Version 14 New Features

There are, as always, new features in the newest CD version of SOMBB. My favorite is...

3) SPECTATOR MODE - Spectator Mode has been added. Now you can watch as other guys in your Netplay league go head-to-head in regular season or playoff games!

A more important feature may be that the visiting team can now host in Netplay - so now all of the 'hosting challenged' can now play via netplay.
The Hamachi craze ends as quickly as it started.

And I just went out last night and bought my argyle socks!

OK, our nerdiness level is approaching that of a Trekkie Convention. Grown men can pretend to sit down with each other and pretend to play baseball with players who will perform at the level to which they performed last year, and other grown men will choose to pretend they are at the same table observing said contest. There should at least be a solemn pact that we are all drinking the same brand of beer.

Meanwhile, the much-hyped hamachi has lost its luster before I can get any. I guess I could check E-Bay for some used.

Where are the cards?

The most important part of spectator mode would be the inclusion of "Spectator Noise", otherwise known as "Drunks in the Cheap Seats!"

Ventrilo.com (group VoIP capability) plus Spectator Mode might help.

Note to the Tweeners: You can still get some hamachi over on Elm St., third house on the left. Tell the guy at the door that Leon sent you.

Make sure to bring goggles. The mayo really flies in spectator mode.

goggles? or 3-D glasses?

Goggles are for the SpoogeFest. Too bizarre and perverted even for us.

Sorry. to netplay me you'll have to have the hamachi, i'm afraid. My other league is probably going to require it.

Yes, I trust Hamachi....

*Written by a Russian

*No one able to see the code behind the application (closed source)

*Able to punch holes in my firewall using a "middle-man" server cluster.

*Uses a remote server cluster controlled by said Russian author.

I see no red flags. He said we'd have hope!
