So does the online multiplayer for Worms: Armageddon, ChanServ and all.



random fun fact, the creator of Worms used to hang out on a #worms channel on IRCnet. It was a lot of fun for many years, but eventually Andy left and people slowly drifted away as the Amiga scene shrank, and now all that's left is me and a few people who weren't even there in the original era, in a #worms channel on ARCNet (I forget why we moved from IRCnet).

Sadly, I have no logs from the old days, so all I have is memories of lots of CTCP SOUND shenanigans.


IIRC the original Battlenet (Starcraft etc) also used it.


Yes! We had Diablo 2 Battle.net bots that were IRC clients. :) Fond memories.
