500 turns is not 1000 turns as advertised.

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
??? Did I say 1000 ??? I'm sorry if I did that. It was a suggestion that I added but it seems to be an error that I wrote that.

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
Why did you take the fotons off the ships?
You can disable them under another setting but how are you going to invade the planets now.
Edit is Trashed.

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
Nice job on game A , with the setting you made of this game you will be on an empty game.
Your setting are going to keep that server empty. You may have to comply to your players , those who will allow a sysop to play on their own server that is.
I'm glad I have learned to investigate the settings before joining into it. This one edit was a good choice not to join , or I'de have been a #SD# cby'r.
Good luck with your next attempt at a game. You might want to jump onto other servers and play a bit before your next Rebangs.
Just my 2¢

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
Yap you seem to want to screw with settings to FORCE player to play a certain way. This is NOT going to happen. Fix the game so it is playable and let the players enjoy it. If not don't bother to post rebangs and enjoy your server in private.

I think he should post his rebangs and mention in the post if he's playing. (some ppl dont like that) V'ger come up with some new ideas for one of the edits in ice9 i think he should look at, if its still there. Factory ships etc... Very playable edit too.

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
Vid Kid : You gave me a lot of advices. I took most of them. I appreciate it. It's bad that you have the same vision of Parrothead of the tw2002 chess play... But, as i said before, you have all the right to prefer what you want. Maybe some days, I will understand all the strategy and have a good corp to use my computer 24h/24h on a game that I do not control anymore, cause all my script do the dirty work. I appreciate scripts, but it is not a competition of tw2002, it's a competition of who have the better script to kick the butt of other players.
Parrothead : You seems to have a problem. Stop harrassing me with this kind of comment. I think I respect in totality what you said in the past. And now, as I thought you were reacted, you and your kind of players, I thought to open one Game B with no Code of conduct, no truce, a real 1000 turns, no time limit... And no sysop playing to this game, cause anyway, i don't want to play in this kind of game... Maybe I'm a poor player, but I will never be able to play like you are playing, because, i don't have a corp of one blue and two red that are using those kind of scripts that I don't understand for the moment and don't have the interest to try to understand it in my second language... without telling you that all acronyms that you are using are unknown from me.
Njoy : I understand about sysop playing on his server. Vid Kid told me too about that in the past. I prefer enjoying my proper game and know almost what is going on it. And now, I know that some players don't like the way I change it. Maybe I will try a other server, but I dislike a couple of servers that I'm trying to push foward one or two hours by day and skiping a day because of work and return with nothing, no planets and my ship destroyed each time I don't play. Or when I'm trying to get to the Stardock and going throught full of fighters and cannot recover myself... And almost servers that I tried are running that way... the way that players like Parrothead love to play.
So, could we have a volonteer on website that could put a survey to know what kind of games they like and I will know if I'm the only tw2002 fan to like the way I built recently my game. Or maybe Classictw.com could do that ? I would like to know the result of that survey.

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
Yop_Solo there are different types of players that are out there that may prefer the type of system you have setup. Ice9 has some very popular building games that I would not even begin to play, but a lot of people like them. The same situation exists with truce games and turns game play - some like them some don't. You have put a lot of work into what you are trying to do and you should stay with it.
Vid and Parrot are very experienced players and Vid is also an excellent Op, but they also have preferred game settings just like everyone else (myself included). Listen to the various players and then make the decision yourself on how you want your server to run. I would tell you an unlimited, no truce, no alien, solo corp with quick build cits can be a great edit, but others will tell you it is terrible. (Unlimited - no turn management required, no truce - everyone dies quickly, solo corp - no corpie to talk to/save me, quick cits allow for stalemates). Yeah, everyone has their own thoughts.
Although I have not seen or played your edit, it seems you are looking for a more like a relaxed role playing type of game. This will appeal to some, but hyper-killer type players may come in and kill everyone because that is the way they play - all out attack, search and destroy.
If you have a good idea, players will try it. If it isn't as good of an idea as you thought (player don't play), you have to change. Only way to find out is to try. Most players will tell you what they think if you ask, and some of us will tell you what we think even if you don't want to hear it.

Re: SOME NEWS OF TWGSDODERBBS.ATH.CX
Some basic understanding of HOW things work in game will help.
You Don't Strip the photons off the ships. You set Photon Duration to Zero. This disables photons.
Any player can see the "V" screen and see for himself.
If you had done that I would have CBY'd right away instead of trying to play a screwed up game.
