Happy 4th of July, Dawggs and friends!!!

Battlefield 3 is coming in a few months!!! Is your rig ready for it? Check the Battlefield forum for all the latest news, specs, and videos!!!

Happy Birthday Sarge!

Steam is having daily sales on several games this holiday weekend. Every day is a different deal, so check back often. COD Black Ops has launched and Battlefield Bad Company 2 Vietnam will release soon... apparently old is new again. Ubisoft fanboys will be happy to pick up Tom Clancy's HAWX 2, but with a MetaScore of 72, you may not. Check out the vids on it though, you may be interested. Hey, after stuffing yourselves and watching football, try to hook up with some Dawggs for some gaming this extended weekend. If you don't... the terrorists win.

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!

Fallout: New Vegas has dropped! Add that to Starcraft 2, Civilization 5, Lost Planet 2 and Medal of Honor(Meh-dal?), and theres a lot of big games out now. With more big games to release in the next few months, what are you playing, and what are you planning to get? Check the GAME DISCUSSION forum to see what's coming!

Happy Birthday SlimJim!

Our Ventrilo server is now "GUEST restricted". All unregistered guests are confined to the "Guest Lobby" until registered or moved by an Admin. Hopefully this fixes the smacktard problem and lets our members and friends concentrate on gaming!

Ventrilo News! Due to some juvenile internet behavior in our Ventrilo server, we will be going to a more restrictive model regarding our "GUEST" accounts (unregistered). GUEST accounts will be restricted to the lobby when connecting, and will have to either get registered to move about freely, or contact any Dawgg to move them into a different channel. If you are an unregistered regular guest on our Ventrilo server, then I suggest you get registered now by contacting DapperDan. I will make another post when this change is implemented. Thanksomuch!

What are you doing the 4th of July weekend? Are you planning to frag your squadmates and relentlessly tbag their faces into a bloody pulp? Good. I thought so. Come celebrate America's Independence Day in the grand tradition of FPS. Fireworks indeed!

Have a great Memorial Day weekend!!! Remember to take a moment and pay homage to our fallen brothers and sisters in the United States military!

Some inactive names have been removed from the roster! Contact Fox if you have returned from a long absence and wish to rejoin us!

Nice turn out for the safety meeting on Friday.

Please welcome our newest member [dwg] Stiff Richard

The database containing roster members was destroyed during the server wipe. I will be remaking the lost profiles.

Everything is up and current 'cept Roster- Check Forums for Details- 9:57pm cst

The server was reloaded instead of just looking for the cause of an issue...Thank you Hypernia....website and servers are being dealt with

The [dwg]Custom server is now running Desert Conflict.

The Pownd would like all to welcome our newest member, [dwg] REIGN-OF-LEAD

We would like to welcome our newest member, [dwg] Hauptmann

We would like to welcome back one of our charter members [dwg] XaQshuner

A special thanks to PF-Sweaty Man-tits for only further proving my point, bitch.

The Dawgg Pownd 2142 server is up even though I haven't been able to make the status reflect it as such. 72.232.31.228:17567

Please welcome our newest dawgg [dwg]blo0dx314.

A big welcome to our newest member, [dwg]Toten Kirche.

Please welcome our newest members [dwg]MeatHead1019 and [dwg]Niter1cbs

We are now test driving the [dwg] Custom server which is provided by [dwg]ii3onesii. This server features all of the BF2 map packs

The VoIP is now working for all of the BF2 servers and the stats for the DCF server are updating again at midnight. Previous issues with the last box have been eliminated. :) Enjoy!

We are now back in action. All the game servers are up and all that is left is the stats and BF2 VOIP.

Stats for DCF are fresh....and I'm working on automating them....and there we go, every night at midnight ;)

The Status page has been updated to include a Ventrilo tab. Thanks to the people over at VentriloSpy.net we have a status page for Vent now, despite my lack of time to write one. There is a minor bug when it first loads and breaks all the tabs, but after it loads everything seems to revert to normal behaviour.

All of the game servers are back online. Enjoy the nicer pings.

Welcome to all y'all from our new home in Texas.

The server hosting is in the process of moving to a new location (Texas). During this time I will be attempting to move everything from the current server to the new server without interupting game servers, the website, forums, or other services. I apologize in advance if we lose any connectivity and warn everyone that I may miss a few posts from the forum during the switchover.

A little server outage this afternoon. Seems they had a bad UPS in Miami.Stats will be updated in a moment and will be for February

Stats are fresh and are from 1-1-07 to present

A happy and prosperous new year to all.

Another great match with Pucker Factor this weekend. A great time was had by all.

We have a new ventrilo server. ventrilo3.ecgnetwork.com :3714

Thanks again to Pucker Factor for another great match this weekend.Great matches guys.

We would like to thank our friends at Pucker Factor for a great scrim tonight. Great match guys and we hope many more to follow.

We have put up a new Infantry only server. Enjoy!

Well as you probably can't tell now, the IP adress on the server was changed. The servers are all back up, but the website, not so much.

I just updated the stats, then realized they were from the month of July. I'll leave them for today, and then update to last months stats...insert eye rolling smiley here

Welcome our nwest member [dwg]Rico_is_one

We at the Dawgg Pownd would like to introduce our Point of Existence server.We hope you all enjoy. ;)

Welcome our newest members [dwg]AGiJoe and [dwg]ii3onesii

Retooling of the amount of servers....I have temporarily taken down DPCustom and DP #3. They aren't gone, just not running at the moment ;) Freeing up recources by temporarily taking down the servers that are inactive. Winter will be here before you know it and server slots will be going up :)

Please welcome our newest member [dwg]UNODIR. Welcome back, dawgg.

Stats are fresh for the DCF server and also include the DP Custom server.

Stats for the DC server have been updated....I'll start doing it every day again.

I have finally gotten around to updating the gauntlets page

Welcome our newest member [dwg]SlimJim

Issues with my home machine have been addressed and now the stats for the DCF server can be updated again....regularly.

Tarwn fixed the forums shortly after they were broken and the status just started working again on it's own.Schweeet

The forums are temporarily non-functional, i think.....ummmm temporarily

Yes I know the Status is broken. The Query Protocol changed with the latest update and I will attempt to correct the issue this weekend. Sorry for the lack of status in the mean time.

Please welcome our newest member [dwg]Mr. Furious

Some changes have been made and servers added...more inductions soon

The DCF server stats have been updated as well as the archives for the month of March.

Please welcome our newest member [dwg]pmnova

Stats for the DCF server are back on line and it looks like a few of you already got you some ;) 32 slots

The DCF server is now running at our new home 38.100.195.86 We can make this server any size we like ;)

The DCF server is running as well as both BF2 servers, the status page is still a little jacked, but being worked on ;)

Our server IP has been changed, 38.100.195.86 please note that the new IP affects everything so please update your favorites

Please welcome our newest member [dwg] Silent

Please welcome our newest members [dwg] rabid69 [dwg] RampRat and [dwg] OldMan

You may remember the Profiles pages form before Clanservers accidentally deleted our site. I have updated them a little bit and they are back.

New Ventrilo Server is up, check the Server Information bar to the left and join in.

The new Status pages are up using a PHP package I am in the process of writing. If you want more info on the status boxes in the sidebar and the tabbed display in the Status page, stay tuned. I'll have more info up a little later. In the meantime it's on to the next thing on the list.

Forums are up, I think we have everything now. Still have changes to make (like new status pages) but I'm working on it.

As you can tell, we are in the process of moving to this new and improved home. Expect some things to be broken for a little while until I get everything set back up.

We would like to introduce and welcome our newest member [dwg]Ramp Rat

Well, we are in the process of moving to our new home with not only our original server, but also 32 slot ranked servers forBF2 and Special Forces. Come join us :)

I have switched the server over to all COOP. Plans for a ranked BF2 server are being laid so stay tuned.

Status is fixed for real this time, I now return you to your regular news person, Foxie.

Ok, so status isn't quite fixed. Not sure why but the query isn't geting that much data back. i'll look at it this weekend.

Yeah, there's your stinkin' status page ;) Turns out there was an error in the code that I fixed last time and forgot about this time, so it took alittle longer to fix then I expected, but it should be good now.

Well almost everything is working again....Forum is back up, but a few months were lost....so welcome back to May.

The Forum button is being disabled for now, please don't access it for a bit as I am attempting to fix it. Fixed and Good to Go

Well the geniuses at Clanservers deleted the site while moving it to another box....it will take a while to get everything back up....even longer without Tarwn's help...bear with me....oh, and FUCK CLANSERVERS!

It's been a while since I updated the news :P Sgt. Rock has continued his dominance. We would like to announce our partnership with Hodserver.com for use of their BF2 server. DAWGG POWND Hodserver 8.9.2.56 We have a post in the forum for X-Fire handles if you wish to add us or join the server we happen to be playing in at the time.

All website issues have been fixed....finally. Sgt. Rock continues his domination.

At long last the host has finally fixed the FTP function so stats are again available. Sgt. Rock has returned. :)

Well Sgt. Rock put in some time this week. Glad to see you back!

Lots of bot killing going on this week.

Well it doesn't take much to win the week nowadays.

Seems everyone is playing the BF2 demo, but not Juggernaut ... way to go man!

It's been a while but homer comes out on top this week. Nice job!

We have a winner this week that has been here since I opened the doors on this thing. Way to go -{DFA}- Charger!

Boss wins again this week. Also Tarwn has completed our new member profile pages proving again that Tarwn is the frickin' man. :P

Boss makes a return to the top this week. Clanservers has finally fixed the website so I could FTP the stats again.

Please welcome our newest member [dwg] PHILCO. Welcome soldier!

Well lookie here, we got us a new champion in this extended week. Mr. Furious pulls it out this week. Well done soldier.

Somebody finally ended that win streak this week. :P

Another win for Sgt. Rock. Another great week of games.

Sgt Rock wins again this week. Somebody will have to put a stop to this. :P

Please welcome our newest dawgg...Sgt Rock. Welcome aboard soldier and congrats on another win this week.

Looks like Sgt. Rock wasn"t kidding. He's back this week for another win. Way to go man!

Well Sgt. Rock was not to be denied this week. Way to go man!

Another awesome week of battles. Server seems to be getting busier. :)

An even tighter battle between BOSS and Diablo Verde with 3 points deciding the victory this week. Way to go DV!

This week was probably the closest battle ever. Sgt. Rock just did get edged out, but not for a lack of effort on his part. Great battles all week man!

DapperDan wins the week for his first win of the Pownd. Good job Dawgg!

Well this was an extended week, due to a move here at Casa Zorro....looks like AcEr pulled out the win late Sunday night. Way to go bro!

Well the mighty homer has done it again this week. Way to go man. Also some server issues that have been occuring this week have been resolved.

homer wins the week for his second time...way to go!! He and BOSS killed so many bots Sunday, that the COOP maps won't even fill up. :P

Well now, looks like Diablo Verde got snaked while he was hard at work.

We finally caught up with some of those elusive recruits....welcome DapperDan and homer.

BOSS makes his return to the top again this week... we are still hunting a few elusive recruits, but they will get theirs...hehehe

We got a few new dawggs in the hizzzooooouuuuusssse....welcome CAYMIN BEAVERS and Hucking Fellers

homer pulls out the win this week in the last minutes of the weekly stats race just edging out DapperDan. Snaked him when he wasn't looking :) As always the archives page holds the details for the entire weeks stats on every player.

Deegan holds off a late charge by Diablo Verde to win a real squeaker this week. Good job man.

I have added two maps the the Download section. They are self installers, so have no fear. We may run these from time to time.

CaptainPain manages to hold off a late charge by BOSS to secure the win for this week.

BOSS wins this week in tight battle with Sarge.

Well look at what we got here...Gen X a Qshuner gets a win in a tight battle with BOSS.

Happy Holidays everyone. I will be out of town for the weekend, so the stats will be updated Sunday. We'll say mid-afternoon. :)

Finally caught those other evasive recruits :) Welcome H.H.Holmes and UNODIR

Please welcome the new Dawggs...AcEr,CaptainPain,General XL and Quank. There are still a few recruits out there that will be getting theirs as well.

AcEr wins this week with a whopping 142 rounds. Way to go, bro! I expect the new week to be a toss up with the holidays coming.

I have updated the sound files and also the CD patch. Again, I take no responsibility for the patch. :)

I have added some Conquest maps to the mix.

Quank wins!! This week is a milestone as the first non-Dawgg ever wins the stats for the week. Congrats to Quank from all of us. Well...maybe not BOSS :P

ATTENTION: If you are having problems with Punkbuster, you will find a file in the downloads section called pbweb. D/L this file and extract it to your "pb" folder located in your EAGAMES/Battlefield 1942 folder. Then run the program and it will update punkbuster for you.

The server has been updated to the new BF patch. You will need this patch to be able to connect to the server. Please either visit the official site, linked at the top, or I have also added this patch to the downloads section, also at the top. Sorry for any inconvenience, but it is a quick patch. :)

This week was a close one as ARAGORN was making a strong showing late Sunday night. My last round of El Alamein was enough to put me over the top just before the midnight cut off to snag the win from him at the last minute. :) rab was right in there as well.

Well it looks like BOSS put in a marathon session this weekend. Also please take note of the new Downloads link up at the top. You will find the Ventrilo software and some soundpacks that I made up for use if so desired. This will be the location of any custom maps that we may run in the future as well.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone.

Today will be the first outing of our weekly frag fest. The server will be passworded for a short time. These will be on Wednesday at 7:30 EST weekly. I urge you to sign up in the forum as we will from time to time be inviting players to join in the fun.

Well Boss finally ended his win streak this week. He just couldn't keep up with a full on Fox assault. Then again I suppose there is a possibility he may have laid down this week. hmmmmmm.... oh well, a win is a win. :P This week was also the most players we have attracted so far...321

rab has returned. Let us all rain missiles upon him in celebration. A ticker-death parade if you will. :P

Looks like BOSS whooped up on y'all while I was gone. Guess it's gonna be up to me to knock him off of the win streak

I will be gone for the weekend due to a family emergency, but I leave you with me on top of the stats...:P

Let us all welcome the new recruits Kilroy and ARAGORN.

It would appear that BOSS has done it again. Think I need to check the stats program and make sure it wasn't written by Diebold. We all know how things are being rigged around here nowadays. In any event, those poor, poor bots, what did they ever do to him? : P

We are currently running DC Final 0.8 on a test run. Please visit our links page and go to the Desert Combat site to get the mod and join in the test. It may be sticking around. Requesting Reinforcements!!

[dwg] BOSS manages to squeak by this week for another win. : P

I finally got around to making the ARCHIVES page I was using as a quick fix fit into the rest of Tarwn's design. Also, we will miss [dwg] rab for a short while as business calls him out of town. Hurry back dawgg!

Champ for the week of 10/24 is [dwg] BOSS!

The server will be passworded for a short time this evening for clan business, but we will be back open shortly.

Congrats to [dwg] BOSS this week's champ....Archives updated, yeah, I know, the page sucks, but what do you want for a 10 minute job. I worked late and had to create all the stuff on the site not to mention run the stats and check on DC Final. Yeah? Well, you know what the Quakers say? F%#K THEE.

Also, please welcome a new addition to the ranks...[dwg] Foxtrot Romeo. Welcome aboard soldier!! Making a comeback also welcome back [dwg] Rancid

I have added an archive link up at the top.These stat pages will show all of the players fr the week as opposed to the top 50. As of now it will only reflect the week of 10/10/04 since I messed up last weeks stats, this will be the innaugural run...we all know who won the real first week though ;) ...yeah, I know, I played the most rounds, but hey, I had to win the server the first week.

There is a new Dawgg in the POWND...welcome [dwg] BOSS.

I have linked the STATS link to the actual stats to save you guys a few clicks...and for my buddy MacGyver who couldn't figure out how to get through the forum to find the other link...:P

It has been a great first week of stats and quite a few good players to play with. Now, who is going to knock me off the top spot?

The stats are currently located in the forum as we are still working on a better stat program.

All hail the mighty Tarwn for he hath brought us much joy and he taketh not our load time with the new site...:) and there was much rejoicing...

Fox has the translated the new color scheme over to the forum, he's still *ahem* tweeking it a little, but it should still be functional...or functioning again that is :)
I spent a good part of the day editing the bf1942live script for the status page before noticing we had an older version. Got the latest version up now but I am already going through and adding more functionality. I may take some time tomorrow and go through and clean up all the HTML to make it a more compact download, ie faster viewing kicks butt :)
I still plan on replacing that FragFind box, I've noticed it not only lags the site down, but it also east pieces of the layout at times, making things all icky...

The new design for the website has been completed. We are still working on getting stats up but plan on having them up soon. We are slowly converting the rest of the site to use the same design and may work on a forum style to match a little later.
Completed:

• Graphics Re-design
• Front Page
• Server News
• Status Page Fixed

Still working on replacing the mini-stats box on the front page with something that loads faster and stats are an in-progress deal also.

We are considering a change to the clan tag for the Dawgg Pownd, currently X is test driving the [dwg] tag.

I am working on a new design for the website, strangely I have been getting kicked off the server a lot recently, coincidence? On a similar note, Fox and X have stopped colliding mid-air as frequently for which we are all quite happy...j/k :D

The site is up, forums are up, server is up, Requesting Reinforcements!
