[quote] If I have missed anything, well...its a lot to read guys If you find all of this difficult to read and keep up with imagine how difficult it is to have to write all this stuff. I have had to author 56 of the 165 posts in this thread and counting. And these are by no means short little single paragraph posts. This is 1/3 of the thread if you go by post count and although I have no intention of counting, I'm sure it's even more lopsided if you go by word

[quote] It kind of answers it. A random pick by the software would probably be best here as well, that way it isn't necesarrilly the top player playing the backup game. I agree but we haven't even begun to discuss the "pre-announced" non-submission and the assignment of another team member to do a backup game in the ALtMeta MVL thread at all. I'm not sure we even do want to bring it up there just because of confusion, however I think we pretty much have to brin

[quote]yes....its why I haven't chimed in for awhile; I was telling Neilo last night that at this point I don't even know what people are saying yes and no to anymore. And if I'm getting lost, then goodness help those that are not as involved. [/quote] You were asleep when I came on board, mind you it was like 3 in the morning. As for 2009, yeah possibly. I will not however discuss the last question here. Because as far as I can see, EVERYONE IS IN AGREEME
I brought the backup game up in the rule thread. I seen your reply over there Mumble, however I believe it needs to be discussed a little further. In the rule thread though, so as not to confuse these issues any further
First of all, try and remember if the AI is being "PAID" to take care of you. Because as Nullspace replied in reply #1, The Drath will manipulate others into attacking you. Also what Notger writes in reply #2 about getting others to attack the Altarians, use that all the time, and keeps hostile AI off your butt for a while.
[quote]Hey, kryo, I know everyone is kinda tied up with TA right now, but there is a fair amount of friction evident among the non-beta-players about the 1.8e issues, and older stuff like this thread. It seems like it would be real good to get 1.8f moved out to be the current standard on SDC. There are a lot of old hands that have played it for awhile now with little complaint; can it be blessed and posted? drrider [/quote] I second this. I don't have winzip o
What the &^%$#% am I doing wrong to get the banner to come on. Do I have to go somewhere or sacrifice virgins or monkeies or something. Guess I'll write a post to dear Abbey.
gonna try http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee294/thalanruler/TeamD1.png
Thank you. Point 2 has been cleared to hell and back Point 1 Agree Point 2 Agree Point 3 Agree
I did once suggest a 1 pnt penalty for late submission by a captain, however I think it would start to get a little complicated, and the more I think of it the more I believe random selection from the software is the way to go. It saves everyone, and as I kind of understand the captain can still make the last minute selection to avoid the software doing it. Please correct me if I am wrong.
It kind of answers it. A random pick by the software would probably be best here as well, that way it isn't necesarrilly the top player playing the backup game.
I would please like verification on nonsubmittal games or a noshow. Does another player play a backup game? The reason I ask this is because of what I read in the ALT MVL. Will go back and find which post. Went back. Now please correct me if I am wrong. I will just use an example. Team: Mumble,Motti,Neilo,FB,Jeff Player 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Mumble 50 000 56 000 38 000 Motti 48 000 57
I am almost in total agreement. I know that on Team D, the automated system would never get used.
AAARRRGGGHHHH..... I am totally hooked! If this was a novel, it would be a cover to cover read without sleep, shower or food, and you stopped
Regarding pnt 2. I don't believe back up games from other team members should be allowed period. Because yes you would get Mumble or Motti to do the back up game. I will also go with the random selection for a noshow MVL game. I doubt it will ever come to that I hope. However I still think a captain should be able to beat the random selection with a last hour game submittal from the player in question. Passwords for everybody or just 1 per team. Whichever is easisest f
[quote]But at what point does a captain make a selection. If it is before the end date, he is stepping on the toes of the player in question. If it is after the round has ended, then it is a clear advantage for that team. [/quote]If it is after the deadline, then it is/should be 1pnt instead of 2 pnts, but still leaves it in the hands of humans. A co-captain can also make the submission in case the captain is a no-show I might add that this also requires more team orientation, which is
So far so good.
1 Agree 2 Disagree 3 Agree For reasons stated in earlier replies.
