Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Addressing a few topics here:

Extensions and time delays can be painful when staling nations are present. Setting nations AI when there is a chance they might attack former teamates can be an...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Wow, Squirrel is in the know. What depth and detail. I knew right away when he joined us in NvV, this was a noob that was extraordinary. Gandalf, what have you, or anyone else to say in defence of...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Thank you rdonj for your defense and Squirrel for your commentary.

Squirrel, what I meant really meant was that in most strategy games, the developers/designers sort of "balance" the game by...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

rdonj, have no fear, Septimius is here! Yes, I'm about to add the original 24 hours asked for to the timer. If more time is needed, I'm sure you or DrP will let me know.

Edit: That is, if it is...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Chris, the problem I have with a point system is that it is subjective. Who decides how many points a given nation is worth?

I still cling (perhaps niavely) to the assumption that the developers...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Rdonj makes some very strong arguments indeed (thanks for the commentary Rdonj, btw), I just did a quick superficial calculating of scores and presented it, that is all. The two teams are very, very,...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

At this point I believe the game to be winding down and a victor will emerge shortly if they've not already. I am inclined to just say lets keep going on and finish this thing (server issues aside)....

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Chris is correct in the absolute sense. The hosting interval does not change. Everyone keep in mind that current hosting interval is 56 hours and all hosting intervals are measured from server's time...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Hurray for Gandalf! I now have direct server control via e-mail and can implement delays and force host myself. So no need to bug him. Let us give him thanks in the above post. He is working on other...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

You know, I've always wondered how some players can join and play in 3, 4, 5 or 6 games at once or even more. Frankly for me a personal limit of two is about all I can handle, especially if one of...

Re: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI, Running.

Thanks Squirrel for doing both a forum post and a PM. I am more likely to see the PM since it goes to my e-mail but the forum post is very important as well. Request received and conveyed to Gandalf.
