?go autosb

[Divine Rides]

so we're trying to get speedball/strikeball going again, but the arena is always empty... get some practice in, we want to play.. we're on "late night" (we're PST) get with it

[Shadowmere]

First of all, if autosb would start going on, I think we need to motivate players with the league, which was last ran by Dotsy and Holybird (or was it Dyers eve?) (as once I think), however there is noone to continue Dotsys support on strikeball.

I wish the league was back, and if there is someone to do it, and run it, I bet strikeball would live again.

It'll be something different, and I'm usually home from work late, so I'll be there. Haha, I can bring the bot.

[moltenrock]

Jee, Ive only posted a million of these threads. It was DOTSY and Holybird. If we had a permanant bot in autosb...might get some more people...and you might wanna put the right settings in the map. <_<

[Richard Creager]

Whats so different about this map? Or are you referring to speedball settings because the strikeball settings is the result of the closest replication attempt (with maybe some changes made for play) that the original speedball playing community could put together.
Though autosb may have different settings, aside from scorelimit I can't see a difference betwiin it and go strikeball if thats what you mean.

omgomogmgomgomg speeedballll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! when you kept spamming those links i assumed it was some basing map and didn't check it out.
I'll fucking own you guys! (probably not since I haven't played in 4+ years, but I'd like to think I'm still good!)

[Volcs]

Ok, the arena name? wtf? who chose that?

1- It should be ?go speedball

2- why the rocks?

3- bring back the old map

4- Freq 0 is wbs, freq 2 is javs. Make it that way

5- remove the brick from in front of wormhole... (see #3)

6- host it once in a while so the newbs get to know how to play


Those six things should get speedball popular again.

[Fluffz]

fix the map in the first place, both in autosb and strikeball

autosb had working wormholes and ships 1-8

[Volcs]

Yeah, i forgot, freq 0 was wb, freq 1 was javs

and there are supposed to be wormholes, there isn't supposed to be a brick stopping us from using them though.


Suggestions revised!

[Richard Creager]

I believe they can't call it speedball because the original speedball guy hates trench wars, or something to that similar extent. I believe this is also the same reason why they don't use the same map and a fresh one was made along with the settings.

Sorry misread

Mr Mike was the creater of speedball (i think, could be magoo or someone, it was def some No Surrender old school guy) and he won't let anybody have fun with something he invented, even though he doesn't play anymore, because he's got a penis for a nose and he's selfconcsious. Anyways, thats why wadi shades child and other made the go strikeball, same sb initials, basically same settings, basically same map. We had oldschool Speedball league, and we ran one season of strikeball, but it has always died to do lack of interest.

[Galleleo]

I made like 2 maps for strikeball back when divine and wadi wanted to blow new life into it, on the wr forums..

[Spiderman]

I want SB League!

[triceratops]

strikeball/speedball whatever you want to call it, its fun!
