Latest addition to the WOK Skype community...

mattworden (guess who that is hehehe)

Ive talked to Matt and yet another crystal clear connection. Geez will we have fun doing conference calls with 4 people at once ! (thats one of Skypes features, we tested it with 3 people so far and it was cool)

PS: Im continually adding all new names into the FIRST post of this thread so you dont have to wade through pages of posts - just look at the first page and add all those people to your Skype buddies !

I'll take a piece of that action but I'll wait until my new laptop arrives. It was to be delivered by dec-11th. I am sure they ment 2004 but I couldnt see a year anywhere.

Anyway, when I get it I'll download Skype. No point going through the hassle with installing mic's into my old ancient laptop. It doesnt have enough free memory to do it anyway.

I wonder if we could hook up a conference call between Nick and Baron Roland? Or TK and X-wing?

Alright, I'm in, username reddlemanua. Though don't expect to be hearing my crystal-clear, beautiful voice any time soon, as I don't even have a microphone (and I doubt I'll have enough money to buy one any time soon)... Apparently it also has IM features? That's what they said on the website, though I haven't found them yet...

MSN is betta... Then AIM...

When you get those I'll give you all the names of those with it, then you can bug Korexus while he's "Working."

I generally like AIM better as well, but for WOK purposes I find it nice to have MSN. It helps a lot to actually talk strategy out and more WOKers have MSN than AIM. I also spend a lot of time argueing with Korexus only to come to the conclusion that I'm wrong...

GM Monica sounds nice. Where do I sign up to "play her games"? Korexus? Where is the link? Fix the lobby.

Might help if you spelled it right ... and if I actually ever turned that app on (very rare that I do).

Besides, you've already said that you can't speak English, only write it ... and my Swedenishery (the true name for the native language of Swedes) ist nicht so gut.

Aahh, Sahil. Thanks TK.

And Bryk. I was exaggerating a tad. What I meant was that I dont speak it well.

I did graduate a US High School. Would have been hard without actually speaking a word. :)
