CBM Blitzes
OK
TENTATIVELY we will test CBM blitzes as a first test of a script-generated mod-using game on the blitz server.
http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/cbm_chk.cgi
CBcomplete_1.3 is required.
Im not going to bother explaining that very much right now. If you want more info then check with the IRC channel or use the regular Blitz games.
http://game.dom3minions.com/bin/blitz_chk.cgi
I think this will work now altho we might have to wait for the next patch and a couple of server fixes that are scheduled to be in it. Please let me know of any strangeness or quirks. Does it work or not?

Re: CBM Blitzes
Good, I will leave it up a few days.
If no one seems interested then I will try some other variation for awhile.

Re: CBM Blitzes
Interest and Motivation can be tricky to align. 
I thought most blitz games were organized on IRC? |

Re: CBM Blitzes
They're looking to start a blitz in the IRC room.

Re: CBM Blitzes
True. Also it seemed, most of the CBM games.
I have no problem dropping it for something else. It was abit of a peace offering since Ive never really shown the interest in CBM or IRC that some felt I should.
I tend to go the opposite direction. 
Some of the variants Im cosidering would be:
Chaos_ (i.e. my "Poke in the Eye" map)
SemiRand_ (running Ballbarians SemiRand program against each map)
vsAI_ (blitzs with 2 or 3 AIs randomly added so that people new to MP can start out allying with another human player against allied AIs)
vs_ (modded to allow nations to play themselves such as EA_Ulm vs EA_Ulm)

Re: CBM Blitzes
Or maybe shift back to doing daily maps like
http://www.dom3minions.com/~dominion...andomMaps.html
I need to increase the sizes to include the new limits.
And include more generators like Harbringers for wraparounds, and Dom3, GIMP, maybe HoMM.
Also might include daily generating of variants like Tower, Pipeline, NoIndepents, Chaos, and SemiRand.

Re: CBM Blitzes
I will leave it up for abit longer.
Got distracted looking into SemiRand again.
Do you (or anyone else) have a preference on what to try next?
I really have to earn this new server I got thanks to the people here.
