Welcome to Newcomers, Old Timers and Everyone In Between!

Sounds like Sid there Garry.

I thought these bits of your post were the giveaways:

I've got a number of queries about KO2 game play and some of its quirks which I'd like to post in future.

and

I've got a couple of ideas and suggestions myself

Maybe that you only said a couple of ideas threw you off the scent? A couple indeed.

And, yep, you were spot on with Sid too!

Feel free to post more intro quotes if anyone comes across any (though they're not that easy to find!)

ok, first post here so let me introduce myself a little

my name is ********, born in '66, im in Belgium, talking in french, with few of english, dutch and italian

of course, im a KO2 boy ! just discovered this forum thrue the KO2 WC 2005 site find by a friend of mine, also great fan of this game...

will surelly tell more later about me, but at the moment, i just have a question >

i found some old diskettes, with, i think, replays of my best goals > extension are in *.tsr > are these replays from KO2 ?

if yes, is there a way i can see them again on my PC ?

i already noticed that there is an AMIGA emulator available, i suppose this is the key, but may be there's a simple solution ... !?

tell me more please

Really guessing here - is it Lou ?

[Calimero]

No, it's someone who is posting mostly in the KO2 section, with also some videoclips of goals.

[gdh82]

From a quick look in the KO1/2 section, this must be Mic ?

[Calimero]

Yep, you got it right, but not without looking

Hello, I'm registered since July 1st but it is my first post. During 6 months, I tried to launch KO2 online on my computer but with a lack of tehcnic, it always failed. But, in 2008, I did it. Actually...

So, about me... I'm french, 28 years old in less than a week, and addicted to Kick Off 2 since I was 10 years old. I played it a lot and a lot on my brave Atari 520 STe. When I was a kid, I dreamt about a KO World Cup... and what did I found in last July on Google : that you did it ! And that it was possible to play online ! So nice.

I hope I can play some games with you soon. But first, I have to run my paddle on KO2... It is not recognized (even if in menus it appears... still this lack of technic).

Thank you.

You'll be very much at home around here then!

Welcome to the forums, Setzer! In the Kick Off 1/2 forum there's 'Improve Your KO2 Skills' thread and it contains loads of useful links including setting up winuae etc

Seeya around...

Cheers

Ok, who's is this first post then?

I've just signed up and I'm totally confused by these forums, they are NOT very newbie-friendly.

Where are the geographic-specific forums so people can go straight to a UK/German/Italian section and look for active posters, local tournaments, people who live nearby?

Where is the "Newbies" section so newbies can introduce themselves, ask idiot questions without being flamed?

Where is the "Useful Info" section explaining terms like FAKO and LOKO and MOLOKO or whatever else which seem to crop up in loads of thread titles?

It's taken me about an hour to work out that there is some sort of small gathering (FAKO-LOKO whatever that means) in London in September, and a World Championship at the end of October, but I've no idea about who to contact and how if I wanted to go, or what it would involve, or what it will cost.

Anyway sorry to be critical with my first post but you did ask..!

I actually recognise this prickly first post ... it's noodles - who else would make a complaint when arriving at a new place! He keeps coming back so I think he's warmed to the place since ...
