FNG - Friday Night Gaming ... Hosted by Jeff Litster

Founded in 1997, FNG was created to provide a community of gamers with an open invitation to come matchmake for some serious gaming. The vision behind FNG is to build a network of friends large enough that every week, an individual can show up with a game in mind that he/she would like to play, and be able to find a group of friends (not random strangers on the net) to play together.

Through the years, FNG has seen over 100 gamers come and go, with as many as 12-14 people showing in a given week.

The concept started using Kali as a meeting place. When game companies started providing free servers specific to their games, most of the gamers dispersed from Kali and FNG resorted to using AOL Instant Messenger (AIM).

We're getting to the point where we have gamers on all different IM programs and are currently seeking alternative means of matchmaking We're considering a web-based IRC client with a channel on Xmission's IRC Server as well as Xfire. Who knows, we may even go back to Kali if it still rocks as hard as it did back in the late 90's.

We officially begin at 11:00pm Mountain Time every Friday as to save grace with our significant others/families, though some of the FNGers are known to appear as early as 9:00 or 10:00. In addition to AIM|IRC, we "communicate" (trash-talk) via an audio-conferencing bridge graciously provided by TelNetZ.

If you're in the mood to game with a fun-loving bunch of gamers that love gaming for the sport, don't whine every time we lose, and play with a non-rushing-keep-you-on-your-toes-with-different-strategies-each-new-game style on the RTS side of things, then please look for us. We love to add to our community.
