Does anyone know of a way to bypass the "Mythic Entertainment" splash screen when you start the game? I.e. so that as soon as the client has checked for updates you go straight to the login panel?

No
The splash screens are generally there for the viewer to look at whilst the game is loading.

Thanks for the info.
I had noticed that if you press [ESC] the splash screen went away instantly... well sometimes. I wasn't aware you could get rid of it by clicking on it.

There used to be a way to bypass the entire login sequence. It was something like entering:

camelot.exe <login name> <char name> <server> <password>

at a command prompt

They stopped that as it allowed people to start the game with "corrupted" files.
