[Jones]

Javelin Dueling: Freq 1 vs. Freq 2
Jones> cap

Lagua> wanna bet?

Lagua> I got a steady 120
Austin assigned as captain for Freq 1
Temp Name> yeah, 120% ploss
Abos assigned as captain for Freq 2
Freq 1, pick a player
Lagua> add me plz
Jones> sigh why are there only newbies that get cap even tho they arent requesting it

some of you lazy coders make a captains queue to the bots in javduel, base and wbduel, it's kinda ridiculous that the arena needs to die before a staffer starts it and/or people requesting cap never gets it.

80% of the people in there just suicide anyway, so the competition is poor vs. twd, yet obviously it is a good way to prac for twd/twl, even if the captains are "newbies" (this covers 96% of the players anyway) they still get a chance to prac in an arena that is way better than ?go javs. and more importantly maybe some new players get to play once in a while

pretty sure it was lagua or something that had the bot powers, so he must have ignored you and gave it to someone else

basically its a popularity thing

whoever hosted the game should be talked to is all it is, have a staffer tell them to make the games fair and give people caps if they ask for it

[Dameon Angell]

Some people say it in PM first, happens.

[megaman89]

give me some powers, I will fix this

[Emaho]

You can't please everybody at the same time.

Yup that happens alot..the sec you start a game you get pms saying "cap".

[Galaxy Turbo]

Depends on how fast you said Cap Jones, if it wasn't as fast as the two PMers then obviously you won't get it, but I think if you managed to say it the minute it said "Javelin Dueling: Freq 1 vs. Freq 2", then something might be wrong there.

Maybe people need to just start only accepting cap requests in public messages instead of private.

Newbies get to cap because once they see people shouting "Cap!", then obviously they've gotta try that the next time a game starts...But when that happens you usually have people say "...What now?" and can't add.

I think javduel and baseelim should be used more, hence why I still stand by killing ?go javs, Javelin's already have enough places they're dominating, tourny and such, so it's pretty much spreading the population needlessly for several practice arenas that are just dividing people, what's the point?

</rant>

[Jones]

you don't think i'm not aware that people can pm? not even second went by before i put out 'cap' in public after the message.

three times in a row this has happened, enough to start a thread.

1.) Even if we wanted to make wbduel, javduel, and base automated we probably would not be allowed.
2.) Don't speak in ignorance. You have no idea what goes on behind the scenes.

this is worse than whining about being spawned in pub.

1. i never get this part
2. after having an off-season for about 1+ year back in season 8ish i was quick to ask why the bots aren't done yet. the answer was "don't you want a all statistics to work" etc... 3 years later, no statistics work

[Soilderz]

In that matther Austin was the guy with bot powers, so i guess he capped himself and his friend, hes in abos chat i think i can recall.

[Noah]

Remove botpowers from those who aren't in staff. This clears up any confusion as to who is actually starting the games. How the hell can you pm the person operating the bot when it's another random baser with little reputation?

If we need to hire more ZH's to do this, then do so.
