When I open #thinkingwithportals on EFnet, there's nobody there. Why?

The same reason there are only 2 or 3 new posts each day on the forums?

We also need to get GLaDOS and all the old regulars back in there.

Also, why did they leave?

Well, I've started hanging around in there, a bit while doing other things, and checking back every 15 minutes or so. Hop in if you want to chat.

It does seem like the IRC channel has flatlined lately. I guess people are just preferring to use the forums, but still...

Oh I had this map that I'd been working on for two months and I was really proud of. Anyway I was working on it using a friends machine because at the time I didn't have a computer capable of playing decent games and this guy's computer was broken and he was about to go overseas for two months.

So I fixed the machine for him (faulty RAM, btw) and he let me use it while he was gone. When he came back he wanted it formatted so i copied everything I needed off it and did the job for him. Everything except the map I was working on. Even msleeper liked it, he recommended that I enter it in that month's contest.

There's no discouragement like losing two months of solid work which you're really proud of. It put me off source mapping for ages, and I kinda dropped off this site (and IRC) without notice.

Anyways, here I am.

That's kinda sad, really.

Anyways, I've taken the channel back if anyone wants to drop in and idle with me. Or even chat, that's cool too.
