       i did all the injection and hoop jumping to get it installed.  i
       was able to join a server (albeit empty) and run a route.
       Having to start over from scratch with all the loadout stuff
       will take some time.  I assume it is all pickups in discord as
       it did not appear to have any pubbing going on.  this makes
       sense given the fact that you have to jump through 12 gyrations
       of apps and verification steps just to create your account, most
       people are not going to do that unless they are already there
       for tribes in the first place.  we'll see, it was nice to feel
       it again but was never much of a pickup fan.

       yea, felt kind of weird, like a movie you once loved that
       doesn't quite holdup with time.  something just feels off lol
       not better with age in this case.  Honestly not sure I want to
       take the time to get back into it proper, think the memory at
       this point is better than the current iteration.

       The players and their arbitrary restrictions about how it should
       be played are the issue. A quote I heard last night was that the
       'plasma gun is a good weapon'.  This would have been lampooned
       on the old hi-rez forums. The meta on what is good or not will
       be difficult to adjust to and feels warped.  If it works for
       them and keeps the game alive, great.  It might not be for built
       for us OG Ascend comp players.
       We won't be able to join a server on the same team like the old
       public servers with the way things are set up.  PUG culture
       definitely was around when we were playing but it's the only
       thing left at this point and the small community are guarding it
       closely with gameplay restrictions.  I think I will dip my toes
       in from time to time now that I have it set up.
       PUGs (which aren't the same thing as the 'mixers')  have
       different restrictions. I will give them a shot.

       Sharkhax and I were able to get verified after talking to the
       admin named Dodge.  The bot instructions are not working at the
       moment afaik.  You are going to need an admin to send you a
       verification code.
       In the sharp launcher use the options
       Login Server:
       Custom
       tribes-wkume.centralus.cloudapp.azure.com
       Login with your unverified account.
       Message the server admins to get a verification code.  Dodge is
       extremely helpful.
       When they give you a code,
       Go to the store page, click redeem promotion and enter the code.
       Logout and login again with your hirez credentials.  You should
       be verified.  No 'unvrfd' prefix on your account name.
       After talking to dodge for a bit he was definitely understanding
       of our perspective. PUGs may be more appropriate for us than
       Mixers.  PUGS do not have the gun restrictions, but do have some
       balance changes.
       Cheers,
