Title: Clan Battle #2
Post by: 420 on September 11, 2004, 11:58:32 AM
Quick note: It is incorrect to say that Doriath won the first "war", they won the first "battle". Battles are what you fight to win a war.

OK, Doriath, you won so you get to determine the time/day of the 2nd battle (though it may be delayed until we figure out how to minimize the lag).

When you have decided the time/day, please post it here.

Rule Violations from the last battle

Do not start until I shout "GO".

Please wait in your teams base (don't cross the bridge) until the battle starts.

Don't launch catapults until the battle starts.

If you die and are not resurected you are out. When the server auto-respawns you and a referee hasn't dazed you, please tell a ref you are out or simply return to your clan's base and sit quietly. (no launching catapults if your out!)

euhm, when somebody is dead and get respawned and they arent getting dazed i dont think people will tell that to the refs... I think they just gonna keep on with the fighting. (i wont, but some other people maybe) <_<

More than one person came to a ref to say they were out, some of them simply stopped fighting and a few (you know who you are) continued to fight after they were out.

Smaller battles (ie less players) should be easier to manage.

Melisa, Throbble and I were the 3 referees.

Talon made a short appearance shortly before the end of the battle in the guise of the default DM char. (Dunge Onmaster)

and what the heck does "polemize" mean!??!?!

I'll be damned, you can use it as a verb:
polemize - engage in a controversy; "The two historians polemicized for years"
Synonyms: polemicise, polemicize, polemise

(From Websters....)

still doesn't make sense to me, sry :)

ok, next battle, I have an idea:

For the battle we get the server rebooted with a password on that only clan members know. Should take care of lag issues if we keep the teams reasonable.

no, 420 told me to add ideas to this or his other topic on the war. This I find to be a good idea because of the load of complaints about the lag.

 :ph34r: , don't ban me

server was using 254Kb/s of a 10Mb line.
Processor usage was at 53% idle.

Ang lag experienced cant have been due to the server.

Sounds like the bottle-neck was on the end users side.

Neither 420 nor I will be able to make the 18th. If it was the next day (Sunday) we could change our plans to make that time.

*sigh* Its been one week (still to long) to set a date and you have to give atleast 2days (i think) warning ........this war is getting drawn out way to long and were starting to loose interest get you act together and stop being a slack bunch of unorganised noobs......i aslo belive there should be some sort of penalty for doraith for not getting a set date on time.
Title: Clan Battle #2
Post by: Calia on September 18, 2004, 09:21:37 PM
Dorith did set a date but we lacked the refs for that time so  we tryed to set a New date  namly the one right after in this case  but........... we were never told if this would be agreeable by doriths leader and to my understanding they ahve gone thorugh ..... a leadership change so Could doriths new leader please ok sundays date or pick on within the next 4 days

and if not i bleave that the refs should pick the date for the next one to get this moving

420 and I can both be on for a good part of Sunday, so there is hope that this war will get underway. Please read the revised war book in your inventory to understand the rules. I'm going to go to GS now and see if I can't move this along.

Let's hope everyone can make it, including Melisa!
