Prepare for winter WAN party: Day of Defeat: Source @ 7:15 PM Eastern Sat Jan 26
Posted on Tuesday January 22, 2019

The next game to show up in our schedule of events for our winter WAN party taking place this coming Saturday November 3 will be Day of Defeat:Source which we will switch to around 7:15 PM Eastern. You need only have it installed from STEAM as any maps that are not included with the game will be downloaded from the server automatically. However, if you want to make sure that you have all the maps ahead of time, you can download them from here. If you do not already own the game, you can buy it through STEAM ($10):

Here is our server to add it to your favorites if you have not already done so. We will use Discord and STEAM friends to coordinate.

Fortnite has a new private creative mode for up to 16 players that we are going to play test. You can download Fortnite for FREE here. Once you have it downloaded and installed, add Kramerika to your Epic Games friends list. After I accept your request, you should be able to to see and join my island from the Creative hub. If you enter my island, you should also be able to edit and make changes to it. We can add whatever structures, vehicles, and weapons that we want and use whatever game play mode that we want. This is total experimentation with no expectations, so we will see how it goes.

We will be coordinating via Discord and STEAM friends.

Prepare for winter WAN party: Discord
Posted on Friday January 18, 2019

Our winter WAN party is set to take place next Saturday January 26 starting at 6:00 PM Eastern. Our WAN parties are essentially extended community nights where we play multiple games over the course of 5 hours or so. You can find the full list of games to be played in this post. More news posts will follow over the next week with instructions for each game.

We will use the Lobby channel on Discord as a supplement to any built-in voice communication for games to coordinate, communicate, and have a good time. All members and friends are welcome to join in. Members can invite friends and family from Discord to join our server (or use the Discord server invite link from Member links at the top menu of the forums). We will also use STEAM friends to coordinate. You can find more about installing Discord and connecting to our server here:

7:15-8:30 PM -> DoDS ($10) (dod_vigilance, dod_colmar)

We will be working this into our community night rotation, but you can play any time in between as well. The current server IP is 71.127.164.211:27031, so add that to your favorites. It should automatically stay in your favorites even if the IP address changes. The Forest is currently on sale on STEAM for around $13.
