DeadlyMedley - running

Ubercat · #1 July 30th, 2008, 09:31 PM

Sounds good to me. I saw a fixed start map when I started the game, but I don't know where to DL it. I'm going to look around and see what I can figure out.

.....edit: We can't DL the map. Apparently we just need the regular map file we already have. The server randomly assigns us to the hand picked, balanced start positions.

I didn't realize that I could delete the original game, so I started a new one. Send your pretenders to DeadlyMedley2, instead.

I probably could have done this restart better and kept the same name. Oh well. Learning experience and all that.

Yeah, there's even a bonus new admin option which allows you to take a newly started game and take it back to the "Waiting for pretenders" stage, keeping all the pretenders, called "Restart game" I think. As you say though, all a learning experience, I think people had gotten used to the old set of options. Hmm, I really should update the FAQ soon, as it's horribly out of date.

Also, you're right about the map, you don't need to download it.

Ok, where did Arcosephale come from? Did someone switch factions? Not a problem but I really should be kept up to date on this stuff.

heh

did you manage to get all 12? it has been a while since i've played a game, and haven't ever done EA MP, and would be happy to send in some simple helheim pretender if you're missing someone

You can probably get in. I'll keep you posted. Don't disappear for a couple three days, though, or we may start without you. There have already been far too many delays in this game.

yah... i'm around. got the next few months off hopefully

easy for me to upload a helheim pretender on a moment's notice... maybe i'll look at some of the other options too.

If you have an opening... i'm sure there'll be another game starting sometime if you don't

Ok resent Pretender.

Arch,
Be sure your archived pretender was not created with CBM active. That can be quite embarrassing.

If the person playing Arco doesn't speak up, I'm going to set them to AI as soon as the game starts. If you're going to change factions let me know about it. How else can I see how many players we have?
