?go Base captains!

[Fair]

Im sorry but this is ballshit stop giving caps to people who dont listen or incompetant to actually control a game.

There should be a file like ignore.txt that Mods can put players on for blacklisting to never be a captain.

Suede goes to number one spot along with thix.

Ok now i've calmed down a lil *edit*

Caps should at least check to see if there team is not afk ffs comon sense prevails there. but the assigning of caps ffs give it to people who are playing and not afk. People kill ?go base for this and many more reasons and it shouldnt be happening.

Maybe thats why base dies so fricking much cos of damn nubs sort it out!!
Im talking to the cap assigners and the people who get cap!

If that person is incapable to cap at the start he shouldnt have asked or been given it.
And for the people who cant sort a game out while its going on DONT BE CAP AGAIN.

[3d.]

u should need atleast 50hours usage to be cap. and staff that start base, use ur heads

[Rab]

Thix + Suede:

[Fair]

heh 50hours isnt enuff even if they had a 1000 some people are beyond learning to cap.

Rab this is cool but im telling you it takes comon sense which they simply havent got dude.

[Golden Sun 1]

[Herik]

[Spikester]

Suede is a good cap..

[RoDNeY]

they should change ?go base2 to make that arena inorder to play u need 1000 hours of usage, Jav and WB has one, why cant basing? and it would filter out a good portion of the "New players"

[Pressure]

it's already hard enough for beginners to get picked as it is, this isnt the answer.

[Ephemeral]

I never accept Cap in ?go base.
I don't because I don't understand how I am supposed to do it. And it hasn't nothing to do with !add, or my ability to make a decision, or my ability to chose the best players out of any given group.

Can someone point me to some instructions that describe what the intent of ?go Base is and how captains are suppose to pick? Questions I have are:

- Do you pick with the intent of winning THAT game at any cost?
- Do you pick with the intent of encouraging newer players to come into the game?
- Is it ok to pick with the intent of just making sure that you play yourself?
- Is it ok to be captain and play at same time?
- Do you try to 'reward' those people who don't spam during the lineup period by choosing them?
- Do you play certain ships to make the game more 'fun' or do you play ships that you think have best chance to win?

My opinion, and the bottom line for me, is that without a clearly defined objective of the arena we have many people playing for many different reasons. Some play for fun, some play only to win, some might even play to encourage growth in the game in general. People like Fair have a valid point, how can anyone expect a good competitive game if we have two captains who are picking with different objectives? If captain of Team1 picks with the intent of winning at any cost, and the captain of Team2 picks a fairly good team but allows at least one newer player the opportunity to play, chances are that the game will not be competitive, captain of Team2 will get flamed, and no one has a good time.
Putting people with different reasons for playing all together in the same arena, and just sitting back, is a sure way to cause the problems that we see.
The answer seems clear to me, someone in power define what the ?go base objective is. If it is deemed to be a good thing for TW, perhaps make 2 or 3 different ?go Base arenas with different objectives. I don’t think it should be about usage hours, it should be about matching up the reasons people play that arena.

Not Enough players for 2 or 3 new base arenas, it's a struggle to get even 2 going when there are +250 players in TW.

"The answer seems clear to me, someone in power define what the ?go base objective is" was my solution.
