Welcome
Global Gamers is an IRC network that was formed on one simple concept: gaming should be fun!

We know games are there to be enjoyed, and we don't want to complicate something that's supposed to be a source of entertainment...

GG DP League: Week 1 wrap-up - Posted by ViciouZ on August 28, 2010
After many weeks of planning, the GlobalGamers Digital Paint: Paintball 2 League is in full swing. With a few minor exceptions, the first week of matches has been a huge success, with all teams able to meet their match schedules and play their matches! Although one team, Insane Junction, withdrew from the league, they will be replaced with an all-new team of paintball crack-shots: the GlobalGamers Staff Team! Look out DPers!
If you haven't been following events, a video wrap-up of this week's league results are available here. Not much to look at - but here's where you come in! If you're an aspiring film-maker who plays paintball, the League Team needs YOU! We're looking for somebody with the necessary editing skills to put together highlights videos of the best league matches. If you're interested, or just want to keep up with what's going on in the league, come join us in #dpleague!

Server updates status - Posted by LoreOfSerpents on August 25, 2010
Thank you all for bearing with us today while we performed some maintenance on our adventure, icarus, and boss servers!
The webserver update in particular was a little crazy. Our intention was to have a backup webserver going early this morning, to minimize any disruption and so you guys would hardly notice any outage. However, it didn't exactly go as planned, and our website was down for much longer than we originally anticipated.
We are very sorry for any inconvenience, especially to the Digital Paint folks, who somehow managed to pull off the first day of the league even without the information from the website. Thank you, guys!
We're pleased to report that the webserver is updated and happy with its shiny new OS. We still need to reorganize a few things on the server, but we'll make sure to do that during off-peak periods and hopefully you won't notice any differences.
icarus, fortunately, went much more smoothly. All of the necessary updates were performed without any disruptions. The server is now activated and ready for users again!
boss also received its update today! The update is expected to have resolved what caused our California server to split off a few days ago.
With that, all of our US servers are currently back up and running. Thanks for your patience!
