Re: MP Victorious Nations/Hall of Honor II [Update 27/04/2010
Possibly the absolute best ladder would be the same mirrored map used for 2-player king-of-the-hill dueling games with settings to remove as many randoms as possible, probably using the balance mod. And possibly the worst would be team games on really large maps where the winner simply has the most patience with micromanagment, possibly using some of the.. well.. opposite of balance mods.
There are varied opinions as far as what constitutes a "proper Dom3 game" or what it was "meant to be" as far as game type, winning conditions, map size, number of players, mods, etc.
So is this a ladder thread? Or a thread for all dom3 games? Does winning any dom3 game of any settings count as winning a Dom3 game? Or is it going to be only certain types? vanilla or mod? king of the hill or vp? single, tie, or team? large-map (MM) games and single age excluded? direct or pbem? only on official servers (often a requirement in ladders).
And after all these years, would a tight definition show us anything new?

Well, the HoF is certainly not a ladder. It is a continuation of Tyrant's HoF according to the guidelines that he set in place. Not ideal, but rather a compromise between different extremes.
Basically, nations and players that won games get credit for that. As I see it, this HoF doesn't presume to reflect different aspects of player's proficiency.

Thank you for that. Personally I think thats what I would like to see it be.
But I will say that if anyone DOES want to do a ladder of some sort, I am willing to provide hosting and server space to such a project.

I have an idea, why don't you un-retire and grab some more wins
Oh and I'll update the DB with your lost, now found win.

Mists of Time went a bloody 10 months before TwoBits was unanimously declared victor by the remaining players. I didn't realize no one ever left an entry for that game here.

Quitti won Warcry, btw. Not sure why he did not post here.

The game Rattllehead has ended. Dark Kitty has been declared winner by the last 3 players, with no discussion, at turn 110. It was a newbie game. There was no mod, map Urraparrand.
