9/8/04 - Tribes: Vengeance The third installment of the Tribes series, being developed by Vivendi Universal (yeah, Dynamix is looong gone), is scheduled to be out soon. My desktop is acting screwy, so who knows when I'll play it, but the beta for Tribes: Vengeance is already available from FilePlanet!

7/5/04 - Summer Cleaning Worked on some broken links in The Mod Resource and realized how outdated most of that stuff was. Went through and fixed a whole bunch of broken links... a lot are still down and I could not find a trace to follow, so... sorry about that!

5/5/04 - Tribes and Tribes 2 for free!! Trying to get some hype going for the third installment in the series, the makers of Tribes:Vengeance have made the first two games available for free download! Go to FilePlanet to get one or both!

1/19/04 - LT maps; Need help? Noticed many Tribes servers are running the LT mappack so I thought I'd mirror that here. Also, anyone who needs hosting for their TRIBES maps, skins, huds, etc. should let me know. I may be able to help you out by posting your stuff, send an today!

3/4/03 - Warm New Home! Welcome to Crazy Goat Tribes at iamthathero.com! Now that I'm paying for the hosting this site should be here to stay...Click here to see what the site's old entrance looked like, for posterity's sake (whatever that means!).

4/3/02 - Updated T2 Maps Today I uploaded a new version of IceLand by RavensBro, yesterday I put up an updated DesertRain. Both maps can be found with RavensBro's Tribes 2 maps.

3/26/02 - I am quite possibly the worst gamer of all time...procrastinating on another paper, played for about an hour tonight. Know what my score was at the end of the game? 16. I suck really bad, got trashed all over the place by the (MA) guys. I hung out in the basement defending my team's generators for the last few minutes and saw zero action which I guess is better for my team since I usually killed myself anyway. The game was sweet though, one of our guys carried the flag all the way back to the base...and then died. I flew out from the basement just in time to see a defending heavy carry the flag to our stand with under 10 seconds left -- final score: 415 to 412. My team wins. Not that I had anything to do with it, but yeah. Later.

3/25/02 - Nothing much I played pretty bad tonight. I think that's what happens when you only play once a month or so...but that's the great thing about games. Today's shout outs go to the guys who were kicking my butt: SneakyMcPokePoke and Goombastomper. Also tdogg and FatesWarning[Inq] came in at the end of the last game to drag my team to victory. Keep up the good work, fellas -- tough, friendly gamers are what keep the community going!

2/3/02 - Tale of Battle Ah yes, Dust to Dust. The dry air, sandy terrain, sparse cacti. I've always hated that map! Played some Tribes 2 tonight for the first time in awhile, and it was a blast. A 2 on 4 game, and I was on the team with 2 people...but to the credit of the Phoenix team, one of their 4 "men" was a BOT. I finished the game with 450 points, the best I've done in some time - and although the score wouldn't indicate it, it was a close fight. Now I remember why these games are so much fun. Good game, Gobblerctowns and GobblerEtowns! If you stop by, make sure to sign the guestbook! God bless, readers, and remember...have fun!

1/10/02 - New Year, time for NEWS! Finally (and by finally, I mean used friggin' notepad because nothing else works with WinXP) have some RavensBro updates for everyone! RavensBro has been running 2 servers, one for Tribes and one for Tribes 2. Both servers are named "RavensBro Maps" and are a great way to play against other fans of his maps! He also updated maps to accomodate for the latest patch, and has 2 new maps -- check the RavensBro T2 page to check 'em out. Thanks!

10/17/01 - Jones Soda rocks! And this is random! I just uploaded some funny pictures to the Jones Soda website as label entries. Go check it out, and... for me if you like my pictures. Thanks!

10/2/01 - New T2 Map RavensBro sent in a new Tribes 2 map today, it's a variant of his TwoLakes map. He got some requests for a daylight version of the map and you can get it here now...

9/22/01 - CG Census 2001 Click the "Filelist" link in the left frame to get the goods. Finally I got around to counting up all the downloads, and I'm well on my way to actually having links to every single file on the site integrated into a single page. The real challenge was the navigation for such a page but I think I've got it figured out, the best of all worlds. Every file on the same page, but with navigation simplified so that you don't have to scroll for hours looking for everything. I will try to get the complete Crazy Goat file collection added soon, and I plan to do some bigger zip files of maps and such. Until then...

9/18/01 - Put RavensBro's T2 maps into a table, the page was just looking too stretched out but I think it looks much nicer now. The Goat Census should be coming soon...I have been planning it for awhile and now that I have CoffeeCup HTML Editor 9.0 I'm sure I could make it a very worthwhile addition. As soon as I've got some spare time I'll get right to that - as for now, I have a TON of homework that I should have started a couple hours ago.

9/13/01 - RavensBro just keeps plugging away. He sent me 2 more maps for Tribes 2, which have been added now. And this has already been said a thousand times but cannot be said enough: God bless the souls of the innocents killed by Tuesday's acts of terrorism. May He help our leaders to make the right decisions, and protect America's people from further fear and pain.

9/1/01 - The hits just keep coming...RavensBro has sent in 4 new Tribes 2 maps, bringing the current total up to 16. What are you waiting for, find the link on the left side of your screen and check it out!

8/26/01 - Come Get It They're up - RavensBro's Tribes 2 maps have been posted! Check out all 12 of these great new maps, only here at Crazy Goat Tribes.

8/25/01 - I'm still Alive Yes, it has been over 2 months since I updated. But for once, that doesn't mean there is nothing new to look forward to here at Crazy Goat Tribes! I recently moved into a dorm for my freshman year of college, so things have been hectic. The good news is, now I have a monster connection. I intend to use this to mirror some of the larger mods that I formerly was incapable of uploading. Thus far I have mirrored Havoc and Anarchy. New RavensBro maps (this time for T2!) will be up very, very soon:-)

6/12/01 Fixed some old links today, should have a new computer soon! Ordered a loaded Dell 8100 for college, looking forward to the upgrade. Considering buying Tribes 2 but I'm not sure...I lost my Tribes CD somehow so I might just shell out $10 for a new copy at Wal-Mart. I'd love to see what it looks like outside of software mode!

5/6/01 - Phew... Alright I'm pretty sure that was too close of a call. Congrats to TribalWar on their newfound server independence! And thanks to Bacchus for making the transition fairly painless. Now, to see if I can actually get all this to work.

5/2/01 - Noooooo!! So, I've been getting like 6 hits a day here. And I just checked my mail, and apparently I'm about 30 seconds from being dropped by tribalwar. Dang it! It would seem as if I'm some kind of moron. Hopefully this site will still be up in a few days....

3/23/01 - Made some additions to The Mod Resource. Noticed on PSS for the first time today that Tribes 2 will be out the very beginning of April, too bad my computer couldn't handle it and I've got no money! It also is a shame that I highly doubt that I would have time to maintain a T2 site...although I have considered it. Anyway, what's here is what's here, I will try to continue updating should the opportunity arise. Last I saw it looked like Crazy Spawne was doing a pretty good job of stealing my content/ideas anyway, so I doubt if it'd be worth the trouble=)

3/20/01 - The big....25,000? I was happy to see today that the site had gotten 25 thousand hits! Also, I would like to wish the best of luck to the Miami East men's basketball team. Thursday they will play in the Ohio DIII state semifinal game. Should they win, it will be onward to the state final on Saturday. No one reading this knows what I'm talking about, but who cares...GO VIKINGS!!

2/13/01 - Happy Valentine's Day! wow and i thought i was being lazy before...geez more than a month! sorry everybody for the laziness. ever since i've switched ISP's to dirty microsoft network, i can't send email from my uniquefarm account so my apologies for that, as well. i updated the site with some great stuff from the gamerslist.com team. despite the lack of updates crazy goat tribes has still been doing alright on hits, thanks everyone for your support! i will try to update better in the future...

1/2/01 - Happy New Year! Yes another year has passed us by, and now here we are in 2001. It's also a new millenium for those who know how to count to a hundred, but enough dweeby whining from me...anyway, I received a link for another sweet clan site, visit the Men of Honor tribe's site today! BTW for those who may be wondering.....Crazy Goat Tribes is NOT a clan site, it's just me:-)

12/25/00 - It's Christmas!?!? Got a link in my email today for a pretty cool looking site...go check out the sotd clan page!

12/23/00 - Merry Christmas!The big idea I just recently came up with is as follows: with T2 on the horizon, many T1 mods are bound to be forgotten. Popularity will decrease, updates will grind to a halt. This is perfectly normal - after all, who wants to play the older game once the new one is out? But if there's one thing I hate, it's broken links. That's why I want T1 modders to know I'm willing to adopt their mod into my site with just one email to me (click on Goatboy above), rather than have their angelfire, tripod, geocities, etc. site go dead. I will do everything I can to see that for many months to come, Tribes fans will be able to come to Crazy Goat Tribes and find any mod they want, no hassle. This game has a great online community, and I know you all will help me out:-) Also, anyone who has or knows of a mod not listed on The Mod Resource, drop me a line with a link and I'll fix ya right up!

12/7/00 - RavensBro, cont'd... That's right, even more great maps from RavensBro, only here at Crazy Goat Tribes! His latest maps, SpaceFort and SeekAndFind, bring his CTF map total up to 50! Go to RavensBro Central for those files today, also I updated the CTF map pack so the latest files are included. And for ppl who may have had trouble downloading his Duel maps...well I screwed that section up big time, but fear not, RavensBro clued me in and it's all fixed now! And yeah, I do plan to update The Mod Resource eventually...

11/29/00 - Updates?!?! Yes, RavensBro sent me a bunch of new stuff! It has been so long since I made a sizeable update, thanks RavensBro! Lol...I need to update The Mod Resource to, I will try to take care of that shortly. But for now, go to RavensBro Central and check out the new Football maps and CTF maps - over a dozen new maps altogether!

11/26/00 - Waiting IS the Hardest Part... Just saw at planetstarsiege that Tribes 2 was voted #1 in PCGamer magazine's most recent "Waiting is the Hardest Part" article. I do know of a couple people who will go insane if T2 isn't out by Christmas...Hey wait, I made an update too! Ok well it's nothing big, but if you check out the FunGuns section you'll find 'FlagRunners', he sent me that awhile back and I finally posted it. To all you fellow high school/college students, good luck toughing out the upcoming weeks before Christmas break....

11/21/00 - No news... Hey there really hasn't been much news to report lately. T2 will be coming out soon and I am ticked at my computer for not being able to handle it (namely at my crappy ATI 4 meg graphics chip integrated into the motherboard). All I can say is check TribalWar for new screenies as often as possible. Also Tribes2.com has more and more kewl stuff all the time, so it'd be smart to stop by there for your T2 fix. Tuki out, happy Thanksgiving everybody.

11/4/00 - Go Vote! It's been forever since I updated (again), sorry everyone. Just wanted to remind you to get out and vote on Tuesday. Unfortunately I am not yet old enough to vote - but those of you who are, make sure to take advantage of this opportunity! Democracy won't work if everyone acts stupid....

10/9/00 - More RavensBro Goodness...earlier RavensBro sent me updated versions of a LOT of his maps as well as a new map, BigArenaCTF. So those are up now, plus check the RavensBro Clientside/Custom section for 7 new TeamDM maps.

9/30/00 - That's embarassing I was working on the other two RavensBro sections (ClientSide/Dueling Maps, Skins) when I noticed that ALL of the links on the RavensBro mapping section were wrong! I uploaded all the files, but didn't link to the correct directory on the page. Also I realized that some of the map names were hard to read due to the background of the table, so I changed it - now the map name is highlighted on mouseover. Hopefully those are the only problems I had, anyway they are fixed now, the rest of the RavensBro stuff should go up today:-)

9/29/00 - Crazy Goat @ Gameloft I was happy today to see that TribalWar, and therefore Crazy Goat Tribes, are now a part of GameLoft.com. Congrats on the cool new site and location, fellas!

9/18/00 - Welcome aboard, RavensBro Looking for great new maps? Look no further than Crazy Goat Tribes! Just click on the RavensBro Central button in the left frame for over 40 maps and cool skins (coming soon) to top it off! Hope you enjoy this latest, great addition to the site.

9/12/00 - Aw, what the heck... Well I know I retired (if that's what you'd wanna call it, guess you can't really retire if you weren't getting paid to begin with) awhile back and keep b.s.ing myself about how I'll just leave well enough alone, but who cares. For some reason, now that school's back in session and I have homework coming out my ears, I figured a few updates (some polish, if you would) were in order. I started tonight with a bunch of updates to The Mod Resource, much more to come...Ah yes, and make sure to enter in GameSpy's contest, you could be one of ten lucky beta testers!

9/2/00 - This just in... get the RavensBro map pack (nearly 40 in all!) right here. the file is just 254kb, download this puppy today!

7/16/00 - YokTuki back from the dead!!(but it's just temporary:-)...well today i had nobody to talk to so i figured i'd play some Tribes (for like the first time in 4 months:( and the first server i tried to connect to was version 1.11....so of course i can't connect because i'm at version 1.10.5, at first i thought mebbe i'd just never installed the update on my own machine but then i realized it wasn't up here either!! needless to say i had to make this ONE FINAL addition, geeze those dynamix guys just never no when to quit updating;-) well here is the latest patch, plus i understand Tribes2.com is online, everyone should check that out. oh yes, and while i was at it i put up a new quote for your enjoyment, plz sign the guestbook if you haven't already...thanks!

6/22/00 - Sheesh it's been almost a month since the last news item...sorry, I've been getting worse all the time. I put up the last few FunGuns maps; don't let my lack of enthusiasm fool you because they're all great. I'm sure you folks noticed that Crazy Goat Tribes (and the Tribes universe in general) has started to wind down. This will be my final entry. The Mod Resource is just plain huge, I've got more maps than I care to count, plus Tribes Invaders is a fun exclusive, there's a helpful scripts section - so on and so forth. Make sure you scavenge the entire site for every last fun-filled item :-) Thanks to everyone who contributed to, helped publicize, and heck even to anyone who visited and appreciated Crazy Goat Tribes. I consider it a success seeing as I spent exactly $0 making it and taught myself HTML along the way thanks to my uncle. I'll be signing off now...

5/25/00 - Links finally i put up a links page. go check it out! i also added a couple more mods to the list.

5/11/00 - HvMechBot updated again?! head on to the hvmechbot section and grab v.096a of the mod NOW! that's right, i've gotten so lazy that the only time i update is when mr. x sends me a new version of the mod. ok, well it's not that bad, i added a couple more mods at least - the mod resource is up to 65! i'm getting lazy with my grammar too as u can see, can't wait till summer break:)

5/3/00 - HvMechBot v.096 Get the new version of HvMechBot today! Many improvements and changes from the last release, only available here!

4/23/00 - Happy Easter!Added 3 more of FunGuns' maps, more will go up soon. Plus check out the usual updates to The Mod Resource, and don't forget Quote of the Week

4/1/00 - Recent updates: Hi everyone, I just got back from taking the ACT for the first time but somehow have not gone crazy(er). Check out The Mod Resource, you'll find the latest versions of Pantheon, StarSiegeCraft, TAC and more. Plus I received an email informing me about this cool new Tribes site you'll want to check out. Last, but certainly not least, I'm working on the page for a combination of two mods, it's called HvMechBot, check out that section for more details.

3/28/00 - An update? Holy crap! The Balanced map section is FINALLY complete, I added the last three maps. Made a lot of updates to The Mod Resource also. You may not have noticed the Quote of the Week archives, just click here.

3/14/00 - Happy Pi Day! (don't ask) Slowly but surely, I'm gettin the Balanced maps up. I added four today, also you can find the usual updates to The Mod Resource, latest version of VIP, Havoc, Screaming Fist, etc.

3/7/00 - Super Tuesday update... Alright this doesn't actually have anything to do with the elections but I just wanted to say that. I started work on Tribe/S/earch, the Tribes search engine! Although only the tribalwar sites and the tribes-universe frontpage have been spidered as of now, the engine is working so I posted it in case anybody wants to take it for a spin.

3/4/00 - Laugh, dang it! Added a couple new minor features to the site to spiff things up a bit. The Mod Resource has gotten so big now (60 entries as of today) that it takes awhile to find stuff. So, I put in a link scroller at the top which will allow you to download the newest and most recently updated mods immediately, you don't have to tell me I know I'm some kind of genius.....lol. Oh yeah, also I started "quote of the week" on the intro page so people have a reason not to skip it (aside from the fact that it just looks so cool:). Each week - or however often I remember - I'll put up a different humorous anecdote. Sorry bout the big words, anecdote is just a funny word (but not as funny as European;).

3/1/00 - It would seem that I'm a moron...just realized that although I deleted all of the mods from my old account, I failed to change the download links. Just took care of it, now you can get them all from tribalwar's very fast servers.

2/25/00 - Yes! Crazy Goat Tribes is now a proud member of TribalWar! If you can't get to something please be patient, the server change will take a little while. Everything will be up and running in a few days. To the folks at tribalwar.com and everyone else who has helped Crazy Goat Tribes get this far, thanks. - YokTuki

2/17/00 - 1.10.5 Patch This new patch addresses a few minor bugs not covered in version 1.10. Get it from the Scripts/Patches area now!

2/16/00 - Allow me to apologize for the lack of news. Just made a whole bunch of updates to The Mod Resource: Ravenstorm, Stormbots, Extreme, and the newest versions of HardCorps and Havoc.

2/4/00 - PC Gamer Awards: I got the newest PC Gamer today, their 6th Annual Awards results are in it. Tribes was awarded runner-up for Best Multiplayer Game of 1999. It also gained recognition for Special Achievement in Innovation. Eat that, Q3 Arena!

2/3/00 - 1.10 PATCH RELEASED! Get the latest (and probably final) version of Tribes from the scripts/patches area today!

1/31/00 - Killed off the non-frames version of the site today. I doubt anyone really cares, the framed version is easier to use anyway. Keeping up with two different versions of the page just would not have been humanly possible. Speaking of which, I added Spoonbot for the StarWars mod, Hard Corps, and STARmod to The Mod Resource. Look for the Balance maps soon.

1/26/00 - Well, to say that I re-arranged things would be an understatement. Now all you loyal surfers can browse Crazy Goat Tribes with or without frames, hope you like the changes. Click goatboy up at the top of this page if you want to email me with your comments.

1/23/00 - Improved the layout (again), put Duke's maps and the OpenCall maps onto their own pages. Hopefully now it's even easier to get to what you want. Look for the FunGuns map section to be complete in about a week, the OpenCall section should be done tonight.

1/18/00 - Updates: Added newest versions of Spoonbot and the Professional mod. Also, Renegades Elite is now the latest official version of Renegades.

1/8/00 - Added Renegades Elite and Tribal Combat to the mod list.

1/5/00 - Have you voted for Tribes II yet in the Gamespy Grudge? I just did and as of now (3:11pm est) Tribes II is now ahead of Team Fortress II by 3%. Cast your vote now at planetstarsiege!

1/4/00 - A big day This is one we've been looking forward to for a looong time. Noodles has released the StarWars: Battleground mod! Get it from the mod page first chance you get. You will now also find the first half of the OpenCall maps on the map pages. For those of you who never downloaded the whole pack, now you can check out descriptions and screens, then download them individually!

1/3/00 - That seems weird.. even though it's a year until the new millenium and all the Y2K hype was crap (told you so:), it does seem odd to have double zeros for the date. Anyway, the new versions of StarSiegeCraft, Professional, and Tribes Arena are up. As for the OpenCall map reviews, it'll be a day or two before the first batch gets posted. Compared to the usual single-digit zip files maps come in, these babies are huge!

12/22/99 - Uploaded new versions of Spoonbot and Tribes Racer, as well as so much other stuff I can't even remember. Merry Christmas everyone!

12/10/99 - Updates... Added DuckHunt, Pantheon, and Asylum to The Mod Resource. 47 mods total!

12/8/99 - WWW Tribes news: Well I know this is too little too late, but thought I should put an update for those of you who have been under a rock somewhere for the past week or two. The former Planet-Tribes staff has opened Tribal War, Tribes Extreme has been cancelled, and Datumplane is closing down! This is all old news so I'm assuming you've heard it already, but like I said I had to post something about all this important stuff. I personally didn't care much about Tribes Extreme to begin with, but as for Schnoz at datumplane and the Tribal War guys, best of luck to all of you.

12/6/99 - Sorry it's been so long, I've had a lot going on. Lots of new stuff added today, S4L mod and StarSiegeCraft, plus new version (1.2) of the Professsional Mod. Also got an update from Duke, this is really cool. Searches_End (one of his maps) now includes custom turrets, look for even more from him soon.

11/23/99 - Updates: Added 2 new maps, "Track_16" and "Xenophobe", added TeamDM mod to list, increasing the total mods listed to 42.

11/23/99 - Everyone should head on over to the new CG Exclusives section and check it out! You can get three cool new maps by Raoul Duke, if you really trust me you can download the whole pack right here.

11/21/99 - Posted 2 of LadyShar's new maps, Quad Temple and Run the Halfpipe. Also added R1 mod and some more mod descriptions.

11/20/99 - What do you think of the new layout? It all started when AnalogKid sent me the sweet new logo he made, I like it much better this way.

11/19/99 - Added great new playspoon stuff...latest version of spoonbot, plus the new Tribes Racer mod!

11/17/99 - Uploaded new versions of MultiMessage and the Havoc mod. More than a dozen of the descriptions are up on the mods page now, hope you like the pop-ups (they took forever).

11/13/99 - A Y2K Preview? (just kidding, hopefully you realize this whole Y2K thing is B.S.) Ack! Tribesplayers and Planet-tribes are both down! Planet-tribes is changing hosts, I don't know what's going on with tribesplayers. Anyway, started adding pop-up description windows to the mod page, uploaded new version of NDG Renegades.

11/10/99 - Added SixPak to scripts, added EDO 4020 A.D. and Rabbit to mods.

11/8/99 - He's baaack! Sorry about the lack of updates everyone, I was in DC for a few days. Great fun, I'm still tired so this one will be brief. No updates yet today, but look for descriptions soon in the mods section.

10/30/99 - Added Dragon Ball Z, AnAThrax, Need for Speed, Might and Magic, and Renegades 2K to mod list, plus uploaded version 1.91 of NDG Renegades. Gameslists.net is having cgi problems, in case anyone was wondering why their link won't work.

10/29/99 - Once again, I've made some additions. There are now over 30 maps posted, the best ever made, see the map section for downloads and links.

10/27/99 - New and improved :) Reorganized scripts page, added some new stuff, 14 scripts now included as well as several other necessary files. Also put in a reference autoexec.cs file with helpful instructions.

10/25/99 - Even more updates... Uploaded version 2.3 of Orion mod, added Tribes Improvement Team and When Worlds Collide to MOD list, 30 mods now listed! Also added Myn's Outrage, Nighthawk's Nightmare, and Rip Curl Arena to map section.

10/21/99 - TOTAL FILES=59 Added Striker, S.W.A.T., Counter Terrorist, and Insane mods to list. Also put "Tiny Avengers" and "Blizzard of Oz" in the maps section.

10/12/99 - New sections In a continued effort to bring you all the tribes shtuff I can, there is now a completed tactics section as well as Tribes Invaders. The latter is a great javascript game by Llyd ap Dicter, try it today!

10/9/99 - File updates: Get the latest versions of your favorite mods, the most recent patches, and more right here! Latest updates include the 1.9 patch, as well as new versions of the Warhammer 40k, Havoc, and NDG Renegades mods.

10/2/99 - Big changes! (sort of) After some consideration it has been decided that Crazy Goat Tribes will no longer be a "clan" site. I'll keep the name, because it is so cool, but any [cg] - specific content will be removed. The goal of this site is to provide all tribes players with everything they need in one place, period.

9/25/99 - Need help? Anyone who needs hosting for their TRIBES maps, skins, huds, etc. should let me know. I may be able to help you out by posting your stuff, send an today!
