Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

Yes, it might be the "best off topic" we had lately, but it is still off topic. That is how forums are organized, otherwise we would have a blog instead :P

Re: ?, thru, what? wtf? etc.

Let me remind you something that should stop the discussion about the config file right away: the config file of any software, whether bzflag or OpenOffice, contains adjustable parameters for the user to choose, in many occasions many of those parameters have not made their way into the "main m...

I am afraid I have to share snick's view on this matter. I would like it to be different but the situation is as snick describes it.

Even if other options are 3D-like, enhanced mod appears to me as clearly the best option for 3D information. At least it is the radar mod I find most transparent regarding the information presented.

Re: Radar type help

I would say enhanced, always enhanced. It allows you to see the different levels of the map, it gives 3D information instead of other radar options that are 2D only.

Re: California GU League Official Server

Danji, of course you are free to set up a public server, call it gu style or whatever you wish. But you cannot call it a "official gu league server". At least, we would kindly ask you not to do so yet. All our "official" servers are official for a reason: They need approval. We h...

Some are really good ideas though. Admins vs. everyone else sounded appealing to me, as did OS's.

Re: GU Style:Annual Veterans vs. Rookies

@dexter: I was simply proposing a clear cut way to divide the league into rookies and vets, since there seemed to be some confusion on how to do this on the previous posts. The players you are mentioned are re-joiners, and as such it is not difficult to place them as vets according to my definition....

Re: Official league match server..

ok i understand.. thanks for explaining :) :) Kierra explained very well and clear. The basic problem with setting an official server is that league players will visit there being certain that things are under control, things like IPs, but also things like private conversations. Keep in mind that e...

Re: GU Style:Annual Veterans vs. Rookies

If you want to do GU League vets vs rookies I propose to use the GU League membership date to determine who is a vet and who is a rookie. Say, <2 years rookie, >2 years vet since the league is 4+ years old. You can sort the list of players in order "date joined" and sort the teams out in a...

most americans can play on it withabout 250ms of lag so i dont see the problem. and dex is right. us aussies do have a right to a lag free server. Stating that 250ms lag is "free lag" sounds really odd :D The problem has a difficult solution unless you can stretch the distance between AU ...

Re: Lagstats in replays

I think the point here is not that we are looking for instantaneous data of lagstats at everypoint during the game. I think we'd like to see a lag snapshot at various points in the game as an attempt to get a more complete picture while watching the events in a replay. If we are able to see in a fe...

Re: Big annoyance

Should be some kind of reasonable limit to the number of new team creates by one individual. That will cut down. As is -- it's really easy to manipulate the scoring system by colluding with other teams, creating a team, playing, deleteting the team, and then joining the team that you let beat you. ...

Re: Big annoyance

Maybe that fits in here: Yesterday I (Team EiE) matched against Team basic. We won and they were up for a rematch. Therefore we agreed and matched them again. However they beat us in a fair way. What we didn't knew was, that they dismissed their team in between our two matches and created a new one...

Re: Add server when reporting

That is a great idea. I had one too: We add the players who played, so we could make a better player activity. But i think that would be to much work. certainly including the players on the reporting system is not feasible at the moment. Often reports are incomplete, lack of time, or date, or ..., ...

I haven't seen this is a "big" problem ... yet. But the limits you want to impose would be difficult to implement, because those players determined to do it will always find ways to do it. It is common sense that you dont make a new team every day, but, let's face it, some people have an a...
