Don't Forget!! >> Posted By: DirtyDeeds

America is springing forward. Most Americans trade an hour's sleep this weekend for more evening sunshine to enjoy after work. Officially the change to daylight saving time occurs at 2 a.m. Sunday, local time, though most folks set their clocks and watches ahead an hour before going to bed on Saturday. In areas that observe the change, clocks fall back when standard time returns Nov. 7. Article Provided by the Associated Press

STK Battle Arena >> Posted By: DirtyDeeds

Although this map has been up on the servers already for a couple of weeks now, I figured I would go ahead and do an official release since this map is completed. Map Name: dm_stk_battlearena_rc_final Spawn Points: 10 Map Type: Arena Style About the Map When I first started creating this map, my inspiration began with two other maps, dm_lostvillage & dm_lostarena. Not wanting to steal anything from those two maps, i studied each for about a week, ran around in each in offline mode, and made notes about what I liked about each, and then I set out to begin my creation. When I opened up Hammer and started the actual building process, I didn't know what I was going to end up with or how I was going to start. So I just started with the part that was the most difficult, and that is the curved corners. Being that I had never done those before, It only made sense to me to start there, so I did Total build time and error/fixing for me, was probably 2 weeks tops. I've have received some great comments about this map, so I encourage you to post a comment or a suggestion if you have not. This is my first GOOD map that has a 3d skybox, and i hope everyone enjoys it.. Screenshots

Valve Teases a Mac Release of Steam >> Posted By: DirtyDeeds

This should be very interesting indeed if they intend on a true release for mac OS
