Afterall it only takes 36 seconds to cap without pressure Care to show me? Or did you mean: If I grab the flag with no other players on the map, I need only 36 sec to cap? In that case --> :turtle: I meant the second case, no players. Though I believe a noob like me can even cap in under 5 min. So ...

I am pretty sure this helping others as well. And it really is no change. You still have a choice of 20 or 30 minuete matches.

I am agreeing with rustlerspeed. It is quite complicated to set this up. Though, overall, I would prefer a tournament.

Well, I remember the day when GU released 20 min. Matches. It was such a happy day for me. Though, My schedule has been alot tighter. I can only play perhaps only 20 min. Consitently. Meaning each 20min, I cant play. So I want more options. I want 15min, 20min, 30min, 45min, and even 60min. I know t...

If you mean you'll PM me, please don't.

Ok, I was actually going to, but thanks for the heads-up.

But have you been a leader in action, or a leader in title only? Great question. Thought it is quite hard to explain due to the fact I can't judge myself? But here is what I did: Encourage to do offi, pratice daily in fms and 1v1, tell my mates to be active and take all their hard work on the battl...

Agreed. They need to be inspired by you. Maybe you are not ready to have your own team.

The question is when though? And how? I had been leader of Reptiles for 11 months.

Congrats FB! hopefully, some day Reptiles can reach this.

You are confusing fun with winning. It is also fun to improve. It seems like you are saying the only way you can win is to cheat or change the game, therefore change the game or you will cheat. Allowing for matches that are asymmetrical, with the less-skilled team having more players on the field i...

To add to those stats: look at how many matches some of the teams have played. FF >6000. TFG >2500, EIE almost 4000. FF has been at the bottom of the team roster and at the top of the roster (twice). It's an ebb and flow. Yes, it can be discouraging to be losing all the while but being near the bot...

Snake, my guess is that you think the other teams have an "unfair advantage" (they are better than you). So now you want an unfair advantage to cancel theirs and make it even. But look at it this way. Do the other teams have an "unfair advantage"? If so, where did they get it. D...

blast wrote:You just want an unfair advantage so you can win. Thus why I said it's effectively cheating. If the thought of losing matches bothers you, then I'll say it again: competitive play may not be for you.

. We as a team just want to have fun. We don't wanna cheat.

blast wrote:If you'd have to effectively cheat to win, is that really fun?

It Is not cheating. It is like an even match. 2 pros vs 2 newbies with a small advantage. It helps give the better team a challenge and fun. It also helps the losing team and giving them fun as well.

NTH, I had learned that winning is not how you suceed in the league, but improving does. The thing about Reptiles is that, we want to actually have fun using a small advantage. Stats: 80% of my mates over thr past year left Reptiles due to the fact we are losing. They would like to have fun on a te...

No if I counted that it would be 95% leaving. I only kick when I know for sure they do not play bzflag anymore. They were inactive for close to 7 months. That is why.

We need to advertise bzflag on the net. Not worth doing. Really, do some reading before posting ideas that others have posted before. Maybe some popular websites such as facebook? Or Youtube? People already do that to some extent. If the developers somehow recieve enough money to advertise, bz will...

Why not use a system of programming called Lua? It is alot more eaiser.

Somehow, all of a sudden, during while I was halfway of making my 1st map that took a couple of hours, everything just vanish! I just clicked on a pyra and everything is gone! I then restarted my computer and it went back to normal, then I click on one more thing and then everything vanished once ag...

Sitting on a box with gm requires no skill. And you say energetic??? How can you be nimble and quick enough to dodge laser? Laser is infinte range and speed, so it would be extremely unfair. And as for flags like high speed. That is as well a major advantage. Most 1v1 is 2 or 3 shots, you can eaisly...

I admit that the FFA planet mofo was one of the best servers i had play. Though it has change, recently i invited my friends to go play at ffa mofo, it was horrible! It was still great but the point system really agigtated us. So please mofo admins, please we old players wanna have a good ffa server...

Is there a chance for him to be unban though?

We need to advertise bzflag on the net. Maybe some popular websites such as facebook? Or Youtube? If the developers somehow recieve enough money to advertise, bz will be way popular. Maybe a donate site? Cuz i will defintly donate for my favorite game. And also NEVER make bzflag not free. Only when ...

I miss dazz or latin heat or galaxyblast24 or Mr.Awesome or well you get it. i wish he is unban soon..

... All I have to say is, all of you guys reach just in your saying. "Comepetitive play" , "Practice" , "Learn from learing others" Yes, all true, and I do agree that I sound like as if a whiny kid saying "That's not fair" BUT I am very competetive, I prefer w...
