The Gathering
Just a quick update
Hello again!
Just a quick pm to confirm that our .org domain is back up and running! We've taken a couple of weeks to sort it out, but thanks to Wotok for sorting it
Just a reminder that in the future you can use both .org and .co.uk to access this website.
Also - you officially have 24 hours to make any last nominations for whoever you think should win this years Nikonus Award! Pick the person you think who has made the best and most positive contribution to TG and pm one of the admins.
All for now,
Goaty

Nikonus Award 2009
Each year we award a £50 prize in memory of Nick Butcher (TG|Nikonus) as recognition of their character and everything positive that they've brought to our community. Nick was always a comedian and a friend, and this award is given in his name to the TG member who has made the best positive difference to this community in the year preceding the 23rd of March.
You can read the full history of the event in the wiki pages but the long and the short of it is that nominations are now open, and we're looking for your thoughts on who should win it for this year. Have a think, and send your nomination to one of the clan admins by pm, email or xfire etc. Everyone gets a say, so tell us who you think should get it now!

Hiya,
Now that the merge with TGT has settled in a bit, we're interested to find out how you're interacting with TG still.
Do you use the website?
Do you just chat and game on xfire?
We want to know! Come join the discussion on the forums here: http://www.thegroupthing.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=75&t=350

Server viewer completed!
Most, if not all of our new servers are now online and running! We've also upgraded the server viewer on the website, so you can now keep track of all the available servers which you can go play on.
Go to the TG website menu and just click on the "servers" link

TGT Integration Plan
OK, after about 2 weeks of waiting TGT have finally sorted out everything we've asked for and so we're ready to integrate our forums!
There will be several changes to the website and servers over the next few days:
More news (and reveiws)
Some new banners
22 new gameservers!!
New large vent and TS servers
The main thing will be that this forum will be mothballed though. Instead, we've asked TGT to re-arrange their forum so we can have a small private area for our teams alongside all the other areas which we're used to.
Some names have changed but there is still a TG General, a Spam Forum, and Forums for all our games.
The benefit will be that we get to chat to ~50 other nice guys who play the same games that we play, and then we'll be able to go game on the uber fast servers!
Your user login has already been copied across, so you should be able to go straight over and log into the TGT forums:

As of the 12 February we'll change the forum...

TG are joining TGT!
We are due to join The Group Thing over the coming days and weeks. TGT are a group of like minded clans who go for "no grief gaming" and who fit in with how TG work really well. They also have a kick-ass sponsorship deal and dedi which we will be able to use!
They are really friendly, so be sure to go post on the TGT forums, and join their xfire clans group - http://www.xfire.com/clans/groupthing/
