Clan Battle #2
« 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

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

 :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.

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.

I think lag is almost always caused by:
  • Low end computers
  • People that cant accept loss
  • n00bs spaming AoE

    I myself only ever lag when im on this cursed 56k, Never lagged on my DSL.
