Java
You can access this chat two ways. One is through Java by clicking
this link.
You will be taken to a screen that asks you to fill in some details. These should mostly be done for you, but you may want to check these are right:
Nickname: Whatever you want to call yourself
Channel: #civ3dem
Real Name: Whatever you want
Server name: apolyton.net
Server port 6667
Then click on "Connect now" and you should go right to the room.
mIRC
The other way is via mIRC, which is of course what we have been using until now. Thisis a little more work at the beginning:
1. Open mIRC
2. Go to File>Options.
3. In the "Connect" category, click on "Add" then fill in
Description: Apolyton
IRC Server Apolyton.net
Port: 6667
ignore the rest of it.
4. Click "Add".
5. Go to the "IRC Network" option and choose "All" (right at the top of the list).
6. In the list of servers immediately below this, you can choose Apolyton (right at the bottom, probably).
7. Click "Connect to IRC server" and join #civ3dem in the usual way.
