long pointless rambling packed with useless unoriginal ideas

[asdfasdf]

do you want to prevent continuum-tw from dying? get a plan. instead of dealing with .?help calls or some shit, try getting on the phone and getting some capital investment for your website, your bot programmer, wine taster, w/e. you can't leave the thinking up the idiots who have 1000 posts and a loud mouth thats for sure. TW's add campaign is non-existent in effect. theres no doubt now about falling population numbers in pubs and hosted events. its time to tweak the way things work in go base, and perhaps twd and twl. it takes too long to incorporate the casual web surfer into twd. as a business, you want to provide every last amazon-ebay drooling idiot who stumbles into a pub extremely clear instructions about how to become more involved. The number of people using the internet is going up everyday, and not everyone has the system for a lot of the modern games being released, so theres no reason why TW can’t at least maintain traffic. more detailed pub map text would probably help. i think the go base zone ads are great, but id like to see some different game types, like some method to just pick the terrs and sharks and have the rest automaticly, randomly added. this wouldn't be the rule of thumb, just something to mix it sometimes. perhaps a voting system for go base like in elim. Perhaps some twd-oriented hosted events to create maybe 2 automatic twl-bid “public squads” of some sort where all are welcome, but a ladder system determines who starts on game day. if you look at squad like virus from a few years back, they were really good at gathering the masses. they also put out alot of annoying spam but they had the right idea; just get every person you can. This creates a method for talented players to participate in twl who are not on an elite squad. in general id like to see maxium participation in twl, which means more squads and longer playoffs, which is fine assuming the the population problem isnt that bad yet, and you have the appropriate seeding and playoff-tree. how can you grow if people are not encouraged to participate in squad dueling. twl is for members of exclusive, guild-cult clubs where power rest in the hands of a few select captains. When it comes to choosing the select few to play, a players skill or experience often comes 2nd to simply what his nickname or style is. most people never have the opportunity to participate. some people dont even care. thats like an NFL team not wanting to get to the super bowl. The way it is now, most veteran players that are squadless feel compelled to remain that way. Why should they join a non-twl squad? the website needs work, the top players and squads listing on the right side seems meaningless, it should be automated if it isn’t already, like twd stats. TW gallery is never updated. The style, pallets, and layouts of trenchwars.org, twl, and twd should flow together a little better. you have done a great job with twd, although id like to see players stats kept even after they leave a squad. Im not a programmer, but it seems like you could steal some ideas from facebook, myspace (your page looks good btw), or wikipedia and apply them towards real time stats or maybe a news feed of sorts to encourage participation. timed games need stats recorded somewhere and a hall of fame of sorts. Id also like to see more flexibility about lagouts or ship changes when giving out mvps/team leaders, maybe have a 2-3 ship change/lagout limit. but stats like kills and deaths should be incorporated into the way team leader and mvps are determined; why not a stats sheet like in go base, at least via website. There should be some kind of daily or monthly achievements notebook, hopefully automated as well. On one hand its great to just be able to log and start blasting away and dieing without worrying about unwanted permanent stats, but timed pub games of best-of- 5’s offer some good stories to tell if you gave it a chance. now i understand time and money is something that we dont always have, but there are easy inexpensive ways to improve tw and attract more followers again. i know TW is not a full time thing for most people, but if your not making enough money to invest in the proper programers or what-not, then you probably need a better market strategy. I don’t know what the legal situation is as far as distribution or profiting but I bet there are bounds of ways to make money off of continuum other than selling the actual software. As far as marketing goes, that’s easy, you just need a little time, money, and energy. It helps to be creative because it saves you money, but you should be prepared to hire professional help. hell, I could hit up DC, Baltimore, and New York over a weekend with posters and handouts, then watch zone population double over night, create an entirely new following. who am i? just someone whose played since pre-release yet im an outsider.

and hosted events.

Fuck you buddy.

Sentence structure.

[Scoop]

i sent fliers around my school but i got beat up.

[D1st0rt]

I'm pretty sure the standing agreement with BDE is they will leave us alone as long as we don't make any money off of the game

[Hakaku]

http://www.blogger.com + paragraphs = wonders

[Sumpson]

can't read that

[Aquatiq]

who am i? just someone whose played since pre-release yet im an outsider.

Whose fault is that?

[Vykromond]

Why should I read this? It doesn't even mention me.

[Noah]

lol vyk!

I think I agree with this guy, but I couldn't read the whole thing.

Edit it up in paragraphs please.

Like this is one.

Whoa, man, this is another one!
You can also have several lines per paragraph.


Doing it like this is a really bad way because it makes it all very hard to read and it will be easy to lose the clue of what you are saying with very long sentences and stuff like that. I really think it's hard to come up with more shit to type up to here so I gotta say that I'm kinda impressed how you maniged to write that much so far, some of what you wrote was kinda good, but who cares, nobody is reading this sentence because their eyes has already fallen out of their sockets and is lying on the floor still bleeding. Speaking of a floor, mine needs to be cleaned up but I'm too laze. Whos, there I missed a comma but that doesn't matter, I juste write very long paragraphs and that's all that's to it. Vykromond like men, but I doubt anyone will read that. The end sentence might get read since they usually hope for some sort of conclusion, but with shitty typing in here as well it won't get read either. I'm getting kinda hypnotized by hitting the buttons on my keyboard, it sounds like "klick klick klick" just it's getting spammed into my ears, I think my ears are about to fall off but my fingers is still feeling good. If anyone read my entire post say "I read Noahs entire post". I don't think you'll see many, but this was pretty much useless crap.

[asdfasdf]

fuck that, i dont care, fuck you if you dont want to read, sry i didnt go out of my way to proofread or organize shit. the subject line should prepare you for this. take it as is. if you want to respond to something, great. i dont care about how i said it. plz go out of your way to think of a clever reply, but say nothing constructive.

Gah, I were about to do it to your whole post, but after this I can't continue.

Be honest with us man, have you read your entire post? I doubt it.

[Ward]

That's the sort of replies you'd expect from this lame, inept trench wars community that would rather correct and poke fun at your grammar than see the actual logic behind it. I agree with many things that you said. I also believe that staff are trying to improve the game internally rather than externally, by increasing the rate of answering ?help calls and whatnot. Unfortunately, that's not going to work. They should be more focused on attracting people outside the game rather than trying to keep the players that already play TW. All the TWD, TWL, Events, Pub arenas are pointless to improve till you utilize the time to get people to actually play this.

I think what he is trying ..

Dont worry guys, Your friendly next door superhero israeli f15-i ace is here to translate .

Translation :
Blabla bla bla bla bla (bubble bubble) publicize the game more .

By the way even though I am banned and rebanned and rebanned again .
I am gonna do somthing completly unlogical and bring over 100 new players to the game or even more .
And Im even going to act like the real me, which is the opposite of what some of you think i am .

So i suggest you all and do what you can like me to bring new people to this game .
I figure its time after over 5 years of playing to bring some outside help .
By the way you would be surprised on how many people that you know which play the game for some time now, was brought to it by yours truly .

Since chao became <ER> and left_eye <ER> got re-hired, there should be no complaining about the hosting! they host and they host alot! the only thing we need is another <ER> for the other timezone, like in the morning and afternoon then nothing gets hosted. I suggest.. well.. ME B) nah j/k but we could use an <ER> that host during the other timezone.

I didn't read your whole text because I scrollew down and saw how much more I had to read and I just gave up. I also read something about tw.org and twd have to like flavor in? They are making a new tw.org website in case you didn't know. I saw a preview of the site and it looks great! and twd-ish
