I've noticed over the years that there are several mapmakers (Spazzy Mcgee, to name one) who have made maps that heavily focus on triangles and similar shapes and angles. I am considering making a triangular-based map and wondered if you had any tips or techniques you used.

Thanks.

I enjoyed the soccer league, I may rejoin.

That sounds like a good idea to me.

Well, dexter, that's up to you, but I think it may be a good idea after all. Mr. Rhapsody, stick with it. Reasoning being: In response to: "The Playoffs is just and event at a certain time to decide to best team." ..What? You can determine who the best team is (point-wise) by just going here: http:/...

It's a good idea. Isn't this pretty much like the "seasons" in the Ducati League?

The only thing I'm hesitant about is this "playoffs" deal making it too competive out there. It's already far more competitive than it's ever been, and I fear it would make players hostile.

You're actually still in it :-P I restarted it remember? Hop on sometime and we'll play.

There still is lol...

Wow, impressive. I likies.

And sometimes people will give you permissions anyway. :-P But it's nice of you to offer your map...

I'm pretty sure it was cosmos... but it might have been semtex? For some reason these names are sticking out.

Alot of these maps are up every now and again. Like Spazzy said, they simply don't get played, which is sad for those people around when those good ol' maps were popular. Blame ducatiwannabe and his MissleWar Maps, they've taken and brainwashed the BZFlag community. :) *creeps away silently* :shock:

Yeah, just so you know, whenever I try to work on a map in BZEdit 1.6.5, I get it all ready except for the textures and physics and so on and so forth (basically, 2.x features that can not be opened in BZEdit). IIRC, it will simply remove the coding/ignore it if you try to open it in BZEdit? Or mayb...

Whooops... Now I feel silly. Er. Bloogablooga. Go post at brad's or private message me. :-P

Please feel free to private message me or post your match results here. I will get them entered when the website comes back up. I need both team names, server, the score (state which team had which score), and the time in GMT. You can find a GMT converter here . It will convert your timezone time to...

AH, but he does... pity you don't as well!

Just go to the league website, log in, click "Contact", and send me (or another administrator listed) a bzmail asking to be added to the list.

You are correct, there are only 30 minute matches allowed. You can never do a fifteen/twenty/any other minute match and count it as official.

Well, this gives all of us a chance to pay attention to how we're treating other players. It can literally drive some really cool people off with nonsense, poor sportsmanship, and rudeness.

Getting a tad off topic here.

Nooooo! *sobs* You must come back. There is still hope!

Been lotsa fun...hope to see you again...

I don't think silencing players with concerns is a very good idea. Most times people just are using "?" or "huh?" or whatever else in disbelief. Oftentimes, it is not in suspicion. Players just need to understand that lag is an issue (which many do, because if it's not "?" it's "lag" :P) and that th...

Sounds great. I've been needing to get back into the ducati league and this has my interest.
10vs10 is fine with me, any map. Mwahaha. >:-E

Yay for automatic reporting. But manual is okay too! :X

And then there's the fact that a lot of us just don't have the time to do hour after hour on BZ. The thought is nice, though.

You've got a lot of tips... now here's a little one... touchpad is hard! Get a normal mouse. That's just my $0.02.
