OK, let's make 8pm official for the pre-social, but by that time, Rootes bar will be full. Shall we say we'll meet near the bottom of the stairs leading up to Rootes bar at 8pm and will wait there until 8:10pm latest? I'll bring along another twofo poster.

Is IRC banned? If so, why, and can't just DCC (i.e. file transfers) be banned instead?

Are you coming to the twofo social?

Please add your name here to let everybody know if you're coming to the social. Please only post once in this topic per person coming. Please say what social(s) you're coming to - the one on Friday evening and/or the one on Saturday afternoon (and probably evening too). * I'm attending the social on...

I guess so - I just thought it'd be best to get the main social details sorted so I can post it up somewhere. Is everyone OK with the preliminary details I gave a few posts ago?

CruzerMX: The more people, the better :-) OK - how about this for initial arrangements: - Date: Saturday 5th November - Time: 4pm (you can leave whenever, but I'm sure some of us will do something for the whole evening) - Location: Rootes bar at one of the tables - How you'll know it's us: I'll have...

I find when trying to gather up quite a few people, it's best to start the social earlier, i.e. when it's less busy and when you can actually talk to each other without shouting. I was thinking that starting sometime late afternoon would be good, e.g. 4pm. Opinions? Suggestions? I'd like to get the ...

Right, yes, I see what you mean now. I would have thought that many Bittorrent clients would be sensible enough to limit connections when it's not really getting much throughput though, as you could just be sending the extra information with very little payload! When I was on campus, Bittorrent was ...

The problem with BT is that it uses an entirely different protocol as other filesharing applications. The DC protocol can have lots of people downloading on the network at ~10Mbps and no one would even notice, however just one person downloading at 15kbps on BT and it could potentially saturate the...

The problem is that ITS have now started trying to block p2p traffic etc. By doing this, they seem to have agreed that they can do things to curb the 'spread of illegal files', so it'd may be difficult to reverse their decision as they obviously have the means to do this 'protection'.

FYI, I think it's port 3128 for the proxy (at least it was a year ago).

Hehe Smelly_Kat :-) So, let's try and formalise plans so I can post it somewhere prominant on the twofo main page. What we need to sort out: - Time and date of main twofo social - Where we'll meet - How we'll be recognisable - What we'll do Any suggestions or answers, and further questions to add? C...

I agree, meeting in the union could be very difficult. I'd definitely be up for a whole weekend thing (the train ticket costs the same regardless ;-) ), but would others? Perhaps we should have a main twofo social sometime during the afternoon of the Saturday where people can continue to the event i...

Would anyone also be up for going to Vapour on this day - the dance music event at the union?

Can you confirm that this works across different halls, i.e. through the switchers/routers? If it does, I can make if 'twofo policy' for now.
