Weekly Chat Time!

It is time for the official chat of the week! It has reached the mid-point of the rough draft writing period of the Cap-Ironman Big Bang. How is everyone doing? I know some people are finished and others are just starting. If you are stuck and need help or motivation we are there for you. And remember even if you haven't 'officially' signed up you can still participate as long as you have your rough draft ready to turn in by September 22nd, the initial hand in date.

If you aren't involved in the Big Bang, you are welcome to show up as well and talk of other things. So, come hang out and chat! Lurkers are welcome as well. :P

Next week's chat will be on Sunday. Don't forget that you can log into the irc channel at any point during the week. Normally, there will be other people around.

The #cap-im IRC channel is on DALnet. If you’re using a regular irc client the server is irc.dal.net and the channel is #cap-im. There are three different options below of web clients. If one doesn't work try a different one.

Got to https://kiwiirc.com/client. Type in the nickname you wish to use. The channel name is #cap-im. There will be a little blue link that opens up the server and network info. Click on that and enter irc.dal.net as the server and 6667 as the port. Here is an example of what it looked like when I filled it out.

Teyke found yet another web client option if the two above aren't working. Go to http://www.wsirc.com/ and fill out the box to the right like Teyke's example below.


Last chat there were a few people who were able to get the http://www.dal.net/ web client working, so I've added it back here. Under Chat Now fill in your nickname and #cap-im.
