this proposition has a couple of MAJOR restrictions, however i'll continue, i want to get some pratice at multi in preparation for NWN (ooooo), for i am a newbie (hangs head) at multi and want to play very much.(i hear you all reaching for your mouse buttons, but please read on.. [img]smile.gif[/img] )
now we all know that the restrictions on the net means that mear mortals like us, with 56k modems, simply can't hook up online (theoretically this should be possible, but you can't.)

here's where the restrictions come in

most phone companies offer person to person telephone calls on the same provider, either at drasically reduced rates or even free, with a connection fee (pennies).

i would like to hook up person to person with someone on my network and play a duo or if poss more (but probably not, unfortunately, due to 56k). this would require trust (hmmmm..) as telephone numbers would be exchanged, But, i'm still interested.

I am on the NTL network in the UK if anyone else on this one wants to play email me

ar.daneel@ntlworld.com

we'll work something out

BTW if anyone knows the tecnicalities of such a task i.e how you connect two comps togther over a phoneline the please post thet too

thank you for the time it took to read this post

Sorry mate. I'd be more than happy to play mp on line, but I'm on ADSL so that would mean a no-go for you I guess
