Fire Team Charlie is back online
Benny, from XboxOttawa.ca, lets us know that not only is the site back up and running (it has been for a few days now), but all the FTC vids are available there again (in both DivX and QT formats). They're working on the next episode... but if you missed any of the first six, stop by! (Louis Wu 21:30:58 UTC)

Team Ice is Back in Business
Team Ice, Blade's programming/gaming site that was doing some movie mirroring for the Halo community before it went offline for bandwidth overage, is back up and running. Downloads are now handled by a separate server, so the chances are good that the overage will not occur again. Blade is still in the process of uploading popular movies, so check back in the next day or so if there's something you need that isn't available elsewhere. (For example, XboxOttawa.ca, home of Fire Team Charlie and some very popular vids, went offline recently, also for bandwidth overages; Team Ice has the .AVI versions of the FTC films up now, with the QuickTime versions coming soon.) When one falls, another rises! This community rocks. (Louis Wu 20:08:06 UTC)

FTC6: The Story of Squatting Bear
Fire Team Charlie has finished FTC 6 - their most ambitious piece yet. Editing is fantastic, sound is good (though still rough in places) - this one has to be downloaded! One of these days, I gotta try that warthog trick... This one is 5:55 long, 20 mb, 352x128, in DivX5-encoded AVI format. (A 15.2 mb QuickTime version has been created, but I'm not sure where it's going to be hosted.) Stop by XboxOttawa.ca and grab this! Mirrors are, of course, highly appreciated - download the vid, send us a link, and we'll be sure to make it public. Thanks! (Louis Wu 17:59:22 UTC)

FTC lives again
XboxOttawa.ca, the home of Fire Team Charlie, is back online, at a new host - details at their website. New vid coming soon, they hope. Thanks to Blade for the heads-up. (Don't forget to stop by Blade's Team Ice site if you wanna help with their bandwidth overload.) (Louis Wu 02:42:04 UTC)

FTC: Bad News and Good News
The Bad News: XboxOttawa.ca seems to have gone down; no word on how long, or why. The Good News: Blade has mirrored both Episode 4 and Episode 5 of Fire Team Charlie's vids at his Team Ice movie mirror. We'll continue to update you on the movie situation... there are a lot of people trying to help fix the problem right now. I'm hopeful we'll have good news soon. (Louis Wu 16:13:01 UTC)

FTC 5 is out
Fire Team Charlie released their 5th movie yesterday; you can find it on their website. Sound quality is vastly improving, and humor quality remains quite high. 16.5 mb, DivX 5 format (though I've got a 9.4 mb QuickTime version that I'm going to try and get to them)... go grab it!

You want movies? We got movies.
We didn't release any movies yesterday because I was out of town... but here are a few more from the queue. These have all been released on their own already - but bandwidth might have been tight, or you might have chosen not to download them because we weren't hosting them. (That may sound silly to some of you... but one side effect of our Movie Posting Guidelines is that if we choose not to host a movie, some visitors choose to conserve their bandwidth and pass on the movie altogether.) Anyway, here you go:
- 300 Meter Flag Throw - SleekShadow has taken the trick shown in Maverick's recent CTF 2 movie and applied it on the Blue side of Blood Gulch - for a total distance of 300 meters (half again as far as the throw Maverick showed with the red flag). Original details are here. 6.6 mb, QT5.
- Sidewinder Saga - series trailer. Original description is here. 5.8 mb, QT5.
- FTC Episodes 1,2,and 3 - Fire Team Charlie has put out three very different (but all very funny) vids; we're mirroring them. (The originals are here. Video 1 was first described here, Video 2 here, and Video 3 here. Mac users will need to run these through DivX Doctor II to be able to hear them properly.
- FTC Video 1 (DivX 5, 7.0 mb)
- FTC Video 2 (DivX 5, 4.8 mb)
- FTC Video 3 (DivX 5, 12.4 mb)
Hmm... let's see, that's 36.6 mb of videos - but luckily, some of you already have these. Grab the ones you don't! (Please, for the sake of our bandwidth, actually CHECK to see if you have these; don't waste Mythica's freely-given bandwidth if you don't need the files... it would be terrible if the resource were yanked because folks were too lazy to conserve.) Coming tomorrow - new content (that is, not seen before on other sites). (Louis Wu 19:00:00 UTC)
