooM skills I knew I was going to need some time to bone-up before diving in). So, I thought a Zandronum DooM server would be a nice addition to all of the other game servers that I run. After much testing and experimentation, here we go. I've decided that my server is going to be running the Quake Champions: DooM Edition mod and mapsets. If the server is up, you'll find it on Doomseeker. Be warned - you'll need all of the requisite files to join the server direct -- if you connect through Doomseeker it will auto-download them from my server. If you want to download and setup everything yourself, see the setup and installation link above.

You should join the $20 For Beers BBS DooM fragfest on the first Saturday of the month - link to the /r/bbs announcement on the right. Also, go create an account on the BBS (and use that as your gamer tag on the 2oFB DooM server) and experience a spicy taste of retro-computing goodness :-)
